New flavors and recipes are often brought into the kitchen. All cooks on staff are encouraged to brainstorm and eat with the executive chef, Peter Petro. This collaborative process is the foundation of their culinary art. Encouraging and fostering new ideas with seasonal produce, meats and spices fosters the fun and unique dining experience they so strongly emulate.

Byblos Café, originally a Mediterranean market, has been a staple in the orange circle since the 50’s. It was sold to Adel and Zalfa Mahshi in 1989. The family run business became a favorite in the town for Lebanese cuisine. Many locals loyally frequented the spot for their famous Turkish coffee. In 2022, Daily Dose Hospitality, the crew that also runs Bosscat Kitchen & Libations, purchased the business from the family. While Adel and Zalfa had the opportunity to retire, their son, Tim, joined the team alongside Pedram Yazarlou as operating partners. They have transitioned the cuisine to a Mediterranean fusion style with influences from Greece, Turkey, Iran, Lebanon, & Jordan.

Smoqued California Barbeque takes the traditionally southern practice of barbecue and gives it a west coast twist. The interior of the restaurant looks like any smokehouse one might find deep in Texas or up in Memphis. The whole establishment has a certain rustic and laid back charm that is easy to appreciate. In addition to serving up delicious barbecue, Smoqued is dedicated to serving the best in local craft brews. At any given time, there are a dozen local brewers being represented on the wall of taps. One of the best ways to start a meal here is with the Smoqued pork nachos with shoestring fries, mac sauce, mixed cheese, onions, tomato, jalapenos, chives and house BBQ sauce. All of the entrées are served as platters with the guest's choice of two sides. Possible proteins include beef brisket, pulled pork, pork belly, smoked chicken and smoked St. Louis ribs.

Great authentic Italian food options to choose from. Service was amazing. I requested a desert with a lit candle for my partners birthday and they gave us the desert on the house. 10/10 will come again.

We arrived early for our mid-afternoon reservation on New Year's Day. The food was fresh and excellent. I particularity enjoyed the fish tacos and my wife liked her salmon. The staff were friendly and there is plenty of nearby street parking adjacent to the restaurant.

The restaurant was moderately busy. Our server was less than attentive, I think he had tables outside and we were seated inside. Our food took an hour to get to us and some people in our party had less than hot food. Disappointing since it tastes really good. We weren’t helped very often so we didn’t get a chance to order a second round of drinks. This may be a one off but it was less than stellar

Very good. We hadn’t been back for awhile but we’re excited to try some of the new menu items. We each started with the French onion soup which was delicious. My husband had the mussels and I had the lobster roll. Both were great. That and a couple do craft brews and it was a great evening out.
