    Perfectly presented authentic traditional Lebanese food, arak & coffee, with some enhancing modern twists. Staff are friendly & competent, even guessing which dessert we would like. Lovely peaceful setting at Walsh Bay. So easy to lose track of time & run the risk of being late for a performance (several theatres nearby). Would have preferred that the background music be traditional & that the table light not be an electric imitation candle. Have been several times & will be returning. Thank you, Tony!

    The waiters were incredible and very helpful! When we first arrived to the restaurant they couldn't find our booking, we were still seated but they very generously gave us free drinks in return. The food was great, and the $50 set menu was very filling and great value!
