Food was good but service let it down. It took an hour for our food to arrive, our olives were forgotten and the drinks order was wrong... but being hot hungry parents we had zero energy to care about it.Please don't assume "kids eat for free" promo applies to the kids meal on the menu...it does not (server didn't think telling us was important)... again we were too tired to fuss about it.I would suggest only going if you are not hungry or in a rush. Quite unfortunate considering the quality food.

Best Lebanese food ever, must try

Got really confused as it’s part of the Italian next to it. But the food was delicious (recommend the sweet potato tagine) and if the weather’s good - definitely worth sitting outside.

Arrived to have some lunch and were offered a table. We then sat patiently for 20 minutes and weren't even asked what we would like to drink or offered a menu. Waiting staff didn't seem that busy but were completely oblivious to us, even though they walked past us several times We got up and left. Plenty of choice in Canterbury and cannot abide non existent service. Poor show and staff need to open their eyes and acknowledge the customers who are waiting for service.

Excellent Lebanese food, Friendly staff.

It was not poetry of tastes. Chicken too much grilled, pizza very average. I probably won't be back.

Under new management and the food is even more delicious than before. My husband and I had a lovely time, served by the delightful Emyr, starting with a yummy mezze platter and finishing with a main of saffron rice and various mixed meats. It's quite pricey but definitely worth it, we'll be coming back for sure.

Excellent food, variety and price, timely delivery too. Highly recommended.

Very nice restaurant located in a central position. We went on a Monday night and even then the restaurant was almost full, that's usually a very good sign. Service was prompt and friendly, drinks were the standard affair. We had a sharing starter that felt a little easy as it was half hummus but it was still very tasty and worked well as an appetizer. The mains were simple but very well done, full of flavour. The only thing I would have changed, the mains come with chips as standard which seems a little out of step with the Lebanese theme. Maybe some Moroccan spiced rice would have been better suited? Still, a good meal for 2. Decoration is unique and interesting if a little dark. In terms of cost, although it does not feel over priced, it didn't feel like the best value for money. I would definitely go again just to try something else on the menu!

I’ve never eaten food that was this shocking. By far the worst food I’ve have ever encountered and probably will ever encounter. The food quality was Extremely poor! The taste was diabolical. I strongly advise anyone who’s even thinking of going to this restaurant, please don’t waste your time and look else where. Guaranteed a better meal at McDonald’s.
