Also, the restaurant was pratically empty and the staff was mostly standing by idly, which made the experience quite uncomfortable. I would not recommend it.

Food and service was great for us, but I suspect that those arriving after us might have had slow service due to pressure in the kitchen. Food typical east Mediterranean. Lebanese wines. Half bottles available. Good value €67 for 2 incl half bottle.

I had no problem with the freshness just the amount of time it was left on the pass, taken outdoors to arrive to us. A very unhappy food experience which was such a shame on our weekend away.

There 's a mixture of Lebanese and Armenian dishes: M had the vegetarian platter, B the 'Classic Menu ' at 20E. Washed it down with a bottle of Ksara Lebanese wine. Everything was excellent: tabouleh particularly good, as was the vege red pepper puree, nice dips, and meat skewers though not enormous were plenty for me. Total damage less than 60E. Very pleasant indoor ambience and a helpful (English speaking) waiter. Recommended.
