I never had Pita bread like this good! This is a lovely little restaurant near museum plein. There is a cute and comfortable atmosphere is dining room. If you want to dine here make sure you have a reservation. It’s very busy even weeks in advance. This is probably because…. The food is amazing! The fresh pita breads are the best forms of bread I’ve ever had. I asked for a short rib humus plate which they made happily. The meat was very tender and tasty. Also the chicken was very juicy and rich in flavour. The little schnitzels were a bit dry but had amazing sauce to pare. Service was excellent. We were seated immediately upon our arrival and were always treated with respect and courtesy. I definitely recommend dining here to experience this lovely food.

Ordered the chicken hummus and this hummus is the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life. It was so so so creamy, rolls of the tongue so easily. The portion was adequate, and the hummus came with 2 pita breads. Wish i could buy some hummus back home! The food was absolutely stunningly delicious.

Nice restaurant with a variety of Lebanese dishes. The food is of good quality and really tasty. For people from the Middle East, it might feel a bit pricey since this type of food is usually much cheaper back home. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are friendly. Overall, it’s definitely worth a try!
