Customer Review Summary
Diners most frequently single out the live performances, with multiple reviews praising the singer Jade for elevating the atmosphere during evenings with jazz or live music. The food earns consistent acclaim, with the Ramadan menu, Hommos Beiruty, and wine noted as standouts, and many describe the setting as beautiful, spacious, and well-decorated. Service is repeatedly called friendly and attentive, with several highlighting staff going above and beyond for large groups. A recurring caveat centers on the chicken shawarma, described by one diner as dry and overpriced, with sides like chips also criticized as poor. One reviewer contrasts the experience unfavorably to a local Lebanese cafe. Several also emphasize the venue’s suitability for celebrations and group dining.

I’ve been several times and it just seems to get better & better, apart from the delicious food the ambiance is so good with the decor been so unusual. recently i went for dinner with a friend and to add to the evening there was also a girl think her name is jade? performing , She added to the evening making it so special. Can’t recommend highly enough”

How this listing is sourced
- Where the data comes from
- Name, address, hours, contact details, amenities, ratings and review counts come from the business's publicly available profile data — not from the owner and not from paid submissions.
- How it stays current
- Every listing is re-checked on a recurring crawl, and anything reported as wrong is corrected at the source rather than patched on the page.
- How it is ranked
- Placement is never sold. Every business on the page is ordered and compared using the same public signals, so an owner cannot pay to move up.
