Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the waiting staff, with several describing servers who helped first-timers choose dishes and recommended options. Food follows closely, and reviewers name a juicy chicken burger with puffy, slightly crunchy fries, a lemonade with rose syrup that was sour and sweet, and a rich Lebanese-style hot chocolate. Also mentioned are the beautiful decor and the view of the river. One reviewer was pleasantly surprised by the non-spicy choices, and another noted plenty of vegan options. The criticism is narrower. One reviewer found a chicken wrap with chips dry, with too little filling in places, and called the meal with a glass of wine expensive. Another waited some time before their order was taken, though the food then arrived in reasonable time. A diner celebrating a birthday contrasted the visit with other restaurants that rush tables for the next sitting, saying the staff paced service perfectly.

“Great atmosphere: I ate out with view of the rive. It was very nice as was the staff. I had a chicken wrap with chips. I was a bit disappointed: the wrap was a little dry and there was not enough stuffing (in some parts of the wrap) to my taste. I found the meal expensive: chicken wrap with chips and a glass of wine. I paid £30+ Not sure I will go back”

Her service really made the experience even more enjoyable and she went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was lovely too. Thank you, Pariya, for making our visit so nice.”

“Me and my friends had dinner there in July 2026 to celebrate my nephew’s birthday. I simply can’t fault this place, I thought it was a great choice and the food was great, good value, very quick and super tasty. I’d go as far as to say it made my weekend in Reading perfect. Thank U to all the waitresses and chefs at COMPTOIR Lebanais Simply outstanding and my sons loved it too! Carl from London”
