    WOW! WOW! WOW! This Lebanese restaurant/bakery opens at 8 am for early risers located in Little Arabia. *For newbies, pay attention to how you ENTER and EXIT the car park. As you enter Forn Al Hara establishment the aroma of flat breads in the pizza oven sweeps over you as you’re greeted by the owner with a huge smile. I knew immediately that whatever was cooking/baking it was gonna be delicious. Tbh, all I wanted was baklava and coffee but was introduced to Arabic tea with FRESH mint and cheese kunefe right out of the oven with pistachios and honey. OH M GEE! As I’m thinking to myself, why stop now… I ordered the cheese pastry/pie. Killed it! I was impressed with the kindness the owner exhibited and how the “regular”customer’s help me order. After I finished my breakfast, my taste buds were still firing so to keep it going I walked away with an assortment of baklava and other pastries to share with family and friends. THANK YOU Forn Al Hara, team, and regular customers for an incredible eating experience 🫶🏼

    WOW Very delicious pies. We tried multiple pies and all tasted great. The owner is very generous. We loved the pies to the point we decided to take with us a couple of dozens to the Airbnb.

    The wait to get our food took a little over an hour. But the food was really good. I recommend look over the menu and call ahead before you come. This is a nice little spot and great place for family. 100% recommend.

    I went with a friend who lives locally in the area. He raved about it and it didn’t disappoint. We had a sampling of the veggie, beef and lamb flatbreads as well as a couple of desserts and it was worth the wait. The owner is the most kind man and does a lot of the baking(putting in the stone oven) himself. We also tried the mint yogurt milk drink and it was like a savory salt lassi. Get there earlier if you don’t want to wait in a long line.

    THAT WAS SOMETHING HEAVENLY!!!! The food was genuinely delicious. The service was very good. And the atmosphere really takes arabs back home. Me, my wife and my daughter had four manaesh. One with sausage and cheese, one with cheese and labnah, one wtih labnah and zatar, and one with beef and cheese. We also had tea with milk. We were pretty much full and there was leftover that we took to go.

    I've brought different friends and family here, there's something for everyone. Family owned; the owners provide a welcoming atmosphere, inclusive, kind & friendly people. We loved the manaeesh with zatar & cheese, so we took home a dozen minis! Great combo for someone new to try. Spinach fatayer is delicious, great flavor. The pizzas are top heavy, thin crust, and soooo much cheese!! We tried the chicken and the veggie (pic attached). Bring your appetite. We will definitely be back.

    I’m so glad that I took my Family to this little corner. We ordered several small traditional flatbreads but we came nowhere close to trying them all. You probably need to come here a dozen times to try everything. Zatar, safiha and all that was great. Their pastries were so good we got 3 boxes of them to go.

    Yummy delicious Arabian breakfast! Lahem bel Ajeen is very special. The minis are tasty as well. Expect a long wait, at least on weekends. But it’s worth it.

    Utterly delicious. Unique and tasty flavors for a fair price. The owner was kind and genuinely interested in us trying the wonderful flavors from his menu. I would go again in a heartbeat. The cheese boats were our favorite the Zatar was also awesome. Definitely try a few small ones and then go big with a large one! So good!

    Just discovered this place by delivering some food from Grubhub. I checked it out with my friends and ordered their zatar, veggie flatbread, mini cheese boat, and baklava. The owner was so nice- he gave us a free box of desserts and one free yogurt veggie flatbread. I definitely spread the word via social media and on Discord for my classmates. 20/10!! Zatar was herby and flavorful. Cheese boat was so good- with fresh mozzarella. Makes me realize American pizza is not good for your stomach at all and if you want authenticity and healthy foods, go to Forn Al Hara. Vegan and vegetarian friendly!!

    The place smells fantastic and the food is somehow even better. The meal for the price I find to be super great. Food is filled with spice and flavor with perfectly crisp bread. Definitely looking to come back

    We went on a late weekday afternoon/early evening. The storefront was empty, and we weren’t sure if they were closed or not. Once we walked in though, we were greeted by a friendly employee and placed our order of three manaeesh: zaatar, cheese with zaatar, and lahem bel ajeen (plus a Vimto soda). The three manaeesh were delicious and the price was fair. Our favorite was probably the lahem bel ajeen, but they were all great. Included was a nice bowl of pickles, olives, and lemon wedges. This place shouldn’t be empty!

    We tried this place for the very first time today, and we could not rave any more about it. The pastries were so delicious and the quality was absolutely amazing. All of this paired with the home-y atmosphere and the kindest service, came together to make the perfect experience. Can’t wait to go back!!

    The pastries are outstanding. The best for me is the mini managish is 5/5. I think they can improve the service. They were slow in general. The shop appeared clean. The price is ok. Toilet was available however, I did not check it.

    It lacks customer service, bad services, most of the salty food is fresh, it lacks a lot of hygiene, its equipment is old

    I was disappointed of my visit yesterday. This place used to be so popular among Arabs a few years back. (I took 1 year Arabic so have many friends who are from Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Syria ,etc.) went yesterday and it’s mostly running by Spanish speaking workers. The owner might still be an Arab but I didn’t hear people speak Arabic. So just a heads up for other people who wants to go to this place. The pastry doesn’t look fresh. I was craving for Kunafeh so I walked out and went somewhere else.
