    I loved the food and style. I just wanted a bigger portion. But the taste is very good 💯. The staff are very friendly. The meal in the picture (kofta with rice) costs £10 in may 2023.

    Food was lovely and had a good flavour to it, something different to our usual! Customer service was great. We ordered a chicken shawarma and a mix charcoal grill. The chicken had lovely bbq taste too. Would come again to try other food on the menu.

    Eastern Mediterranean meets its western tip in this lovely place serving a lush selection of Lebanese and Moroccan foods. The boss chef says his wife inspired him half of the menu. It's interesting to find out which half. The Lamb Shank is the best in town. The mezza is full of freshness and the bread is very satisfying. I admire every younger customer who could eat the generous helping of roasted chicken served in gigantic plates. The restaurant entrance is in a quiet courtyard off the High Street. A couple of pots of olive tree could enlighten its atmosphere even more, if they could sustain Coventry winters.

    Went here for a meal for my daughter's birthday. It was on a Sunday for a party of 5. We booked a table as we didn't know if it was going to be busy. The restaurant was empty when we arrived at 1:30. The place looked clean and had decorations on the walls. No alcohol is served onsite.. We ordered a share starter and various mains. The starter came in about 15 mins. Very nice I must say. Followed by the main. Portions were a fare size and tasty. I wouldn't say the food was anything special but it was passable. Music was very loud and not really authentic. Over all it was a good experience. The bill was £80. So not bad on the pocket either. Toilets were ok. Could do with cleaning.. Would recommend.

    I’ve had a few deliveries as gave them a chance to see if it was a one off. Each time the quality was so bad especially with the prices they charge. This time the food was cold and lamb chops over cooked. How do you get away with ripping us off???

    Fantastic! Decided on trying something different on Just Eat and was blown away by the taste, quality and quantity of the food and how it was presented. Highly Recommended. Was so good that there wasn't even time for photos, next time 😉

    Never had Lebanese before so a new experience, a smallish restaurant with a morrocan decor and feel. They don't serve alcohol and don't allow it on the premises which was a little disappointing. A reasonable menu with meat and fish options. Prices very reasonable. Didn't find my meal very flavoursome but some of our party did quite like theirs. Worth a visit but not quite to my taste. Give it a try and make your own mind up. Good location just around the corner from one of the weatherspoons in town centre.

    The mix grill was delicious. Wasn’t dry like many other places. Tagine however, was very poor. Would go back and get the mixed grill

    The Lebanese food there was authentic, though not fresh. The tables were sticky and dirty. Good value for money and many nice starters. Would definitely go there again.

    Ordered grill mix. Absolutely tasty and reminds me the time back in Marrakesh. The young man who served us is really polite and gentle. Worth the visit.

    Ordered Lamb tagine and bread for friday dinner from this Lebanese style restaurant. Honestly,I had some high expectations from this popular Moroccan dish which didn't met fully tbh.I was trying this dish for the first time and the taste was little Sweet and tangy. Bread was traditional roti (bread) served in Morocco.Would have to try some more dishes from the menu to make my review a complete one.Its a tentative 4.Price for the lamb tagine is 12.9£,so it's not cheap by any means.Lamb meat was cooked well and some vegetables are also in the gravy along with few pieces of semi dry plum, pieces of dry fruits.Portion is enough for one person.

    The food was great, love the hummus, the lamb was cooked perfectly, and the chicken shawarma is super tender. Do bring some cash, since they only accept cash payment. Cash machine located in front of the alley.

    Amazing food, very tasty and fresh! Quality meat and very good price as well! Will definitely come back! And don’t forget to bring cash as they only accept cash.

    Just had a fantastic time there, we came with my daughter and with a friend for a meal and chat, could not wish a better place for it. We had starters as falafel, cheese rolls and moussaka and and for main we all had a chicken shish tavouk with rice and fries and soft drinks as they don’t serve an alcohol. All came fresh quickly and was very tasty. Also we finished a meal with Moroccan green tea which was lovely. Really liked the decor and nice middle eastern music played on background. Staff was friendly and attentive, we will come back again.

    My favourite restaurant in the city! We went recently and ordered 5 starters, 3 baskets of bread, 2 mains, a dessert platter and 4 drinks, which only came to £60! The portions are so generous and the decor and music is lovely. The staff are wonderful, and helped us find all the vegan options available. We will definitely be back again soon!

    Easily one of the best places in Coventry for good Middle Eastern food! Amazing customer service and the Server brother was very helpful and advised of the best on the menu. Great delicious food and adequate quantity. Had Falafels, Mixed grill and Kunafa to top it. Highly recommend and looking forward to the next visit! 😀

    Great food! Excellent houmous and tagine. I had three skewers which were also lovely. Restaurant was a bit cold. No alcohol served (which keeps the bill down). And you need to pay with cash. But I thoroughly recommend it.
