I loved, loved, loved the food here! Best Baba Ganoush I've had in any Middle Eastern restaurant- the flavor was so fresh and vibrant! The portions are large and left overs can be brought home for another meal! We had the Chicken Shawarma, Fatoush salad and Artichoke salad, as well as the best homemade iced tea which had a lovely sweet flavor that was not too sweet. The prices are very reasonable, the service excellent and the food comes out fast! It is a small establishment so plan to arrive before peak times to get a seat! The food is flavorful and very memorable!

The food here is really delicious! It's one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Pittsburgh. The prices are amazing as well. Yesterday, I tried their spanakopita, rice pudding, and kunefe. All of it was truly delicious. Their spanakopita was excellent. It was crispy, filled with loads of spinach, a nice amount of cheese, and the portion was great. I also appreciate that they weren't too buttery (although they did clearly did butter up the filo, it just wasn't excessive). You get 2 of them for just $6. If you order for takeout or delivery, heat them up after you receive them. The warm spanakopita make for a fantastic light dinner or snack. The kunefe was somewhat untraditional, but I still loved it. Normally, kunefe is made with a cheese. Here, there is no cheese, but you still get the sugar syrup, shredded philo, and what seems like nuts. It was also delicious and maybe even better than some of the traditional versions I've tried. Crunchy, nutty, and sweet. For just $3! The rice pudding was also tasty and comforting. They pack a lot of the pudding into a container! It was very heavy when I picked it up. The flavor and consistency was perfect: lightly sweet and lusciously creamy. Such a great take on a classic. Also for just $3 (and an incredible portion)! Overall, this is a great place to get some snacks or a light dinner. I'd like to come back and try some of their meats. But, their desserts are delicious and spanakopita is incredible. Prices are great and so are portions.

Great food! Pilaf, sleek, spinach pie, & baklava we’re all fantastic - everything we ordered was delicious. Great place to try new things. A perfect place for lunch or a BYOB dinner. The chef cooked and waited on us. Very nice and friendly guy. Will definitely come back

Takeout ordered - Vegetarian Mazza, Pita, Kanafee, Bakalava. Good spread. Adequate quantity. Tasty. Very friendly and informative lady in the restaurant, and I look forward to an experience dining in the restaurant. Takeout doorway has a step and so not accessible by wheel chair. Not sure if dining area has an accessible entrance.

I enjoyed dining here with a friend on a quiet weekday afternoon. Jolina's offers good table service, and our server took the time to describe the various fare. Our entres were nicely presented and generous portions, each prepared with a masterful blend of spices; authentic Lebanese cuisine. The babaganou and grape leaves are favorites! Platters come with flavorful rice pilaf, salad and your choice of meat or kabobs, or a sampling of all. Each table was adorned with springtime and Easter decorations. There is metered parking on Brookline Boulevard, and it is BYOB, which I will keep in mind for my next visit. I plan to return to try some other menu items. Definitely a find for those who like good middle Easter food!

Amazing! If you love Middle Eastern cuisine, this place is it! Everything is absolutely fresh, tasty, authentic and delicious, not to mention healthy!!!! One of my best friends in Israel told me some of the best restaurants in Israel are actually Syrian-owned and it's a well known secret there and ya know, I think he is right! Service was warm, friendly and welcoming. I only wish they had been playing some music. Syria is, after all, (sorta) the birthplace of music. We can't wait to go back!!! Also, it's BYOB. Go!!!!

I went to heaven last night for dinner. Or at least my mouth did. Every thing tasted wonderful from the first dip into the Baba to the last sip of coffee. This meal took me back to my time in Lebanon and Syria. The place is tiny so you would think it would be a struggle for them but it felt like we were guests in their home. Definitely going back!

Food was good. I especially liked their hummus. Service was very good and friendly. We felt very welcome. Place isn't fancy but I like that. My only issue was the pickled items on my entree overpowered the other foods, every bite of rice was pickley.

Really disappointed The rice of meat grape leaves wasn’t cooked enough! It was very hard Sheesh tawook was anything but sheesh tawook!!it is even flavorless And about the Kibbi!!! I don’t know what to say!!! I’m not going to talk about how it look!!!!! And it was so hard! Felt like you can hit someone with it. The shawarma is below average but comparing with the other dishes, it was the only thing I could eat I only loved the bread they add. And with all the above it is overpriced

Very good. We were craving lamb and they did not disappoint. Delicious, and best lamb price in the area. We got takeout and it was super fast, ready in 15min.

The meat pie may be one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. It’s so simple and so flavorful at the same time! Gyros are out of this world. The baclava is phenomenal. And the lady working is very nice. 10 out of 10.

Highly highly highly recommend this hidden gem in the Brookline area. Super fresh food and tons of options to choose from. Portions are also very good and the service is also top notch. The owners are super friendly and we will be back very soon!!! Support local 24/7 in Pittsburgh
