We ate here for Magical Dining. It was a great value. A lot of food, almost everything tasted great. I chose the fish of the day, which was wreck with clams over garbanzo beans and black eyed peas. It was very good. My husband said his oxtail with pasta was just ok, not much oxtail flavor, and a little too spicy. I couldn't taste it because I'm allergic to hot peppers. They were very accommodating, and changed my octopus appetizer to eliminate them and added tomatoes. I really appreciated that. The chocolate creme brulee and pistachio cheesecake were fabulous.

Service was excellent, very pleasant and helpful, our waiter suggested a wonderful Lebanese beer , Almaza, and a fine Lebanese red wine, Ksara. We both had kabobs, chicken, beef, and gyro type meat(it was delicious, the chicken was a little dry) the tahini went well with the meat pie appetizer and the chicken, so overall it was excellent.
