Without a doubt, the only way to experience Lebanese cuisine of this quality would be to visit Falafel Freiha or Em Sherif in Beirut. But why bother with the expense and long flight when the same quality food can be enjoyed right here on FM 1960. Drive-up, kick-back and savor the aromatic spices and calming music as you wait for your order. You will not be disappointed.

The waitress was rude from the minute we walked into the restaurant. She acted as though we were an imposition. We ordered 3 cheese dips. There were only enough chips to eat about half of each cheese dip and then they charged $5 for more chips. The fajitas were just okay and the steak in the fajitas was not good.

food and service was great; however, the 18% tip was not fair, we have to order the food at counter, serve our own drinks, pick up the food and then dispose of them, overall out of the 15.00 dollars coupon, we actually got a discount of about 5.00 dollars. also we couldn't use the coupon on specials and have to purchase 22.00 dollars worth of food. we will go back again, but there is no gain on getting the coupon.
