Very affordable.  Friendly service.  Many different kinds of Asian food in one restaurant.  Beware of their appetizer wraps they are bland and disappointing.  Other than that you should be fine.

It was so so.  I’m glad I tried it but I’m not dying to go back.

I love bubble tea culture.  Usually bubble tea places only offer beverages and therefor allow you to bring food from outside.  People usually sit around for hours playing games, hanging out, eating and just enjoying each others company.  This place is fairly new and fairly large and well decorated.  They have normal bubble tea, milkshakes, hot teas and even real fruit ones.  I like the hot teas because they are useful in our crap weather.  I also like the real fruit watermelon and mango.  I’ve been there a few times now.  Once I hung out and had pizza from neighbouring Dominoes and once a group of us had a cupcake party there.  There are lots of great fashion magazines to peruse through.  Good times.

Finally got an opportunity to experience this place.  I’ve driven by at least three separate times to find this place closed.  That’s because their hours don’t fit my lifestyle.  How can I be expected to go to a restaurant before 8pm?  Hello.  Anyways, it was worth the wait.  I love Lebonese food and this place does not disappoint.  Tipu had this platter with rice, a pita, hummus, lamb kabobs, salad w/ feta cheese, fatoosh, and two amazing sauces one salty and lemony and the other spicy.  Allegedly the spicy sauce was not strong enough for Tipu but it was good by me.  I found the lamb a little bland.  The hummus there is really good.  It’s got a kick to it, it’s very flavourful and more intense than any other hummus I’ve had.  I had a beef pita pie with four fatires.  Two of them were beef and one was spinach.  I enjoyed the spinach one the most.  It’s tangy.  Truthfully I ate my order and most of Tipu’s order.  I require more food than the common human being.  I’m not sure why this is but it is.  Anyways, this place also includes stuff you can take home like ingredients, drinks and already made pita bread, sweets including baklava, fatires and Lebonese cheeses.  It’s worth the drive for me but you’ll have to make your own decision.

I tried this place a few weeks ago with good friends. I had a wonderful time. Too often you got to a restaurant for a meal and it takes like an hour to finish because you’re being rushed out to make room for more diners. This experience was engaging and took up around two hours. The food is simple but filling and wonderful. The entertainment/chefs are dazzling. It is expensive but a really nice way to celebrate something special. Ask for the hot sauce. You won’t be disappointed.
