Customer Reviews
I have known this family and worked with this restaurant for over 20 years, and every single time I am here, it truly feels like a blessing. This is a Lebanese, family-owned restaurant where the love, care, and heart are felt in everything they do. The food is absolutely delicious, made with soul, tradition, and passion. Beyond the food, what truly sets this place apart is the people. Everyone who works here is kind, caring, and genuinely loving. The energy is warm, welcoming, and uplifting. As a performer, I have done many events here, and they always take incredible care of me and everyone involved. Their events are high-vibe, beautifully organized, and extremely professional. The owner and staff go above and beyond, whether it’s catering, private parties, or regular service, everythin
Sadly, not a good ambassador for Lebanese cuisine. I grew up on middle eastern food, so was excited when a friend asked for an introduction. We found this restaurant on Google Maps, the menu looked promising and the reviews were favorable. We walked in and the restaurant was pretty empty during dinner time. That should have been a warning sign. But the server was so nice and welcoming that we decided to stay and ordered a selection of items so that my friend could try more things. And what a disappointment that was... The hummus was bitter, the kebbeh (that's how the restaurant spells it) was cold inside (probably reheated in a microwave), the pita bread must have come from a plastic bag, the kafta was too dense, the meat shawerma (again, restaurant spelling) tasted like reheated meat i
This was my first visit with friend of mine. Appetizer came out with so freshness and nice flavors, enough making my mouse watering. Main disk, especially chicken and lamp, was so juicy, soft and crunch surface. How come these different stuff harmonized well together. Awesome place to come back!
This place is the real deal. Authentic Lebanese, family-owned, and you can taste it in every bite. Tannourine doesn’t miss. Great place for family events and celebrations, I have had multiple of these events here and they have all been professional and very good. The food is Grade A perfectly seasoned, balanced, and clearly made by people who know exactly what they’re doing. The kafta is rich, herby, and cooked just right. And the chicken tawook? Unbelievably juicy. Like, how-is-it-still-this-juicy juicy. Every time. Beyond the food, the vibe is pure heart. You feel that tight-knit Lebanese family energy the moment you walk in welcoming, proud, and genuinely happy to feed people good food. Nothing feels rushed, nothing feels corporate. Just honest cooking and hospitality done right. If
I really love this restaurant, not only for their live music and belly dance, but also for the amazing food. I wish this restaurant was closer to where I live, but it’s worth the drive. I love going here for their beautiful dance parties, live music and food. When I go there, I feel like I’ve been transported into a different time, which I love. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want an authentic Middle Eastern restaurant, with delicious food and a beautiful atmosphere and ambience .
