Great Middle Eastern Gem

What a treat! First, they brought out a pita the size of a large pizza and unfortunately, I filled up on it. My husband ordered a Lebanese salad sans feta, which was massive. It had a nice dressing that was light. They left off the olives too which was a bummer. We both ordered a Vegetarian Mezza which had Hummus, tahini, tabouli, falafel, small spinach pie, and veggie grape leaves. The tabouli was incredible and the falafel was a bit dry. But everything else was mind blowing. There was so much food, we needed another table. And we have plenty of leftovers (including half a pita!) We really enjoyed this meal and highly recommend.

Absolutely incredible - 5 STARS

We enjoyed the Arabian Breeze Mezza, the Veggie Kabob plate, baklava and a whole lot of fresh pita bread. We were in awe of the flavors of everything. Nicholas was one of our favorite spots and actually catered our wedding before we were vegan but I can honestly say the meal we had most recently was our favorite of all time.

Perfect Pita and Satisfying Sampler

I ordered Lebanese Lentil Soup and Arabian Breeze Mezza. The delicious soup is served with pita chips. The Arabian Breeze Mezza includes hummus, muhamra, caramelized onions mixed with tahini, majadra, fried cauliflower, and falafel. It's a great way to try multiple items. Everything was flavorful, but not spicy.

Tip: Don't order too much because they serve fresh, hot pita bread for free!

Pros: free, fresh, hot pita bread, quick service

Outstanding Flavors!!

Some fantastic vegan options! Really wholesome and high quality ingredients, unique and very flavorful dishes. The red pepper hummus was fantastic-- so smooth and packed with flavor. We also loved the vegan mezza and the veggie kebabs! So many delightful flavors and everything was prepared to perfection! However I would love to see a separate menu for vegans, just because it makes ordering easier for us.

Plant-based is the fastest culinary trend of our time and I help restaurants be prepared for this demand and thrive in the process. Thank you for reading and I hope I can be of help!

Great

Went there tonight. The vegan "VGN" choices are clearer on the online menu but still listed on the menu in the restaurant as well. Asked if the free bread is vegan and they said yes. I ordered tabbuli, baba ganoush, and m'jadara and all were excellent & very fresh tasting. Great, quick service. I wasn't super hungry and had enough left overs for lunch tomorrow. Not very many choices in Gresham, will definitely be back!

Great Lebenese for Veggies and Vegans Alike

Have only eaten here once, but look forward to going back again for sure. My friend and I ate every vegan option we could find, and there were many clearly labeled on the menu. The food is rich, authentic and delicious and the setting and service really set the mood. The fare is pretty standard, but there is nothing standard about the depth of flavours, really excellent vegetarian food here.

Pros: Many Vegan Options, Vegan Options Clearly Labeled, Atmosphere was Really Nice

Cons: Perhaps a Little Pricey
