| - My daughter and her boyfriend were in town and after reading the New York Times article on Soufis, I wanted to take them there to try it as we are Lebanese and appreciate great Mideast food. The environment is more cafeteria style. There's only room for maybe 10 people in there. But that's fine, as long as the food is worth it. I asked the woman behind the counter if the eggplant flatbread Manaeesh was big enough for a meal and she said yes. All three of us ordered one each (different types), but when we got them, my eyes nearly fell out of my head - it was barely enough for an appetizer. Three of them cost about $24. We were so hungry after that we ordered the dessert, which was good but certainly, again, not worth the 18 extra dollars. The food was good - not amazing. On top of it, later when we went home and said to each other what a ripoff the price of the food was, we discovered that using Yelp, we could have gotten free coffee. Of course no one in the restaurant told us that. Overall, I am all about supporting newcomers to Canada, but if I'm ripped off, I don't care where you're from.
