| - After having read many of the reviews here I figured I would add my opinion and experiences to the list. My wife and I started coming here after we found that with her Las Vegas Athletic Club membership card, we get 15% the bill. We LOVE it. We have eaten here probably 10 or 15 times in the last 6 months.
The pita bread that they bake there is divine. It is soft and flavorful and the oil and spice blend the bring to dip it in is excellent. The hummous is fantastic, especially when they put some chickpeas on top. It is not overly oily or super dry. We also enjoy getting the mezza platter, which is basically a little bit of all their appetizers, and we often each that as dinner for the two of us. The lentil soup is also very good, although getting a cup is pointless, as a bowl is $1 more and is about 3 times bigger. I LOVE kibbi, and get it everytime as an entree, as it is tasty and filling. I have brought a few friends here and all of them have told me they continue to return on a regular basis.
As for slow and rude service that some have mentioned. What restaurant are you going to? Having eaten here around a dozen times, I have never had a rude waitress or unusually slow service. Never. One time I did see a teenage boy back near the kitchen in the restaurant, but I did not see him waiting tables. They do have some items that are decidedly un-Lebanese, like pizza, but most restaurants of this type I have seen often have things for more Americanized palates. I find the portions to be more than adequate and my wife and I usually leave STUFFED for around $35-40 with tip. She often comments that she enjoys the food a great deal because it just tastes "fresh" and feels healthy, calories and such aside. Overall, one of places we frequent the most now, and the fact that it is on Opentable is nice, so I get points just for making reservations.
