| - This may be the best Mediterranean (Lebanese) food in town. Sometimes the simple things make the difference between good food and great food. Khoury's hits all the marks for great food.
Fresh, top-notch ingredients stand out in every dish. Tabbouleh is made as it should be made, with abundant parsley, mint and lemon with just enough bulgur to soak up the tangy, refreshing dressing. The tabbouleh & hummus are worth the trip alone, as are the fresh from the oven pillows of pita served with olive oil & za'atar for dipping.
You won't go wrong with any of the beef or lamb dishes, but vegetarians won't feel like second class citizens here. The extensive menu has everything one expects to find in a Mediterranean restaurant plus a few wonderful surprises. Everything is profoundly fresh, tasty and nicely presented.
Service might be an issue during prime time dining hours, but on a recent late Friday afternoon, our server, Irvin was right on point. But when food is as outstanding as it is here, don't worry about it. The food is THAT good.
