| - Very hard to put into words the impressiveness of this incredible culinary establishment. While much of today's chef-owned restaurant vanguard chases the latest trends in hipsterized comfort foods, Byblos quietly works away harnessing and perfecting the limitless scents, flavors and textures of the Mediterranean. The result is a mesmerizing blend of creativity and authenticity. Cardamom, honey, pistachio, fenugreek, paprika and preserved lemon grace everything from your Manhattan to your vegetable sides to your desserts, creating an amazing depth of flavor to each item that will have you planning your next trip before your main course arrives. Entrees are executed to perfection, and the service is flawless: our waiter spoke with the knowledge of a seasoned chef, confidently explaining the intricacies of dish preparation and elaborating on the flavor and texture combinations.
In a city that has no shortage of "wow" factor, Byblos is one more notch to add to your belt. Worth every penny or more, and if you happen to be traveling on the US dollar, one of the best big city culinary experiences for the price you'll ever have.
