Delicious Lebanese Food!. This is a great restaurant! We started our evening by trying to go to Tanoreen (at it's new location) but we changed our minds after being told that we had to wait for over an hour for a table even though the restaurant was basically empty. But this disappointing experience forced us to venture out and allowed us to discover this great restaurant.

My friend's Lebanese relative had recommended this place and it was great. It is our new spot! The food was amazing. The eggplant stuffed with meat and rice was delicious and so were the vegetarian appetizers, like the fava beans and red pepper puree with walnuts. All of the food was really fresh and nicely spiced. The servers were pleasant and attentive. They have a good selection of affordable wines and you can also get a cheap carafe of house wine. I am definitely going back and can't wait to try the other dishes.

Where the Lebanese eat Lebanese food!. I must admit, I am very discriminating when it comes to eating Lebanese food at a restaurant. I grew up with a family of phenomenal cooks but Sally's is the ONE exception. Their food is fantastic and the service it wonderful. It is as colse to home as I have ever found (Tripoli's was a HUGE disappointment!) and the dishes are the comfort food I crave. Their stuffed zucchini in yogurt is to die for. My sisterswears by the cabbage. It is the best placeto find the authentic cuisine of Lebanon!!!

Nice on the surface but policies are not. After hearing about this place for years, and finding out that they had a buffet, I decided to check it out. Its a cute place, and the buffet had a small, but nice selection of cold appetizers and soups. Additionally, the buffet comes with a choice of main dish. Not being able to finish my main course, I asked for it to be wrapped. They have a policy that no buffet items may be taken home, which is expected. Anyone who brings a ziplock baggie to an "all you can eat" fest is really slumming.. but one would think that the main course that one is served is not technically a part of the buffet. Wrong. The server claimed that he "did me a favor" by wrapping my food along with my son's (who did not order buffet), but refused to wrap my friends portion, hence she was forced to waste what she ordered. This fact, plus the little typewritten notice in the leather bill holder which informs patrons "If you are paying by credit card, kindly do not leave the tip on the bill" are enough to prevent me from ever coming back to this establishment. The 16.95 per person cost for the buffet was a tad high considered the small variety offered. If all other aspects of my experience were good, price wouldnt have even been a consideration, as it is usually the last thing I look at, but it just wasn't a great dining out venture, and honestly, I have had better middle eastern food than this. Plus, parking in that side of town can be difficult.

An oasis amongst the others!. How else can I describe this fine restaurant and the outstanding service provided by George and his dedicated staff. I have been enjoying the superb food and dining here since my father-in-law Nadim introduced me to all this new cuisine. A warm friendly family atmosphere, personable service and the only place Ill eat Kibbi Nayye (Raw Kibbi) outside of Leila's, my mother-in-law! A simple dish like Fattouch or Tabbouleh are turned into the most delicious salad youll ever have. Their standards are high and proportions are generous. A great place for family gatherings and many good memories.

Authentic Lebanese. I have been coming to this place for years. They have been serving great middle eastern food longer than anyone in the neighborhood. Friendly and family owned. You have to come here with a big group so you can get tons of appetizers. The hummus with lamb is incredible. The mixed grill as a main course is excellent also. It is not as cheap as some of the kebab places around, but for a nice restaurant, the prices are good.
