    Delicious food presented with friendly efficiency. The Thali was absolutely delicious and the cocktails ( all non-alcoholic) normally only found on a tropical island

    A very cute restaurant with many kinds of dishes. I took my friend to celebrate her birthday and she enjoyed the food. The service was impeccable even when the restaurant got crowded. Will definitely go again.

    I’ve been here a few times. Both times, the food has been amazing. I get the butter paneer and it’s spicy, which is what I’m looking for. I will eat here again.

    I have been 4 times to this restaurant in the past 3 months. It has been one of my best restaurant discoveries this year. The food is full of flavourC the service quite friendly, and the combination of both cuisine are amazing. To pair with it, there are some sauces on the table( so chutneys) that go amazingly inside of the food. We love our good glass of wine with our food so we always bring our wine bottle with us since there is absolutely no alcohol in this restaurant, so just think about bringing your own alcohol if going here. Just goC you won’t be disappointed

    The cuisine is in another house so they opened the door every minute with cold wind arriving directly at our table. With freezing winter temperature it’s unpleasant. The food is NOT Lebanese

    Third time here! Everything is so flavourful, the mix of cuisine Larry themselves perfectly. No alcohol is served so if you like your beer or glass of wine don’t hesitate to bring your own, you pay 1€ for a beer and 3€ for the right of wine. Portions are very nice, it allows you to try a bit of everything. We will be back soon for sure

    Starter and main course were served in the same time. The waiter told it was because the cook made a mistake. Most of the food was cold. When I complained about it, the waiter told the moussaka should be cold. The cold meat was picked from my plate to warm it. After a few minutes it was thrown on my plate again.

    The staff were not welcoming because we asked to change our table !! and the food took 1 hour!! the tables are too small for a dinner and the chairs are not comfortable. But the food was really good.

    The food was excellent, this is the first bring your own booze place I’ve seen in Paris! Had I known!! The place is super cute and the staff was nice. They got confused about our reservation and sort of told me off so tell them up front if you book.
