Bad, inattentive service and shocking seating area. There are holes in the couches and random furniture lying all over the place. The only saving grace is that the shisha is good value for money here. But I wouldn't stay for very long for the afore mentioned reasons

My friends and I went for the shisha and unfortunately we were very disappointed. The Shisha was too strong and burnt our throats, as we struggled to pull hard to make atleast a bit of smoke come out. The service was very friendly and fast but the shisha can be better.

Disappointed. Got up to use the restroom and when arriving back at the table all the drinks and shisha pipe I ordered was cleared up and there were other people sitting there. What a joke.

if you like urban atmospheres, dance hall and Caribbean type night club on Friday night the place can be nice but apart from the menu I didn't feel a Lebanese atmosphere at all... the photos must be old. Otherwise for me the service was ok.

Doesn't have the kinda vibe that I like, but the environment is quite friendly and chilled. There's nothing unique about this place, it's like any other normal night club that's in an urban area

It's a peaceful place to do a hubbly session during the day, and a vibe at night. Would definitely recommend for students, penny pinchers or anyone on a tight budget. There are a ton of options on the drinks menu and the food is amazing. It's more about the atmosphere than it is about the aesthetics, so this isn't the ideal place for taking cute pics for the gram.

Complete disrespect for the neighbourhood to which they are operating. Loud bass all weekend and on Sunday evenings. Shameful towards residents that live nearby. Multiple police raids and police noise disturbance complaints. The community does NOT support you.

Its so warm inside and the music was great although at some point it was boring because the dj played maskandi. There's enough space for dancing, and the toilets are clean. The staff is quite helpful

An excellent addition to dining in Melville. Authentic Middle Eastern food with loads of flavour. The ambiance is especially thrilling with the lounge and coffee coals adding to the experience.

Staff were very friendly. Seating is nice. Food not so great. The hummus was clearly made with peanut butter and not tahini. Arabic bread should ALWAYS be HOT when served, and we got it lukewarm. So were all of the hot dishes! Nothing came to us hot! Everything was lukewarm. The tabboule was made with regular parsley and not flat-leaved parsley. The falafels tasted like instant packets that you buy from the supermarket and then make at home. Not made from scratch. If you don't know Lebanese food, you might like it here, as my sister and her husband did. I recommend the following dishes: fatoush, zaatar manouch, lebnah manouch. All the hot dishes were not hot so don't even bother! I would have given this place 2 stars if it wasn't for the good service we received.
