The food and service has always been wonderful. The owner is charming.
Lots of treats, savoury and sweet, for those who have a “I don’t what that is … I try one” attitude to lunch. I have never been disappointed.
Go.
I also ordered the dish of the day for my evening meal. Always incredibly delicious and healthy, great value too
I had such a lovely welcome and the place was bright, airy and completely spotlessly clean.
See you soon 😊
During my three years of studying in Oxford, I visited this place many times, and it has always been a reliable option for a good meal.
Overall, it is a place I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for good Lebanese food at a fair price.
