Genial vibes and good cooking at bargain prices define this cozy storefront. Reliable Lebanese standards—lemony hummus, crunchy falafel, smoky baba ghannouj, and char-grilled kebabs—all make for satisfying dining. Free soup and dessert included. Lebanese arak (an anise-flavored spirit) and wine add to the authenticity.
