Going to Beyrouth was like going home. I am from a mixed household; British and Cypriot. My uncle is Lebanese and the food is very similar to the food from Cyprus. I was so happy - overwhelmed with emotion actually- by the food in Beyrouth. All the flavours brought back happy memories and I can attest to the authenticity of the food.We ordered a felafel wrap and a lamb shwarma. We also had a manoche with half zaatar and half cheese. The wraps were both really flavourful. The felafel reminded me of my auntie's ones and the yoghurt dressing was perfect against the soft felafel and crisp lettuce. The lamb was really tender and delicious - well seasoned and spiced. The manouche (flat bread) was really great. Actually the bread on each of the dishes was the perfect density, thickness and texture. Just brilliant. The cheese had a nice tang to it and the zaatar was the taste bomb it should be.The guys that run the place are really friendly and very helpful, and they will help you choose exactly what you would like. It is a really good, authentic taste of the Lebanon at a pocket friendly price. A must go place in Central.

There was a sizeable Lebanese expat community near Rutgers, which I attended for a ridiculous 7 years. I came to think of Lebanese as really the standard by which other middle eastern foods are to be judged. I always wanted to go here, having heard it was pretty good, and last weekend I got the opportunity.We actually tried to go to Assaf, which is the place next door owned by the same people, serving the same food, but they apparently aren't open Sunday. I had nothing against eating in the cafe though. My wife and I both got the set lunch, which comes with salad, hummus or baba ganoush, a soft drink, and your choice of sandwich.If you're from America, and you're my age (I know, this is a very small demographic) you remember the old PSA, "Don't Drown Your Food": "Don't drown your food/ in mayo, salt, ketchup or goo/ It's no fun to eat what you can't even see/ So don't drown your food!" I go light on the sald dressing, Beyrouth does not. I succeeded in rescuing a few veggies, but most were lost, and most weren't worth saving. Poor, D.Hummus in Hong Kong is usually of very low quality. Any brand you get at the supermarket is pretty bad, and the stuff at restaurants is not what I tend to think of as "restaurant quality" hummus (i.e. amazing, hummus's natural state). The stuff here was good. Nice and smooth, not too oily, maybe a little too much lemon. Not as tasty as the best, but nice. Good, B+Baba Ganoush: cold, soggy, grey eggplant were never my thing. They're unappetizing to look at and unappetizing to eat. Clammy with a disgusting texture. I'm going to give this a pass because I'm too biased to objectively review it.Chicken Taouk Sandwich: You know this group of spices-- cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, cloves, cardamom? I don't really know what ties them together; they're tropical, they're "warm," they go well with desserts. Anyway, I don't know which of them was in the marinade for the taouk, but it was fairly overwhelming. The chicken was grilled nicely-- no problems there. It's just I would not ever order this again. Maybe people are into the strong dessert spices on their chicken kabobs-- I'm not. OK, C-Falafel: speaking of overwhelming flavors, this was the garlickiest falafel I've ever had. I'm a big garlic fan, but I think there might have been more garlic than chickpeas in these patties. They were nice and big, a little bit overly crunchy on the outside, and reasonably moist on the inside, which cannot be said for all falafel. I'd have it again perhaps, if I was in a very garlicky mood, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else. OK, C+I think the set meal is really too much food. The sandwiches are OK, but nothing I could see myself craving. The menu has a bunch of things and I could see myself coming back. Overall: OK, C+

见在这网站获颇多好评, 专程去试试. 结果不得不登记成为这儿的会员写一下食评...是次点了羊肉卷(lamb kebab)及碎肉烧烤卷(minced BBQ kebab); 都配了2种酱混合, 乳酪薄菏(yogurt & mint sauce) + 蒜蓉 (garlic sauce)每份$65. 好贵, 不像前人所说的好大份, 只是普通size, 卷起来的直径约2”.2款味道都极差. 肉好”鞋”, 好干, 只食到烧焦味. 羊肉好膻. 感觉像在吃炭. 唔会再帮衬.

I got the chicken kebab and hommos here - both were delicious. The pita bread is also excellent, a bit fluffy and slightly crisp at the edges. When I got the hummus at Ebeneezer's it was watery like soup, too salty and garlic drenched. Here, the hommos is so much better and tastes MUCH MUCH more authentic. They put a nice olive oil and seasoning on top (which Ebeneezer's DOES NOT).
