Galveston.com Review
From the moment we walked in we were in a different world. Sinuous and hynotic middle-eastern music in the air, vintage travel posters adorning the walls. The renovation and expansion of this Lebanese-originated restaurant has made it more inviting than ever. Booths now line two walls, and a spacious bar is in back for the drinks-only crowd. We did pass up the sidewalk dining, it being July. But that can be enjoyable on the right day or evening, and in the right time of year.

We ordered Chardonnay from the admirable and international wine list. Wanting to sample as many items as possible, we chose appetizers of Tabouli and Spanakopita. The Tabouli was light and fresh with just enough lemon and mint, and the Spanakopita lush with layers of thin pastry over spinach and onion filling. Both very, very good.

My entree was Chicken Grecca. This juicy plate featured cubed marinated chicken in a tangy tomato-based sautée of onion, bell pepper, tomatoes and olives, topped with feta cheese. It was spicy hot with just enough of a bite for a coward like me. The accompanying roasted potatoes were perfect. I ate every bite.

My companion took the plunge and ordered the Combo Supreme, a smorgasboard of hummus, baba ganoug, dolmas, falafel, and kabobs of beef and chicken. The baba ganoug was the best we have ever tasted, wonderfully garlicky and creamy. The chicken and beef were flavorful but a bit dry, and the beef was chewier than he would have preferred.

The dinners came with Greek salads which had all the required ingredients in a light and tangy dressing. We finished up with Mediterranean Lime Pie, a light and airy concoction in a graham crust that is prepared on-site. The lime flavor was subtle and it had a wonderfully creamy consistency. We would have ordered decaf to accompany it, but they had only regular coffee and I didn’t want to be up all night tap dancing.

Overall this restaurant gets high praise. A great place for lunch or a casual dinner. It’s a Galveston tradition.

A sparkling jewel on the Strand. striider2004 4/26/2008 7:57:00 PM Great place. Have been here twice, and had great food both times. Good appetizers, and beautiful kabobs. A good choice for vegetarians. Great service. Smiling waitress. Leslie 4/20/2008 3:23:00 PM The food was great. The servers were very informitive and nice. The building was recently remodled and smelled a little. There was a talk show in a foreign language playing to loud. But over all it was a great experince. ck 4/7/2008 2:52:00 PM I used to love this place, but ever since the remodel, it's sterile and loud. It used to be quaint and old-world, but now you can't even have a conversation in there. The food and service used to be great, but at my last visit, they were both just ok. Disappointing. Ross 3/11/2008 6:53:00 PM Great gyros, hummus, moussaka, you name it! Friendly staff is a plus as well. John 3/3/2008 10:58:00 AM Some of the best Greek food on the island
