Ok...it's a little cliche'd...and you feel like you are walking into the best party going on in the middle of the desert...but this is a great restaurant with fantastic entertainment value. Quick! Put down your falafel! The belly dancer needs you to 'try' and put a dollar in her waistband before your food goes cold! The service is excellent and very quick, the food is consistently good, nice lemonade (sorry for mentioning this often...but it's true...and I like lemonade!). The music is often louder than I'm sure most would wish...but it adds to the overall experience...and if you want to get up and show off the latest moves you learnt from the last wedding/bar mitzvah you were at, then here's the place to do it. Special note: the bongo drum (maybe that's not exactly what it's called) player is extremely good! Delicious hummus, babaganoush, marinated and grilled meats (pieces of filete and chicken especially), great unleavened pita bread...all not expensive and with great free entertainment...a must visit restaurant! [Note: sorry to say this but the 'other' Beirut on the Causeway is a shadow of this City centre place...food, entertainment...everything...there is only one worth going to...]
