  A Lebanese and international restaurant located in Estepona, one of the distinguished restaurants that I always visit at every opportunity I get, if you are looking for Arabic and Middle Eastern food, then make it one of your choices

  We have been coming to this Resturant for years and whilst the old menu was more extensive the new menu is fantastic quality and we were assured that when they have settled they will add to the menu with some of the other traditional favourites chicken pastilla/ garlic and lemon chicken wings etc.
  
  The new management is friendly and attentive, David in particular was fantastic and very happy to accommodate what we requested.
  
  A note for previous reviews… give this place a chance it has come through a difficult time with Covid and all the implications that followed but with time this will be super.
  
  We will definitely be back!

  We were brought here friends who had great experiences before lockdown.
  It is now under new ownership/ management and our experience was terrible.
  Restaurant was fairly empty. Despite this, the service was dreadful. The waiting staff were pretty clueless and unattentive.
  Portions were very small in my view, especially for the starters. The food was very mediocre.
  Finally the prices were astronomical. About €13 for a small plate of humous as a starter!! We had to order 2 of some dishes as they were so small. That is ridiculously expensive, particularly when their website menu says €6 - and when challenged the manager said the website was 5 years out of date - seriously??
  We were shocked at the final bill. €250 for 4 of us before service (which we decided was undeserved) for 12 starters, 1 main a bottle of house white and 2 baklava.
  This restaurant really needs to get its act together.
  For the moment, I'd say steer clear as you are likely to be disappointed.

  We ate in this restaurant 4 years ago and the food was just EXCELLENT at that time. The restaurant has apparently been sold to new people with little/no knowledge about lebanese food. The food did not look lebanese and it didnt taste lebanese either. The food was not tasty at all to be honest, and luckily the portions were small!
  
  The price level is extremely high. The restaurant even charges you for the forks, knives and the empty plates that you are using!
  This "lebanese" restaurant has unfortunately NOTHING to do with lebanese food!
  
  STAY AWAY!

  I enjoyed a really lovely meal but a couple of things took away from the experience
  1) small bottles of water for €5. It's out of step with the rest of the restaurant pricing and an unexpected expense.
  2) wine we ordered was not available. Alternative was offered and we were told twice it was the same price. The wine was charged at €39 and the wine we had asked for was €26.
  We didn't bother discussing with staff, just paid and left without tipping which left us in a similar position financially but may have left our waiter with less, which is regrettable.
