    Excellent service.. Every time I go here I get the Kibbee, and they are nice enough to bake them for me instead of fry! The Baklava is hands down the best in the Tampa Bay Area (and not too sweet!). They are also extremely fast and the mint tea is refreshing.

    Great food, nice service. Not a fancy restaurant but the food is so good. Great place for lunch or dinner. Tabouleh salad and fallafel sandwich were excellent. I will be back....

    Went here for a quick lunch after reading the reviews. This is a great little place. Nothing special but just perfect to clench your teeth into some middle eastern deliciousness. Warmly greeted by the staff who salt me down and took my order. I didn't even need to look at the menu as I came for one thing. Falafel. The food came promptly along with a side of fries. Everything eas great. The falafel was among the best that I've had. Plenty of chick pea patties with pickles and the other accoutrements that you normally find inside. I needed a little hot sauce but that was for my liking only. The fries were great. Not greasy and had a little spice to them. This is a really good place for lunch and I would imagine for dinner as well. Authentic and reminds you of what middle eastern food should taste like. Of note there were many ethnic people eating here and to me is a good sign of good quality authentic food. You will enjoy this place.

    Don't let the small size from the street or parkig lot fool you. Recently had dinner here and was very impressed with the food and service. Portions were great. Food was delicious and very filling. In talking with the owner while we were there, found out they have only been open a few months. Seriously under utilized their marketing. Great food!!!

    Discreetly placed in a strip mall, this little gem of a restaurant is way more than meets the eye. The decor is pleasant and the place was very clean. The service was great and the dinners we ordered, lamb shank and beef shish kabobs, came with a choice of one of three different salads or soup. The presentation was terrific, the portions were very generous, the meals were delicious, and the prices were reasonable. We will definitely return.

    Ate here tonight. Super nice family that owns and runs it. I have experience with Lebanese food and this was as perfect as the meals I have had in the past. We started with an order of Baba Gahnouge which was delicious! My husband just about licked the bowl clean. We moved on to a Fatoush salad which was also delicious. I had a Shish Tawook pressed sandwich with fries and hubby had the Chicken Shawarma. Both were excellent. We will be returning!

    The best Lebanese I have had in the U.S. and Canada. The hummus was amazing, homemade dolmades were perfect, and the mixed meat platter with grilled veggies and rice was delicious. We ordered a family platter to go and a chicken shawarma to go for later it was so good. My new favorite casual restaurant!!!

    A great place. Another little place that does it right. Great Lebanese food that reminds me of the Lebanese meals that my aunt used to make. Authentic Lebanese food at a reasonable price!

    I have now been here twice and although the decor is horrible the food is good. I would highly recommend the baba gnoush. It is enough for four people and delish! For main course i got the beef kabobs, which were good. My favorite part of the meal is the almond slices in the rice. It is a family run business and the service is decent. I will be returning and you should give it a shot also

    After having a bad experience at Beirut Cafe we found this place right around the corner. All I can say is I have found a new place to eat. I tried Hummus for the first time and loved it. The gentleman behind the counter was very helpful and friendly. The place was clean and had lots of room for big parties. I had the meat pie that is fried in a very tasty dough. It was so good. I look forward to many more visits.

    AUTHENTIC is the watchword here! Beautifully prepared, tasty dishes, served quickly! The ambience leaves something to be desired, but the food makes you forget it! I have been three times and enjoyed my meal each time. Kafta is a middle-eastern favorite of mine, and it's prepared wonderfully here with strong flavors, which I like. Soujouk is something I have never seen on menus elsewhere, but was suggested by the waitress, and would be a definite recommendation! Lamb Shwarma, not on the menu but again suggested by my helpful waitress, was also a winner! A real winner, I've been back, you should too!

    Sitting here smoking some fine melon blue shisha and reflecting on the savory chicken shish tawook digesting in my belly. Yum!

    Cedars Cafeteria is a humble Lebanese joint, reminiscent of a roller rink snack bar. Waaaaaay out west on that part of Park Boulevard that you never knew existed--- Shouldn't we be hitting water soon? There is an ordering counter with the menu on the wall. But, if you are dining in, there is table service and hand held menu ordering. Service was quite good, but there were only two tables of customers at the time I was here. While I'm not necessarily hooked by any of the dishes, there are a few items that are not common: 1. Soujek Wrap- house made sausage wrapped in a pita with garlic tahini sauce. It was just a wrap, nothing spectacular. The fries were actually more impressive, coated and super crispy. 2. Fatayer- Huge basket of ground beef pies. The pie shell portion was tender and served hot. Again, not bursting with flavor or anything, but a large portion for only $5.99. My husband could not stop eating them. But, the flavor just reminded me of a Krystal burger. Almost $6 for a service of hummus, no thanks. The same for the Fatoush and Falafel bricks. There are many other places in the area, so for this price, they might want to step their game up. I hope that the Babaghanoush is worth a trip back. If you are looking for Halal classic American dishes, they have those as well: hot dogs, Philly Steak sandwiches, hamburgers, and so on.

    I've been to the Middle East numerous times. Though I live in FL, my previous most loved Lebanese restaurant is in Detroit. My favorite shawarma in Vancouver, BC. In other words, I am fairly well-traveled and this is the real deal. Everything was fresh and homemade. Perfectly cooked, with excellent and subtle spices. There is also a little market, so that's fun too. We tried a mixture of the food for lunch, and while I won't go into exhaustive detail on everything we ordered, suffice it to say I would have licked my plate if it wasn't so rude! It was so good that we ordered a bunch of food for dinner later that evening, and picked up some items from the little market. So, if you ever need a Mediterranean fix in the greater St. Pete area this is your joint.

    My husband and I came here and ordered take out this week. We ordered the hummus appetizer, a falafel pita/sandwich, and a gyro. The latter two came with an order of fries. The hummus here is outstanding and appetizer comes with plenty of fresh pita bread. It has just the right amount of garlic, but does require some stirring before eating. My husband enjoyed the gyro. I'm not a meat eater, so I can't comment on it firsthand. My falafel sandwich/wrap was awesome. The falafel was extremely fresh and well made. I tend to like more sauce with my falafel so I added some hummus from the appetizer. The French fries on the side were standard, but cooked well so definitely no complaints. Simply excellent food at this restaurant. We will be return customers in the near future.

    If u appreciate Middle Eastern food like i do , u will love this place.. Not only was it fresh and tasty, it was also truly authentic. I ordered the kibbeh appetizer which was great . Moist, not dry like most places and the meat in the middle was very flavorful and aromatic..a definite reorder. Two thumbs up for the tzatziki sauce for dipping too. It was on point. I also really enjoyed the pressed wraps. Bonus is to always come with someone so u can each order different things and split. We ordered the Sujouk & Beef Shawarma. Even though we agreed that both of them were tasty, we both enjoyed the Sujouk better. I love these little delectable sandwiches, they remind me of the sandwiches back at my other home in Greece. They don't over stuff, but distribute each ingredient perfectly so u can enjoy all the flavors, and eat them neatly for a quick bite while your walking down the street... for $6.99 served with fries, u cannot beat the price. I was very surprised to see kibeh nayeh, which is a raw meat plate. I've never had any, and always been interested to what it tastes like, but I never had the nerve to go through with it:-) I'm a bit scared of it to tell u the truth. I would definitely try it if someone else ordered it, but to order a whole plate for myself... Umm.. I don't think I could haha . One Day ! I will return to try more. I must try the falafel, I actually surprised myself by not ordering some, but because there were more options available here than your regular Lebanese place it steered me away, which is a good thing. On top of being truly Authentic which brings me joy, the staff (owners maybe) were awesome . There are some very friendly people in there, which brings this review to a worthy 5 star.

    I've been in a couple times now and I have had really positive experiences so far. The inside is very plain and reminds me a bit of a cafeteria. You can make an order to go at the counter or take a seat and someone will bring you a menu. The tables are consistently clean and you can get your own drink refills if you so choose. The family that runs it is seriously wonderful. The wife has some great recipes, guys. She can lead you to food heaven too. I've had a variety of things so far. I've had a few different meats thanks to the cedars platter. You pick a couple from a list, and they show up with a bed of seasoned rice (what do they put in it!?), grilled veggies, and pita. I've had a couple of the appetizers/salads - baba ganouj, fatuosh, tabbouleh, and kibbe. The baba has this insane smoky flavor, unlike any other baba I've had. The fatoush is simple and a great gateway salad for someone not familiar with middle eastern food. The tabbouleh was delicious, and I might be able to eat my weight in kibbe. I've sampled the leg of lamb on their entrees list and it was very soft and flavorful. The first time I went I wrapped up dinner with the namoura and they were delicious, but I've yet to have one I didn't like. My only real complaint is the ground meat is always beef; I have a preference for lamb when it comes to my kofta. I'm looking forward to trying the knafeh one of these days. I'll definitely be back, though. It's super close to me AND halal so I can please the manthing without the long trek to Tampa.

    What a great find! A authentic Lebanese restaurant here in the heart of Largo. This is my third visits in less than a month, unfortunately it is quiet a drive from where I live, but it so worth the drive to get the real lebanese kibeh nayeh (raw meat). The service is friendly and pretty fast, if you are into lamb or chicken shawarma, look no further. For me personally, I love their kafta sandwich (minced beef with parsley and onions). I would definitely recommend this place for middle eastern food lovers, especially Lebanese cuisine.

    Nondescript strip mall hides a pleasant family owned Lebanese restaurant. Interior is nice, clean and well maintained, but could use some decorations. Service was amazing, friendly and attentive. We tried the red pepper hummus, baba gahnouge, tabouleh, falafel patties, and stuffed grape leaves. All were amazing. The stuffed grape leaves were my favorite, just like grandma used to make. The baklava were outstanding, the best on the beach - not too sweet.

    Hands down some of the best food in town. Even for my friends that haven't had lebanese food before, this was a win. Food always tastes fresh, salads are huge, the kabobs and kibbe are cooked perfectly! We also love the fresh grape leaves, seriously some of the best I've ever had... The owners are also very nice and the takeout option is also great. Its a quiet place for lunch so perfect for a quick meeting too.

    Ordered Shish Kabob Marinated beef in garlic and oil cooked to perfection Most of the meat was well over cooked and did not seem to be marinated with any flavor. Presentation was poor with thin slices of onion and tomato and no green pepper as expected. Two pieces of the meat added to each end were raw uncooked.
