The restaurant was quiet on a Saturday early afternoon. The seating was comfortable and the staff was friendly and attentive. We had the Makanik and vegetarian sampler, as well as the mint lemonade. Everything was very flavorful and savory, even the crunchy bread was delicious.

We enjoyed the food in general. The Fattoush salad and Labneh were the best. We were disappointed that Mitch, the musician and singer, cancelled his appearance. Hopefully we can enjoy his music in a future occasion.

Feasting on Flavor

Al Wadi's menu is a feast for the senses, showcasing an impressive array of dishes. The Meat Mezza selections are particularly noteworthy.

This dish is not just gluten-free but also a testament to authentic Lebanese flavors that linger long after the meal.

Another standout is the Kibbeh Krass.

Each bite is a celebration of flavors that exemplify Al Wadi’s commitment to quality and freshness.
