Editorial Review for Lebanon's Cafe – by Pableaux Johnson

The Scene
With its wall-sized bazaar mural and cobbled-together feel, Lebanon's is the kind of comfortable joint you'd expect to find in the university area. The tables are usually packed with budget-minded students grabbing a quick sandwich and neighborhood regulars out for the evening.

The Food
Local vegetarians can finally breathe easy. Lebanon's features standard Middle Eastern fare with an emphasis on both grilled meat items (kabobs, gyros) and vegetarian salads and finger foods (humus, baba ganuj, grape leaves). No real surprises here, just garlic-heavy specialties perfect for scooping up with hand-torn pita bread. Try the two-serving chef's special for a broad and filling sampling of various appetizer offerings or the outstanding chicken kabob entree.

I can't vouche for dining in, though I've done so once and it was a great experience. I can, however, testify to the fact that carry-out from Lebanon's Cafe is some of the best in New Orleans. The portions are enormous (I'm a 180 lb. fellow and one dinner taken home easily gives me two nights worth of meals), the quality and freshness is top-notch, and flavor-wise this is as good as Lebanese food gets. FYI - this is a BYO restaraunt and they encourage you to bring your own wine or beer to enjoy with some great food. Highly recommended! Try it - you'll definitely like it!

Pros: Flavor, freshness, portions, value.

Cons: Parking can be a challenge on weekends. Othewise, none!
