Seemed very understaffed for Valentine's Day. 1 person was taking orders, payments, serving food and everything. Only saw 2 people in the kitchen - food took an hour to arrive to our table. Also worth noting patrons have to walk through the kitchen to use the bathrooms. Huge turn off for me, wish I knew I wouldn't have dined there,not food safe in my opinion.

Order the cauliflower! Everything was delicious (lamb skewers, hummus, fattoush and falafel) with tahini cauliflower being the standout. Friendly, efficient service and a good atmosphere.

Yummy Lebanese food, very clean restaurant and the toilet is through the kitchen so you can see the kitchen is clean too. Friendly service and reasonably priced. The Lebanese restaurants along Cleveland St are getting harder to find so this is a gem 💎

went there for a casual dinner on a Friday and needed a restaurant that could seat us at 5:15, Emma's one of the few in the area that opens before 6. Food was terrific and generous. Very reasonably priced. Will be going back
