Easy location to get to right off of 95. I loved the large, free parking lot. Walking in I was transported to Lebanon. Wasn’t expecting the ornate decor. Service was very friendly, food was great. This is a good place for large groups as the dining room can accommodate many. Drinks came out slow, and it took a while to get the check but I think that’s a culture thing. Would definitely return.

Such a nice and authentic place! The food was amazing, especially the freshly baked small bread patty. The salad dressing could have been a little less, but all the flavors together made it a real feast—sour, sweet, and salty in perfect balance. Thanks, guys!

Wonderful dining experience. Very authentic Lebanese food and all the bread is fresh out of the oven. You have to try the hummus, lamb and spinach fatayer (dough pies)

The espresso martini was so creamy and delicious. Also the table bread was absolutely life-changing. We shared the beet salad (super sweet and very tasty), Hot Trio (my favorite being the cheese burak). The spinach fatayer was also a hit and the basmati rice. Someone also got the beef kabob, which i also tried, and it was absolutely delicious.

Came for the hummus, stayed for the belly dancer. So glad we did! Food was amazing- highly recommend the hummus (literally the creamiest hummus I’ve ever had), grape leaves, and la vie chicken. The belly dancer was amazing! Stay for the whole show- and bring cash to tip her! She is fantastic!

Restaurant has inviting vibe and elegant design. Hidden gem in Pompano Beach. Staff were great and professional. I enjoyed their chicken tagine and fearless mocktail. I did not like falafel much.

Food and service were great! Miriam, our server was very kind and attentive. We tried drinks, appetizers, entrees and desert. All were amazing! The $28 flight of cocktails is one of the best deals in town. We had two! Belly dancer was really good. We will be back for sure!

What a great and fun place to celebrate an occasion! It was my daughter's birthday and I found this place and decided to make a reservation. I booked it for the time of the belly dancer show which was 7pm. We walked in and immediately took photos at the entrance. The restaurant is beautiful and there are plenty photo opportunities there. We were greeted and our table was ready. We were seated at a long table and there were about 8 of us. The server came and took our drink orders. I had the margarita fusion flight which was good. For my entree I ordered the lamb chops and they were delicious! Everyone enjoyed their food and they also have a kids menu. While we were eating, the show started. The dancer came out dressed in a garment with lights and she was really engaging. My nephew commented that it was a great show! Lol We ended our meal with the servers bringing out dessert and singing Happy Birthday. We had a great time celebrating here and my daughter definitely enjoyed it.

TLDR: Beautiful restaurant, great food, a bit pricey. Wife found this restaurant as it was near an event we were going to. Came in a few minutes earlier than our reservation and was promptly seated. I was shocked in a good way of what the interior looked like..the ceiling 'treatment' was amazing. We were seated 'in the back' (when you walk in, alongside the window facing the front of the strip mall). Overall location for a nice dining experience but if this is important to you it's not the best spot for the bellydancing..so just keep that in mind. That's only 15 minutes long at 9 pm (and 7 I believe) on a Saturday night. We had two glasses of a red Lebanese wine. $16 and $17 each..a bit ouch. We had the following to share (we wanted lite, but also satisfying) *Labneh $15: A yogurt based dip to pair with their pita bread (the bread was a bit different but similar to Greek, came out incredible hot....a good thing!) *Arugula Beet Salad ($19): Always a crowd pleaser for us, and this was no different. *Spicy Shrimp ($17): 6 large shrimp in a great tomato sauce. We used our Pita to sop up some sauce. Great experience but as you can see from the prices, it does add up. We live close to the WBP location so would to check that out.

What a night I had. I loved this restaurant. The entertainment was awesome. The belly dancer was talented and full of energy. It was a joy to watch her show. She does two shows per night. I recommend staying for them. This is one beautiful place. They put so many details into the decor. They didn't miss a spot, maybe the bathrooms lol. It has a bar towards the back and an outdoor sitting area as well as an indoor one. The restaurant has a great atmosphere. It was a fun place. This was my first time having Lebanese cuisine and I liked it. I ordered by recommendations from the waitress. She did good. I liked her taste. We started with a yummy cocktail and then followed it with the Hot Trio an appetizer sampler. It was good. Lang Tagine was delish. I had never had anything like it before. We ended the dinner with Baklava. Everything tasted good. I was happy. The restaurant is located at a corner. It has plenty of parking right in front of it. I had a great experience here.

This was my third time here and I will be back again for sure. The food is amazing, the waiters are super nice and the girls dancing make the whole thing an awesome experience! I love the music, the vibes, the drinks, and it's always so much fun. I have been just for dinner, and also to celebrate birthdays! Just keep in mind that they do charge you a $25 fee if you bring your own birthday cake, so might as well leave the cake at home and order one of their delicious desserts!

We went to the WPB location. What a beautiful experience we had tonight! Raul and Justin shared their amazing service and recommendations throughout the evening. The food was delicious and made with love. You could taste the rich culture and care that was taken in the preparation of every bite we had! The belly dancer was such a treat!! Thank you!! We can't wait to come back!

We have been wanting to try this place for some time. Ordered several dishes to share. Drinks were great, several dishes were very good. Didn't love the lamb chops and the assorted pickles were way too salty. Everything else was fantastic and you can't beat the atmosphere or decor. The belly dancing was a nice touch - but the music gets quite loud so may be too much if anyone in your party is sensitive to sound. I definitely recommend folks give this place a try!

Really enjoyed our visit here! We came in right before they started getting busy. Our table was ready (we had a reservation) and our server was quick to bring waters and menus. You will need a minute to decide as everything does look good. But we found our drinks, and appetizer, and that gave us a bit more time to decide on entrees. The drinks were delicious, and with fun names. For the appetizer we got the Spinach Fatayer. We were really excited because the dough tasted amazing but when we bit into the spinach part it was almost still frozen. Thankfully, the server (who was excellent) corrected it immediately, and offered to bring something else. We chose the hummus this time. Again the Pita bread was just perfect, piping hot and delicious. The Hummus, I could have done with a bit more flavor in it but still good. For my entrée I had the La Vie Chicken. Let me just say the dish is not photogenic but the taste is definitely something to talk about. This dish was amazing!! Chicken was so tender, the mushrooms and the creamy mozzarella sauce just makes you want to keep eating even when full. And it comes with rice on the side, pairing perfectly with that La Vie Sauce. During dinner we had a belly dancer come out, which added fun to the experience, but had to cover my drink a couple of times when she came over with her "wings", almost getting them in. To finish, we had their baklava and I was just very happy to have finally been to La Vie.

Finally made it to La vie pompano! Although I just figured out this past week there is another location north closer to me I wanted to visited this location specifically. I've heard about it over the years so it just felt right. Arrived on a Sunday evening where Monday was a holiday so it wasn't too busy. Got to enjoy about 30minutes of belly dancing which was entertaining. I got the flight of mixed Lebanese wines. I didn't love the red. Got a cold appetizer mix of grape leaves, tabouli, baba ghanoush, and hummus to share with the table. For dinner my fiancé got the lamb tagine so fortunately I got to taste it and I got the mixed meats of kefta, chicken and filet mignon. We got the pistachi cotton candy style dessert which was fabulous and unique. My man got an expression martini and we were impressed by the taste and they sketched a heart on top. We weren't expecting to see that here and were highly impressed. It ended up being an expensive night but would return again!

Wondeful service. Beautiful venue! We visited tris restaurant located in Pompano Beach, the restaurant serves Lebanese cuisine, the restaurant has a beautiful decor and offers a top notch dining experience. Every detail is captivating. As for the menu It has a variety of choices including Lamb, Chicken, appetizers, salads, desserts, cocktails and Arabic coffee. We ordered the mixed and grilled meats, every bite has a wonderful flavor and the hummus and sauces were delicious. The chicken was tender, had plentiful flavor. All was served with a generous amount of fresh pita bread. As for dessert we tried the Vaklava, it was the best I had tried in Florida, lots of pistachio pieces and a very rich and sweet flavor. A very generous amount. Simply delicious! Sam took good care of us and she made sure we enjoyed our meal, it was an overall extraordinary service and culinary experience. We stayed there almost 2 hours, I'm very grateful with the staff who made sure we enjoyed our dining experience.

I had one of the best restaurant experiences ever recently at La Vie. My sister, mom and I celebrated Mother's Day there. Everything was TOP Notch! We enjoyed the Meza Platter. The hummus was just creamy perfection and the falafels were crispy on the outside and moist on the inside (sometimes falafels can be dry, but not here). The grilled meats were absolute perfection. The filet might have been the best steak that I've ever had. Better than high end "steak houses." The belly dancer was phenomenal. A beautiful lady with a genuine smile who seemed to love what she does. The wine list is perfect as well. There are about 10 Lebanese offerings. We chose the Musar Jeune Rouge. What a great choice! The staff was attentive, friendly and professional without being "stuffy." If you are looking for a special occasion place, i would highly recommend La Vie. It's in a bit of an unassuming looking strip mall on the outside, but once you walk in you feel as if you've been transported to another world. I cannot think of anything for them to improve upon, and that's a rare thing indeed!

Truly the best Lebanese food I've ever had in the US. Finally caught the belly dancer, and found her adorable and engaging. We were celebrating our engagement, and the staff made the experience extra special. Try the hummus, you won't be disappointed!

This was an absolutely amazing restaurant. I'm a little ashamed to say that this is the first time my wife and I have tried a Middle Eastern restaurant or Lebanese cooking. With that said it was phenomenal. Right from the get-go we were impressed. We walk inside and it's a beautiful restaurant and the staff was very friendly.. For drinks, we ordered the wake up and the Arabian night . These were both excellent drinks. The wake up had an excellent chocolate coffee flavor, and the gin and cucumber mix with the pineapple in my drink was excellent. For our appetizer, we ordered the hot trio. I recommend getting this. It came with three of their best appetizers and the flavors of each was outstanding, especially the spinach pastry. For dinner, we shared the grilled plate for two. it came with Taziki and a garlic aïoli dipping sauce. The chicken was so moist, tender, and full of flavor, the fillet mignon was absolutely amazing. It too was one of the most tender fillets we've had and the ground beef skewer was tremendous and flavor was excellent. Not gonna lie to you one of my favorite things was their basmati rice. I don't know how they make it but my Lord it is absolutely perfection. Light, fluffy and so much flavor. For dessert, we had the baklava and we only ordered two pieces. Wish we had ordered four because it was one of the best baklava we have had. If you haven't been to this place or you enjoy Lebanese style cooking, you definitely have to go to this restaurant . What made it even better, was the belly dancer that started a little late but usually starts at 7:30 . This is a great restaurant for families date night or just to go relax and enjoy an excellent meal.

Amazing atmosphere and food. We went on a Sunday night for a birthday, so we could enjoy the belly dancing in addition to the food. The dancer was great, she engaged with all of the kids and was very friendly and entertaining. We ordered some of the sharing platters and all was delicious. The fresh pita come out steaming hot. Service is attentive and our water glasses were kept full. Great for a large group as well as for a date night.

Pricey but worth every penny! We've only had take out from here and the service is always very attentive and hospitable! I would love to dine in sometime so we can check out the belly dancing. Honestly everything we've ordered has been absolutely incredible and there's so much food we usually have leftovers.

We had a lovely evening at this restaurant. The atmosphere and spaces are beautiful. You really feel it. The service was ok, kind of slow but extra bonus for our waiter who was very honest and even called us when he realized he didn't explain that the tip was already added to the check. Now the food was very good. The kippe was one of the best and everything we ordered was fresh and amazing. The belly dancing show was a great bonus to the night. I'm glad we drove up to this restaurant.

I really didn't think it would live up to the hype. And by hype, I really just mean a few of the pictures I had seen on line. We had made a combined list at the beginning of the year of a few restaurants that we wanted to hit and I had seen this place somewhere and had put it on the list. So the other day when a date night came up we decided to give it a try. When we arrived it was a little surprising how unassuming it was. its a end location on a strip mall and we were around 6pm so not many cars in the parking lot or people milling about. We walked into a place that was like another world though. It had vaulted ceilings, splashes of color everywhere, and lighting accents around every corner. The friendly gal at the front brought us to our seat. we started with the spinach empanadas . They were cold in the middle but they were quick to replace and take off out bill. the hummus we got as well was tasty, and well presented. Meanwhile we got some fun drinks. they were sweet but it sounds liek thats the norm. While we waited for our drinks a dancer came out. She was really good. She flew amongst the table shakin her hips and whipping her fabric wings about. I then got my lamb balls. They were pretty good. Not what I expected but then again I never had lamb balls before. There was a couple issues but the place was so fun and full of great energy it was still 5 stars. And I will be back.

Just the dining experience you have been looking for!! Great service and exceptionally well prepared dishes, a lot of flavors!! Make sure you are there by 8:30pm on the weekends to catch the belly dancers, extremely impressive.

We had great service and food on the Sunday evening we visited. We started off with the trio appetizer. Everything tasted so fresh. The server said the sauces are made in-house. We also had a mixed kebab so we could try a variety of meats. We then shared two desserts. The baklava comes with 4 pieces. The Lebanese cotton candy dessert topped with pistachio ice cream was interesting. The "cotton candy" tasted like a sugar cookie and the ice cream was more icy than creamy. Desserts were neat to try, but I wouldn't order again. They have a belly dance performance multiple nights a week. On Sunday she performed at 7pm. They are equipped to handle large party tables. There is plenty of parking in the attached lot.

The dinner at La Vie we had last night was phenomenal! I'm so glad I won a gift card for there and it did not disappoint. We stepped out of our comfort zone and it was a nice experience. The decor is very elegant and it puts you in the spirit of Levant, the Mediterranean, and Middle East regions. The Lebanita cocktail did the job. I was feeling the works by halfway in, so there is a good amount of tequila in it. It's basically a margarita with with a splash of orange and has a black salt rim. There was a complimentary appetizer that is similar to a hummus that had olives in it served with chips. I do not like olives at all and this dip won me over. Plus, we had puff bread before our meals came out. The starters were perfect. The chicken kabob was served on a pita bread and it came with grilled veggies as well as basmati rice. The dish had tahini sauce and another one that I can't remember the name of for the toppings and it was so good. I also had a bite of my husband's beef kabob and we enjoyed both of our dishes. The chocolate lava cake was a sweet ending. Everything was cooked and presented beautifully. The staff was excellent with helping each other and getting orders out smoothly. Our waiter answered any questions we had about the menu and he was professional with handling our order. There was an unusual wait for the dessert at the end and he took it off the bill no questions asked. Nice touch! The belly dancer show is a must see. The dancer went around the entire restaurant and performed for the customers. It's not often we get to see a show while we are having dinner, so we lived it up to the nines and enjoyed every single minute of our visit. We definitely will come back again!

It is an amazing, delicious and entertaining experience. Great for a small group. The first thing you will notice is how beautiful the restaurant is. You don't expect it from the strip mall outside, but it's gorgeous. Lots of interesting things to look at from the lights to the curtains. A great feast for the eyes before the feast for the mouth. The service is attentive and caring. I never had an empty glass. And, nobody cared that we stayed for more than two hours. The food is the star. Great Mediterranean meals. The mezze plate is excellent with probably the best Baba ganoush that I have ever had. The lamb meat ball tangine was incredible with just the right spicing. I made the mistake of ordering the grouper tangine. Skip that. Go with the lamb. The baklava for dessert was devine. Not too sweet like many places. And my favorite mint tea was perfect. In the middle of the meal, a belly dancer came out. It was a fine show that was entertaining. But the music was loud and you could not talk with your guests. Overall, a fantastic feast for eyes and mouth. Do visit. Overall

We loved the decor and the atmosphere. They have beautiful colored lamps hanging throughout the restaurant. You feel like you're in Lebanon or the Middle East not Florida. They also had a belly dancer that night (Saturday). They have a full cocktail list as well as wine. We went with the espresso martinis made with Bailey's Irish Cream, I highly recommend them, they were like having dessert in a glass. We chose a lamb tagine and a chicken kabob dish which come with rice. The waiter mentioned that the chef is Moroccan which is why they have Moroccan tagine dishes on the menu as well as Lebanese food. The food was delicious we really enjoyed it. The only thing I found surprising was that the chicken kabob was served on a tortilla not their homemade fresh Pita bread. Disappointed with that. The service was excellent.

Came here with my grandma for Mother's Day. They had a good four course meal for $75 for the day which was really great. They offered also belly dance experience with a live dancer. The service was a bit slow but eventually, we figured we have to enjoy our time but the thing is we were hungry lol The food was great and not to mention $28 flight of signature drinks of your choosing!!! Next up is the pistachio cheesecake that I'm dying to try! The music reminds me of a time when I was in Greece, listening to House Mediterranean music with saxophone.

We had an outstanding experience at La Vie! I was surprised to see the beautiful and eccentric decor inside, and I love the high ceilings. We arrived just before 8pm, which is when the belly dancing performance began. What a fun way to start dinner! We started with the cold mixed, a combo of trips including hummus, grape leaves and baba ganoush. Excellent! I loved the mixed platter entree and would highly recommend this dish; the different meats were flavorful and tender. It was a large portion, so I ended up bringing a lot home. Our server was awesome and made sure we always had drinks and fresh plates. I can't wait to return!

Excellent experience. The food was incredibly fresh. They have really great lunch specials. I tried the Labneh and it came with a TON of fresh pita rolls. It was so good, I couldn't stop eating it. My boyfriend got the kabob wrap lunch special, he ate every last crumb. The wrap was very flavorful. The fries were crispy outside with a soft inside. The cocktail menu looked great. We saw several guests enthusiastic about ordering another cocktail. The price was really great for a lunch special. The service was fairly quick. Our food came out in about 10 minutes from ordering. The ambiance is a adorable. This place is perfect for a date. It's very picturesque.

Every now and then you come across a restaurant that exceeds your expectations in every way. La Vie did it for us tonight. A party of five, we were seated at a table of our choosing. Our waitress, Miriam, was wonderful. She answered our questions about the dishes, brought our drinks and had us sample two wines to have with dinner. We had the Trio appetizers, we all agreed they were wonderful. La Vie Chicken was exquisite, the steak kabob, was super tender and the lamb tanging was the best lamb we have ever had. If you are in Pompano Beach, be sure to come and enjoy this delightful restaurant.

Our server, Casey was amazing! Super sweet, funny and on point. Nice restaurant. We came for lunch so it was not crowded nice and quiet we had the place to ourselves. Very pretty inside. Food was overpriced, especially my Caesar salad $14 + $10 for 4 over cooked shrimp and a lot of croutons. I literally filled my appetizer plate with croutons, wish I took a photo because we were laughing about it. But not one sliver of Parmesan. Hummus and pita very tasty, also the Lebanese salad was amazing so I had high hopes for my Caesar which fell flat. My friend had the kefta, I tasted it... was good. My other friend had the chicken shawarma not so good. It seemed wrapped in a tortilla he expected a lavash so it was weird also small for the price. If I go back, I would just stick with the appetizers. Although the falafel was dry, wasn't what we were expecting. It was the green falafel if that makes a difference. Fried cheese roll was good, interesting to try. 5 people for lunch with wine $77 each including tip. Very expensive lunch $385!

Really good food and nice hefty portions. Great for sharing with a group and getting to try a variety of things. There's also two belly dancing shows per evening and the dancer is gorgeous and interactive. I went with my family and we started with the veggie mezzo platter for an appetizer. It came with 4 grape leaves, hummus, baba ganoush, yogurt, and a nice refreshing salad in the center. It came with a basket of hot pita. Everything was made very well. My favorite was the grape leaves. We also tried the kibbeh which the server taught us to eat with the meat, the mint leaves, onions and a drizzle of olive oil. The kibbeh itself alone doesn't have a strong flavor but with all the pieces put together, it really compliments each other very well. The mixed grill for two was a good portion of different meats and it was great. Each type of meat had it's own unique flavor and I loved the char on the edges. The steak was my favorite. So tender and juicy. It was great to eat with the veggie skewers and you can have fun with the wrap if you want to get creative. The lamb chops were my absolute favorite entree. I am usually hesitant with lamb cause it's could be gamey but La Vie made it so well. It was seasoned so good and again, the smoky char made it really tasty. Very tender and easy to eat off the bone. The dessert we tried was the knefah. It is served hot and the rich creamy cheese center plus the crunchy phyllo flakes was amazing. So unique and the subtle taste of rosewater and pistachio was lovely. The dancer was very interactive and skilled. It created a nice fun atmosphere for dinner. Will definitely be coming back.

We had to eat outside because the interior of the restaurant was reserved for price fix diners due to the "valentine's weekend price fix menu." Because we preferred to use the regular menu, we were required to sit at an outside table despite several empty tables inside.The service was friendly and attentive. However, the food was fairly average. My branzino fish was flavorless and my husband's chicken kebab was dry. I was hoping to see some belly dancing which never appeared. Overall, an ok experience but would not make the 30 minute excursion from our home to sample this restaurant again in the future.

The food was totally delicious. Every item that I tried & shared with my friends. The service with Gustavo was on point & he was very attentive & helpful explaining the food. From the outside of this restaurant, you would never imagine how beautiful & colorful it is inside. You are transported to Lebanon & Morocco with authentic decor. Last but not least- the belly dance show was fabulous!!! She did come out with lit candles on her head!!! Absolutely amazing!!! One of the best experiences I've had so far!!! Will definitely be back!!!

What an unforgettable experience! Only topped by the amazing service received from our server Muhammad. He did everything to accommodate and provide us with world class service, was attentive, and made our Friday night something to remember. The food was amazing.Thank you Muhammad we will definitely come back and experience the belly dancing even though I stared at the ceiling the entire time. There are 16 beams coming from the ceiling, I counted.

My friend and I enjoyed the 'garden' seating outside La Vie (not a real garden but cute and it was a beautiful cool night). We ordered hummus, spinach pies, spicy batatas, and we shared the chicken shawarma. The mini pita pockets came out warm and the hummus was fresh. the spinach pies were delicious too. I loved the spicy potatoes because they were crispy on the outside and had chili flakes on them... very very good! The chicken shawarma was what I liked least but it was okay because of their unique garlic sauce (I didn't taste tahini sauce on this meal which I'm accustomed to). Overall I gave them 4 stars because I would go back but wouldn't order the shawarma again. Ohhhh and the drinks were amazing!

O came to La Vie Lebanese to have a romantic dinner with my husband. The place is certainly conducive for it with it's low ambiance lighting and because we came on a weekday and there was not lot of people it certainly felt intimate, but make no mistake, the dining room is big. Service was great. We had a few cocktails, the most notable was my old fashioned, which was on point. The food was also excellent. I love Mediterranean cuisine and this was one of the better dinners Ive had. Id certainly recommend this restaurant.

Never would I have imagined what was inside this restaurant from the exterior but the decor was amazing! Service was impeccable, the food was delicious and watch out for the strong drinks. There was a group of us and the service didn't skip a beat. The drinks were all strong and good. The decor is everywhere and its a sight to see. The belly dancer started at 8 pm sharp and worked the entire restaurant. We will definitely be back.

Stopped by La Vie on my way back to Miami from Boca. It's conveniently located close to 95, and if you find yourself hungry on your way to South Florida - La Vie is a good option. We loved the food and even more so loved the belly dancer. Service was attentive and prompt. Two thumbs up!

Heard about this place for a while, and finally tried it. It is really cool looking inside. The service is very efficient and doting, but not overly friendly. They right away give you chips with an olive tapenade. This was tasty. My friend ordered a salad and I ordered the falafel appetizer. We both enjoyed our meals. They advertise belly dancing on certain nights, but it wasn't on the night we were there. The food is on the expensive side, but you can tell it is quality and that it is worth it. Would definitely come here again.

Loved this place!! The interior is absolutely gorgeous and the staff was very friendly and the food was good! I had been meaning to try this place for a while now but every time, something would come up. Finally, I went!! We missed the belly dancer but all the same it was great! We had the triple hot mezza dish which included 2 spinach rakakat, 2 cheese rolls and 2 kibbe. The spinach and the cheese rolls were absolutely delicious!! The kibbe, I didn't like. Which was a surprise to me because I expected it to be the best which is why I saved it for last. But it was mushy inside and did not taste good. The tabbouleh was delicious! And so was the kibbe nayyeh with the mouth-watering bread! I ended up taking a bunch of bread home with me. The kafta platter was alright. I had higher expectations. The rice and tzaziki it came with outshined the actual kafta kebab meat but it was still good. We had 2 drinks, the romance habibi and mystic riddle (which was my favorite). Both were good We ended the dinner with a knefe and it was incredible Angel was our waiter and he treated was very well! He was friendly and the food was quick I definitely recommend La Vie
