Lebnani house

I had a great experience at The Lebnani House with excellent food and good service. If you can, go on a Friday night, as that’s the only day they serve their Jordanian Mansaf, which is a must-try. Also, don’t miss the Eggplant and Beef Fatteh, and be sure to ask for a basket of bread as they pair perfectly together.

I recently visited this Lebanese restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting — soft lighting, pleasant music, and a feeling like you’re dining at a friend’s home. The food is absolutely amazing! Everything is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The hummus is the best I’ve ever had, the tabbouleh is crisp and refreshing, and the grilled meat melts in your mouth. The staff deserves special mention — very friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about their guests. If you want to experience authentic Lebanese cuisine and enjoy every bite, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back and bringing my friends

Amazing food! We reached a little late hence received slower service but it’s completely fine. We tried Othmaliya Cheese Rolls, Chicken Shwarma with rice and Baklava. All of it was amazing! Do visit for some amazing middle eastern food

Such a warm and welcoming environment. It was quick so I was able to come and go during my lunch. I had the beef shawarma and it was so delicious with the bread. Karlita was very nice, multitasked like a champ, and completed the experience. They are very lucky to have her on the team. Definitely will be coming back again!

Delicious , high quality authentic Lebanese food. Best baklava I ever had ! Home made and fresh nothing frozen. Recommend the stuffed grape leafs. Karlita is a very hard worker !

The food was great, as well as the display! The room we were in had warm heaters and we had a wonderful view of many decorations. Our server was very kind and was good about bringing the dishes fast. It was an overall amazing place! Would recommend for a cozy weekend dinner night.

We had such a great experience for lunch. Our waitress Dena gave great tips on what dishes to try and was very attentive. Everything was wonderful especially the chicken meatballs, hummus with bread, and mint lemonade.

This was one of the best new-to-us cuisine experiences we’ve ever had! The food was AMAZING (highly recommend the mushrooms and the Umm Ali). Karlita was phenomenal - always gave us what we needed but never hovered. 10/10 - we’ll definitely be coming back!

Everything was awesome Service outstanding and the food to die for We go there often

My goodness! In a word: divine. We were enjoying a little mini-golf nearby and wanted to follow it up with some dinner. This spot was so highly rated, we new we had to give it a try. I'm so glad we did. Everything from the food to the service to the atmosphere is absolutely superb. To start, we got the hummus trio. It comes with perfectly pillowy bread for dipping. The hummus flavors are beetroot, pesto, and chili. They said you can mix and match. So, if there are flavors you prefer you can get more of that and skip one of the flavors you don't fancy. I wouldn't have changed a thing. All three were silky, flavorful, and just perfect in every way. For my main dish, I got the grilled salmon and paid a bit extra to have their batata harra on the side. It was well worth the extra cost because the often raved about batata harra lives up to the hype. The potatoes are flavorful and perfectly crispy. The salmon came with a buttery sauce that was light and lovely. Truly a remarkable first experience here! Get to it!

We visited and it's honestly hard to understand the great reviews. Just walking in, the lights are uncomfortably bright. It was like eating in an operating room. We started with the pine nut hummus. The bread that came with it was great. The hummus was very tart and there were hardly any pine nuts. We also had the pistachio chicken bites which were very good. Main courses: My wife had the chicken fatteh which she thought was mediocre. I had the mixed grill. While the chicken was delicious and moist (and I recommend it if you eat here), the steak and ground meat skewers were so overcooked they were hardly edible. The rice was very bland- I had to salt it. Overall, it was a disappointment.

Place looks nice on the inside, soft colors with tranquil songs playing throughout. We were seated quickly, but unfortunately it took them a while to come to us for service. We noticed others enter and be seen before we ever saw our server. I did not feel welcomed here and that might have been due to the sub-par service at the beginning of the meal. When our server finally arrived, I decided to go with the Shawarma, while my daughter went with the Armenian lahm bi ajin (Lamajun). This was the last we saw of our server for a while. My daughter got the watermelon lemonade, which arrived about 5 minutes after we ordered. Our food arrived about 15 minutes after we ordered, a reasonable time and an eye catching presentation. Chicken was cooked well, tender and juicy, flavored just right. According to my daughter, the lahm bi ajin has a wide array of spices peppered throughout that felt like a firework in her mouth every time she bit into it. I tried it too, but unfortunately I grew up on Armenian Lamajun and it could not compare with grandma's cooking - no points off for that though, not a fair judgement. The cost was reasonable, $20 was where the meals topped off at with many selections even lower. Overall scores: Food. - 7.9 Atmosphere. - 7.5 Service - 6.5 Cost - 8.0 I would give Lebnani House a score of 7.5. I would probably return and try other menu items. I just hope service would be better next time.

Was traveling thru Milwaukee and looking for some Mediterranean food. Lebnani House was highly recommended by the Yelp Army and took their advice. We visited on a Tuesday afternoon and was seated with no issues. A very decorative restaurant with a very intimate setting when you and enjoy a meal for 2 or a group. Please note this restaurant does not serve alcohol, but make up for it with their intimate dining and delicious food. If alcohol is what you're expecting, might try a different restaurant. Again, Lebnani House will provide a great experience with reasonable prices. All food was served perfectly seasoned and good portions. Service was excellent and always checked up on us. Great food and great service made our experience memorable. If you're interested in trying great Mediterranean cuisine, give them a try!!

Every once in a while you find a gem of a restaurant that you never forget. Karlita gave great friendly service and an amazing recommendation. I ordered a beef/tomato dish and she recommended ordering some hummus on the side since the dish was on the smaller size. Little did I know, the hummus would steal the show. That hummus was the creamiest and smoothest hummus I have ever tasted in my life. It also had all the flavor to back it up. It makes me want to marry into the family to get the recipe! The other beef/tomato dish was so abundant with flavor, it was intense! The bread on the side was very light and complemented the other two dishes perfectly. The colorful tree decoration in the middle of the restaurant made for a beautiful centerpiece as well. The seats were also comfortable and stylish. I can't wait to come back again!

I went to this place for my birthday and had the opportunity to get a sample quite a few items on the menu. The place was decorated so beautifully. The food was fresh, tasty and really unique. If you're looking for a fun date night or to try some ethnic type of foods hit this place up. The service was spectacular and the servers explained all the items on the menu.

This place is amazing! They have the best and creamiest hummus I've ever tried. The Shush Tawooq plate came with the garlic sauce / dip that just added flavor and zest to the plate. Chicken pieces were juicy and the bread that came with the plate dipped with garlic was so tasty. I love the grilled texture, highly recommend for anyone trying this place for the first time! The dinner rolls/bread rolls were almost pillowy / fluffy soft, it tasted great with hummus and garlic dip. I opted for the refreshing mango lemonade that came in with blended ice, super tasty and sweetness was just right. The ambience was nice and artsy, with 3d floral wall art and a flower tree display at the center of the restaurant. Staff was helpful, fast, and nice. I used their WiFi for my laptop and worked great. Lots of space, I can see this place getting crowded as their food speaks wonders.

Great food and great service. They were accommodating for our group size and even gave us extra bread to take home with us.

Food is delicious and a must try, service was nice friendly. And the atmosphere was was relaxing and calm. Definitely a must try.

Lebanani House provides a fantastic culinary journey to the Middle East. Located in a large, banquet-style room, the restaurant is comfortable, spotless, and authentic. With a vast menu catering to all tastes, deciding what to eat is difficult. However, the warm and engaging staff are pleased to guide you along. Everything tasted delicious, and the cooking remained loyal to the food's origins. Hummus was scrumptious, scooped up with the puffy Palestinian bread. Manoushe had us sighing with pleasure. My chicken Maqlouba transported me back to my trips to North Africa, the spices' flavors exploding in my mouth. Lebanani was wonderful. Prices are extremely reasonable. Staying true to its roots and the theological beliefs of the region, no alcohol is served. I'm Jewish, and as we left, I stopped to apologize for Israel's ferocity in Gaza and the West Bank. I wanted the staff to know that not every Jewish person believes Israel's actions are correct. Go to Lebanani House. You will be mightily pleased.

In my recent experience with Lebnani House, I really enjoyed the cuisine. I had the Shish Tawooq chicken skewers, which were delicious. Additionally, the service was excellent, and our waitress was attentive and friendly. We also shared the hummus trio, which was so good with the bread. We also had a flatbread, which was flavorful but a bit greasy. However, I did notice when arriving that there was food residue on my plate and lots of food crumbs on the chair I was sitting in, which, due to the backing, would have been difficult to remove. Additionally, the restaurant itself was a bit non-cohesive, having a lot of decorations which were individually interesting, but together a bit mismatched.

I love Lebnani. The food has always been incredible. The atmosphere is super charming. The staff is as friendly as can be found anywhere. The only reason I gave four stars is that the last time I visited, in October, the pacing of the meal was pretty intense. No matter when we ordered plates, they all seemed to come immediately and at the same time. Our table was too full for us to functionally dine, due to volume our party ordered. And the servers rushed the bill to us very quickly. I kind of felt like I'd been shoved out the door with too little time to full experience our meal. I know restaurants have to turn tables to profit, especially on a Friday night, but I feel honestly a little cheated by it. That said, every dish was as perfect as ever.

A colleague recommended this place to me and said everything they had was delicious but make sure to get the house mushrooms... and that I did. Dined in for two people for a late lunch and were quickly seated. The inside is so cute and feels so luxe. We ordered the house mushrooms, beef shawarma, and jordanian mansaf (normally only available on Fridays but they made extra from a large party order). I wasn't originally going to order the Mansaf but was upsold the item. It ended up not being something that my palate liked, but the portions were HUGE and I took it home to eat it with sauces that I had. It was very lamb-y and on the drier side. However, everything else we had was delicious and I will definitely come back to try what I wanted to order initially (kafta in tomato sauce).

People have been loving Lebnanii House and with good reason. I met the fam here for a weekend lunch and the place was PACKED. Reservations - they take ''em so you best make 'em. You'd never know this used to be an old school Pizza Hut (the kind with the tabletop Ms Pac Man) because the interior is gorgeous. Lots of deep blues, flowers and really interesting lighting. Perfect for groups and nice enough for date night. The menu goes far beyond typical hummus, shawarma and falafels and includes lots of dishes I've never seen or heard of before. Know that portions are HUGE and perfect for sharing so bring a group or plan on leftovers. We started with the hummus trio ($13) which was 3 giant bowls of beet, pesto and spiced hummus served with delicious fresh baked bread. This is the creamiest hummus I've ever had and the pesto version is hands down the best I've had anywhere. That was followed by chicken basil rolls (delicious), halloumi, a couple of stews that I can't recall the names of (but were delicious) and a giant flatbread that was so fresh and perfect. I think I'm forgetting other things but we ended up with a mountain of food! Service is genuinely hospitable and kind and the prices are a great value for what you get. I cannot wait to go back and try more things

I have been wanting to try Lebnani House since hearing about it a few months ago. We tried one of the fried cheese appetizers. Where can you go wrong with fried cheese? I got the mixed grill. The chicken shish tawook and kafta kebabs were my favorite of the 3. The steak was also amazing. Everything was so flavorful. I got veggies as a side. There were so many things on the menu that I want to try. I will definitely be back.

The server was rude from beginning till end. At first I thought I may be over reacting, but repeated actions confirmed and people in my party also said the same. Her name is Joelle. I will never go here just because of the experience on my first visit. I would prefer shawarma house close to UWM campus.

Love the contemporary atmosphere, the friendly wait-staff, and the interesting Levantine specialties. It's our third visit. The drinks (all non-alcoholic) are pricey, and most of the entrees are around $20. The Friday special (lamb shank) was dry, so the Yoghurt sauce is necessary. I would have preferred the juices of the lamb. The skewered chicken (or beef) is dramatic, but not particularly flavorful. Their version of pita is interesting, especially with some of the hummus varieties. Generally, the Levantine foods are basic, with some interesting herbal flavors, but this is not haute cuisine-- nor does it need to be. Four of us pretended it was a nice trip to the Middle East.

Lebnani House continues to be one of the best restaurants in Milwaukee. I've never had a bad dish here. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The space itself is beautiful and prices are very reasonable for the quality of the ingredients. Take your friends and family here. You will not be disappointed!!!!

This is my first time trying Lebanese food. I'm not really into Mediterranean food but this place has really good food! I didn't know what to get so I relied on our host to choose. They are vegetarians and mentioned that the meat here is excellent but we politely had them do all the ordering. We had the following: Pita bread with 3 kinds of hummus. Bread was fresh and soft, the yellow hummus was spicy, the purple one was mild but I didn't get a chance to try the green one. There was 16 of us after all! Lentil soup was delicious! I expected like an Indian lentil but this was better! Detected a lemon flavor I think but no traces of lentils. 2 kinds of salad, very rich in dressing, not your boring salad at all! Potatoes were a bit overdone, too crispy. Our host did order the rice with chicken for us and veggie style rice for the rest of the gang. Rice and chicken were super tasty! We had a lot of leftover rice and they asked if we wanted it to go. Out of politeness we said no thank you thinking some people could be very particular about having non veg items in their fridge. And I also thought that declining it could also be an indication of impoliteness. The next day, they served alot of leftovers for lunch at home and one of them was the vegetarian rice. I ate that to my heart's content! Falafel which I didn't have a chance to eat, there were 4 in a serving. Alexia our waitress was super and did a fantastic job attending to our needs. Next time, I'll venture into more Mediterranean food. I knew this place was gonna be good due to its high ratings in Yelp!

We had a fantastic experience at Lebnani House. We came out to celebrate an accomplishment and we feasted. The service was terrific, as was the food. The halloumi and mixed grill were our favorites, and the fattoush was also very good (though sour if you get the pomegranate version). Overall we enjoyed the food variety and would definitely come back again!

Beautiful interior, great service, a little loud when it's busy (of course) but not enough to be a problem. Everything we ordered was delicious. My only "critique" is literally just the plating of the Lebnani House Beef Shawarma. While beautiful and a statement, practicality wise it was a bit difficult since all the meat is on the skewer and the plate it comes out on is a bit small, mostly only fitting the rice you get on the side. Nonetheless, still worth getting because that's how good it tasted! Would definitely come back again and want to be more adventurous in trying dishes I'm not as familiar with.

Our evening began with what felt like a touch of segregation - we had a reservation and were seated in the corner in an area off the main dining room in a separate area. Once seated, another party of our same Asian decent were seated right next to us. We aren't starting off very well here. Our food was very tasty and well seasoned - ordered a mixed kabob, hummus, tabouleh, and kibbeh (very good). Average sized portions. Wanted to order multiple dips but we were only two people to eat two full orders and inquired about a smaller portion to no avail. Pita was freshly prepared and enjoyable as well. Server was good and fulfilled his job nicely except for not being able to accommodate my request.

I've had better food at the deli counter in a grocery store. Atmosphere is very nice however the food is poor. If you like eating gravel, the Kafta is for you. Falafel is very dry and salty, meat is over cooked, vegetables are raw, "pita" with shawarma is as thin as a napkin and they do not serve alcohol.

Great place great people delicious food. Service is also on top. Nice place to have a great meal with your family or friends. It's fresh.

very yummy lebanese spot!!! the complimentary pita and hummus was so good. i thought the beef in the mixed grill was tender and grilled perfectly, exactly how it should be done. the potatoes were probs my favorite tho!!!! all the spices were mixed in really well. i thought the chicken fatteh was okay, not my fav and the pita pieces def got soggy after some time. super nice restaurant too, great as a sit down spot!

Our group of 8 are at Lebnani House for my sister's birthday and I could not have better things to say! We took the approach of ordering a bunch of different options and sharing. Our server had great recommendations and was so friendly and on top of things (we can be a chaotic group when it comes to decision making). We tried various flatbreads, chicken Schwarma, and more! My favorite was the hummus trio, which had 3 different flavors to try. The bread was so incredible we asked for a box to take it home. 10/10 experience and I would definitely recommend eating here with a big or small group!

The food here is amazing!!! Made an order for pick-up and was not disappointed. I will definitely come back soon and most probably to dine-in as the restaurant looks pretty nice too.

I cannot comment on the ambiance as we never dined in. The service for what we typically buy is for the Turkish coffee and the bread basket. The staff should know a man who comes in from time to time a gets a few bread baskets, and those are for me. I love their bread and coffee!!! For those aspects they get the rating below.

Service. Atmosphere. Flavor. Lebnani House has it all. I was really excited to try once I saw the online menu - bonus points for having photos of nearly every single menu item. The restaurant itself is very clean and aesthetic, loved the booths - very comfortable! Our waiter and all of the staff were extremely attentive, friendly, and helpful. Food came out quick! We ordered: Hummus with pine nuts (unbelievable! Soooo smooth and had a lemon-y flavor. I literally ate some by the forkful it was so good) Zaatar and Cheese Manoushe (almost like a pizza or flatbread, suuuuper yum. Great flavor and very fresh) Falafel (super moist on the inside but crispy on the out and flavorful, the tahini was really smooth and delicious as well!) Kafta Kebab (very aromatic, lots of herb flavors and extremely tender!) Jordanian Mansaf (Fridays only, extremely tender lamb shank with aromatic rice and a yogurt sauce that was so flavorful and unique) This is the most excited I've been about a meal in awhile! I can't wait to return and try more. We definitely ordered more than we needed but we couldn't decide on only a few things as the whole menu is so appetizing. This place is top tier! Phone did not eat first unfortunately so I only got a pic of the hummus but presentation was beautiful on everything.

Went in seeing all the high reviews but a little disappointed: the food is mediocre at best especially for the price point.

I have known about this place for several months and was so excited to finally try it out, and guys, it lives up to the hype! The actual restaurant is beautiful - the decorations can even be seen from the outside and definitely make it seem like a place you need to be! The inside is bright and clean. We went with a reservation made a few days prior and were seated right away. We were given the option of eating in the main dining room or on their patio, which was an enclosed space with heaters. We decided to eat on the patio because it was a bit quieter than the main area, but it did get a little chilly towards the end and about halfway into our meal, we were the only ones on the patio which made it really quiet - by the end, we were wishing we were in the main area. We skipped the mocktails (no alcohol served here), but would definitely love to try them the next time - they looked really good! We ended up getting several different dishes as there was so much we wanted to try! We got the muttabal, halloumi, grape leaves, cheese and zaatar manouse, and batata harra. All of it was truly very good! The muttabal was very similar to baba ganoush, with the exception of tahini, I think. The flatbread they served with it was EXCELLENT. It was warm, soft, and delicious all on its own and even better with the muttabal and batata harra. I didn't know what to expect with the manoushe, but the crust was crispy and the flavor from the zaatar was very homey. I would say the food is not pretentious at all, but they do it very well. Though rare for us, we decided to get dessert even though we were stuffed. We decided on the umm Ali and my husband got a single Turkish coffee to go with it. The dessert was good, but very sweet personally and I'm not sure I would get it again but my husband enjoyed it with his coffee quite a bit. The staff were overall pleasant. Our main waitress took excellent care of us, but the waitress who brought the coffee and our bill didn't say a word to us or even smiled.

The food here is excellent, as is the ambiance and service. Highly recommend! I can't wait to go back and try more.

If you're wanting to try a new cuisine, or are already a fan of Levantine cooking, you have to visit Lebanani House! The service was great and their food is so flavorful. We had Kenza as our server and she took great care of us. The inside of the restaurant is gorgeous with very comfortable seating and beautiful art decor. It's overall a little "pricey" but it's worth every penny for the authenticity!

Three words: get the hummus. Beautiful, clean, and enchanting environment. The food tastes so fresh and bright. Very authentic cuisine.

The food was so good! I'll definitely come back to try more. You can park in the lot. The inside is decorated so beautifully and so pretty!

Do not sleep on Lebnani House. This is in the top five meals we've had in Milwaukee. The hummus is like a cloud - so light and perfectly smooth. The beef is cooked to tender perfection - no knife needed. If you are lucky, you'll get bread straight from the oven. It was worth almost burning my mouth for that bite (although even not straight from the oven the bread is fantastic). The chicken? No dry chicken breast here. It was juicy and seasoned so well. The staff was appropriately attentive, the food arrived in a reasonable amount of time - all around great meal. My husband is hard to impress and he's already said he wants to go back soon.

Right when you walk in, the ambiance is set by the gorgeous tree in the center of the restaurant. The service was fast, but not rushed. I am still thinking about that House Chicken Shawarma. Absolutely fantastic

Great food! Awesome service. The chicken shawarma and basil lemonade were very tasty. I recommend the hummus.

Pita bread was so yummy, and the basil lemonade really refreshing. I also enjoyed the Muttabal (eggplant) and thought that within the mixed grill, the chicken was especially flavorful and lamb was cooked perfectly tender. Went by myself and received outstanding service. Interior was modern, clean, had a good mix of families and couples.

We walked in and were pleasantly surprised by how modern, bright, clean and nice the restaurant was! Like we were going for a casual lunch - but the decor turned out to be more upscale than we thought. The menu is big and looked great and we were lost in what to get. After a long discussion, we got the hummus pine nuts, lentil soup, falafel plate, Chicken Maqlouba, Chargrilled Colossal Prawns & Kafta with Tahini (for three adults). I am a huge hummus and lentil soup fan so I am very picky in those two things. They hit the spot - not overly seasoned and tasted authentic. The pita bread that comes with the hummus was fresh and hot out of kitchen and fluffy and big! The falafels were served crispy and hot. The appetizers were all on point and we would recommend getting them. Now the entrees. I must honestly say they were less impressive than the appetizers - don't get me wrong they are still good. The Chicken Maqlouba was recommended by our server so we were very looking forward to it. While we enjoyed the very flavorful soft rice, the chicken on top was dry. The Chargrilled Colossal Prawns were great and juicy - loved it! The Kafta with Tahini was also good if you are a lamb fan like me. They were like two flat meatballs made of veal and lamb and the lamb proportion is bigger. Meaty and definitely on the heavier side with heavier use of spices and salt. For the side, we all liked the yummy seasoned rice more than the grilled veggies. The service was good but a bit slow. The ambiance was great with a few big families and small friends groups around. Parking in their lot was very easy for us.

We had a professional dinner for an interviewee. Kenza was our waitress and was very entertaining with good recommendations. They let us sit on the outside, covered patio which was more private and had a great ambiance. Overall, it was a really good experience. I've been here for dinner with my family personally, but I would also say that it's good for professional group dinners as well.

Had my first visit last night and loved it! The space has a beautiful modern look with a few middle eastern touches in the dining room, and we were seated on the covered and enclosed patio the had an open air screened roof. My friend and I shared the Hummus Trio and Chicken Basil Rolls. Then I ordered the Mixed Grill and she ordered the Chef's Mskhan. The Hummus Trio features a beetroot hummus, a pesto hummus, and a bekmaz hummus. I could not find bekmaz on Google, but one of the servers said it was a spice. They were all great, but the pesto was my favorite. The housemade pita that came with it was great, and actually, the server had a fresher batch come out of the oven, so he took ours away and replaced it with the batch that came right out of the oven! Great service! The Chef's Msakhan reminded me of a flatbread pizza. Marinated grilled chicken is cooked with sumac, olive oil, and onions and placed on crispy housemade taboon bread. The Mixed Grill features grilled veal, kebab of veal and lamb, and grilled chicken. I chose a side of rice instead of fries. The meat is served over another housemade thin flatbread. Every bite was delicious! We had no room for dessert, so maybe next time, and there WILL be a next time and a time after that, too! I feel I'm the last one to go here, but if I'm wrong, make a point to visit!

We've been here twice so far and we loved it both times. The food is always great and the options are plenty. We tried mocktails, multiple entrees and desserts (pics from last visit for desserts) and we have yet to have something that we don't like. The atmosphere is great - relaxing and enjoyable. The restaurant is new and very very well maintained. The music is always nice and just the perfect level where you can enjoy it and still have a conversation. The service is probably one of the best part - everyone is nice and smiley. They are quick and really try to take care of their customers. I definitely recommend to stop by if you want an actual Mediterranean experience and great food

I was searching for food in the area last minute while visiting in Milwaukee area (Greenfield). I got a take out order from Lebnani House and I am glad I found this place! I I was in a hurry but I definitely plan to come back! This place is incredible serving classic Levantine cuisine/Middle Eastern fine dining cuisine also while showing Arabic hospitality! They serve a mix of Syrian, Lebanese, Jordanian, Palestinian and Armenian dishes. I walked in to pick up my to go order and the interior/ambience was stunningly elegant inside with unique design! It was blue inside with exquisite decor including a blown glass chandelier and a lush pink and white flowered tree! I ordered the Lebnani House Beef Shawarma which is Chargrilled tenderloin beef with chargrilled vegetables, onions, and tahini sauce. I also ordered the most incredible Lemonade with Basil drink while waiting for my order! The lemonade with basil was quite pricey ($10) but well worth it as I believe they make it fresh! It was so delicious, refreshing, with a well balanced flavor of the lemonade and basil! I drank that basil lemonade so fast I was sad when there was no more left! It was seriously one of the most unique delicious drinks I have ever had in my life! I looked more at their menu while waiting for my pick up order. They serve Middle Eastern courses such as salads, cold/hot mezza (appetizers), fukhara (vegetables and meat cooked with spices in clay pots), grilled meats such as kafta, and much more! When I finally got my to go order of beef shawarma! It was flavorful with exotic spices, tender, and fresh! I enjoyed my meal very much with the beef shawarma because the nice chargrilled vegetables and onions also added extra flavor! My meal was pure perfection! I was very intrigued because I don't know a-lot about Middle Eastern culture but I plan to come back and visit Lebnani house in person for the full dine in experience! The ambience was very intriguing, romantic, and elegant. Lebnani house is definitely a perfect place to go for a romantic date night or a great way to impress someone on a first date because of the unique ambience and exotic food menu. I don't believe there are alot of restaurants in the area like Lebanani! The foods that were coming out the kitchen door looked and smelled incredible! I think this is a great place to experience Arabic hospitality, culture, and a taste a fusion of different delicious exotic foods of the Middle East! I will have to do an update as I really can't post more until I try more of their menu! :)

My husband and I were like kids in a candy store here! It was so hard to make a decision on what to order and the menu was very extensive and a tad overwhelming, but the staff was very helpful and we didn't regret anything we ordered. We only wish we had room in our bellies to order 20 more things. The food: Batata Harra: SO GOOD. My husband is Spanish, and this reminded him of the Spanish patatas bravas, which is quite the compliment from him. I personally liked them even better than the Spanish version. The eggplant and beef fatteh was unique and flavorful. Eggplant smothered in olive oil with cheese and strips of veal, how could you possibly go wrong! Absolutely delicious. I ordered the mint lemonade because of the raving reviews, and the flavor was good but super super potent. I kept diluting it with my water and I would recommend ordering it, but maybe asking for an extra glass and putting 1/3 of the lemonade in 2/3 water. *Important note for all the wisconsinites out there: no alcohol served in this establishment. The house pita bread they bring you was everything I dreamed of. We ordered the mixed grill to be able to try a couple of the meats and I personally favored the lamb kebab, but the chicken was a close second. You can order this with french fries or veggies and we ordered the grilled veggies. I was slightly disappointed with the veggies because it wasn't really much veggies: it was tomatoes, onion, garlic, and a pepper (the only actual veggie, IMO). The service was very attentive and friendly, and the owner was even out and about helping his staff and chatting with tables. I only gave it four stars instead of five because of two things that affected the experience in my opinion: 1. The ambience is lacking. While there is gorgeous decor, the lighting is pretty harsh (needs to be dimmed a lot) and gives you the vibe of being more in a cafeteria then a nice restaurant (which it is!). 2. We were slightly disappointing to not be able to order a beer or wine with dinner, but now that I know I would absolutely still go back because that food is worth it. The owner told us they will be rolling out with a patio shortly! Can't wait to enjoy some of their delicious grilled foods this summer with a refreshing glass of lemonade. P.S. If you go on a Friday, you have to try their weekly Friday special: Jordanian Mansaf. Unfortunately it was sold out for the day when we went, but lots of patrons around us had ordered it and it looked simply delectable. Next time!

One of the best middle eastern restaurants I've ever visited! Beautiful experience with great food and ambiance. We ordered 2 apps: the Batata Harra - Amazing fried potatoes mixed with coriander, spices, and garlic that reminded me of Spanish patatas bravas. Eggplant and Beef Sajiyyeh. The eggplant was grilled and the olive oil, cheese and baby veal combined to be truly incredible! We shared the Mixed Grill entree mainly because we wanted to try so much more so we went with a sampler plate: Grilled veal, chicken, and kabab, served with French fries or rice with grilled vegetables. Just like everything else we had, it knocked our socks off! The meats were tender and flavorful. It's hard to find food that's cooked this well, layered with so much flavor while also providing top notch service! The menu is a little overwhelming but the staff was extremely helpful at making decisions and explaining the variety found on the menu. Bottom line: Traditional food made with quality ingredients at reasonable prices. Too many amazing things to try, so we will definitely be back to sample some more!

The food was a tad spicey but the flavor made me shut my eyes in utter emotion at how great it tasted with a small hint of spice which didn't bother me all too much! The flavor took over my emotions and took to another place of pleasure! The waitstaff was so pleasant and didn't let a dish that had been cleaned off sit to long as everyone took to making sure unnecessary dishes got removed right away! The decor and music were appropriate for the style of food they were cooking and made me and my girlfriend at ease and relaxed and able to enjoy the food and the experience with joy! First time here and I will sing there praises to the world as it's going to be one of our favorite places to eat!

This is one of the most enthusiastic five star reviews I've ever given to a restaurant. This place is absolutely outstanding! Started with a little shot glass with the soup of the day. It was a great start. Flavor was excellent but also subtle. Then the Beetroot Muttabal came with bread. Some people don't like beets, but the way they were incorporated into this dish was wonderful. Halloumi cheese was delicious and served artfully. The cheese flatbread was a more kid-friendly dish. Yummy but not as good as the others. One of my favorites were the house mushrooms. The sauce in those was excellent. Grape leaves are an old favorite and the ones here were better than most. We also split the spicy Batata Harra. These potatoes were cubes and fried to perfection. Adding the juice of the fresh lemons it was served with made this dish even better. Last we all shared the fried fish with herbs and rice. Gorgeous presentation of a delicious dish. It wasn't what we think of here as "fried" fish. It was more fresh and not coated in anything other than herbs and spices, with a wonderful sauce and sides of grilled tomatoes, pepper and a shallot. Service was excellent and attentive. Decor and ambiance were on point and the restaurant was spotless. I usually wait to write reviews til the weekend but this place deserves immediate accolades.
