Neighbourhood gem
Great for outdoor dining
Good for special occasions

In Lebanon, food is an essential part of all family and social gatherings, with bold flavors, colorful vegetables, and vibrant proteins fresh from the marketplace. Prepared simply and with passion, our cold and hot mezze, various grilled meats, kebabs, fresh seafood, and creative homemade desserts offer something for everyone, including an abundance of vegan and vegetarian dishes.
At Amar, small plates are meant to be shared, and we encourage you to soak up the aromatic spices and herbs of the Mediterranean and the Levantine coast with our handmade pita bread baked fresh in our wood-burning oven. Inspired by the creative souls who embrace old cultures and new experiences, our cozy space is the perfect mix between rustic and refined, the nostalgic and modern. The Kurban family and their attentive staff invite you to linger over a meal and experience their genuine hospitality.

We arrived ahead of our friends and my lady and I each had a cocktail at the bar. 2 drinks $50! Ridiculous! Not even free pour. Each measured. The place was hopping and energetic and what I mean by that is it was LOUD! We were seated in the back booths which were not as loud (to start). Waiter took his sweet ole time to come to our table then would disapear for long periods and that trend stayed the same all night long. A nice pleasant person when we had his attention. The Spicy Hummas was fantastic! We also had ordered 2 other appetizers but finished the Hummus before they arrived. The Octopus and Cauliflower while seasoned nicely had obviously been forgotten (front of the house and kitchen not in sync) and were reheated and sent and they tasted like they had been reheated. The Octopus had lost it's moisure and the Cauliflower was not soggy. We thought about sending them back, but with sevice being so poor, we marched on. We all shared various things and all were great. The Bronzino is highly recommended! The Sfiha, Arayess and Makanek were all delish and full of flavor. Since the cocktail prices were so high, after the initial drink at the bar all decided (besides 1 domestic beer ) to stick with water. All of us would have had a couple of drinks otherwise. So overcharge us with exhorbinat cocktail prices and we will simply pass. Amar's loss $. Bottom line, the food is fantasic, the cocktail prices absurd $$$$, the noise level needs to be addressed especailly when the belly Dancer does her thing. You literally can not talk to the person next to you. We still love the place but will not have cocktails anymore...just water.

Excellent service, ambiance and food. Had the chicken Shish kebabs with roasted veggies($5 up charge) and my wife had the salmon. Everything tasted excellent. I wish the nicely sized portions were bigger because the food was delicious and I wanted even more. Great restaurant!

This was our first time at the restaurant. We had a group of 5 New Year Day. Ordered several appetizers which all came out fast and delicious. The entree was also very fast fresh and delicious. Middle Eastern flavors all from my childhood. We will be back!!

Overpriced poorly prepared food for New Years Eve. Very disappointed.
Amar Mediterranean Kitchen & BarResponded 3 days ago
Thanks for the review, Liz. We're truly sorry to hear that your New Year's Eve experience at Amar Mediterranean Kitchen & Bar did not meet your expectations. We take pride in our food and it's unfortunate that we fell short on this occasion. Your feedback is important to us and we wish your provided us a more details about what was poorly prepared in your opinion ( we served 300 guests on NY Eve and we only had amazing feedback and mainly 5 stars reviews ) . We hope you'll give us another chance to show you the high-quality dining experience we're known for. Best, The Management Team
