    The lamb chops 76$ were cold. The beef stake was over charred and cold from inside. The wrong dishes were being delivered to us the ones we did not order. The serving staff are poorly trained. I have come to Byblos several times but found the food and service subpar this time and unfortunately will be reluctant to return given so many other options. Did not get value for our money. I am telling you as it was.

    Not the same as it used to be. They have lost a bit of the authenticity I remember when going before the pandemic

    Stewart did a great job for us, very attentive . Food was awesome. The Host was grumpy , did not take our coats when we arrived. He showed us to our table and I informed him we would be two people less than initially booked , he mumbled something and left.
