    Sitti is always a good choice of a place to dine with friends. They are about as consistent as you get with the execution of the food and the service is always good. I did find the Pita bread on this visit lacking in its usual airiness

    Sitti was an ok restaurant. It took a long time for the service and the food was good. It has a full bar, but specialty cocktails not spectacular.
    SittiResponded 1 day ago
    We are so sorry to hear about this! Was there anything specific about the cocktails or the cocktail menu, that was lackluster? I have made sure to talk with the front of house about the comments regarding service, so to improve upon the service you receive. Thank you so much, and we really do hope you come again in the future!

    Sitti Restaurant in Raleigh is a true gem! The warm ambiance and welcoming staff make you feel at home when you walk in. The Lebanese-inspired menu has flavorful dishes – the Kebbeh and Salmon were especially memorable. Everything tasted fresh, with authentic spices and rich textures that make each bite an experience—the perfect spot for a cozy dinner or a special gathering. I highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy delicious food with a unique, cultural touch!

    Food was great as always, service was very slow and unattentive, we would of spent more on wine and more food, but was never asked and for a slow night the staff was more interested in talking to each other than their tables..

    This was our first visit to Sitti and it was wonderful. We made reservations for four for a Saturday night and our table was ready when we arrived. Excellent service and excellent food. We had a nice large booth, and for 4 people was plenty of room. I felt we could carry on a table conversation easily. The food was delicious! We highly recommend and we will be back
