Oh this place is great! The portions are huge and always delicious. If you love Lebanese food, you will love Byblos. It has been in business a long time and the owner is the most pleasant man. Some of the staff have worked there a long time so it must be a good place to work. They do a great business. The menu has the usual offerings but they also have specials which are great.

We met friends here for dinner on a Friday. A small family run place where the owner will probably also be your server. The interior is very plain, tables and chairs suitable for a lunch place. The menu was quite large. We had the Mediterranean bruschetta and the Moroccan zaalouk for appetizers. The bruschetta was quite large and had tons of flavor. It was easily large enough for four people. The zaalouk was smaller and very good but not as flavorful as the bruschetta. There were so many tempting choices for entrees that we had trouble deciding. We decided on the walnut & date chicken tangine and the zitoune chicken tagine. Both tangine arrived with the traditional tangine top over the plate. The walnut and date tangine was served over couscous and was sweet, crunchy and just plain yummy. The zitoune chicken was in more of a broth surrounded with small potatoes and served with bread. The chicken was very delicious and we soaked up the broth with the bread. For dessert, we had the red velvet cake (only made once a year) and the almond cake. Both were absolutely amazing- full of flavor but not too heavy. The perfect ending to a scrumptious meal.

Located right in Canton Center is Grape Leaf, a Lebanese, family-owned restaurant which dishes out some very tasty dishes. On my numerous trips there, mostly for takeout, I've been very pleasantly pleased by the quality of the food and the overall experience and service. Their hummus is outstanding and their wide variety of dishes available is pretty impressive.I'm a fan of their hommos ($6.50), their baby bhanouj ($7.50) and many of their other appetizers available. They're easy to share and I frequently snack on a few things while I wait for my food to be ready when I'm there and don't order in advance for takeout. Their sambousik ($1.65), a fried pastry pockets stuffed with ground beef, onions & spices is one of my go-to snacks.I've rotated many dishes for their main and don't really have a favorite - their moussaka ($8.50) is a nice vegetarian option for the eggplant lovers and their kafta kabob ($12) always hits the spot for me as well. They have so much available that I keep discovering new things. One thing that was recommended to me by one of the staff members is the lamb, which I plan on trying next time. Everything I've had has been tasty.They also have outdoor seating and on weekends, when the weather is warm, they even bring a special oven out and bake fresh bread. Oh and you can also order online, which is super convenient and there's plenty of street parking as well as a private lot. What more could you possibly need?

If you're looking for a good spot with many healthy options, great portions, and great value, the Gyro and Kebab House in Norwood has you covered. For those that might be new to Turkish cuisine like I was, it has elements and flavors similar to those from Greece and Lebanon. The flavors are so fresh and vibrant. The Babaganush is outstanding.
