We ordered the largest platter and split it. There was lamb kofta, steak, chicken, shrimp, calamari, hummus, pickles, beet, French fries (or rice or baked potato) and flat bread. It was delicious! I enjoyed the lychee martini, we split the steak hummus, and also split the baklava. 100% recommend. Staff was amazingly attentive, we were sat right away, food came out in a reasonable time. Atmosphere was a highlight. Disappointing dinner overall. The chicken was overcooked, dry, and completely tasteless. The fish portion was generous but, again, lacked any flavour — not even a hint of salt. The server did check on us several times, and when we mentioned the chicken, they kindly brought a smaller replacement dish. Unfortunately, by then I had lost my appetite, and the second dish was just as bad as the first. The food may look good in photos, but sadly, it had no flavour at all. I wan’t recommend this restaurant to anyone… also waiting was very long. If there was negative marking I would have given it. First of all the wait times are more than 30 mins. So be prepared. Even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. Took 45 mins for our food. We were six people. Ordered mix grill. 77$ and the food was bare minimum. Plus the presentation was useless. How can this be a close to a 5 star restaurant - with pathetic presentation. The chicken shish kebab is 15 $ with 4 to 5 prices of meat.. lamb shish was 23$!!!!! Once again useless Chicken liver was good at 21$ and the Six chicken wings were 23$ Plz avoid.. mock tail pitcher at 19$. Although the drink was just soda water plus concentrate - so not really worth it. I’d suggest avoiding all restaurants of the Denarau island resorts. Completely useless. If you can take a taxi and try the outside restaurants. But one will need a taxi for in and out unless happy to go on bus. (Takes 30 mins one way)

The atmosphere here was the highlight, the lighting was great and right on the beach providing a cool breeze. I ordered the chicken skewers and the chicken breast was over cooked making the chicken tuff making the food not very nice, for the price I would expect much better. The staff was very nice and easy to communicate with however I would not come back due to the food.

Some of the most authentic Lebanese Dishes I've had outside of Lebanon. They got the spices and tastes just right. I can recommend the vegetarian platter which could have easily fed two people. Great cocktails too and a service with a smile. I felt like I was back at the beach in Byblos. ♥️
