6780 Miramar Rd. #110. San Diego. (858) 586 - 7700.
This restaurant is located right behind Carl’s Jr in the food plaza. Its a small but comfortable place. Hai and I decided to eat here because I wanted to try something in Miramar. I don’t eat in Miramar that often so I thought it would be a great opportunity to review some place new!
Today I ordered the Combination plate for $7.99. It includes beef, chicken, and kafta kabobs with basmati rice, hummus, salad, and pita bread.
At first sight, I thought I was jipped on the rice. Being big rice man, I love to have my rice to meat ratio of about 2:1 or so. But after eating all my rice, I started packing my meat into a pita bread spreaded with hummus and cilantro. Result? Tasty!
About the flavors here, I thought it was interesting. I haven’t had Lebanese food before but if its made like this, then I’m all up for it! The chicken here is marinated with lemon sauce, the kafta was tangy, and the beef was just about right. The end result, I walked away full and happy. Yippee!
Taste: 8/10
Presentation: 2/5
Service: 3/5

Visiting from Seattle for the week and tried Taste of Lebanon. The food was fantastic. The rice was superb. Gyro plate and fava bean stew really hit the spot.

Recommended by colleagues of my daughter. Stopped by on a whim a few weeks ago and now return one-two times weekly. The food is excellent; we have tried several of the plates, sandwiches and appetizers and are working our way through the menu. The owner is friendly, hard-working; the facility spotless. Recommend to anyone who will try/enjoy middle eastern food; hoping to have Taste of Lebanon in business for many years to come.

Except for typing too fast and omitting “times” prior to the word “weekly”, how should I moderate it?

Hi Sheri,
Your comment has been fixed. I’m glad you enjoy the restaurant!
It’s been a while since I’ve eaten here. I think I will stop by this place sometime this week too.
