The service was amazing. Everyone was hospitable and kind. The food (manouche) was all very fresh and delicious and tasted like authentic Lebanese manakeesh. The coffee was strong which is just my preference and the cafe was really cozy

I made the mistake of ordering the chicken sandwich and it was honestly terrible. It was basically a big piece of bread with almost no chicken inside. No garlic flavor, no seasoning, nothing — just dry bread. And when you finally hit a piece of chicken, it tasted old, like it had been sitting around and then reheated in the microwave. Dry, rubbery, and completely flavorless. I couldn’t even finish it. Maybe their man’ouche are okay, but the chicken sandwich is a disaster. If you’re thinking of ordering it, do yourself a favor and don’t. Total waste of money. In response to the owner: Thank you for your response. The distinction between aioli and garlic sauce is not really the issue. The problem is simply that the sandwich I received had very little chicken, very little flavor, and the chicken that was there tasted dry and far from fresh. That was my genuine experience. Reviews exist so customers can share their experiences openly. Suggesting that a customer should not express their opinion publicly because the restaurant didn’t have the opportunity to correct the situation is not how feedback works. I’m sure many customers enjoy your food, and I’m glad if your ingredients are usually fresh. Unfortunately, the sandwich I received did not reflect that standard. In the end, reviews don’t create bad impressions — experiences do.

We’re sorry to hear that we didn’t meet your expectations. Rest assured, our ingredients are fresh, and our homemade marinade is prepared daily. Regarding the chicken and cheese, we don’t use garlic sauce; instead, we use aioli, which contains a bit of garlic. We never promoted it as garlic sauce, and we would have loved to hear your thoughts on the site so we could rectify the situation and offer you something else you’d enjoy. Posting on social media didn’t help, especially since you were disappointed and we couldn’t make you happy. Hopefully, we can serve you again and ensure everything is to your liking. Thank you. I do appreciate your feedback and will never ask you not to post your feedback or experience . The only thing I wanted to rectify the situation on site right away so you will be satisfied and happy. Hopefully you will give us the chance for that . Have a good day

This is the second time we came here. The food ? Average. We asked for hot sauce. They brought cayan pepper and told they don't have the sauce. We had to wait to be seated, however we didn't get napkins, forks or any services!! For a place like that, this is weird! For the drinks, the lemonade was good. I don't recommend this place, since I gave two chances and not satisfied!

Chez Teta was a 10/10 experience. From the moment we walked in, the service was exceptional. They took their time explaining the menu and sharing their recommendations with genuine smiles, never making us feel rushed — yet everything came out so quickly. It’s rare to have that balance of attentive service and efficient turnaround, especially with a large order. You can really feel their Lebanese culture in the way they host — warm, generous, and sincere. We truly felt like family. While we were waiting for our big order, they even served us coffee on the house, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated gesture. And the desserts are a must. Everything is made in-house and absolutely delicious. The sesame sponge cake is light and unique, and the pistachio rose cake is perfectly balanced and full of flavor. Exceptional hospitality, fast service, and incredible food. We’ll definitely be back!!

This place doesn't take reservations... So you show up and wait for your turn to be seated. Friendly staff but very limited places available. Good food quality though a little bit pricey... I recommend Halloumi bacon... alson hummos and muhammara were very tasty (ask for freshly made hot bread with it). Deserts are limited and tend to sell out very fast... We end up eating the Nutella Halva manoucheh, the only available option... But I don't recommend it as it was overcooked and more like a dried Nutella pie.

We arrived here for lunch on Saturday afternoon, it was quite packed but we were able to get seated in 15 mins. The waiters/host were very welcoming and friendly I ordered lahm bi ajin, zatar bread, falafel roll, coffee, hummus, cardamom latte and rose+pistachio cake... Everything tasted very fresh and yummmmy!!

I’ve been coming here for a few years and have always appreciated the excellent food, espresso and service. Today we came as a group of 5 including a couple with an infant for brunch. Within 40 minutes we were made to feel rushed by the staff who asked twice if we were done despite someone clearly still eating their manakeesh (more than half the dish was still on the plate and they were attending to a crying infant). I completely understand the need to ensure tables are turned over in a timely fashion on a busy weekend, however this felt aggressive and unfortunately ruined our experience. As such I don’t see myself returning on a weekend nor recommending this place for brunch.
