By the time our check arrived, I was impatiently eyeing the annoying kid aimlessly wandering around the patio dining isle with jealousy- I had been sitting for two hours and I, too, wanted to get up and move my body. The service here is impossibly slow, and don't assume you can circumvent this problem by being a Pushy Penny (I concluded this based on Laura's review, I was wrong) or going with a non-specific looking Mediterranean date (usually works, but made no difference here). There is one hostess/bus person and one server for about 10-15 tables. We were served an expired Estrella that was so flat it looked like syrup (they replaced it with an Almaza after explaining they don't carry the other two beers we attempted to order off the menu). The food here is more plentiful than delicious, but some things definitely made this place worthy of a return visit. The shish kebab and various wads of beef that constitute the combination were average and heavy on the ground cumin, the chicken kebab was pretty yum. The standout was the mezze, which was an unexpectedly impressive panoply of Lebanese appetizers: thick lebni, cold stewed okra and green beans, raw fuul (ground fava beans), ackawi and Buglarian feta cheeses; zahtar made with toasted sesame seeds, sumac, and coarse ground thyme; as well as some less than tasty/fresh versions of the usual (tabloueh, baba ganouj, hummus). The pita is made in house - warm, puffy, not at all yeasty. We also tried the manakeesh (pita with zahtar), which was excellent. Overall, weird location, bad service, good food, full bar, patio dining, substantial wine selection (or substantial purported wine selection may be more accurate), open late (2am on weekends)... if only waiting for the check here wasn't tantamount to waiting at the mother fucking DMV :(

I love the babaganoush here. The kibbi is my favorite. Everything I've had here is awesome, and they also have a happy hour. Relaxed and chill little place, patio dining too. You can even catch a belly dancer on Friday and Saturday nights. They have a lil' hookah area if that tickles your fancy. If you do get food to go, check to make sure they've included everything. There's nothing like missing tahini sauce for your kibbi...makes me mad.

BEST RICE IN TOWN! I'm not as big on Lebanese food as I am on Persian food but their kafta is still real good.  Their rice is something from heaven, so good I usually order an extra side.  Also, their pita bread is made fresh right when you come in, soooooo nice!  Their service is great and friendly!

Khoury's was good the first time I went sense then I live close enough I've gone three more times each time not as good as the first, including the food.The service also was really slow. I have deff. had a better pita. The first time I went though I really liked it. I am not sure if they'll improve or not but I tried enough times I don't think I'll be going back soon.

I came here for a dinner recently and we started off with this numerous assortment of appetizers. It came with little dishes of pickles, hummus, okra, green beans, salsa type thing, and you eat it with puffy pita bread that comes right out of the oven. The pita bread is SO good, fresh and hot. I had the chicken salad with a lemon olive oil dressing. It was ok. One the ground sirloin to me was not that good and reminded me a bit of lamb, maybe it was the herbs but I didn't enjoy it. The rice is good and we had a pitcher of pomegranate sangria which was pretty delicious. If I get come back here, I'll be sure to try the Hookah here.

I had lunch takeout. Their pita bread is REALLY good. Right out the oven, fresh hot and delicious. Hummus has pickle and pickle juice in it. Thought that was a lil different. Taste not bad though. I got the beef kabobs. I really like the rice, but the kabobs were just ok. I didn't like the dessert Sabiet(?). Not good, not worth $6. This place has spacious setting, outdoor seating. It's a pretty relaxing place. I live so far from here, but I would drive here for their food. Thumbs up for this place.

It was our first time dining here the decor was very cozy and relaxed. We started our experience off with hummus and Lentil soup. The Lentil soup had to be THE BEST in Vegas. The Bread they delivered to the table with the hummus was fresh out of the oven so that was tasty. Now I am no Mediterranean food expert so I ordered the meat combination that had 5 different prepared pieces of meat. The server was friendly and explained the various pieces of meat. The food was simple but delicious. It was nice having a variety to choose from. The meat portions were just right not over bearing. I would definitely go back again.In speaking with the server he told us that they have live belly dancers on Saturday nights. No mediterranean restaurant could go without the Hookah which they have on Wednesday nights with a DJ that sometimes goes till 3 in the morning. This is something to check out for sure.I agree with the staffing level here it was pretty slim but when we went there was only 3 other tables. So it was completely manageable.
