    Really good food and kind service from a local restauranteur family I adore. The dining room gets a bit too loud in the evening though.

    We ordered several appetizers and had a couple of deserts. The tabbouleh, fried kibbeh, spinach pies, chicken shawarma, beef shawarma and bread were delicious. The only plate that needed some tweaking is the hommous. May be more lemon or garlic. The knefeh and baklava were good. The service is just amazing. Overall, an amazing experience. We will be back.

    Food and drinks were good but due to the high ceilings the noise level was horrible. Could not hear my friend who was sitting across from me. Don't think I'll return due to the noise.

    I dined at Seray on a Thursday evening with a girlfriend. We started with hummus, which needed more seasoning - lemon and garlic, at least - but was served with warm, pillowy pita. The bread was the star. I ordered the mixed grill entree, which was a generous portion of chicken taouk (kebab), beef kebab and kafta kebab, accompanied by rice and an incredibly delicious garlic whip. The beef kebab was seasoned perfectly, but unfortunately overcooked. The chicken kebab also was pleasantly seasoned, but the kafta was overspiced for my taste. My friend enjoyed her branzino. For dessert we shared the baklava, which had a lovely overtone of rosewater. The service was a high point of the evening. Nadine K was attentive without being intrusive. We were seated promptly with a friendly smile. If I return, I'll try the baba ghanoush and/or other appetizers, and will surely order my meats medium rare.

    Dining here was a lovely experience! The service was lovely & the food was incredible. We went for my mom’s birthday and it was a beautiful time. The restaurant is gorgeous inside with elegant decor & a very clean interior.
