Food was really good, but also the atmosphere and vibe! It looks really nice on the inside and the view of the bridge on the patio is refreshing as well. Our server was very patient but also accommodating. Nice place to hang with anyone! The only caveat is it’s pricey, but I believe it makes up for the vibe and location.

Excellent service and we enjoyed our meals. Had a starter of their excellent humus. Meals ranged from the Mezzeh Platter (choose 4), beef Shish Kabob, Kibbee, and Port Saiid with beef. All were excellent and well-flavored. The house-made pistachio baklava was perfect and a delightful way to end the meal.

I’ve been going too El bash’s for years. It will be my last time.. we was charged for gratuity for 3 ppl on the menu it says a party of 6. This was because the first plate they brought to my daughter had hair in it. They came back with the same plate 7 minutes later. I use too work in this industry. The first plate took 25 min but the second one took 7 min? My daughter was the one who said mommy it’s okay. I’m hungry anyways. God is watching. NEVER again. When it comes too my child, nope I do not play. I don’t care if it was me.

I was there on Saturday 7/16/22 at approx 7pm. We were seated in the dining room and you could hear loud pounding music on and off the entire time. We ordered the the dinner for 2 at 35$ pp. The appetizers were very good and the entre was tasty but the rice came to us luke warm. The waitress was slow and overall service was fair at best. Sorry to say great potential as everything was tasty but overall disappointed.

Great kebabs with veggies nicely charred, 2 thumbs up. Lots of things to try on the menu. Fish Tarator tastes like my favorite dish from the old “El” with tahini and onion sauce, some loved it some didn’t though. Nice wine choices, excellent bartender.
