AI Summary

Thornbury's buzzy wood-fire Lebanese share-plates room, from sujuk dumplings to fall-apart lamb.

A vibrant, Beirut-inspired dining room with projections, communal seating and a visible wood-fire kitchen. striking to look at, but frequently criticised by reviewers as uncomfortably loud during peak hours.

Mountain bread and mains cooked to order in a wood-fire oven, a long communal table, Beirut-inspired interior projections, and a hands-on owner personally involved in event planning.

Strong Lebanese heritage signals from the chef's background and dishes, though a few reviewers felt certain plates strayed from classic Lebanese expectations.

Split opinion. many reviewers say the food justifies the price, while others call set-menu pricing (around $80-85 per head for groups) and extras like bottled water overpriced.
