This is probably the best Middle Eastern food. I’ve had in a very long time. We ordered the sampler platter, which was ample food for two people. The falafel is probably the best that I’ve had in a long time, the chicken skewer was not overcooked and delicious and the pistachio baklava was honestly the best thing I’ve eaten in a long time. All of the other sauces and ingredients were spot on. Highly recommend.

This is probably the best Middle Eastern food. I’ve had in a very long time. We ordered the sampler platter, which was ample food for two people.

The employee working at Beirut Bites was really friendly and welcoming, and I was excited to try out Beirut Bites instead of trying my normal Mt Dora go-to's. Everything looked good, including the falafel which I spotted as ordered by someone else. I ended up getting the steak shawarma, which comes with a side of hummus and a sparse handful of fried pita chips. The meal itself was filling, however I found it overall just okay in taste - I felt like it was missing flavor/seasonings, something. I also thought the steak was a bit chewy. But, it was an incredibly busy day today, so perhaps this meal was just not at its peak capacity for deliciousness. I also purchased the side of pistachio baklava as it is one of my husband's favorite desserts. The baklava was pretty tasty, with that traditional honey soaked, flaked goodness. It wasn't drenched in honey which left it a tad dry, but less messy to eat and not as sweet (which I enjoyed). Overall, not bad, but I wondered if maybe I should have gone with the gyro instead for more flavor with the help of the tzatziki sauce.

🌯Food: 8.5/10 🍽️ Portions: 7.5/10 ✅Quality: 8.5/10 👩🏻💼 Service: 8/10 🧼Hygiene: 9/10 🍃Ambiance: 9/10 This is a wonderful family run restaurant, they are always so kind and make you feel right at home. The food is well prepared, flavorful and served at very reasonable prices. We ordered a falafel wrap, a regular falafel plate, a chicken shawarma wrap, tabbouleh, baba ghanoush, hummus with pita bread, spinach pie, baklava and an espresso. The falafel was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the shawarma had great seasoning. The baba ghanoush and hummus were smooth and tasty, perfect with the fresh pita. The tabbouleh was fresh and zesty. The atmosphere was cozy and definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!
