FUREN — Restaurant in Nicosia

Service: we're eating at the restaurant, a man orders food and they bring him a tray with fries placed directly on it. He asks the cashier why his fries aren't in a paper bag like the rest of the clients, and the cashier answers that this is how they serve fries. The man asks for equal treatment and says that this is not hygienic (as he can clearly see the difference in service quality and food safety). The cashier tells him to take his money back and leave, throwing him out of the restaurant in front of everyone. This is by far the most racist and inhumane situation I've ever witnessed! Food: I've been a customer since they opened (both dine-in and delivery). I've sent them many reviews about the food quality and taste; when I gave my feedback directly to the owner, he acknowledged that the wraps and pie are too oily/greasy, yet no action was taken several months later. Sadly, the recipes and taste aren't at all Lebanese. It really shows that the owner is only an investor with no background in the F&B industry! Atmosphere: During summer, there's not enough air conditioning to cover the restaurant area. The toilet area was hell as the ACs don't reach the 2nd floor, and they weren't at all clean. The staff weren't welcoming, as if they were forced to come to work! In summary, a total disgrace to the...

Furen is a must-visit restaurant in the heart of Nicosia. From the moment I stepped in, the vibrant atmosphere and welcoming staff made me feel at home. The authentic Lebanese flavors, especially the dishes from their wood-fired oven, are simply outstanding! I highly recommend the zaatar, falafel, and lahmajoun — all bursting with fresh and fragrant herbs and spices. Their kafta and chicken taouk were perfectly grilled, tender, and juicy. Whether you’re dining indoors or enjoying the outdoor seating in the lively Eleftheria Square, the ambiance is fantastic.

The service was impeccable, and the restaurant offers both dine-in and takeaway options, making it convenient for all kinds of visits. If you’re in Nicosia and crave delicious Lebanese food, Furen should be at the top of your list. Can’t...

το φαγητό εδώ είναι πολύ νόστιμο με απίστευτη λιβανέζικη γεύση!

The wraps here are absolutely delicious—each bite is packed with flavor and authenticity. I’ve tried many places, but this bakery truly captures the essence of Lebanese cuisine. I already tried kafta, tawouk and soujouk! I've also tried Zaatar and the cheese mix manoush!

What I love most is that every visit brings the same incredible taste, reminiscent of the flavors you’d find in Lebanon. It’s comforting to know that I can always count on this place for that genuine taste! If you’re looking for a spot that serves wraps/manouch that are as close to the real deal as you can get, this is the place to be. I’ll definitely be coming back for...
