Semsom — Restaurant in Groningen

Nice lovely place and staff. Food was also good.

However, we were disappointed in what you get for the price. As a group of four people, we got the 8 mezzes deal (20 euros p.p). And each person got ONE falafel, ONE cheese stick, ONE small meat bread, 2 dips, a small bowl of chicken, a small bowl salad, a small cold cauliflower dish and bread. We all four had to share carefully for who gets what (for 80 euros in total). Some of us were still hungry. For someone who grew up with enjoying Lebanese food, and wanted to let others try it, it was so disappointing. You barely get the full experience of an authentic Lebanese kitchen if you barely get to...

The only star I’m giving is for the interior design of the place. Nice marketing, I can give you that! However, the food was barely satisfying and quality didn’t correspond to the price. In addition, the dessert I order, was not only a two bite-size dry attempt of Kunefe, but also a total scan (price/quantity). After the staff asked us whether we liked our food we explained the situation about the dessert and it was certainly not taken into account. Absolutely no form of compensation. It was my first and last visit of that restaurant. Wouldn’t recommend. Down the street there is a nice place for fries. Go there, it’s...

The restaurant is in a nice area. It so very beautifully decorated (super insta/tiktok perfect) and the food is even better than you’d expect. We ordered some mezze (appetizer) to go after eating because of how great it was.

And the service is amazing! A lady was serving us and she was so helpful in explaining items and also checked in regularly enough that it was helpful. The manager that checked us out (or owner) - was supremely nice! Our son got injured and the manager was so kind - he came over and even shared a nice story to make my son feel better ❤️

Top place that I will visit often once...
