Alrabiah restaurant — Restaurant in Hengelo

Not often experience such a dissappointing exeprience at this so called libanese restaurant

Arriving there on a quite night in summer holiday time we, as always, expected and hoped attention, service and nice food.

It appeared the manager was sitting at the terrace smoking and drinking a beer. Not really professional and attractive. He apparently was unable to communicate in a hospital way, just dropped the menu and walked away. Came back to clean the table but hardly communicated, looked a bit bearish.

Many dishes on the menu were unavailable, as an make up he served 2 extra appetizers which was ok. The (different) dishes we received all appeared alike and appeared of low quality.

There was nothing libanese on the main dish, every kebab place could serve it. All had same looks and herbs

We had a social deal - 11 tiny dishes, 5 cold and 6 warm. When we arrived, there were guests at 2 other tables only. We got cold dishes reasonably quickly (delicious hummus and a spread made of grilled pepper and couscous, the 3 others - nothing spectacular) but for the warm ones we waited over 50 minutes (!!!). I asked the waiter (a man with very basic English) twice about our warm dishes - once he said it was being prepared, the second time - the kitchen was very busy. When we got food eventually, it was nothing special and literally WARM, not hot. Not worth waiting for, in hindsight. Disappointing. Probably not going to visit this...
