My birthday weekend! Theatre first, then dinner, an early dinner! My partner was a little concerned about the amount of chilli in the pictures. Made a phone call during the week after booking and was informed that they have different options when ordering, with, without and on the side for the chilli sauce. Perfect. Starters or cold mezze, Anne had the hummus with bread. Not bread as in a roll or a slice, but a very big and thin flat wrap type, toasted and tasted superb. I had a hot mezze, Nights Mushroom. 2 large mushrooms covered in cheese, melted and balsamic vinegar dressing. Really nice. Mains - Anne had the Shish Taouq, chicken that had been grilled, came with salad etc and according to her was brill. I had the Nights Kebab, a hanging kebab, with salad etc and I ordered a portion of fries, so big I could not finish them all, which is unusual for me! Desert - Baklava of course! With a scoop of Ice cream.
Overall, the food was brilliant, the Lady who served us was helpful and informative. Was not rushed. Would of liked to of seen the Belly Dancers, but hey, an excuse to go another time!
Only minor thing, room temp was fairly cool. Looked like the Fan unit in the ceiling had failed.
Would I recommend, YES!
Other downside of the whole day, which is NOT Lebanese Nights fault, is the abysmal parking in Windsor or lack of, plus the £14.50 charge for...
Read moreThe hummus! Oh the hummus!! What was a chance punt taken just before 2020, when things were 'normal' Lebanese nights quickly turned to one of the places that shows how good food is done. The tastes are impeccable and even though sitting right under the wings of Windsor castle, you would expect a slight corruption and adjusted taste for the touristy crowd this menu doesn't seem to have been affected. Now, I haven't been to the fountainhead of Lebanese cuisine, and sadly with the current conditions that seems a no go situation, yet somehow I can with a great amount of confidence say this place is as close as you can get to some spectacular fare. Chef Faisal, who is half Scot and half Arab has channeled his deepest roots into the flavor and texture that he churns out and leaves no kebab unturned, literally. Highly recommend the hummus with bits of lamb in it, and the kebabs of course. Some of the other delightful surprises are the hot mezze and you wouldn't fall short on the aryas or the Lebanese flatbreads filled with meat. Try the kibbeh and the lovely grills or sit back and tuck into a leisurely vermicelli rice with some well grilled lamb chops. Top up with some of the desserts of which the semolina pudding comes on top. All in all, fantastic food to keep you moving till the lockdown ends, and the belly...
Read moreI’ve been to Lebanese Nights a couple of times this year and generally enjoyed the food so decided to go last night with a group of friends. We were the last table to leave that night, so as we were paying up I took a trip to the ladies which is located next to the kitchen. As I was washing my hands I saw something move in the reflection of the mirror. I turned around and saw a cockroach!!!!! I returned to the table and beckoned my friend to come over. We returned to the toilet and she confirmed it was indeed a cockroach and then we saw a second one crawling up the wall next to the kitchen door! I was horrified. (I also took pictures as proof) I told the waiter who didn’t seem to be that bothered and unbelievably said ‘this is windsor it’s an old town’!! I immediately reported this to environmental health upon returning home!! I will definitely NOT be returning to Lebanese nights! This establishment is a public health hazard until they get rid of those cockroaches! Should be shut down. (Update you claim that the review is false but since reporting your restaurant to Windsor Environmental Health it has been confirmed to me that after they investigated your premises they were indeed cockroaches that were found in...
