The staff, food and atmosphere were excellent. I understand the owner is closing his doors and retiring. Good for him however this establishment will be missed! Good luck to everyone and to anyone who hires any of the staff! Here’s a personal recommendation- hire them they are well trained and you won’t be disappointed!

I wanted a romantic spot to take my fiance for his bday. The place had a great review and nice photos. We were surprised with how few diners were there but Wednesdays are their slowest night but it did not take away from the taste, presentation , quality or attention to detail of food. We selected Journey for 2. We had lovely appetizers, a platter of food to share and take home as well as a delightful combination of desserts. We even met the owner, chef afterwards. The decor is from all over the world, cheerful and colorful. I highly recommend this wonderful Lebonese restaurant!

Wife wanted Mediterranean for her birthday and chose this place based on reviews. Had high expectations coming in and the ambiance and decor was great. Food was good but not worthy of the incredible reviews. And something about the appetizer sampler didn’t sit well with my wife and I (daughter was fine and didn’t eat the appetizers). Temper your expectations.

A restaurant with a ton of character and good food. I don’t understand how a little quirky nice place like this can be almost empty on a Friday night.
