Beit Rima - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic. I have not had better Arabic food in the city. The food service was good, and the quality of food was amazing. Good food takes time, so the wait was reasonable.

This place was busy and had a little wait, but now I know why. My experience was amazing! I've never had Arabic food before and I will definitely come back. We received a generous amount of food. The hummus with the pita bread was so good. We also tried the hand-kneaded bread and the squish, which was served over a sweet yogurt. The falafel came with a different, delicious yogurt. The potatoes had a unique taste that kept me coming back for more. The chicken plate was the final highlight; the chicken kabobs were so good, and the rice was a great addition.

My experience at this restaurant was wonderful! It's a true gem with a simple menu and a self-order system. The ambience is both cozy and eclectic, creating a unique atmosphere. The food was amazing and honest, with the butternut squash with labneh being absolutely delicious <3.

I went here with a friend and loved it! There was a line, and you need everyone in your party to be there to get in, but the line moved pretty fast. The place itself was quite small and packed, and very chaotic lol (I couldn’t hear my friend sitting next to me). But the food was AMAZING! I got the falafel (it’s $1. 5 per falafel), which I prefer so no leftovers! I also got the pita and hummus and potatoes, all of which were so good. Definitely recommend, and a good price for all.

Hands down one of the best Mediterranean food experiences in the city! I absolutely love their mezze platter and falafels. Most of the time, the service is great, but on our most recent visit, one of the waiters was very pushy. He even let another couple who arrived after us order before us while we were in line, which was a little shocking. Despite this isolated incident, I still recommend anyone to come visit because their food is amazing.

My experience at this restaurant was quite negative. While the food was okay, the service was the main issue. During dinner, a server repeatedly asked if he could take our plates away, even though we hadn't finished eating. He brought to-go boxes and placed them aside while we were still dining. About ten minutes later, the server became more insistent, stating the table was needed and implying we should leave, despite us clearly not being done. This was the third time he approached us with this urgency. When I inquired about a time limit for tables, the server rudely replied that there was an hour limit, making it seem like we were obligated to leave. Another server confirmed the need for the table due to busyness but admitted no warning was given beforehand. No apology was offered for the uncomfortable treatment. Had we known about any time restrictions, we would have chosen another restaurant. This experience made for a very uncomfortable dinner, and we will not be returning.

My experience at the restaurant was centered around their delicious food offerings. I particularly enjoyed the Mezze Sampler, with the muhammara being a standout favorite. The baked halloumi was also a delightful warm cheese dish. What truly impressed me was the ability to combine different items in one bite, allowing all the flavors to mix incredibly. The food quality was rated a 5 out of 5.

I visited Biet Rima for lunch and had a mixed experience. The casual atmosphere and friendly service were definite positives. However, the long lines to order and the requirement to order at the counter were inconvenient. In terms of food, the halloumi was a bit too salty for my taste. The Ful was tasty and a welcome change from the usual hummus and baba ganoush. The Musakhan was nice, and the chicken seekh tawook plate was just okay. I did enjoy the hummus. A standout was the figs and cheese dessert, which I loved. The recommended dish was Ful.

My experience at this restaurant was quite pleasant. It's a nice place to spend some time and get good food. I particularly enjoyed their marinated chicken, which was pretty good. If you're in the area and looking for something different, I'd recommend giving it a shot. It might even become your favorite place. For me personally, I'm a bit spoiled by the other cafes around here, but I would consider visiting again.

My experience at this restaurant was decent, but not memorable. While the food was better than average, it wasn't anything I'd rush back for. The service and atmosphere were also just okay, rating a 4 and 3 respectively. Overall, it's a place that serves its purpose but doesn't stand out.
