First time visiting and loved the food!!!! Service and atmosphere was also outstanding. It’s not often to get such great service and food quality around the city these days but can honestly say was pleasantly surprised and will definitely be back! A must try in mount pleasant/Vancouver for middle eastern food. You won’t be disappointed! Dessert was also sooo good. Tried the baklava and Knafeh, perfect way to end an amazing meal.

The quality of the food is consistent. Very delicious and good-sized servings. Ordered the lunch special with the chicken skewers and the sampler for 2 people. The only thing I can think of is parking is very difficult to find because of nearby construction. So I had to park 1 block away. The Turkish coffee is tasty and they give so much for a small size.

Our food was amazing! The only downside is that their Lunch and Dinner menus are different, so we couldn’t try their famous crispy cauliflower at Lunch time! Dinner portions are probably bigger, but so is the price.

My boyfriend and I love coming to this place! Simon and Ola are always so welcoming and make every visit a great experience. The food is delicious, and their Chai Mezcalita is absolutely to die for! Thanks for always making us happy!

Pastel colours - all my favourite - are the background to a spot where cool and serious professionals hang and talk - during the afternoon rush - with peeps who have a style uniquely their own. If there is no tables, take the pleasant bar where beautiful faces with charming responses makes one feel at ease, and so it follows that one feels comfortable, eating a delicious wrap enveloped in a crowd that makes you lean. Bigup to the crew at Nuba, delicious and beautiful! A place of attraction with a coming together of things different but the same

It was my first time trying Lebanese food, so I didn’t know what to order at first. But thanks to Simon's recommendation, I enjoyed a delicious meal paired with great wine. It was a wonderful dinner! I will definitely come back here.
