We were on a vacation in San Diego in March, and we were trying a different restaurant every day. The last day we tried Alforno ,which I think is the absolute best restaurant i’ve ever went to. The food was so fresh and very delicious and they had quick service, the owner was very friendly, and I think the restaurant really deserves 5 stars.
Sooooooo good! This is the best and most authentic Lebanese food I’ve had in a very long time. From the moment you walk in the door, to the moment you walk out, you are treated like family. The food is easily a 10/10, and the service is equally impressive, fun, friendly and extremely personable. I have a gluten allergy and the woman who helped with our order (I believe it was the owner) knew exactly how to guide us. We told her what we liked and she sent out the perfect order for us. This place is an incredible gem and I’m so happy we discovered it! We will be back a lot! ?
I came in today and it was so amazing I had to rave about it immediately. I came in with my boyfriend and a friend of ours. We split the zataar Flatbread, the lamb and kibbeh. Every bite was made from heaven. The different flavors just busted in your mouth. The lady in the front picked one of our desserts accompanied by knafeh and I feel like I've been missing out on something great my entire life.The employees made the experience unforgettable. So much laughs and smiles. Make sure to stop in for a fantastic meal.
My friends and I all ordered different dishes to share and everything was amazing! The owner was incredible and so involved in making sure we had a great experience! This place was an amazing find! We're definitely going back!
Great food, we are from Beirut and this was some of the best Lebanese cuisine that we have had outside of Lebanon (and in fact inside Lebanon).
The food is phenomenal!! The dish pictured below is a lamb, garbanzo bean, yogurt dish that my family and I could not get enough of!!The owners provide not just great food, and awesome service. They give you a total immersive experience. They are generous and kind. So much so they are willing to give the shirts off their backs. And in fact the owner did so!
Ordered take out for the first time tonight and it totally lived up to the hype. Probably the best restaurant I’ve found since moving to the area. The food was phenomenal and the staff was so nice. You can tell they really take pride in what they do. I can’t wait to order again and try more of the menu!!
Great variety of vegan food. Lebanese cuisine is for the most part gluten free and vegan so there was no need to ask for accommodations. Delicious plates. New flavors.
Friendly staff, great fast service
Husband and wife team are simply amazing. Both of them are hands on and make sure you have a great experience. The food is home style cooking , there were 4 of us and we over ordered as the portions are huge and we wanted to try many things. Everything we ordered was excellent, fresh and well prepared.Will definitely be back. Thank you for your hospitality Samia.
