(Dear owners I read your message but cannot reply to it as google does not allow. Hence I’m adding a few lines here. Very sorry but I don’t agree with your mountains of explanation. I was born and brought up in the Middle East and lived mostly on Lebanese food. I know exactly what authentic Lebanese food is and I am sure you know what I mean. Yes prices are increasing everywhere but not the way you are charging. We dine out in very fine dining places and are well versed with the market price even today. Your restaurant is only about ambiance and presentation!) it’s another thing if you are fooling the Americans by calling it Authentic Lebanese. We as a family did show our disappointment and complained to the waiter but it did not help!!!This is not an authentic Lebanese restaurant with the exception of just one or two dishes on their appetizer menu. I was surprised to see vegetable lasagne on their menu but no shish taook or the Lebanese grill kababs which are supposed to be a main course in any Lebanese restaurant. The prices are super high and the quality of the meat I ordered from their appetizers was pathetic. Portions are very very tiny. We just ordered one hummus, one salad and plate kabab all from their appetizer menu (just about enough for one person) and we paid almost 60 dollars without any beverages. It’s just an over rated place. We gave the waiter our feedback. But it didn’t help!!!

We just returned from a very special dinner at Zenola to celebrate our daughter's 6th birthday. We all loved the food, including her, (especially the grape leaves, spinach pie, sea bass, stuffed zucchini, fresh-baked pita with delicious olive oil, and (mmm!) pistachio cheesecake) Knowing it was her birthday, the chef-owner came out and let her ask questions about Lebanon, and about the food. They had put a glittery happy birthday sign on the table, and then surprised her with a delicious dessert with a candle to blow out. The food was superb, and the effort they made to make her feel special made it an evening we will long remember.

The best dining experience ever; great authentic, fresh, most delicious food, presented elegantly. Friendly wait staff, beautiful decor a very warm and inviting atmosphere.

Delicious authentic Lebanese food in a warm and elegant atmosphere. We ordered a variety of appetizers, entrees and desserts and enjoyed them with our friends. The fresh hot Lebanese bread was scrumptious. The chef owner Samer was outstanding. Will definitely go back.

Fabulous spot. I enjoyed every bite and loved trying the large variety of things they had. Drinks were fabulous too. Definitely a favorite of ours in Vienna ?

This was the best food I’ve had in a long time. Everything we ate was phenomenal from the mixed grill platter to the veggie lasagna. We also ordered every dessert on the menu. As with the rest of the meal, they were amazing. The cheesecake was amazing. The chef came out to check on us a few times and was so sweet and friendly. I cannot recommend this place enough! We will certainly be back.

The food us delicious, flavorful. The chef is extraordinary here and you can tell he pour his heart and passion into his recipes. Can't wait to visit again. Loved Lebanese cuisine.
