Our Gaithersburg restaurant sits on the boardwalk at Rio Lakefront. Stop in for a mezze lunch, linger over dinner after a walk around the lake, or order pickup for a night in. The menu is built on Chef Rachid's family recipes, made from scratch with organic ingredients: hummus and dips, hot mezze, manoushe, halal grilled meats and Lebanese desserts, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Pair it all with a signature cocktail or something from our selection of non-alcoholic drinks.
