Fakhreldine review by Anon
I should have been dubious when i managed to walk in at 9.30 on a Friday night without a reservation... Admittedly the atmosphere in the restaurant was nice. A cool bar, with a nice view over over the park. The food: The mezze was good - |I had spick lamb sausages, houmus and a fatoush salad, which were tasty, althoug a bit too citrussy. The main course was not as good. The mixed grill was a bit too dry and bland for my liking. My girlfriend had steak with a pommegranite sauce. In her opinion "nice once you got used to the wierd taste". In my opinion, it was a complete clash of flavours, which didnt gel together at all. I am all for trying wierd new combinations of food, and have found many that i like when executed well, but this was not one. I dont think you should have to "get used to" the taste of any dish. overpriced for the quality! The service was good - attentive but not intrusive , although the waiter didn't once crack a smile. Overall, a nice location, good for drinks at the bar and mezze, but i wont be going back for dinner.
