Byblos

This is a tasty spot with good prices! We started off with the Falafel, Meat Grape Leaves and Drunken Halloumi. All of them were delicious. For our entrée we split the Shawarma plate with hummus and tabbouleh. The meat was really tender. The hummus could have been a little more flavorful but it was still good!They have good service and plenty of parking (at least on a Wednesday night!)

Byblos is FANTASTIC. It's cheap, it's absolutely delicious, and the portions are large! This is perfect if you want Mediterranean food, but don't have an arm and a leg to sell that day.When you walk in, you'll notice it's both a spacious store and casual eatery. There's plenty of tables and seating to dine in, but it's a "no frills" kind of place, with no waitresses or waiters. They'll call you up, and you bring your food to the table yourself. Honestly, I prefer it this way. Another thing you might notice is that this place is CLEAN. The floors are clean, the shelves are organized, the hot foods area is immaculate, I saw zero bugs, the tables are neat, etc. A lot of casual eateries look a little messy, but this place seems to have great hygiene. I'm telling you, you have to try the food. It's PHENOMENAL the quality you get with this price. You cannot get such cheap delicious Mediterranean food anywhere else in this city. So many places are delicious, but expensive. Not here! It's so yummy and affordable with great portions. We've tried a good amount of items and I would recommend the:*Chicken shawarma or kabob plate - The chicken is perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and smoky. The rice is flavorful and fluffy. Both the hummus and tzatziki sauce are delicious. The salad is fresh and comes with a yummy light dressing that contains purple-ish spices I can't seem to identify, but love anyway.*Stuffed grape leaves - They offer both beef and vegetarian ones here, so options for everyone! I've tried both, but I personally like the vegetarian ones better, and although I don't know what's in them, I can attest that they're amazing. They're addicting, and you'd be temped to over eat way too much if you dine in.Aside from these items, they have a lot of dishes to offer as well as daily specials, I recommend just going in and checking them out. I promise you won't be disappointed.

So I was looking for something light and refreshing and you can never go wrong with good old greek salad. We had the lentil soup. Also the Greek salad with gyro meat. Service was really fast and very friendly. And the ambiance fell like it was homey. I would recommend.

This is the best Chicken Shawarma in the New Orleans area. Mason and the rest of the staff do it right, every time, and have been consistently bringing me joy through their food for years. This is a great counter service restaurant for a business lunch or lunch with a friend as well. There's plenty of seating and lots of options in the grocery area as well. To me, this is also the best of all the Byblos locations - by far.

Byblos is a true gem in the world of Mediterranean cuisine. The restaurant has been family-run for over 24 years, and it's evident that the owners take great pride in the quality of their food and service. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth and hospitality, and the place is impeccably clean.During my first visit, I had the pleasure of trying the Chicken Kebab plate, which was simply outstanding. The grilled chicken was seasoned to perfection, and the flavors were so vibrant that I felt like I was transported to the Mediterranean coast. The plate came with pita bread, hummus, lettuce, and a side of rice that was one of the best I've ever had. The rice had a subtle hint of spices that complemented the chicken and hummus perfectly.I loved the food so much that I went back with some friends for lunch another day. We also got to try their authentic Turkish coffee, which was a rich and flavorful treat. On the next day, I tried the vegetable platter, which was a delicious medley of eggplant, potatoes, brussel sprouts, and roasted cauliflower. Each vegetable was cooked to perfection, and the flavors were perfectly balanced.Lastly, I tried the chicken shawarma plate, and it was another hit. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the spices were just right. The plate came with a generous serving of sides that were just as delicious as the main dish.Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with Byblos. The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentically Mediterranean. The service was prompt and friendly, and the owner, Maison, was incredibly welcoming. It's clear that this restaurant is a labor of love, and I plan on making it a regular spot for myself and my friends. If you're looking for a great Mediterranean restaurant with delicious food and friendly service, Byblos is the place to be.

Absolutely LOVE this place!!!! Service is always great! The food gosh the food is absolutely amazing! The gyro plate is huge and full of flavor! A must go to every time I'm in town!

I like Byblos. I usually go alone and sit at the bar. The bar is pretty stocked and service is very quick. Today I was hungry and didn't want to drink. I only had sparkling water with lemon (euro style). I ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer, chicken shawarma plate w/ hummus and sauteed vegetables. While I was eating the complimentary pita bread and olive oil, the bartender told me about the sauces the chef makes. He brought me a little of the chili seasoning sauce. I enjoyed it with my shrimp, in my hummus and mixed into the sauteed vegetables. It was really good. Byblos is a nice casual spot with a full bar and outdoor seating.

Nestled where flavors dance and aromas flirt, this culinary hideaway serves dishes that sing on your palate.The shawarma's allure and lentils' charm make every bite a flavorful escapade. Forget the ordinary--here, each meal is a festival!

By far the best Mediterranean food in the Nola area! Been coming her for a few years and it's always consistent! People that work here are great as well!

My wife and I love the food, and usually eat here twice a week. Friendly, prompt service. But the food is what stands out. The beef is delicious, as well as the chicken shawarma and chicken kabob. The hummus is the best in town. Their lentils and lentil soup are top notch. Don't forget to finish with the baklava. It's consistently good, and one of our favorite restaurants.
