Sunnin Lebanese Café

Patience is Beautiful
الصبر جميل

In Arabic, there is a proverb that says “patience is beautiful”. After years of digging for succulent chicken kebabs and tender strips of shawarma, I have alas found the perfect Middle Eastern restaurant in the Westside. Hidden down the street from Persian Square, Sunnin Café truly caters to the most aromatic of palates at an affordable price. Alas, you don’t need to travel as far as Beirut to get a taste of Lebanon.

Shish Tawook (Chicken Kebab)
Chicken breast marinated with garlic grilled on a skewer served with rice, salad, garlic sauce and pita bread ($15.00)

Combo Grill

One skewer of beef kebab, chicken kebab, and kefta Kebab served with hommos, rice, salad and pita bread ($18.00)

In comparison to other Middle Eastern restaurants in the neighborhood, I feel like Sunnin Lebanese Café makes me feel like I'm eating in someone's home. It's not as exquisite as Mezze or Cleo, but it sure is tasty! I usually forgo the rice and double up on the salad because of their excellent lemon mint vinaigrette. If it's your first time, I strongly suggest the combo grill for a taste of everything!
