Cafe Lebanon

Not very good. Falafel lunch plate came with three falafel balls and a tiny ramekin of tahini and a pile of bland rice pilaf and some shredded parsley on the side. Menu said hummus was included but had to ask for it after meal was brought out. No pita was served with the dish.

Falafel balls were very tasty but overall experience was way sub-par

Doubt I will ever come back

Nothing special here.  I went for dinner with my girlfriend and her 9 year-old.  

The atmosphere is awesome.  The dude playing the sax in the corner was especially cool.  Seriously, if I were on a date, I wouldn't hesitate.  The martinis are exceptional. *****If you're a single 20-something dude, this would be a great place to pick up cougars.  PLUS THEY LOOK RICH*****

My lady got the pan seared chicken, which was actually really good.  I got the lamb shank and was moderately disappointed.  The kid got a steak, which was AWESOME and cooked to perfection.

The hommachoes, or whatever they are called, are pretty fantastic.  An add combination of hummus and jalapenos on pita chips can't go wrong!  

The reason for three stars was because I was hoping for something a little more.... ethnic.  Maybe I got the wrong dishes, but this definitely left more to be desired.

The worst dining experience ever! My husband to be went & our son went there a couple weekends ago- the one in east longmeadow- and it was the worst. We approached the restaurant and had to wait for a while to be even acknowledged. I don't know if they were short staffed or what. Someone finally greeted us. They asked if we had a reservation, we said no. She rudely said, "well, you can site outside on the patio (its an inside patio). We liked the food in downtown Springfield, and still wanted to give it a shot. We we said yes. So we waited and waited and waited. Finally a waitress came over. My husband and I ordered our food and all this woman did was try to up sell us! It was very, very noticeable. I'm not talking about a side salad with your meal. I'm talking about, oh would your son like some french fries, or a side of rice or some juice. Now why would I order JUICE for my child when his sippy cup is right on the table. Come on. It was just a whole turn off. From our waitress trying to up sell us, to waiting forever, and then being banished to the 'patio' so rudely. The food was ok, but nothing special. Definitely better places to grab a bit to eat in the Springfield area. It was a good place as Cafe Lebanon, but now as Nadims. Everywhere you look they are being advertized on the radio, on groupon, in Costco. What they should focus on is treating each and every customer that walks into their restaurant with respect and give them the dining experience they deserve.
