Lamees brings a cozy, rustic Mediterranean feel to a quiet neighbourhood. 🇹🇴✨ It's not flashy—more of a relaxed hideaway for honest cooking. Service was warm, and the manager checked on us. Dishes arrived at a comfortable pace, perfect for a laid-back dinner for two. Here's what we had: 🥙 Trio Dip – smooth, smoky baba ganoush, creamy classic hummus, and aromatic truffle hummus; great with warm pita 🍗 Kibdeh Chicken Liver – rich, earthy, caramelised; bold flavour 🦪 Organic Blue Mussel – my fav. Plump, sweet mussels steamed in a fragrant broth that begged for bread. I love the soup. 🐙 Fresh Tagliatelle Octopus – al dente pasta with tender octopus; light but satisfying 🍨 Bozza – creamy pistachio-coated ice cream; cool, nutty, not too sweet 🍰 Kanafeh – warm, crispy shredded pastry with stretchy melted cheese and sweet syrup 👉 Pro tip: Eat them together – cold ice cream with hot, gooey cheese pastry. Get both. A lovely spot for date night. Would go back for that soup and dessert combo. 🔥

-trio of dips： classic hummus, truffle hummus, and smoky eggplant，each offering its own balance of creaminess, earthiness, and tang -grilled octopus：was tender with a charred edge, brightened by lemon and olive oil -Halloumi：added a salty, golden-seared bite, simple yet satisfying -The wagyu beef tail tagine：was rich and slow-cooked, with deep flavors that highlighted the meat’s marbling -the kanafeh: crisp pastry, gooey cheese, and fragrant syrup, a perfect mix of textures to end the meal

If you are looking to escape the usual over-commercialized dining districts, look no further. We found this spot while seeking out some authentic alternatives, and it is easily the best Middle Eastern food I’ve had in Hong Kong. The Food: Authentic & Soulful The quality here is on another level. You can tell everything is made with care: The Pita: Made fresh right next door—warm, fluffy, and perfect for the dips. The Dips: Absolutely sublime. The flavors are bright, fresh, and authentic. Oxtail Tagine: A total showstopper. The meat literally melts in your mouth and the depth of flavor in the sauce is incredible. The Service: Genuine Hospitality The atmosphere here is warm and welcoming, which is a rare find. The staff are friendly and genuine, and the chef/owner, Tarek, is clearly passionate about his craft. He took the time to chat with us and even gave us an extra dish to try, which was a lovely, generous touch. The Verdict: With very reasonable prices and world-class flavors, Lamees is a must-visit. It’s authentic Jordanian food served with real heart. Highly recommended.

Lamb is not my preference but their lamb rack is a must try item! It’s a busy restaurant with many locals visit. They made the Mediterranean food so approachable and tasty! This was my second time visit

I was there for dinner before going to Kai Tak for concert! The food was good and reminds me the taste of Turkey😋 The food presentation were also nice! I like especially on the bread and the chicken (juicy and the sauce are just right!) There is outdoor area for sitting, good if the weather is not too hot. The restaurant is quite full, better to reserve table for dinner (lucky us to get the last two table for walk-in). The small minus for the restaurant is the staff, the lady serving us is not very friendly.
