What people say about Suraya
It is common to hear guests talking about the fresh pita bread, hummus, labneh, and grilled meat dishes at Suraya. The ambiance of this restaurant receives almost as much credit as the food itself. The garden becomes the choice place to eat when the weather permits, and many reviews include comments on good service as well as a dish that fits well with sharing. Some fewer reviews claim that the atmosphere of the restaurant is rather crowded and that the bill comes out unexpectedly high.
About Suraya
Suraya is a Lebanese restaurant, market, and garden on Frankford Avenue in Fishtown. The cooking at Suraya is based upon traditional Lebanese family recipes but extends beyond into the Levant, which is why the menu flows effortlessly from dips and small plates to wood-grilled foods.
The mezze is one of the reasons to go to Suraya. Hummous, baba ghanoush, labneh, and other small plates allow the party to build the meal gradually, while the kebabs, seafood, and hearty meat dishes make sure that the dinner becomes an entire event rather than just a meal.
It is also an evolving space throughout the day. The brunch or lunch period may be a little more relaxed, while the dinner service offers the complete restaurant experience with cocktails, arak, and a wider range of dishes from the kitchen.
If you need any Lebanese food in Philadelphia, this place offers a wide selection of dishes: typical foods, some rare regional dishes, and a bakery and café part, as well as the possibility to have the meal outside in the garden.
