We walked up the other night and had a great time. Food and ambiance was excellent. Live music with a Bossa Nova trio in the setting perfect. I would recommend this as a hidden gem to go to for live music and great food.
Came from Canada for authentic Lebanese and was not disappointed. Everything stood out with proud flavors, the rice was the surprise stunner - accompanied by labneh, tomato salad and grilled meat... with handmade Pita beyond comprehension. Worth the trip! We will be back.
Fantastic food, great ambiance, and even live music! On a Thursday yet! Spent 2 hours dining and being entertained.
Full bar; extensive menu and superb service. No waiting, a lot of tables and TV's (if the live music isn't enough...). Seems like a family-run restaurant that's been around for approximately 13 years. A "Hidden Gem," to be sure! (Sorry about the attached photos...red back lighting distorted the colors).
We'll be returning soon!
Loved the food here! The seafood kebabs were perfect with buttery scallops, moist salmon and perfect shrimp. Loved every bite.
The fresh Mediterranean salad was gorgeous 😍
We returned during eat in service in March and were not disappointed!
The atmosphere and service was warm and inviting and the food was perfection.
The best Mediterranean Restaurant in Seattle!!! We were celebrating our five year wedding anniversary and we came across this place based on the great reviews previously. The flavor, the experience, the quality is all above and beyond. We have had the best time with Walid and look forward to more times coming into this town specially to visit this restaurant. We are so thankful for the food and we look forward to more times to coming and visiting in the future. We recommend you visit this restaurant you will not be disappointed.
Superb date night! What great service! The server was so kind and was able to make all the adjustments (vegan & gluten free and then dairy free) for allergies and intolerances without hesitation. The decor and interior was elegant and had great artwork and made for a wonderful experience. They also have a nice outdoor dining area. The food was flavorful and also very clean and we felt healthy and balanced rather than stuffed and slow. Lamb kabob was tender but had good char on the outside. Hummus creamy, tabouli was refreshing, dolmas warm and savory. Portions were good sized and had value but no comprise for taste. We want to get back and see the love belly dancing and music and maybe even taste some hookah.
Eager to dig in, forgot to take pictures of the meals: the halibut special was superb and a generous helping; lamb platter was delicious and enough for two lunches from the leftovers. Wonderful friendly service. Excellent dining experience. Definitely will return.
Walid and is capable staff are absolutely fantastic. This is an incredible untapped gem for 2 person meals to a group celebration of 15 to ALL out bashes! They've got live performance stage, lighting and dance floor all right here!
Harissa has consistent excellent food. Last night a small group of us had the Eggplant Salad, that comes with their wonderful bubbly spiced bread fresh from the oven, Kofta Kabob, the small
Lebanese House Salad, a large bowl full, and the Angel Hair pasta. What a feast, everything tasted delectable. I highly recommend Harissa.
We came early had this wonderful authentic place to ourselves. I had great lamb kebobs and my wife had a salmon dish. We took out dolmathes and baklava. Owner is a really interesting, well-traveled guy who tells great stories and provides food fit for a sultan.
The food was amazing! We got the combo appetizer, chicken kebab and lamb plate. The pita was amazing. House salad wasnt anything special but the ingredients were fresh. Place wasn't busy on a Saturday, but we were early eaters. Saw a dj setting up as we were leaving. Apparently, live music and belly dancer saturdayss at 9pm. Will be back for that
Shared a delicious meal last night with a couple of friends. We had the grilled eggplant salad with a huge house made pita which reminded us more of naan than the packaged disks you might get at other places.
Our friend had a house salad which came with a variety of chopped fresh veggies and a tangly citrous based dressing. Main dishes where the lamb kafta skewer with tomatoes, peppers, and onions. Cooked to perfection and served on a long thin platter over rice. Companion had angel hair pasta in a tomato sauce with garlic and peppers.
For dessert we had to try their baklava. Served on a square plate, neatly halved for sharing under a drizzle of honey ... ah, such a fitting finish to a fine evening.
Really fun place to bring a group. Walid is a charming host who brings such care to his wonderful Mediterranean dishes.
Our group of 8 had a fantastic time and the food was amazing. We’ll be back soon!
Just had dinner on a Friday night. Good food and service at a reasonable price. Was surprised at how unbusy it was considering the quality, large servings, and cost.
Walid and his capable staff are wonderful. It's such a terrific space with an incredible spectrum of possibilities. From the four-person lunch to the 15 person celebration to all out bash, the built-in band, performance & dance spaces are ready to go. A fantastic space for a wedding ceremony, reception and party all right here.
Cost is affordiable. Great food.
Trio played Brazilian music.
It is good. Music on Thursday and Friday.
Service by Walli, the chef, was superb. He is a friendly guy and an excellent chef. We had more food than we could eat. All of it was delicious! The seafood special included salmon topped with a small crab cake, scallops and shrimp with mixed vegetables of green beans, cauliflower broccoli, bell peppers, grilled potatoes, and rice. Served with a house salad. The bread with our appetizer was soft and tasty. The Harissa Villa Rosa wine was good.
Ordered delivery, which went well, and the packaging was fine. Got lamb chops and hummus with pita. Everything was really delicious, especially the sauce on the lamb chops. Wish there could have been a few more pieces given the price.
