GEES RESTAURANT & BAR REVIEWS

We’d been meaning to visit for a while, and weren’t disappointed! The food was very nice, the surroundings were lovely (we sat in the conservatory area) and although it was a busy Friday night, it wasn’t too noisy. Also, ladies’ bathroom is classy - these things matter! Food came very quickly (we arrived at 6.30pm, so it might get busier later). Many thanks!

I was treated to a meal here on Mother's Day. It was a very wet day and somehow miraculously my family had gotten to the restaurant very early but very soggy. We were a party of 5 and they very kindly seated us early. The food was amazing. So simple but so good. The kids portions were really good. Despite being very busy, service was polite, helpful and prompt. Can't wait to go back!

Great food though pricy. Make a reservation because it’s always busy. They have a menu indicating gluten free, nut free, dairy free - just ask for it. Service could be either great or meh.

COMPTOIR LIBANAIS OXFORD REVIEWS

Was wondering where to go for lunch. Decided to walk into this restaurant, still wondering what to have. The lady at the front was friendly, smiley and even helped me with the menu. I wanted something quick and light for lunch

Amazing experience! First time trying Lebanese food! Actually impressed!! Will definitely try again! Food was very good and tasty and service was great, very friendly and smiling people!

Perfect location to have lunch. Close to the city center! Anyone who is coming from the train station passes the place! Prime location, friendly staff! Only the male toilet wasn't working! Requires a Handwash for customers! Authentic kitchen with unique design! Mixed grill, green tea in a pot, and one kofta kebab was 45£.

ZA'ATAR BAKE REVIEWS

This post specially to share how delicious their new English breakfast. We had different breakfast experience. Highly recommended! The portion was enough for my husband and I. The price include a cup of tea too.

The restaurant's decor added to the overall experience, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. A special thanks to the staff for their warm welcome, particularly Mr. Abdul, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time.

Lovely Restaurant I stumbled across whilst in Oxford, the food was delightful, customer service was great. Lovely decor in the place - well thought out.
