Raya Lebanese Restaurant

Charlie Mader

Ordered a couple pita wraps and they were just OK. Chicken was a bit dry and had some inedible pieces. Not as flavorful as Lebanese food usually is. Also I would not recommend using door dash because I did and they had no idea I had placed an order when I showed up for pickup.

Chose to go here because it was one of the highest rated mediterranean restaurants in Cincinnati. I was very disappointed with the food. I ordered a gyro which was good. But my partner who ordered the wings received them Burnt and very small. The baklava we ordered for desert was severed cold out of a refrigerator. Opposed to room temperature like every other mediterranean restaurant I have been to. The man we sat next to during our meal noted that the grape leaves were drenched in lemon juice and had been reheated due to their lack of crispness. The people there were sweet but I was just overall very disappointed in the food.

We love this place. It's one of our favourites in Cincinnati. The people there are wonderful. Super friendly. The food is outstanding. We love the baba ghanoush. The lamb in the shish kabob is fabulous. The mix platter is great. Gyro meat is so good. Look forward to trying a different dish when we visit again.

The owner is very sweet. The service was very quick, given that I was there on a Saturday. The food is really authentic and plenty of options and combinations to choose from. If you are in Cincinnati downtown and feeling to have some middle eastern food, this will be a great place. Grape leaves, falafels were super fresh. Tabouli was a bit watery but it was a great combination to eat it with fresh warm pita breads.
