    I totally feel sorry for Alissar. It is a wonderful Lebanese restaurant, but it is almost next door to another Lebanese place. I can't believe they can co-exist together selling the same products. Alissar, like most Lebanese places, has a full bar of food delights that can be assembled either on your place or as a sandwich. They have falafel, shwarma, hummous, garlic sauce, tabouli, and that purple pickled veggie (that I think is radish?). The difference between Alissar and it's neighbour is mostly the atmosphere. Alissar is a happening vibrant place - the walls are beautifully decorated and the air is filled with delightful Arabic music, giving Alissar a very authentic feel. It is a cash only place, but there is a handy ATM inside in case you are running low. Oh, and don't you dare eat at that fast food behemoth nextdoor (yet another competitor that Alissar has to deal with!) - go Lebanese, not Happy Meal.
