" My friends took me to Al Hawr for my birthday dinner, and it was absolutely delightful! We started with an assorted appetizer platter that offered a great variety of tastes, making it perfect for sharing. I opted for the filet mignon for my main course, which was beautifully presented and cooked just right. The ambience was lively, and I particularly enjoyed the friendly service—I felt truly pampered. We ended our meal with the best dessert, knafeh, which was a perfect way to celebrate! I can’t recommend this place enough if you want to enjoy authentic Lebanese cuisine. I will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a fan of Middle Eastern cuisine, I must say Al Hawr is one of the best I've encountered in Portland. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and the atmosphere is inviting. I ordered the kebabs, which were succulent and well-seasoned. The portions were just right, and the price was quite reasonable for what you receive. My only regret is that I didn't leave room for dessert because I heard great things about the lemon sorbet and baklava. I will be back soon to indulge more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Al Hawr was an experience to remember! The varied menu made it hard to choose, but I finally settled on the mixed grill. Every bite was delectable. The rice was herb-infused and paired perfectly with the grilled meats. Overall, the restaurant had a lovely vibe with chic decor and warm lighting. The service was prompt and friendly, which added to the great atmosphere. I’ll surely return to try different dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment you step into Al Hawr, you can feel the warmth and hospitality that defines this restaurant. The decor strikes a perfect balance between elegance and comfort, making it an ideal venue for a casual outing or special occasion. We started with the hummus and baba ganoush, both of which were creamy and flavorful. For the main course, I had the shish tawook, perfectly marinated and grilled to perfection. Every dish showcased the authentic flavors of Lebanese cooking. The service was attentive but not intrusive, which made for a pleasant evening. The dessert options were equally enticing; the baklava was sweet and flaky, a true highlight! This restaurant is a gem, and I look forward to returning soon. Overall, the experience was fantastic and exceeded my expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

The service was friendly yet professional, which added to the welcoming environment. The restaurant ambiance is perfect for a relaxed meal, and their dessert options looked inviting. I left more than satisfied and can't wait to return to explore more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our meal at Al Hawr was truly a culinary journey! We started with an exceptional beet salad that jumped out at us with its freshness. The tomato salad was bursting with flavor too. As for the main courses, the lamb shank was cooked to perfection—falling off the bone and full of savory spices. The assorted desserts were the cherry on top and exceeded my expectations. The service was on point, as our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations. Overall, I couldn't ask for a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)

The interior has a lovely vibe, making it great for family gatherings or a date night. I cannot recommend this place enough; it truly captures what Lebanese cuisine is all about!
