" I had such a lovely time at El Jamil. The service was first-rate and attentive to all our needs. I had the mixed grill and every piece of meat was tender and flavorful. I sat outside, which made for a lovely atmosphere. I must say the baklava was the cherry on top! I will undoubtedly return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had some high hopes going into El Jamil after hearing glowing recommendations. While the food was generally good, it did not hold up to the authentic Lebanese dining experiences I’ve had before. The portions felt a bit on the smaller side for the price, and the service was noticeably slow throughout the meal. I would say it’s worth a try, but manage your expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved El Jamil! The atmosphere is delightful, with a touch of authenticity that makes you feel like you're in Lebanon. The mixed grill platter was a highlight, perfectly tender and well seasoned. Service was friendly, and I was impressed by the variety available on the menu. It’s a must-visit for anyone who loves Middle Eastern food! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for authentic Lebanese food, look no further than El Jamil! Every dish I tried had layers of flavor that took me back to my travels in Lebanon. The outdoor seating option really enhances the experience. The staff is always friendly, and I look forward to returning for dinner with friends soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just love El Jamil! Their falafel is the best I've had outside the Middle East. It's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, full of flavors! The service was prompt and friendly, which added to the positive experience. The eclectic decor really sets the right mood for a casual meal. This has become my go-to spot for Lebanese food in Mexico City! " (*Curated Review*)

" The place looked charming, but unfortunately, I left feeling underwhelmed. I tried the fattoush and found it bland, lacking the flavor punch I was hoping for. Service was inattentive during the busy hour, which didn’t help. It’s a shame because I had high hopes for this restaurant. I might not come back unless I hear rave reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at El Jamil and was enchanted by the atmosphere! The decor was charming and the music complemented the dining experience. The service was prompt and engaging. As for the food, the grilled veggies and lamb were delicious. Great to share different dishes, perfect for a social evening. I will be planning to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)
