A very nice experience, the food was perfect, and so much of it! I would recommend ordering the next one separately, depending on what you like or want to try, because the sets were not for three people, but for 8 or even 10 people. The atmosphere was impressive.

Ive visited this place in May and I think its the perfect time since its not humid or crowded the falls were charming and the place itself is in the middle of the nature, where you are surrounded by the small lake, falls and trees. The food was exceptional! Every bit of it was great all appetizers and plates were excellent and service was good. I highly recommend it especially for tourists

It was our first time dining at Shalalat El Zarka, a restaurant by the beautiful Baakline river and its nature. The service is outstanding! The staff is polite and attentive, going above and beyond to provide a wonderful eating experience. The food was absolutely delicious and we tried the typical Lebanese food (Mesa & Mashawi) as well as seafood. Definitely generous portions and we left full and satisfied. Overall, it was an incredible dining experience and I highly recommend this place when visiting Lebanon & the mountains. Can’t wait to be back there soon.

Our dining experience by the waterfall was truly magical. The soothing sound of the water created a perfect backdrop for our meal, enhancing the ambiance and making the evening unforgettable. The food was nothing short of amazing—each dish was a delightful blend of flavors, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The highlight, however, was the exceptional customer service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our time to the fullest. It was a perfect evening, and we can't wait to return!
