Wow! That's all I can say! I was recently driving up and down Second Street in Long Beach, debating which middle eastern restaurant to try and I'm glad I picked this one. The food is among the best I have ever had. The service was wonderful (our waitress even had an Egyptian accent!) and the decor transported us to somewhere magical! If ever you are looking for a fabulous, very cool cafe to go to for lunch Sunnin is it. We started off our lunch with Sfiha (#14), an appetizer of homemade dough stuffed with ground beef, tomatoes, onions and pine nuts. So yummy I should have made a meal out of it! I then ordered the Kefta Kebab (#35), finely ground beef with chopped onions, parsley and seasoned with a blend of spices, served with hummus, rice and Lebanese salad. My lunch mate ordered #37, Kebbeh bil Sayniyeh - two layers of finely ground beef and burgul, stuffed with minced beef, onions and pine nuts, also served with hummus, rice and Lebanese salad. They have a house specialty drink called Jallab which is made from Lebanese fruits and garnished with pine nuts (I know that sounds a little weird, but trust me on this!) - so good! We finally finished our meal on a sweet note with wonderfully unique dessert of phyllo, custard and honey (I'm sorry I can't remember the name - and it's not listed on their take out menu) and of course a couple of cups of their Lebanese coffee. I cannot say enough about this wonderful cafe...only that I wish I had discovered it earlier! Sunnin Lebanese Cafe 5110 East Second Street, Long Beach, CA 90803
