Comptoir Libanais in Reading

I love this place so much. Such delicious food and good choice of soft drinks too. This is one of our favorite! Lovely atmosphere as well!

Food wonderful It's been years since I've had food like this And Hermione very friendly and helpful!!! I was on a business trip and I think I will make it a meeting place

Ermioni is very friendly and prodessional. Great experience.

Lovely waitresses Ermioni ☺️good service. Food was good

Loved the mixed grill and the staff was lovely! The service was great and we didn't need to wait a long time to get our food. Will go back again 😊

We came one more time to have a lovely lunch at Comptoir Lebanese in Reading. The food was excellent and our server Hermione was very friendly and helpful, suggesting food specials and she was friendly with our children. In general, highly recommended restaurant.

Ermiona was a fantastic server and the food was beautifully made 🫶🏼🕺

Our server Ermiona was amazing!! So attentive and helpful!!

Food was amazing and Anna chef from Greece was stunning the way she cooked!

Ana was absolutely amazing Much recommended

Very good service by Ermiona and food very testy and yummy

Perfect servis Ermiona grisilda

Ermiona and Grisilda were great!! Lovely food!!

Ermiona served me today , very lovely lady perfect service !!!

Ermiona grisilda perfect servis.

We liked the surroundings and the siting of the restaurant. The fake flowers and decorative baskets are very jolly. We had a meze platter to share which is a starter for 2 and costs £27. The food was nice but you don't get much. The portion size was really small for the money. The baclava dessert was amusing. You get a single bite sized (2x2 inch) piece. Our drinks came after our food and cost £10.80 each for a large glass of wine. Service got added onto the bill automatically but we had to fight for service. The server was very friendly but seemed to be serving the whole restaurant by herself. Some positives but, overall, we thought the whole thing was a bit of a rip off and we would not go back.

its soo cute and the food is very delicious 😍u recommend it 🫶🏻

Ermiona Grisilda is so humble and nice. We received great service in the restaurant. It was great experience in dine in here.

Grisilda at the Comptoir Libanais Reading branch is one of the most helpful colleagues I’ve come across! She helped me very swiftly with resolving my booking issue. Thank you Grisilda - looking forward to coming to visit this branch soon!

Food was delicious , Grisilda served us very well

Had a Chicken wrap as a takeaway delivered to the office. Food was delicious and filling, but rather plain. You would almost certainly need to go for a sit-down meal to enjoy the wider menu choice

This is the second time I’ve requested napkins and a spoon for soup and it wasn’t included. I’m on travel and do not have utensils to use. I’ve ordered twice now with a note included and it hasn’t been delivered.

A Culinary Gem in the Heart of Reading: An Unforgettable Lebanese Experience Nestled gracefully over the serene river that flows through the bustling centre of Reading, this Lebanese restaurant is nothing short of a hidden treasure. From the moment you step inside, you are transported to the vibrant streets of Beirut, surrounded by the warm, inviting aromas of Mediterranean and Arabic cuisine. Every detail, from the elegant decor to the soothing Middle Eastern music, creates an atmosphere that is both luxurious and comforting. The menu is a masterpiece, showcasing the rich and diverse flavours of Lebanon. Each dish is crafted with precision and love, using the freshest ingredients to deliver an authentic taste of the Mediterranean. The hummus is velvety smooth, the falafel perfectly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, and the grilled meats are succulent and bursting with flavour. Don’t miss the mixed grill platter—it’s a carnivore’s dream! For vegetarians, the array of mezze options is a delight, with dishes like Baba ghanoush, tabbouleh, and stuffed vine leaves that are simply divine. What truly sets this restaurant apart, however, is the exceptional service. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing their culture through food. They go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed and cared for, offering recommendations and explaining the nuances of each dish with enthusiasm. Their warmth and hospitality make the dining experience even more memorable. The location is simply magical. Sitting by the window, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the river as it glistens under the evening lights, adding a touch of romance to your meal. Whether you’re here for a casual lunch, a family dinner, or a special celebration, the ambience is perfect for any occasion. In a town brimming with dining options, this Lebanese restaurant stands out as a true culinary gem. It’s not just a meal—it’s an experience that lingers in your heart and on your palate. If you’re in Reading, do yourself a favour and visit this incredible spot. You’ll leave with a full stomach, a happy heart, and a deep appreciation for Lebanese hospitality. Bravo to the team for creating such a remarkable dining destination!

Kind personal, friendly atmosphere, good service & tasty foods😋 Special thanx to Mokhira😇

came here with my family yesterday evening and left with a memorable impression. high quality food and excellent customer service from aleasha.

Grisilda and Ermiona were amazing

Ermiona and Grisilda both are amazing, they did amazing job. Best servive.

First in a Lebanese Restaurant and I could say the food was tremendously tasty! We ordered The feast that comes with a Platter of starters, a burst of flavour to my mouth! The Mixed grill large plate was really good and very filling! I love the chicken wings! And of course, the baklawa, oh my gosh, if I wasn’t full, I’d order more! Don’t forget the mint tea, it’s refreshing! My friend who celebrated her birthday was really happy with the restaurant! Will definitely come back!

I gave a 3 for the food. I had lamb tagine. I Was not expecting lamb minced balls with hardly any flavour. I was expecting pieces of lamb meat. Disappointing.

Had an amazing experience here, Aleasha gave us exceptional service and helped to recommend us the best dishes on the menu. we had the mix grill and mezze platter which was delicious.

Great food and service. Ermiona looked after us so well.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Comptoir Libanais in Reading, and I just had to take a moment to commend Ermiona for her outstanding service. From the moment we arrived, she greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, and she offered fantastic recommendations that truly enhanced our dining experience. Ermiona was attentive without being intrusive, always checking in to ensure we had everything we needed. Her positive energy and genuine enthusiasm for the food and culture made our meal even more enjoyable. It’s clear that she takes pride in her work and cares about her customers. The atmosphere at Comptoir Libanais was vibrant, but Ermiona’s personal touch really stood out. I left feeling not only satisfied with the delicious food but also grateful for such excellent service. I highly recommend visiting this location and asking for Ermiona – she will surely make your experience memorable! Thank you, Ermiona, for your exceptional service!

Amazing food!! As a veggie, I would recommend the halloumi open wrap, great flavour and can tell that care goes into the preparation of the food. Price is on the more expensive side but definitely worth it.

I attended this evening with my husband and was served by aleasha. she gave us great recommendations which made our visit so memorable. I will definitely be recommending to friends and family.

Too much salad, not enough chicken. It didn’t taste of Chicken Taouk Wrap, it didn’t taste of much more than pickles.

Ermiona. Amazing service and she look after us very well. Good delicious

Had lunch at Comptoir Libanais with my husband and the food was very, very good. We were served by the lovely Ermiona who was fast and efficient. All in all, a good place for a meal.

Love this place! Beautiful surroundings, friendly and attentive staff, and delicious food! Especially enjoyed the baklava and tea to finish.

An absolutely wonderful experience at Comptoir Libanais! The staff were lovely and the food truly hit the spot.

Had a really lovely family lunch here - great food and the staff were very thoughtful and helpful, especially Yusef.

Fantastic meal from start to finish. Went for the festive menu with mezze selection starters - very tasty dips, fresh breads, all excellent. Then the lamb kebab main was delicious, perfect charring but still super juicy, a first-class Lebanese feast finished off with fab mint tea and baklava. Service was excellent throughout as well, very friendly welcome and looked after by Karina and Yusef.

Amazing and outstanding atmosphere. For a vegetarian/vegan there is no other choice in Reading. Tables 8 and 9 overlooking the riverside are also the best in house.

Have been multiple times to the Reading restaurant- every time the food is cooked perfectly and tasty. The menu has plenty of meat-free options. The staff are always friendly and attentive- shout out to Karina for constant high-level service. Karina

A perfect meal, perfect company.

Ermiona and zsordi were very attentive and got our dog a little pot to drink from

Very tasty food and nice service .Thank you so much

ermiona was my server and she was very kind and provided quick service

Visited this week with a group of friends - really impressed. This is a lovely, vibrant restaurant in the heart of Reading - the interior design is wonderful and the food is delicious. The staff were terrific, really attentive, particularly Grisilda and Karina who looked after us really well despite the restaurant being hugely busy. Thanks!! We will definitely return!

Así que la primera vez a este restaurante de cadena. ¡Nos gustó! Comida recién sabrosa - nada elaborado pero una calidad decente entregado por un equipo bien perforado de cocineros y servidores. Si tienes un plato con proteína como ingrediente, las porciones son bastante pequeñas. El servicio era muy bueno. Un par de puntos negativos ... es un poco caro para lo que se obtiene . . si usted tiene 3 platos y una bebida sin alcohol o dos, es alrededor de las £ 50 por cabeza. Además, si te sientas en la mitad de la sala de estar más cercana a la puerta, entonces sientes una explosión de hielo cada vez que se abre la puerta, ya que no hay vestíbulo o entrada de chicane solo un calentador de puerta que no gestiona el trabajo. No es algo que quieras en un restaurante decente. Quizá hagan que los repartidores usen una entrada diferente... ¿Está en mi top 10 de Reading - probablemente no - pero no es malo.

Ermiona...I love the atmosphere and decorations.the food and drinks are amazing 🤩😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩 definitely coming back here 100%...

Really fantastic food. So fresh and flavourful, would definitely recommend.

Recently came here for corporate dinner - 18 of us, had a great time. Service was excellent. Highly recommend!

Ermiona was so lovely to us today. She had such a kind and calm aura and made us feel so welcome in the restaurant. So thankful, we will be back!

Ermiona was so kind and generous. She took great care of us throughout our dining experience. We had a wonderful time and we'll definitely be coming back again.

Ermiona was the best! She was so sweet and nice! I had a great time! I’ll definitely be coming back here again!

We walked in on a whim on a Tuesday evening. Service was prompt and friendly, we were served by Ermiona, who was lovely and made good suggestions. Would come again!

Ermiona and the team were absolutely amazing, they were so attentive and kind, and the food was absolutely delicious. 10/10 would recommend

Un gran grupo de nosotros vinimos para una cena y nos sirvieron por el encantador Usif que era amable y paciente con nosotros mientras estábamos pidiendo nuestra comida. La comida era deliciosa y el ambiente era increíble, lo recomendaría!

Primera vez que visito. Salir con un amigo a cenar antes del cine. Ambiente encantador. Elegimos el plato Mezze para 2 con un Halloumi extra e higos. Estaba muy sabroso y lleno. El servicio era bueno y el personal era muy agradable y servicial. Definitivamente volveré.

The roasted salmon was incredible.

The service was exceptional, thanks to yusuf.

Yusuf was very polite with the service, we had a wonderful birthday dinner thanks to him

I loved my experience here I went with my friends the server Yusuf Karacam offered us wonderful service with his hospitality and politeness.

Nice ambiance and wonderfully served by Yusuf

Food quality and taste was average. Kebab was burnt. Service was not very good. Location is very good but table for two is very small. If you order more than two dishes no space on table.

Grisilda was an excellent waitress very polite and caring. The food was delicious and will definitely recommend it to all who are visiting Reading town .

Ermiona was super amazing 😍 the whole experience was perfect

Ermiona was great she served us and made sure that our food was great and we were happy. We are very fussy eaters but we enjoyed everything!!

Este restaurante es muy caro y la calidad de la comida no es excelente. El restaurante estaba lleno cuando comimos allí y el servicio era menos que satisfactorio.

Recieved a warm welcome, service was ok- a little slow but ok. Food was tasty. The mezze feast deal seemed like a good offer and although the food was lovely, personally I feel like the offer was overpriced. White sangria again overpriced and tasted like orange juice.

ermiona is the sweetest and most welcoming!! loved the food

Ermiona was super helpful, the food and service was amazing

Delicious food, but service left a very bitter taste Went to comptoir tonight with 3 friends, we all had tagines, there were soooo tasty! One friend ordered an elderflower spritz which was really unpleasant/bitter, when she told the waiter he essentially shrugged his shoulders, she’d had at best 2 sips. I ordered soda and fresh lime and received the tiniest slice of bear dried lime in my soda. We all ordered fresh mint tea after our meal, getting the drinks/dessert menu was no mean feat as waiters were hard to get the attention of. We made a point of saying just mint tea, not the fancier one, even pointed to it on the menu. We were served the fancier, bitter one with tea in it rather than just leaves and told that’s how they did it when clearly they did fresh mint on the menu. Rather than listening to us we were shut down by the wait staff. I left feeling really very angry, and disappointed. We usually go to Comptoir in London, and not sure i’d rush back to Reading branch again after our experience.

Friendly staff and hard work in everything they do. A relaxed and amazing atmosphere for everyone. Great food at a great price, would recommend if you want something new and exciting.Swift booking process, great ambiance, tasty food and excellent service. Special thanks to Martyna for taking good care.

Love the food and service and we definitely will be back

Definitely the tastiest food we’ve ever eaten! Along with the beautiful decor and service this an unforgettable culinary experience :) thank you so much to Ermiona!!

Food was 3/5, atmosphere was 5/5, it was pricey for less food. It should be more food. Food tastes good. Loved the Moroccan tea. I just hope they give more or add food

Terrible service. Only one lady trying to serve all tables alone.

Had the best service and hospitality by ermiona

Vino para una cena rápida y agradablemente sorprendido. El entrante meze para dos era excelente, y muy auténtica comida libanesa. Mi hijo tenía la parrilla mixta y yo la tagina. Ambos buenos, habría preferido un poco más de especias en el eslogan, es decir, comino, ajo, limón, etc, ya que podría ser bastante soso. No teníamos desierto. No hay mucha elección de vino y sus limonadas y refrescos caseros son muy refrescantes y sabrosos. Elección de alcohol limitada. Sin duda volveré de nuevo. Tiene uno de esos menús que quieres probar de todo. Estaba muy ocupado con clientes mixtos, estudiantes, parejas, familia, niños, que fue genial ver

First time visiting and was so impressed! Ermiona was so lovely and looked after us brilliantly! The food was delicious. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Ermiona kasia very food perfect service

Very good and lovely place with amazing staff. Thanks to Grisilda and Hermione for the best service

1st time in here last night we had the sharer for 2. Great selection. Amazing food. Service was a bit slow when we wanted to pay. Definitely recommend it here 👌

Great food, location and atmosphere but the staff let it down. Got greeted and the waitress looked angry and pointed to our table instead of actually shown and seated down, took way to long to come and serve us for each thing, instead they was just walking around finding other things to do. Only time they were prompt with coming over is when we had to pay.

Ermiona Griselda It’s very beautifully decorated and the food is great. Authentic Lebanese kitchen!

Ermiona grisilda was great, very smily and helpful. Thank you!
