Nice family run restaurant where you get the personal touch and you feel very welcomed. Nice variety on the menu and tasty food. Makes you want to return. Location is nice and cozy. Definitely worth a visit.

Tonight we had the Mezza-meal, a delightful mouth watering Lebanese/Mediterranean mix. We were attended by Joseph himself. I totally reccomend this excellent spot for your business dinners as well as family.

The best thing about this restaurant is the food, it was delicious, everything was so good. Must admit it was quite expensive. If you're in Trinidad be sure to check it out. Regards to James and family.

Great setting with tasty Arabian food in manageable portion sizes. Wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable without being patronizing.

The atmosphere and service are EXCELLENT but the food is BLAND and way OVERPRICED. If you season with salt and pepper then this is the place for you! However if you are a spicy local go elsewhere, I tried the lamb and frankly its a bland version of the one my mother stews at home.The mushroom caps were good, but... More

Dear Venita, I am sorry to hear that you enjoyed our mushroom caps but did not enjoy our lamb because it is one of our specialties. We actually put much more than just salt and pepper but also wine and other flavors. Unfortunately we do not have creole food on our menu but if that is your preference and you... More

Tucked away in the quiet of Bossierre, Maraval located on the mainland Trinidad. This restaurant is owned and run by Joseph and his wife. Joseph loves to put passion into his food preparation and presentation. The result is mouth watering Lebanese/Mediterranean Cuisine in a choice of casual dinning where you enjoy the natural breezes, the restaurant's lighting and Music where... More
