• Mediterranean • Orange

Byblos Café, originally a Mediterranean market, has been a staple in the orange circle since the 50’s. It was sold to Adel and Zalfa Mahshi in 1989. The family run business became a favorite in the town for Lebanese cuisine. Many locals loyally frequented the spot for their famous Turkish coffee. In 2022, Daily Dose Hospitality, the crew that also runs Bosscat Kitchen & Libations, purchased the business from the family. While Adel and Zalfa had the opportunity to retire, their son, Tim, joined the team alongside Pedram Yazarlou as operating partners. They have transitioned the cuisine to a Mediterranean fusion style with influences from Greece, Turkey, Iran, Lebanon, & Jordan.

Benny and Mary's gave us an absolutely world class experience. From their thoughtful, hand-written "Happy Anniversary" note, to the exceptional food, to the premium care and service their staff provided, our night was so memorable. This will now be our go-to restaurant for special occasions. Our only regret is that we didn't discover it earlier. Thank you Benny and Mary's for making our anniversary night so special!

Harrison was our server. He had a positive energy and made sure we were good. I hope we get him again. The food and drinks were good too. We had ribs, cinnamon cornbread, buffalo boneless chicken, slaw, baked beans, mac and cheese, and sweet potato cheesecake. First time there and will definitely be back!
