We were a party of four and we ordered 2-3 plates off each menu section. Portions are perfect for sharing. The flavors were very defined in each dish. We loved everything we ordered. Go and be adventurous. You will enjoy every bite.

What a fantastic experience we had at Hummus! Madeline was our server, and she was an informed, personable delight! Our food was beautifully plated, and so delicious! The Turkish Coffee was an unexpected experience, and it was the perfect bitter and smooth compliment to the sweet Baklava! Even if you are not familiar with Lebanese food, you absolutely must give Hummus a try! You will not be disappointed!

We were the only people there at noon. Food took a while and when it finally arrived the Halloumi was cold and so was the pita Hummus was totally bland. The kafta was hot but over rice 27$ was very expensive for the amount of food. We would never go back

We were thrilled to find this jewel in downtown Charleston. Having had Lebanese food many times before, we feel confident in saying this is one of the best Lebanese restaurants we have found! The host/server, Madelyn, was so personable and knowledgeable. She made us feel like FAMILY. The chef, Bashir, hand prepared fresh food with quality, authentic Lebanese spices. The recipes were passed down through generations in his family. We were so delighted with our experience, we have already booked another dinner. I highly recommend the hummus, falafel, and kafta. Although, everything on the menu was exceptional!
