A Family Legacy Since 2003

Phoenician Garden was founded by Mo Hmaidan and is now run by his son, Tarek. The recipes come from our family’s table, and the ingredients are chosen with care, including spices sourced directly from Lebanon.

This is food prepared with purpose. From the lentil soup to the baklava, every detail matters.
