Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Seray offers an "amazing" Lebanese dining experience with expertly prepared dishes in a beautifully decorated space. Guests rave about the "outstanding" service and welcoming ambiance. The Branzino and lamb dishes are highlights. While the restaurant can be bustling, especially on weekends, it remains a "must-try" in Vienna.

    I had lunch with a native of Lebanon on 12/18/24. He said he grew up on grape leaves, and said Seray's were just like his mother made -- he absolutely loved them. He also thought that the level of spice in other dishes (yogurt with bread , chicken shwarma, meat pies), was a little mild, probably that way for the American palate. He4 said, overall, American palate= A; Lebanese palate = B. I have to say, I really liked all the dishes. For us older folk (that's me) with hearing aids, the noise level was bothersome -- turn up my hearing aids to hear my friend across the table and suffer the background noise, or turn them down to reduce the noise and have trouble hearing my friend. Go figure. Dino was our waiter and was perfect! Attentive, but not intrusive. My grade = A minus, only because of the noise level. Mike.

    My entre arrived as I was half way through an excellent blue cheese salad -- timing is important for a top quality restaurant. This needs work. Biggest problem was the limited entree menu. I spoke to the owner and he said that would be improved after New Years.

    After talking about doing so for several weeks, my friend and I finally tried Seray and were not disappointed! The space is beautiful and comfortable, our server was friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. We opted to share a few appetizers instead of having entrees and enjoyed them all -- hummus, labneh, cheese rolls, meat pie and chicken schwarma sliders. The very friendly owner stopped by our table and we had a nice chat with him. A great experience and we'll be back!

    Overall such a wonderful experience. The decor is both beautiful and festive for the season. My husband and I shared the Feta salad and 3 appetizers, all of which were delicious. We were offered complimentary dessert of bread pudding which really ended the meal on a high note. Service was excellent. What a nice surprise to have such a lovely new restaurant among a row of fast food places!

    Food was very good. A computer glitch delayed our order though the waiter was very nice about it.The music was much too loud with an annoying techno beat and seemed inconsistent w the level of sophistication of the decor and the food.
