Golden Nights Restaurant, Buena Park

Fans of Golden Nights Restaurant come for the Lebanese food, hookah, and live entertainment, but the grand feel of the eatery opens with a sense of drama before diners even sit to order. Outside, a sandstone façade impresses with inlaid arches and a massive, cylindrical turret. Inside, a classical expanse of white marble floors, multistory ceilings, and snowy linens take center stage. Arches, columns, and floor-to-ceiling windows draw eyes toward gold-glowing crystal chandeliers and ethereal drapery. It's a vivid sight, and one that is as memorable as the kitchen's kibbeh rolls, flame-kissed kabobs, and lamb chops. A covered, heated patio is home to the hookah area and on Friday and Saturday nights, a live band and belly dancers add their vivid artistry to dinners. There's also plenty of space for special events.
