The comfortable and welcoming interior of The Prophet is a major draw for diners, even before they taste the authentic Lebanese cuisine. Basing his creations on family recipes, chef and owner Jihad Moussallem produces traditional cuisine, from a smoky baba ghanoush to more unusual and distinctly Middle Eastern dishes.

Reviews:
The West Australian Good Food Guide 2011 Score: 12/20 "There's a huge buzz about this unprepossessing Lebanese cafe. The food is 100 percent oldschool Lebanese, but it's far from ordinary"
West Australian Jennifer Jordan, 22-04-09 Score: 15/20 "If only we had more cafes like The Prophet. It appears to have hit on a formula of good, honest, tasty food at great prices and has been doing so for nine years." Sunday Mail STM's Sandra Peterson, 24-3-2008 "Don't be deceived by first impressions. The cafe looks a little lacklustre from the street, but you only have to follow your nose and you'll head straight inside. The exotic scents and sizzling sounds wafting from the kitchen coupled with Middle Eastern music had a come hither seduction. So much so that we were drooling with anticipation within minutes of sitting down. According to a sign in the window, belly dancers entertain on select nights. "
