I suppose it’s going to come down to the style of cooking. Lebanese Taverna is great food and a great experience. I like Mama Ayesha’s better because they s season the way my grandmother did. (E.g. meat stuffed grape leaves, no mint in tabouleh, kibbeh is baked. Etc. ) unfortunately I don’t know what part of Lebanon my family was from but check mama’s out.

That's fair. And yes, that makes sense -- I tend to prefer the style that my teta (grandmother) makes food.

Which means you may just have to try all of them. A fate that is enviable. Follow up when you find the one you like the most.

Yeah, it's a good problem to have. 😄 I went to Layalina in Arlington this evening. It was FABULOUS! With every bite, I felt like I was back in Lebanon. 10/10 would absolutely recommend. It has my stamp of authenticity.
