Sitti offers various dining options, including a courtyard, a communal dining table, and an antique Art Deco bar featuring Lebanese wines, beers, and liquors. The kitchen prepares halal beef, chicken, and lamb, with many dishes such as tabouleh, baba ghanouj, and falafel available for lunch and dinner.
