Restaurant Istambuli: Friendly restaurant in Hamra

by daaaniel

This popular family restaurant serves Lebanese and Turkish food. Order yourself a varity of mezze dishes and a bottle of Ksara and feel like home.I celebrated New Year's Eve at this place and was given traditional masks and crackers for the celebration. Friendly. Fattoush

By The Pigeon Rocks (Raouche)

by MalenaN

There are a couple of cafés/restaurants just above the Pigeon Rocks. There is a nice view over the rocks and the sea. After a long walk (I had walked all the way from Charles Helou Avenue through Hama and were going to walk back along the Cornish) it's nice to sit in the shadow feeling the cool breeze from the sea.The restaurant serves club sadwiches, hamburgers as well as more traditional Lebanese food.A club sandwich, a big bottle of water and a coffee (and tip) costs 20 000 LL.

Byblos Fishing Club (Pepe's)

by MalenaN

After strolling around the archaeological site and the small town of Byblos (Jbeil) it is nice to sit down and have something to drink at one of the restaurants at the harbour.In the 1960's Byblos Fishing Club used to be one of the most fashionable restaurants in the Middle East. Many famous people came here. Nowdays they can be seen on all the photos covering the wall.

Down Town

by MalenaN

Around the clock tower at Nejmeh Square there are several cafés and restaurants. In summertime a lot of people are walking up and down the streets. It can be difficult to find a table if you are late. There are many different things to chose from. Delicious ice-creams (a strawberry split will cost you about 6000 LL), pasta, fish or traditional Lebanese food. There are also a few places for take away, a shawarma place and one with Armenian food.

Le Chef: Lebanese food for a good price

by MalenaN

Le Chef is in some of the guidebooks and because of that I didn't go there first. It was close to my hotel so my last day in Lebanon I went there for lunch. I regret I didn't go there earlier because they serve Lebanese food for a resonable price (Beirut restaurants are usually expensive).The restaurant is not open in the evening.

by Lebanese

Resturants are available in large numbers but you have to make sure where you eat as the prices of some of the resturants are over rated. So before you go in make sure to have a look at the menu or price list If you speak English or French, you will not find any trouble going around in Lebanon as most people are trilingual.Lebanon has 4 seasons but spring would be the loveliest time for a visit (March 21 to June 21) Homos!!! If you don't try it, you're missing a lot!!!Tabouleh: A typical Lebanese dish

by Sheri_Z

There are too many! An old favorite is Maroush, which is not fancy, and not too pricey, in Hamrah and great for lunch or dinner. I was taken to a place -- and forgot the name -- Chez and then a name- that is now popular, very exclusive, in a little house in the same area of Hamra. Reservations required and parties can book a room. It was truly wonderful, Arabic food but with that special Lebanese touch. Everywhere - food is good, so even in Ba'lbak, the one restaurant (and hotel) -- the Palmyra Hotel - serves a great lunch with wonderful fresh vegetables, etc. In the Biqa - try the special salad with wheat, or the kishik, or the sfayyih (a single one is called sfiha). Everywhere else, there are so many dishes. One interesting place had melokhiyya cooked the Lebanese way -- (and compare to the Egyptian style). Of course stuffed tomatoes, green peppers, vine leaves, grilled meat, and rice...
