Luxurious Lebanese food, hookah water pipes, and fine alcoholic arak all make Abdel Wahab a popular place four tourists and locals alike. Serving grand portions of mezze such as hummus, tabbouleh and labneh over one main room and a rooftop terrace you will leave Abdel Wahab with your appetite satisfied and your belt a few notches looser.

One of Beirut’s oldest Lebanese restaurants Al Ajami features lush comfy sofas and low tables and simply good food. Fantastic schwarma and mezze, plentiful bowls of olives and friendly waiters, it’s a good alternative to the main restaurants areas of Downtown and Achrafieh.

Good, solid cheap Lebanese food in the pedestrianized centre of downtown. Dine inside or outside, try the lamb kebabs, the mezze, the hookah water pipes and creamy desserts and pastries. Go for a casual lunch or dinner and spend some time people watching as the crowds in Downtown walk by.

A traditional Lebanese restaurant in a lovely renovated old Ottoman house with lots of space and room to relax, Mijana is one of Beirut’s secret delights featuring plenty of their own Lebananese specialties like red hummus and shish kebabs. Good wine and good arak too.

Downtown’s finest seafood and Lebanese restaurants, Diwan, is a great place for lunch as well as dinner. But it is really its fresh fish that is to die for. Try the sea bass, mallifa, red mullet, and bizri (deep fried sardines) for a real pleasure of taste. Reasonably priced, especially since fish can be so expensive in many restaurants here, Diwan Sultan Ibrahim is definitely worth visiting.
