Walking into Taste of Lebanon feels like stepping into a fragrant, sun-washed courtyard somewhere in Beirut, but it’s the menu that truly transports you. Every dish here sings with authenticity and soul, starting with their appetizers – a parade of Levantine classics. The hummus is impossibly smooth and luxuriously rich, perfectly balanced with a drizzle of olive oil. Right beside it, the baba ghannouj offers a smoky depth that pairs beautifully with warm pita. The falafel? Crisped to golden perfection outside, soft and spiced within – a clear standout.
For something heartier, the Fool Mudammas delivers a comforting bowl of fava beans, garlic, and lemon, while the Stuffed Grape Leaves bring a satisfying bite of herbaceous rice rolled with care.
Craving something fresh? Their Taboule Salad bursts with parsley and lemon, while the Fattoush adds crunch with toasted pita and a tangy dressing. The Fresh Lentil Soup feels like a warm embrace on any day, and the Chicken Salad offers a hearty, protein-packed option.
Wraps are where Taste of Lebanon flexes its versatility. The Chicken Shawarma Wrap is juicy, deeply spiced, and wrapped snugly for on-the-go bliss. The Lamb Kabob Wrap is equally irresistible, grilled to tender excellence. For vegetarians, the Falafel with Hummus and Grape Leaves Wraps are both satisfying and vibrant.
Don’t miss the Vegetarian Combos – curated specials that let you try a little of everything, perfect for indecisive foodies. End your journey on a sweet note with their delicate Baklava, layered with nuts and just the right hint of rose water.
Simple beverages like tea or a soda can round out the experience, but honestly? The food is the real star here.
