About Maroush 1 - Lebanese Restaurant - London

A taste of Lebanon in London
In 1975, a 21-year-old man named Marouf Abouzaki arrived in London from his home country of Lebanon. An energetic entrepreneur with great ambitions of success, Marouf worked in Lebanese restaurants as a chef until 1981, when he opened his first Maroush restaurant at 21 Edgware Road.

Twenty-three years later, Maroush has expanded into a small empire under his direction. In all, there are now 10 Maroush restaurants open for business, with plans in the making for several new arrivals in coming months.

Al Waha Restaurant

About Al Waha - Lebanese Restaurant - London

Al Waha means "oasis," and at the award-winning Al Waha restaurant, you'll dine on our carefully prepared Middle Eastern specialties, all in a peaceful, relaxed, yet elegant environment. (We are the same Al Waha you remember from the Piccadilly area -- we've just left the hustle and bustle of the West End, and now call the more tranquil Notting Hill area home.)

We prepare the best Lebanese food, and we do so by using fresh products daily, employing traditional techniques in preparing our dishes.

Start with our renowned mezze (starters/appetizers) -- including our specially prepared olives imported from around the world, our "light as air" falafel, savory sambousek, the freshest salads, and our famous hummus, which has been described by various food writers as "a revelation, undeniably rich...silky...and impossible not to indulge."

You'll enjoy our popular entrees, including delicately marinated and grilled meats, poultry and seafood. Don't forget to end with any one of our popular sweets, including hand-made baklawa. And don't miss our selection of premiere Lebanese wines, and traditionally-prepared coffees.

We hope you'll agree with Guardian food critic Matthew Fort, who said:

"Each dish carried an authentic hallmark of proper Middle Eastern cooking - peppy spices, singing herbs, shining flavors, health and happiness in every mouthful...not a stale note, not a sloppy detail in evidence, even in standard items."

Noura Central Restaurant


About Noura Central - Lebanese Restaurant - London

You've probably heard of Noura, an award-winning Lebanese brasserie chain well liked for its style, service, design and wonderful food. Formerly known as Chintamanti, and one of four London Nouras (there are more in Paris), Noura Central is on the corner of Jermyn Street and Regent Street. All Nouras have prestigious addresses, you see. Prices aren't cheap, but not all plush surroundings are so beautifully designed. Service is faultless, and the excellent food is supported by an outstanding international wine and champagne list, one of the biggest in London. Start with cold or hot meze, followed perhaps by chicken chawarma served between two pieces of traditional bread fresh from the oven at the centre of the room. The crowd crosses all ages and nationalities.

Fakhreldine Restaurant


About Fakhreldine - Lebanese Restaurant - London

This very well established Lebanese restaurant with its contemporary look offers the finest dining experience in Lebanese cuisine. Popular with Arab royalty, it has a loyal following that are bound to love its new, updated look. Relaxed and courteous service, it also has a lively atmosphere and 'Dar' area amid the restaurant and the bar - the perfect in-between to have light nibbles and drinks. Fakhreldine head chef Youssef Harb has taken it upon himself to revive Lebanese home cooking and elevate them to new heights. These slow cooked dishes are beautifully cooked using sun kissed Levantine ingredients, but until now have never been served in restaurants. Definitely worth a visit. What's cooking? Five-spice lamb and bukhari rice; baby aubergines with minced lamb pine nuts topped with yoghurt and crispy bread (vegetarian option available). This is just a sample of some of the main courses featured in the elegant dining room with fantastic, uninterrupted views of Green Park.

Mamounia Lounge Restaurant


About Mamounia Lounge - Lebanese Restaurant - London

This long-standing restaurant site, once home to Les Saveurs... has been transformed into a warm and atmospheric North African, Mamounia Lounge.

Colourful raw silk cushions, gauzy curtains and black and white photos of Berber people create a warm, evocative space and, happily, early indications are that the kitchen is living up to the pleasant surroundings.

Starters are particularly well executed. Grilled scallops, drizzled with a nicely piquant caper dressing, are perfectly cooked and beautifully presented in their shells, a side bowl of merguez sausages providing a robust, spicy accompaniment. And a dish of sardines with garlic, coriander, parsley and spices is rustic and flavoursome.

What’s more, there’s an interesting range of North African/Lebanese fusion dishes for those in search of something a bit different. Generous portions leave little room for dessert, but you can always opt of a shisha pipe in the upstairs bar instead (the one flavoured with apple being the best for novices) and the friendly staff are happy to demonstrate how to puff on it.

Al Sultan Restaurant


About Al Sultan - Lebanese Restaurant - London

Just off Shepherd's Market, Al Sultan is a small, beautifully run Lebanese that has attracted couples and families for absolute yonks.

The Middle Eastern restaurant traditions, white linen, flowers, mirrors and snappy service are all in evidence here, but even if Al Sultan weren't quite so inviting, the food would still win a loyal following.

Our absolute favourite thing to do is bring half a dozen friends and order every starter we can lay our hands on. Let the feast begin. Hommos shawarma with lamb and pine nuts is great, so are the Falafel, and Kallaje, the Kibbeh, and Fattouch and theMoutabal, but those who know say the Tabouleh is truly great. The wine list is an absolute winner, too.
