Baladna — Restaurant in Paris

I came across Baladna very randomly, as I was looking for a place to eat on a very rainy day in Paris. Baladna is not a huge place but it feels very homey and cozy. We were directly greeted by the waitress who sat us down and gave us the menu.

We ordered the plat du jour, which came with a choice of entrée: Hommos, Salade Orientale, Taboulé, Laban Concombre ou Foul Moudamas. For the main plate, I got Ailes de poulet. As a Lebanese person, I was expecting it to look more like a plate of «djej bel saniyye» but it was still very good despite not being what I expected.

The dessert was probably the best part, I got the Mhalabiyye and it was incredible.

For 14.90euros, I think it was definitely worth it. I would love to go back and try the dinner menu...

Best Lebanese Restaurant in Town_________ A True Gem! This is hands down the best Lebanese restaurant in town. The moment you step inside, you're welcomed with the warmest smiles and genuine hospitality, we truly felt like we were home, home, home! The food? Absolutely divine! Every bite was a celebration of flavor and tradition. The portions are generous, and the presentation is pretty beautiful. But what truly sets this place apart is the heart behind the service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. It's not just a meal, it's a whole experience of warmth and culture!!! A must-visit! Whether you’re Lebanese and missing home, or just love authentic cuisine served with love : this is the place. We’ll be coming back...

We’d heard Paris has some amazing Lebanese restaurants, and since my husband is Cuban-Lebanese, we wanted to try one during our trip. We found Baladna and it was a perfect choice. We ordered the hummus, grape leaves, labne, plus a chicken platter and a meat platter. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The service was excellent and we absolutely loved the food. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Lebanese...
