Cedar Lounge is easily one of my favorite Lebanese restaurants in Munich – and yes, it’s absolutely worth the trip out to Rosenkavalierplatz. The homemade lemon-mint lemonade alone is reason enough to visit: refreshingly tangy, perfectly balanced, and incredibly addictive.
The mezze starters are generous, flavorful, and remind me of the dishes I came to love during my travels to Beirut and Byblos. A personal favorite is the Batata Harra – potatoe cubes with chili, garlic, oil, and fresh coriander. Here’s a little insider tip: order a side of Toum (garlic cream).

When it comes to mains, you really can’t go wrong. We usually go for the Mixed Grill, which is consistently juicy and full of flavor – and yes, it comes with another helping of that irresistible Toum.

Very nice find,...
Read moreAlthough the food quality was good, I give it two stars because of the bad behaviour of one of the waiters and the high prices. They also brought me two different appetisers. I didn't order them, and I thought they were side dishes of the main food, but they charged me for those in the end.
They also want the tip from you as your duty, not for their excellent service...
