This place is EXCEPTIONAL. Amazing Lebanese restaurant. Very high quality. You can tell they put a lot of love and a high level of talent and care into what they prepare and present. If you've never tried Lebanese cuisine, this will set the bar very high. If you are already a fan of Lebanese food, get ready to be excited. We had Turkish coffee, fried kibbeh which was perfectly seasoned and textured inside and out, delicious cheese rolls, and the veggie sandwich which hits the spot if you love grilled veggies. The sandwich was served with rice and fries. The Beiruty fries were different than other Lebanese fries I've had - a melange of seasoning and textured so that more seasoning sticks to the fries. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, homey, and cozy. The service was outstanding and also accommodating - I have a food sensitivity and the server went out of his way to determine appropriate substitutions for me to be able to enjoy the dishes I was interested in. Save time to do some shopping in their adjacent market which is called Yalla, and take flavors and treats of Lebanon home with you to enjoy. Honestly, eating here lifted my spirits - it's been a while since I've been so impressed. And being around people who care so much about what they do really lifts the spirit. I wish the proprietors much success and many blessings. Thank you for the...
Read moreAn absolute gem in the most unassuming location. As a prolific foodie with extensive experience in Mediterranean fare, I can say that the quality of food here is locally unsurpassed. We love Shishka in Pompano as well, but Beiruty is even a notch above them, and a few notches above La Vie. The menu is extensive and has some French cuisine influence to it, but it's largely traditional Lebanese. They mentioned they're still working on additional menus, which is intriguing. Anyway, we ordered a slew of items from the menu and was impressed with all of them. The Kibbeh Nayeh is phenomenal, prepared exactly the way it should be, the hummus is the best I've ever had in a restaurant, the falafel was prepared perfectly (most places have bland, dry falafel), the grilled shawarma with crispy spiced truffle fries is dangerously delicious. The warm namoura with pistachio ice cream was top shelf. The only thing better than the food was the service. This place deserves to thrive, so I encourage anyone reading this that is on the fence about trying it out to hop off the fence. If you know good food, you know the local gems. This is certainly one of those gems you need to...

The food was incredibly flavorful and aromatic. The dishes were authentic and absolutely delicious.
We tried the hummus and pickled vegetables, the vegetable soup, savory lamb chops, beef & chicken shawarma, delectable desserts, and Turkish coffee to end the evening.
Our server, Ras, was so friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The manager came out and asked how our food was and offered us complimentary Turkish coffee.
*My only suggestion would be to bring the entrees out at the same time as one person at our table received her main course much earlier than the rest of us and was finished eating by the time we received the rest of our entrees.
Don’t hesitate to try this wonderful place filled with flavor and tastes that will quickly become one of...
