Bucharest | Restaurants | Lebanese

Whenever we see an open kitchen we always rejoice: we see it as a good sign of the house’s confidence in its own hygienic conditions. The menu is extensive and everything on it is well executed. Greatly recommended and hugely popular, though we've had reports recently of service not being up [...]

Faultless. As cheap as chips, this is the real thing, cracking value, tasty-as-you-like Lebanese food served with minimum fuss in a decent location. The food is genuinely  terrific, you can never get a table and the legions of Lebanese who eat here almost nightly are a fair sign the kitchen is [...]

Certainly, there is some Lebanese food on the menu, but there is local food on the menu too. Don't be put off from coming though: it is a decent enough place with friendly staff and a pleasantly busy atmosphere, but the menu suffers from a common Bucharest problem of having to cater to less exotic [...]

Lebanese food that is both filling (with plenty for vegetarians to choose from) and well made. Kebabs are one of the chef's strong points, and are very tasty indeed. After your meal you can enjoy a smoke on a hookah pipe. Always packed so reserve a table. [...]

The menu may laughably invite you to 'meet specialtys,' but the standard of food here is thankfully far better than the English. Try the Kebbeh Nayeh, or the Fatteh Hummous, and the Kashta for dessert: so sweet it is all but impossible to finish. [...]

Situated on a tiny little street just north of Cismigiu, until now famous only for being home to the Apostolic Nunciature (Vatican Embassy to you and me), Tulin is a would-be Lebanese restaurant that just about gets away with it. There is enough variety on the menu beyond the obligatory falafel (which is good) to keep most groups happy, and as you will want to taste as many dishes as possible, try to round up a gang before visiting. Particularly good we thought were the rassasfur (spicy beef with onion) and the araes kafta (breaded lamb meatballs). [...]
