Best Lebanese restaurants in Brussels
Have you just gotten out of work, the fridge is empty and you're too lazy to go shopping or get busy behind your stove? It's done, tonight we have dinner in a restaurant in Brussels! We would go well to manage in a Japanese, but we already did it yesterday. Thai, Chinese, Belgian it's deja vu. Why not a Lebanese restaurant for a change?
If the box of chickpeas lying around in the back of your cupboard perhaps does not make you dream, once included in a lebanese mezze, it will be quite different. Lebanese cuisine is friendly and share with friends.
At the Lebanese restaurant, dishes full of sunshine and flavors await you. Hummus, falafels, eggplant caviar and other dishes will be on the menu.
Eating Lebanese food also means, for some, a very wide selection of vegetarian dishes. And for vegetarians, don't despair! There's more than just vegetables on your plate. You'll find it very difficult to choose from all the dishes that Lebanese cuisine has to offer.
While almost all your friends can recommend a nice restaurant or two, few will be able to tell you about the best Lebanese restaurants in Brussels. Of course, there's no single "best Lebanese restaurant." Tastes vary... Inside Brussels therefore offers you a selection of the Lebanese restaurants that we consider the best in Brussels.
1. Al barmaki! The Lebanese restaurant near the Grand Place in Brussels
Although located near the famous grand place in brussels, Al Barmaki is well hidden and difficult to find in a small alley. Here we do not choose a dish, but we come for the Mezze, it is more user-friendly. Everyone takes 2-3 things and then we share. here for 30 years, regulars recommend: hummus, garlic scampis, chicken livers, Falafels, frog legs, grilled quail.
Count around 30€ per person with a bottle of wine. Payment cash or Mastercard (not Bancontact)

3. Mont Liban: a quality Lebanese restaurant also to take away
It's always a good sign to see many 'natives' in a restaurant. In the Mont Liban restaurant, we often find Lebanese people there who come to look for good products. Mount Lebanon is a classic for the Lebanese take-away in Brussels. You will most likely find your favorite Lebanese dishes among those on the menu. The portions are generous and the prices democratic. Don't be in a hurry, your order sometimes takes a little time.
Not to be missed either, the famous Sunday morning lebanese brunch. On the menu: meat or spinach turnovers, simmered dishes as well as a choice of pastries and a nice platter of fresh fruit. All at will for 27€.

Here is a nice place run by a great boss who will give you a warm welcome! The whole team takes great care, and the quality will be there!

Barely a foot in the Belgian capital, Pierre launched “InsideBrussels.be” more than 10 years ago, the idea is simple: “What to do? Where to go to eat or have a drink? “. Entrepreneur at heart, this is not his first project! Far from there. EatLocal.io; KingCard.be, Bricabrac.be … Like wine, with time the project improves!
Pierre does not hesitate to share his favorites and his best addresses of Brussels restaurants that he could recommend to you with his eyes closed.
Personally, I love O Lebanon! Remember to book well in advance (especially on weekends) as it is often full. In addition in the evening on weekends they have a dancer who does a belly dancing demo: so it's a very nice atmosphere. We spend a great evening and their mezze are very very hearty (impossible to leave hungry).
