TARA CAFÉ
Read moreSituated on a small square on the edge of the Mellah, this tiny establishment really deserves encouragement.

Every day, the menu features a vegetarian platter, grilled meats with fresh salads, 2 daily specials and an array of desserts. Whatever your choice, the dish will be well presented, hearty and always subtly spiced.
ALI BABA
Read moreSince 1989, the restaurant has been welcoming lovers of good food. The menu is well-stocked, ranging from pizzas and chawarma to grilled sole and beef medallions with apples. The establishment is also renowned for its Lebanese and Moroccan specialties, such as its fine grills and delicious meat tagine with prunes. The restaurant opens onto large picture windows, offering panoramic views of the Mediterranean. The owner is very friendly and loves to chat with his customers. Good value for money.
AU PETIT LIBAN
Read moreHere is an excellent address to eat Lebanese with an impeccable quality-price ratio. In this small restaurant, everything is well cooked from the starter to the dessert. Excellent and fresh tabbouleh. The hummus is perfectly mastered as well as the cooking of falafels and kebabs, not dry and tasty, accompanied by a labneh with zaatar. Chawarmas well seasoned, declined in complete plate or in sandwich according to the hunger. The knafeh is a marvel of delicacy and not very sweet like the mhalabia: light and so perfumed. Very friendly staff.
LA CUISINE DE MONA
Read moreThis colorful, super-friendly mini restaurant is run by a Lebanese woman married to a Moroccan man. Behind the stoves, the petulant Mona concocts generous family dishes, which she inherited from her grandmother. Enjoy a succulent vegetarian lunch, or try your hand at a mezze with a dozen assortments in the purest Bekaa tradition: hummus, falafel, rissoles, kebbé, jawaneh and salade fatouche... no fewer than 40 dishes. Everything is good, spicy and fragrant, in short, an address that makes you travel.
DAMEH
Read moreHere is one of the most fashionable tables where a cuisine rich in flavors awaits you. Rounded benches covered with velvet, refined dishes and presentation, we feel that we are dealing with passionate people who have a sense of detail. In the plate, a harmonious mixture of Greek and Levantine cuisines, with Mediterranean influences, without omitting the Moroccan touch of course. The result? Convivial mezze to share, eggplant, hummus and labneh in all their most inventive forms. An original culinary concept!
SALAM SHALOM
Read moreMore than a restaurant, it's a cultural space with a hybrid concept, which has taken up residence in a riad in the heart of the medina. Different cultures are at the heart of the discussions, as well as the dishes: here, we've deliberately left the door open to Jewish, Moroccan and Lebanese inspiration, thanks to chef Saïd Belghiti. Every weekend, the premises come alive with a film screening followed by a discussion with the public, providing an opportunity for dialogue, learning and great encounters under the banner of tolerance.
