Diner

Excellent food. Lebanese or italian menu are a must. Tasty appetizer with original presentation, seafood pasta. And the view of Phenician harbour or sunset. Unforgetable visit

Great Food, Better View

The food was amazing, the service was above and beyond and the view from the restaurant was once of a kind. I highly recommend you make a trip to Malena if you’re in the Byblos area.

Amazing food!

We came here on a recommendation and loved it! The location was fantastic and our waitress (Stephanie) was lovely, very accommodating and very professional. We had their fattoush & chicken shawarma and it was delicious. Would recommend this place to anyone who visits Byblos!

Excellent seafood dish

This restaurant is quite hidden away, but well worth the visit! I know a lot of people may be anxious about eating seafood overseas; however, the seafood linguine I had was delicious and I felt great the next day. The portions were very generous and...the menu has a mix of everything, from local cuisine, to burgers or Italian dishes. Lovely view of the sea too, from a high vantage point! Also has Wifi available for free.More

Great food and fantastic staff!

I went to Malena restaurant twice, I assume the tour company has a deal with them, one was in my tour to Byblos and the other one coming back from Tripoli. Food is very good and a looooootttt! Their baba ganoush is delicious!!!!, 2nd time...I had finish and it was delicious! first time Stephanie gave us for free dessert, Ashta? maybe... Stephanie is superfun, she likes feeding tourists (literally will put the food in your mouth showing you how to eat the pita bread with food)... maybe if I wasn't in a good mood it would be weird and intrusive but I was in a good mood and couldn't believe it so I just laugh.. =) She pushed a lot for the tripadvisor review which as I promised is here... I would have done it anyway because the restaurant is very nice and has a great view of the small harbour.. =)More
