an old style traditional Lebanese house transformed into a restaurant with authentic food can be a great experience and Em Sharif adds the cherry on top.

the menu list, atmosphere, location, decoration, service are all amazing, though I would consider it on the higher scale of price but totally worth it.

Em Sherif offers a blend of traditional Lebanese cuisine with a twist of Armenian / Syrian cuisine, and the result is an exceptional culinary experience. The variety of dishes is amazing, the service is fast, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the food is just out of this world. A piece of advice would be to go there on an empty stomach because you need all the available space to be able to try out everything they offer. The prices are on the high end but it's worth every penny and it's best to go there with a group of friends so you can share different dishes.

For people that get lost chosing from the menu em sherif is the place for them. As soon as u sit and delicious lebanese messeh starts raining on u. Delicious lebanese mezzeh and dishes. Nice setting. At dinner time there is an arabic band with oud that makes the experience memorable. A must try while in lebanon. Expensive as a whole but definitely worth it and u wouldn't feel hungry for a couple of days.

This is an authentic Lebanese restaurant with a touch of class. Good quality food with variety covering most of the Lebanese Mezze
The only suggestion to Imm Cherif is that the quantity of food is too much for a set menu

By far the best lebanese restaurant out there. Everything is perfect : the atmosphere, the food, the service and the staff. And above everything, it goes by the highest standards of hygiene. We loved every minute and every dish. Worth every penny, and a place we would definitely come back to, and very very highly recommend.
