Set menu. Pricey but high quality service and premium dishes. Arabic and lebanese specialties. Impressive.

Amazing food, but do come in big groups as you pay a fixed price and then they bring 35 dishes! It's a waste if you are only 2-3 people as you won't ever finish them! The hummus is to die for btw!

One of the top Lebanese restaurants!
What distinguishes this place is that it has no menu! You pay a flat rate and the food is served according to the traditional Lebanese Mezze! Except that they serve everything with their in-house twist which gives it a yummy special taste!!
A must to visit this place if you're in Beirut and looking for some special Lebanese food!!

The Lebanese food served at Em Sherif is beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The set-menu dishes are varied and plentiful, the table setting is attractive and the service excellent. The building itself is designed in a historical style and the ornate decorations add to the ambience and style. If you have special guests or are celebrating an occasion, Em Sherif is the place to go. Book ahead - it is always very busy.
