Lebanese food at its best

This is a Lebanese restaurant with a touch of modernity over typical-ity. Amazing dishes with the kebabs at the end really impressing. If you enjoy Lebanese food, when in Beirut, this is an excellent choice.

Incredible Mezze!

Reserve a table at Em Sherif (Victor Hugo Street) for their spread of incredible mezze.
A daily set menu offering the best the market has to offer, prepared and served under the watchful eye of Em Sherif herself, this is a Beirut experience not to be missed.
Expect 34 items for lunch (US$45), a table spread with colourful dishes and to taste the distinct flavours of Lebanon. The opulent interior matches the warmth, richness and vitality of all things Em Sherif.
