Beirut is a welcoming restaurant with a cosy atmosphere in which to enjoy authentic, tasty Lebanese cuisine. Either sit downstairs by the open doors for a drink or a meal accompanied with the sights and sounds of Lan Kwai Fong or retire to the upstairs dining area where you can lounge on the comfy sofa seating and concentrate on the food.

Colourful ethnic hanging lamps create a subdued, soft lighting while the numerous guilded and mosaic mirrors and the Lebanese music add to the Middle-Eastern ambience. You'll feel wonderfully calm and cossetted by the friendly service.

All time favourites here are the hummus with pita bread, falafel, shawarma and tabbouleh. The set lunch usually offers a salad to start and then a shawarma wrapped in paper to eat in your hands, making it a relaxed and casual experience. But come at dinner to really indulge in dishes you have never tried before.

Beirut caters for private parties, and provides a list of finger foods for junk trips.
