Beirut Restaurant in Köln

Buena comida y excelente servicio! Pedí el baba ghanoush y las chuletas de cordero, buena carne y buenos toques extra. Antes de pedir el pan caliente que servimos en su mesa. Muy bonito.

The food was so delicious and the service was really great too

Delicious and fresh food! Highly recommend!

Delicious food but very small place

Great food. Good portions. Friendly service.

We went to their place on Sunday afternoon for lunch. The place is in very close proximity of Dom, cologne station. The food was very delicious, everything was fresh.

The food was absolutely fine, we liked it, but the service left a lot to be desired. The staff was quite attentive, but correct communication was not easy due to the staff's lack of German language skills. Furthermore, card payment was not possible with a separate invoice, was this an accommodation on the part of the restaurant? None! No understanding of it.

Very tasty food. Very nice service. Again and again!

Definitely recommended for typical Lebanese food! The restaurant is quite narrow (but that's not a problem), so you should definitely make a reservation. The range of excellent Lebanese wines, for example from the Bekaa Valley, is remarkable.

Delicious food, service is friendly but the main course comes even though the starter hasn't been eaten yet. Quite noisy environment.

Highly recommended, Cozy, friendly staff and surprisingly very tasty. Found this place through reviews and I can only confirm that this was a very nice and top experience of Lebanese cuisine.

The food was really tasty and authentic. Just like Lebanese or Arabic cuisine should be! Overall, everything went well. I can definitely recommend it. The prices were okay. Service was fine and they were friendly. The ambience was quite OK, felt more "snack bar" to me.

Das erste Mal dort gewesen und es war richtig lecker! Sehr freundlicher Service. Ein wenig laut, aber noch ok. Ohne diese Plattform wären wir sicherlich vorbei gegangen. Eine Reservierung ist dringend anzuraten!

Charming restaurant. Excellent welcome, the employee put our luggage in a locker room so we wouldn't be crowded. Excellent food.

There is nothing dirtier than this in all of Germany. There is no food, no place, no workers, and no owner of the restaurant. It is all rubbish. Shame on you. It is forbidden to name the store Beirut. The name of the store must be, for example, the Junk Restaurant or Beirut Ali Express.

For fans of Arabic flavors. The food is very good, the tea is great, and you can also drink a nice digestif. The service was helpful, specific and smiling.

Super tasty dishes, especially from the charcoal grill, very good for sharing. Nice service, quick, very good location. Important: No card payment.

The service is attentive and warm, and you really feel welcome here. The portions are generous and the price-performance ratio is absolutely right. For anyone who craves delicious oriental cuisine, the Beirut Restaurant in Cologne is definitely a top recommendation! I'll definitely come back.

Super tasty, super nice staff If you order the menu for 2 people, be sure to be hungry😉 But they also like to pack up the rest

It is always an experience to eat here. The food is really authentic and incredibly tasty and, more importantly, of noticeably good quality. The atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant and the staff are without exception friendly and accommodating. We always enjoy coming here and would love to eat our entire menu every time. Keep it up!

I had an absolutely delightful dining experience at beirut restaurant with my girlfriend, The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with authentic decor that really made us feel home since we’re lebanese.The menu was extensive, offering a variety of traditional Lebanese dishes that taste exactly like in lebanon, also the service was welcoming and fast, we ordered the set menu for 2 people that the waiter recommended for us, it is better to book a reservation because the restaurant is crowded.

Saturday evening reservation for 2 people - we were ignored for 30 minutes, stood as ordered and not picked up (in the truest sense) with about 15 other people waiting in the entrance area half inside, half outside in a chaotic atmosphere. The place was packed and the food smelled very good indeed. We'll never know how it tastes, because after the service ultimately completely lost track of the waiting situation and assigned a table to people with later reservations before us (who of course accepted it against their better judgment, thanks for nothing), we had enough and we left without having accomplished anything. I don't need that much contempt.

Reserved a table and waited outside for an hour. That wasn't my main problem, but the boss who runs everything is simply unfriendly and almost impossible to talk to because he is stressed. All the employees are very nice and friendly except for this old man. You come to eat with your money and he gives this feeling like we want to eat there for free… Food is very tasty!

Taste, quantity, quantity, ambience, and service 10/10 😍😋🤩🤩🤩 In search of Halal food from Gummersbach to Cologne, I finally spotted Beirut Restaurant with halal certification... simply loved the taste, sauces, and thickness of fries 🍟.. yayyy

Sauce that came out of a can, the microwave, or both. Gruesomely overcooked vegetables. And a staff that behaved as though I was interrupting their evening by being there as a customer. Card payments not accepted. Not an enjoyable experience.

A popular restaurant located in an inconspicuous back alley. When I visited at night, it was so crowded that I couldn't get in, so I went back the next day for lunch. The seats were empty, so I was able to enjoy my meal slowly. A steady stream of take-out customers came in, all ordering things that looked like wrap sandwiches made of thin dough. I ordered a dish of fried thin dough stuffed with meat, a salad with lots of tomatoes and parsley, a sweet called baklava, and Lebanese coffee. Guests seated at a table are served a basket of thin pita bread-like food. This very thin pita bread is chewy and has a slightly salty taste. I'm sure it will be delicious if you order meat dishes and wrap them up. The dish, which resembles a deep-fried minced meat wrap, is made by wrapping spiced minced lamb in bread dough and deep-frying it.The dish is reminiscent of a snack that goes well with alcohol when eaten with sour cream for dipping. The tomato and parsley salad has a refreshing taste with a generous squeeze of lemon. It has a refreshing taste because it has a large amount of chopped parsley. I think it goes well with rich meat dishes. Baklava is a pastry made of chopped mixed nuts mixed with honey, wrapped in a thin spring roll-like wrapper, and deep-fried. It's not too sweet, and the nutty flavor stands out. Lebanese coffee is made by boiling finely ground coffee in a special device and pouring it into a small cup. Add the sugar and mix, then let it sit for a few minutes until the fine powder settles out, then drink it gently. I drank it without sugar, but it was completely different from the coffee I usually drink, and the flavor was strong and woody, like tree roots. Is it delicious? When asked, it's hard to describe because it was my first time drinking coffee, but I learned the appeal of a new type of coffee. I think it's better to drink it with sugar. I think it's even better when paired with sweets such as baklava. It was my first time trying Lebanese food, but I would like to try the meat dishes next time as there are many skewered meat dishes and other attractive menu items. Lebanese cuisine and Greek cuisine seem to be popular in Europe.

Food great as always, I've been going here for about 20 years and have celebrated my birthday here twice. The place is a bit old, color in one place or another doesn't take away from the charm and casual clothing is good as long as it stays neat!

We have been there several times and are thrilled every time! You immediately immerse yourself in another world, a very nice atmosphere, everything seems very authentic. The food is always of a high standard and the price/performance is absolutely okay. The grilled chicken skewers were on point and extremely juicy. All side dishes and especially the starters and dips were very tasty. If you want to experience something new and different, this is the place for you. A hidden pearl in the old town!

It was our first time in Beirut and we were completely thrilled. The food (vegetarian menu) was varied, very tasty and plentiful. The service was courteous and very nice. We will definitely come back and can really recommend the restaurant without reservation.

Immediately after the starter we all got diarrhea!!

Once again a delicious meal. We always come back here when we are in Cologne.

The staff were very accommodating to our 6 guest party. The food…it was awesome and took me back to my own travels through the Middle East.

The food is very bad and has nothing to do with Lebanese food. It is not similar to it at all. Lebanese food is better than it. This restaurant is very expensive for no reason. There is nothing good inside it and it does not taste good. An experience that will never be repeated. The food is very bad and has nothing to do with Lebanese food. It doesn't resemble it at all.

The restaurant was busy and thriving. The food was very tasty and served quickly. Good vegetarian options were available. The seating was a little cramped. The staff tried to accommodate our toddler despite no high chairs.

We had a very delicious evening in Beirut

It would be much much better if the restaurant has proper ventilation. Your clothes will smell bad if you spend few hours.

A bad restaurant in every respect

I swear to God, without lying, a bad restaurant, bad food, bad treatment, and disrespectful people. I swear to God, we didn't order anything. 71 euros and 80 cents. I swear to God Almighty. He didn't let me go out without taking 80 cents. I swear to God, eat it at a Chinese restaurant and don't eat it. Is it Danziq?

Deliberately chosen for Christmas Day - we liked it and enjoyed it

Busy but the door is SO GOOD! (And the People are nice)

Super tasty! It wasn't the last time we were there! Top! service

We visited the restaurant for the first time and were very impressed. The restaurant is really very authentic. We really liked the decor and the Arabic music. Here you can really break out of your cosmos and immerse yourself in another country. The quality of the food is good and the food is prepared very well. The charcoal grilled dishes are particularly great. The full 5 stars are finally appropriate here. We say thank you and see you next time.

3 of us went for dinner. A plate of pickles and olives was served. The meals were generous portions and delicious. The sinks were also clean. I saw the staff just a little bored. Unfortunately, their prices are above average.

Very uninterested staff, i had to wait 40 minutes for my order to arrive after they forgot my order and i had to remind them that i have ordered. They should really learn how to serve a customer. The sitting is very tight, had to force myself out of the sitting area. The food was very mid

Super Lecker! Nettes Personal. Wir kommen wieder & empfehlen, dieses Restaurant weiter! Wirklich Toll. Zum Schluss gibt es noch Tee auf aufs Haus

The reception was very unfriendly, probably the HR manager. It definitely needs training. I don't recommend.

The food was very tasty and the service was quick. It's very cramped in the restaurant, more like a kind of snack bar. The selection is very diverse.

The shawarma wrap on hand was very tasty. The meat is well seasoned, but almost too salty. If you order to go, you have to wait at the front counter and there is little space. It takes a little longer than other snacks. Unfortunately, you have the feeling that you are disturbing guests and employees.

This old Lebanese restaurant is a hidden gem with simple, no-frills seating that adds to its charm. The staff, though incredibly busy, are warm and friendly. A word of advice: reserve, reserve, reserve! If you’re lucky enough to snag a table without a reservation, count yourself blessed. The food is Absolutely incredible. The flavors are authentic, rich, and unforgettable. The meat dishes, in particular, are divine—tender, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection.

The shawarma was too bland. Service was unfriendly and did not respond to my request as to how I would like my shawarma filled.

I will never go again. I do not recommend.

Good food but small portions and service that could be improved Food: The taste of the food was really excellent. Unfortunately, the portions were quite small, which, combined with the prices, significantly reduces the value for money. Service: The food was prepared quickly, which was a positive. However, the waiters could be a little friendlier and more attentive - a smile often makes a big difference! Location: Very central and easily accessible, which is definitely a plus. Conclusion: It's worth a visit for the taste alone, but if you value larger portions, you may want to consider an alternative.

The audience is just as colorful as the food. The Fatousch is a dream. The best salad I've ever eaten!

The food tastes really good!! We asked the waiter if the meat was halal and he said yes. Only later did we see that alcohol was also sold in this restaurant. Where alcoholic beverages are sold, no one usually pays attention to whether the meat is halal. We should have paid more attention, but maybe it will help other Muslims who pay attention like we do.

Would be a 4.5, it's really tasty and well priced but really tight

Pequeño y fácil de extrañar, excepto por los olores que ondean que es lo que llamó nuestra atención. Fuimos a sentarnos a cenar y tuvimos el menú recomendado que era de 40 euros por persona pero venía con una cerveza, un montón de aperitivos como platos, plato de carne principal, postre y té. Vale la pena. Mi comida favorita en Colonia.

Very nice place! Authentic Lebanese food for reasonable prices… The fattoush salad was so yummy ! And the mixed grill is recommended too

The food is good and the service is good, but the prices are very expensive The right to two shawarma meals with a cola is 44 euros

My rating is not exaggerated. Very accommodating and attentive. The food was great. You can pay by card (Nov 2024).

Food was dry and inedible A grill plate for 25 euros contained a chicken, a lamb skewer and some meat that was not identified. All three skewers were about 15 cm long with a little rice. For 25 euros the size of the portion is a joke. We were still happy about it because the food was inedible. Dry, the lamb had a strange aftertaste. Let's come to the plate with the schwarma chicken, the meat tasted like Sahara. Well, not a good experience bye

Although the guest room is small, it is very inviting. If you want to eat real Lebanese food, this is the place for you! Very, very tasty food, definitely worth another visit

All the food is delicious, especially the appetizers! Recommend this authentic restaurant and kitchen 10/10. Also very reasonable priced.

It was very tasty, the service was great and very nice 👍 👍

Super and tasty food. Service was a bit tame but efficient. Restaurant could use a little overhaul but all in all a nice experience

Amazing food! Fast service! 10/10 recommend if you live in Koln or if you are visiting for a day!

A nice restaurant with very nice food and presentation

Worst kebab I've ever eaten and I'm drunk

Very diverse, delicious and authentic food!

Very tasty food and everyone is super friendly. We drove from Koblenz to Cologne especially for this and we have to say it was worth it ☺️!!! Good tip..Make a reservation!!!

Food was really amazing, a little expensive but was worth it! Fatoush salad was really tasty! just the dinning place is quite tight

The chicken was a little too dry but otherwise good food

Food was great. All have taken place.

Buena comida, servicio antipático. El personal no se preocupó realmente por nosotros y se sintió desagradable. Comida eficiente y buena, pero poca experiencia debido al servicio indiferente. Además, solo efectivo, lo que parece extraño.

No recommendation, even one star would be too much of a good will. Where should you start, the staff and service were really not good, happy looks different too. An employee mixed beer from a strange PET bottle and a normal beer and gave it away. Closed the half open beer bottle with the crown cap and put it in the fridge. Soft drinks are way too expensive for a 0.2 glass. Food wasn't good at all Meat felt warmed several times and some of it wasn't even cooked through. My partner had number 82/83, I don't know exactly what it was, but it looked really terrible, I only knew something like that from Kabel1, the restaurant tester or whatever. They were really quick with the bill, at least that's a 1 star.

Het eten is echt fantastisch, als je hier wilt eten wel op tijd reserveren. Bediening is niet altijd even vriendelijk en de baas is een oude knorrenpot. Heel gek dat de pin het niet doet en je zal of van tevoren cash mee moeten meenemen of "even" langs de pinautomaat moeten. Het is een heel klein en gezellig restaurant. Niet het nieuwste meubilair maar goed daar kwamen we niet voor. Wij hebben met twee kids het complete menu met voor en hoofdgerecht genomen. Helaas moest dit voor drie personen terwijl onze kids niet veel en alles lusten. We hebben daardoor veel eten tegen onze wil moeten laten staan. Het eten is daarentegen echt fantastisch. Maar de volgende keer bestellen we iets los van de kaart ipv een duur menu en de helft laten staan

Reservations in advance are a must. If you didn't know where to find it, you would walk right past it. The welcome by the boss was okay and not very warm. Unfortunately we had to take the walk through the kitchen for three people. While we, two adults with two kids, knew that the menu would be sufficient for two people. Because we had to order for three people, we unfortunately had to leave more food than we wanted. The food is really fantastic, it is enough and with the walk through the kitchen you get to taste everything that we would not otherwise order.

Kommen immer wieder gerne 👌😋 Das essen ist einfach genial. Und da kann man bestellen was man will. Auch das Drumherum passt 👍.

Yes, I was skeptical, but I was very positively surprised. Delicious fresh food, good service and delicious tea on the house. Thank you

The best Lebanese food in Cologne! It's definitely our favorite spot for Kebbeh and labneh. Super friendly staff.

A very cosy and nice restaurant,the welcome and the service are great and quick. The food is delicious and the quantities are good. Totally recommend Lebanese food

If you want to know how incredibly delicious Lebanese food can be, Beirut is the right place for you. Super fresh, very good portions and perfectly priced. The shop is very authentic and despite the noise and the bustling atmosphere, you immediately feel very comfortable and warmly welcomed. It was simply wonderful and I'm already looking forward to the next meal in Beirut.

Very cozy atmosphere family-run restaurant, extremely friendly staff and authentic Lebanese food. The only con is price a bit above average.

A wonderful place. Everything was nice and special, from the food to the cleanliness of the treatment and the atmosphere inside the restaurant. You feel like you are in Syria and Lebanon.

We passed this Lebanese restaurant by chance, we got a table for 2 for an hour. The food is simply delicious, the oriental spicy potatoes, you can't prepare potatoes any better. We'll be happy to come back but don't forget to make a reservation!!

It is very nice restaurant, food is delicious and workers are really kind. The atmosphere is great. I really enjoyed the food there.

Delicious halal food with good environment

The place is messy and poorly ventilated. Also, the prices are inflated and expensive compared to the small portions. The service was not good and the space is cramped.

Great restaurant! The food was excellent – ​​fresh, tasty and beautifully presented. The [Shaworma arabai] in particular was a highlight. The team was incredibly friendly and attentive, I immediately felt welcome. Perfect service and delicious dishes – I’ll definitely be back!

Authentic libanese food in the heart of Cologne city, highly recommended, good prices and great crew. Only cash payments though.

Wat een geweldig restaurant! Je waant je zo in Beiroet. Een klein restaurant in het hartje van Keulen. Gelukkig hadden we gereserveerd, want het zat tot de nok vol. De obers moesten even puzzelen, maar uiteindelijk konden we met z’n 4-en boven gezellig zitten. We kozen voor het Mäse Menu. Voor €47 p.p. de tafel vól met de meest heerlijke voor- en hoofdgerechten. Echt van een waanzinnig hoog niveau. De bediening was echt prima; leuke kerels die ook wel tegen een geintje kunnen. Het dessert en de koffie hebben we alle vier laten staan; dat was écht niet naar onze smaak. Al met al een een geweldig gezellige en smaakvolle avond!

had the shish taouk and the fattoush salad. Both were delicious. The bread could have been better if it had been served fresh from the grill rather than warmed up. Still very tasty and definitely recommended. also there was no tap water available so I had to pay 3 euros for a small bottle. I'm not sure if it's common practice not to offer tap water to customers?

Very authentic. Very tasty food. If you want to take a trip to Middle Eastern cuisine, this is the right place for you. We only ordered starters. Since these portions were so large, you didn't have to order anything else. The staff was very polite and accommodated every request. The boys have the place under control. When we're back in Cologne, we'd love to come back.

Pricey but worth the money! Super nice service and delicious food!

We hebben hier heerlijk gegeten voor een goede prijs. Het vlees heeft een lekkere rooksmaak van de houtskoolgrill, de groenten zijn zeer vers en de bediening is zeer vriendelijk. De gerechten stonden vrij snel op tafel.

Wallah almost stabbed, just knife on leg

Very tasty, but relatively expensive. Card payment not possible at first, then yes. You may want to ask before eating.

It was a failed visit to Beirut Restaurant The dishes do not represent the entire food of Lebanon The dishes were very bad and the prices were very expensive

Very tasty food, fast service. You should reserve a table.

Very good food, nice and fast service

Disappointing and overpriced – not recommended! I was really disappointed with the Beirut restaurant in Cologne. The food is absolutely overpriced and in no way justifies the high prices. The portions are tiny and anything but generous. In terms of taste, it wasn't anything special - everything was very unspectacular and nothing that you couldn't get better or cheaper elsewhere. The service also left a lot to be desired. You had the feeling that the employees didn't really enjoy their job, and that was clearly noticeable in the lack of warmth in the atmosphere. The atmosphere that you would expect from a restaurant like this is completely absent. In addition, the tables inside were dirty and there were leftovers from previous guests on them - apparently they are not cleaned regularly or thoroughly enough. Furthermore, this is not a place for children and there are no chairs for children. Overall, absolutely no recommendation. There are far better options in Cologne.
