"A nice, family restaurant that produces normal Lebanese food. Nothing out of the ordinary but it was an enjoyable experience nonetheless and service was very good. It’s suitable for all the family kids too as there’s no alcohol and no shisha. The mezze selection was quite nice but I feel overpriced at £20 for the smallest plate and contains only the basic items (hummus, baba ghanoush, mutabbel, tabbouleh, wara inab, felafel and the strangest muhammara I’ve tasted in quite some time. Personally I didn’t like the look of the buffet (all hot items with a lot of meat and no mezze selection so I ordered a la carte instead. Buffet was £12.99 for adults, £6.99 for kids 5 10 I think and free for under 5’s. I’d definitely return but don’t expect anything really amazing here."

"We came here since a buddy had told us about it. Such a great experience, I must say. The service is excellent, and the personnel is warm and welcoming. Babaghanouj Grilled Halloumi is what I ordered, and I give it a perfect score of 10. The Falafel Shaamia Lamb Bourak that my companion ordered was delicious.Please accept my recommendation that this be done for you!"

"We brought my father here for his 75th birthday and he had a wonderful time. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Our waiter, Season, was attentive and took great care of us. We ordered a variety of mezze dishes, which was the perfect way to try a little bit of everything. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant. Highly recommended."

"After Arabica reminded me just how good food from the Levant could be, even if it was at the expense of that month's salary, I was in the mood for a nice big Lebanese lunch where portions weren't measured by the teaspoon and where I might feel I'd got my money's worth. Most Lebanese (I realise there's a bit of crossover with various different countries' cuisines Syrian, Israeli, Palestinian, but I'm going to stick with calling it Lebanese because I don't know any better) food I've tried has all been of a solid minimum standard; maybe Middle Eastern chefs are all trained very well, or maybe it's just difficult to mess up hummus and tabouleh. Either way, while the service in a number of...read more"

"since the change of property recently, I have dined twice in this Lebanese restaurant. both paintings, my friends and I enjoyed. decor has an authentic feel. very extensive menu for excellent trips. the personal is most helpful, but a little inexperienced, which in no way makes a pleasant experience. that will certainly improve. also very flexible, for example, there was no objection to me to order a meal to be shared by me and a child. has a large spacious interior dining area, additionally space outside the front for those who want to eat and smoke, or just a break and a zigarette that is protected from the elements when needed. how the dishes are prepared at the order, prepare them to wait, especially when all the appetizers are hot. if some nibbles, such as olives etc. were made available, the waiting time would appear less. because the restaurant has no license, they recommend to bring their own wein or beer with you. however, their unusual taste smoothings etc. are delicious and highly recommended try, regardless of byo. a proposed improvement would be better quality, greater serviettes. I want to visit again in any case!"

"The restaurant has a beautiful ambiance with a lot of effort put into its design. However, I requested a quiet table away from the doors and was instead seated between a bustling kitchen entrance and three families with small children. The service is quite fast, matching the pace of the kitchen, which means that food arrives as soon as it's ready. This setup isn't ideal for four people dining together. Additionally, the app menu differs from the printed menu."

"The food quality at this restaurant is consistently excellent! The quick and friendly service only adds to the experience. While we didn't bring our own alcohol this time, it's still great value for the delicious, fresh, and high-quality food we received. We often bring first-time visitors here and they always want to return!"

"Our multi generational family group really enjoyed our meal here recently. They are a family run restaurant specialising in traditional Lebanese and Syrian food. The menu is quite comprehensive to say the least, and not being *that* familiar with the cuisine of this region we opted for a few starter dishes we'd heard of (such as Babaghanouj) together with some others we hadn't. Sharing everything was a great way to try multiple things and I'd recommend it here as there were some really tasty discoveries. For mains, most of us chose a kebab in one form or another, with separate servings of salad and rice (the Mujadara rice whole lentils rice cooked in vegetable oil spices, topped with fried onions was really good). As an added bonus, you can bring your own alcohol with you the corkage is only £1 a bottle. They also stock a range of Lebanese wines and beers as well as some mainstream beers. Given how popular the restaurant was on a Sunday evening goes to show they cook and serve great food. We'll definitely be returning here."

"Having read previous reviews we had prepared ourselves for a long wait but our food arrived very quickly. It was delicious! Very friendly and helpful staff, food fairly priced and the portions are huge, the amount of food waste they produce must be quite significant. With that in mind and knowing they are still in the process of developing their menu, might be a good idea if one could order half portions instead. Just a suggestion! Thank you for a very flavoured culinary experience, we would definitely go back to experiment further."

"No doubt their lamb Sharwarma and sautéed liver is a show stopper here. It's BYOB, Chefs, and Staff are very attentive, a very nice ambience (warm, clean, and cosy). What more can you ask for... the price? Very reasonable! It's £7-8.00 for their lunch menu offer (12 -4 pm) so you can taste the good food for yourselves. I've been eating here for three years or more, I think, and the standards of quality are well maintained. See you tomorrow, guys!"

"my visit to beirut meza I liked very well, although my eyes might have been too big for mine. I had several of the hot and cold midshot, of which I would highly recite the hommos (a slightly spicy version) and the kalaj beirut mezza (a hello stuff flatbread) the chef, imad, clearly has a strong passion for eating that he cooks, and was about the dishes worth knowing would again eat a lot."

"I met a very old and good friend for lunch here she had recently visited Iran so wanted to be reminded of an interesting time. Having read the previous Tripadvisor reviews, we were prepared for the £10 corkage fee. I prefer white wine at...lunch, she prefers red. So we each brought a bottle and asked if we could drink half each for £10. The answer was no. So we both drank the white wine, which was fine, albeit the corkage was a bit more than the wine itself cost. We both had Jooeh and shared a Taboulah. Perfectly nice and good, but not exceptionally so. Plus an absolute mountain of rice! To finish, I was somewhat staggered by the Mint Tea, which was rather strong black tea with a couple of bits of mint in it and it cost £6.50 for one person. The staff were charming and doing their very best, but at £63 for one course plus the corkage I'm not sure it's a destination restaurant."

"My husband ordered the vegan homemade melanzane, and it was delicious. I ordered the vegan spaghetti napolitana. It was on the bland side, but still quite good. There was a little bit of olive oil in it and it added a nice flavor. I also had the spicy garden salad, which was very flavorful. The staff was very helpful and very willing to accommodate me and make suggestions for me with my allergies. We went a second time because we were looking for some place close to where we were staying. We had the high protein salad, which contained chickpeas, red beans, olives, and mixed greens tossed with tahini and lemon juice. We also ordered the side of guacamole, which came with pickled jalapenos, sliced cherry tomatoes, small chunks of tomato, and tortilla chips. Both were delicious.

"Extremely disappointed with this restaurant and seriously concerned about their (lack of) adherence to government guidelines around social distancing. Upon arrival (I had made a booking for 2), we were ushered to the tiny back area of the restaurant which was absolutely rammed with tables. The person leading us to our table actually asked another customer to stand up to give us his chair as 5 people were sitting on a 4 seater table. We were sat around 30cm away from the other customers so no distancing in place whatsoever. We waited at the table for around 15 minutes without menus or anyone paying us any attention. Seeing as there were only 3 people manning a VERY packed restaurant, it was no wonder they could not keep up with their service. That, and the fact that no consideration was given for our safety, led us to just leave the restaurant and look for something else. Thankfully there are lots of other lovely places to eat around Balham, otherwise it would have ruined our evening."
