“ Always good and friendly. My second visit this evening and still pleased. Their beef shawarma is delicious. ”

“ The shrarma sandwich was delicious. The lamb and beef were perfectly seasoned. And it was big enough for two! ”

“ Tiny shop with tasty food. Portions are a good size and the owner was very friendly and helpful. We had to come at lunch time on another day as the first time we went to the shop there was a long line. The only thing we weren't too crazy about was their flat bread that tends to be break easily (not light a fluffy but more like a chip). Falafels had a good texture and taste. ”

“ We had a delicious lunch at chez le libanais with the traditional Lebanese bread which the staff/owner kindly explained. I had the zataar and my husband has the lamb. Both were delicious and the desserts were perfect and handheld for the walk back. Cozy restaurant and very kind staff made this a really nice stop. The mint tea was perfect for the chilly weather as well! ”

“ This is such a fantastic place to get your Lebanese fix. We made our way across Paris to try this place and patiently waited in long lines. As we approached the counter we asked for an English menu. They were patient with us while we ordered and we got the spinach, lamb and potato wraps for 3 of us. Luckily for us the limited seating opened up at that time for us. It was fanatic to observe the operations on a very busy night and how great everyone was with the customers on a very hot Paris evening. We got our food and it was hot and just delicious. Each of the wraps was different and was enough for an individual meal. Highly recommend this place - I wish they would open up a place in San Diego!! ”

“ Chez Le Libanais is a must to satisfy your Lebanese Shawarma needs when you are in Paris! Huge shoutout to Mark Wiens for the recommendation! I got the lamb Shawarma wrap and everything was fresh on the inside ! Also get their garlic sauce to replace for mayonnaise! Thank me later ! ”

“ Local Lebanese dive. In the back there are 4 chairs & it's difficult to get one but once you do, hold onto it! I purchased the falafel plate which came with 4 falafel, salad, hummus, bread, pickles, choice of drink (mint tea), and dessert (baklava). Overall healthy and filling. I was unsure if the meat is halal but I also didn't ask. I am not sure if the full size restaurant across the way is still there or not as I did not see it--but I may have missed it. ”

“ During a visit to Paris years ago, I was astounded by the manakeesh prepared at the takeout window at Chez le Libanais. Returning years later, I finally got to go to their sit down restaurant across the street, where I ordered the mezze set menu for two. These small plates are my favorite way to share a Lebanese meal, because you get to try out so many different dishes and dips. The set menu came with five cold mezzes, eight pastries/fritters, and one warm dish. The mezzes included a creamy, lemony hummus, baba ghanoush (eggplant puréed with tahini), tabbouleh, mujadarah (puréed rice and lentils topped with fried onions), and shanklish (crumbled cheese mixed with parsley and topped with tomatoes). The plate of "beignets" included two pastries filled with ground meat, two pastries with spinach, two turnovers filled with meat, and two donut-shaped falafels with tarator sauce (tahini and lemon juice). And finally, the hot dish was made with chicken wings and drumettes in a savory spiced sauce. All of the dishes went nicely with the basket of thin pita bread and a dollop of the housemade chili sauce. While everything was tasty and the service was friendly, the prices were definitely high for the quality of the dishes. If I had to choose between the takeout window and the sit-down restaurant, I'd stick with the more casual option. ”
