Cafe Beirut - Edmonton

We purchased a Groupon offering food at Cafe Beirut. We arrived at Cafe Beirut looking forward to Mediterranean food. What we observed was our table and one other were ordering a meal. The rest of guests were ordering hookah pipes and bottled water. We found this interesting and but not disturbing. However as the evening went on, the place filled with guests smoking. As our food arrived, the air was so full of smoke and the smell overpowered our dinner. It was hard to enjoy our food. It seems strange that we purchased a Groupon for food when food didn't appear to be the main focus of this cafe. Disappointed!

We had a groupon to try the new Cafe Beirut, on 107 street just south of Jasper Ave. We started with the falafel, had two different mixed grills for main course, and the baklava for dessert. We enjoyed every bite! The food was tasty, fresh, the baklava was amazing. The food was well priced, and the service was friendly.I'd absolutely recommend this little place.

Fatoush (a salad) is "phenomenal" (my daughter's descriptor). For about $8, it's a bargain. I had the combination platter ($21) with beef and chicken plus humus, baba ganouche, musakaat, two different kinds of bread and some other things. It was tasty and reasonably priced. They do take out and have a few tables.

We decided to try this small largely takeout restaurant on Whyte Ave based on a number of positive reviews. We were not disappointed. All of the salads were made fresh in front of us and the meat cooked to order. We ate in the small front half of the store but the lack of elegance was more than made up for by the meal. This is Lebanese cuisine at it s finest.There are a number of options within the city, but this has to be one of the best.

I went to Cafe Beirut to meet up with a group of about ten friends. It was a perfect place for us because it has counter service and you can pay as you go so as friends drifted in and out we just went up to order more food as we needed it and it was brought to the table in a prompt manner.The woman working was extremely busy as the entire restaurant was full and she also had take out orders coming through but she kept up well, preparing the food and bringing it out in a timely manner.This is good quality, convenient Lebanese food. The baba ghanoush was good, smokier than many places and this is something of an aquired taste. All other dips are very standard and what you would expect. They have very good vegetarian options as well as standard meat dishes.I will definitely go back although I would make a reservation next time.
