It's hard to resist the flavors of Lebanon, especially when they're served with such generosity. Nestled in the heart of Lyon 6th, Le Comptoir Libanais immerses us in a warm atmosphere, where the mirrors on the walls reflect the constant dance of waiters and colorful dishes moving between the tables. Here, the cuisine is a true spectacle, and each plate takes our senses on a journey filled with the aromas of spices and traditions.

A Mediterranean kitchen that takes you on a journey
As soon as the mezzes arrive, it’s an explosion of colors and scents that fills the table. Creamy hummus, tangy tabbouleh, melting moussaka… Every bite takes us straight to the heart of Beirut. The mixed platter for two, a true bestseller of the restaurant, allows you to taste eight cold and hot mezzes, satisfying both the curious and the hungry. Special mention goes to the lamb kafta skewer, whose tempting aroma precedes a rich and spicy flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the hummus enhanced with ground beef and a drizzle of olive oil.

It's impossible to leave the table without a sweet touch! The mouhallabié, an orange blossom flan, intrigues with its slightly gelatinous texture. A bit perplexing at first, it ultimately charms the taste buds with its delicate and floral notes. Hearty and generous, the meal leaves some leftovers to take home, but also a strong desire to come back. It's a sunny spot, like a one-way ticket to Beirut without ever leaving the city.
