Why Travelers Love T-Marbouta
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Very authentic and delicious Lebanese food in the heart of Hamra. This was the best hummus that we've ever had in Lebanon and even in the world. We would wholeheartedly dine here again if we ever visit Lebanon. The atmosphere, the vibes, services and the taste. I liked the atmosphere the volume level of music and how quiet and calm the place was. The taste of food especially Mezza was really taken care of (made with love) The staff were welcoming and helpful with the menu Local Arak was good experience It was a good Thursday night Such an amazing local corner, it's exactly what we needed, which was a good, authentic bite after hotel check-in in Beriet It tells a story, with a very friendly staff. We loved it and highly recommended

Ever since I have first visited this place ten years ago I’ve been captivated by its elegance over and over again. Not a single time was the food late, not a single time was the service anything less than perfect. Their signature dishes are pure dopamine entering my system especially their Batata Harra. To top that up, Celine has been a cherry on top addition to this establishment, simply caring with a unique wise taste when it comes to food selection. Celine is always full heartedly serving food made with love and gives you this feeling that a great memory is being made on every occasion meant to be at T-Marbouta. By far the atmosphere and ambience surrounding this place are the best in Beirut for all the good reasons.

A great place for a meal or just a drink. I came here three times during my 10 days in Beirut. Great vibe, friendly staff and good food. Nice shaded outdoor courtyard or indoor air-conditioned space. It's not well sign posted. Look hard for the entrance door at the rear-left of the area behind Starbucks.
