We arrived on Saturday around 12:30p and the place was packed for lunch. The patrons were of all ages and from diverse demographics. Based on the sound level everyone was having a good time. I'm not sure the staffing was enough for the crowd and it was probably the reason for the slow start for getting started with our experience. However, it did seem about 10min later more staff arrived and Jacob became our server and attention was much improved. The delay in getting started had no impact on the timing or quality of the food. When I see Watermelon Salad on the menu I have to order it. I loved the combination of flavors, but wished the cucumber was cut larger in order to scoop them up to eat and a lot less red onions. The quantity balance was off, but the flavor was still good. We had the Crunchy Lamb Chorizo Tacos which has a little, but not too much kick and the Chicken Shawarma Burrito. The portions were good sized and as it turned out more food than we needed. The menu had other items we would like to try in the future. Pricing is what one would expect in these days of inflation. Overall we enjoyed ourselves.

I met a couple of friends here. Beirut Tacos is a fusion of Mexican food a Middle Eastern. I was excited about fusion tacos, but saw another patron's order. They are real small. I ended up with the non-alcoholic Frozen Jalleb drink. It was on the small size, but I loved it. Frozen fig with rose water and wanted to drink more. I ordered Sumac Chicken flautas. They were small and I could've eaten 6. They had pull chicken with onions in a small hard shell. Drizzled on top was sumac and creama. I had 3. Again they were quite small. At the Mexican restaurant, for 11$, I'd have a meal. They were delicious but the highlight was the frozen jalleb. Parking is a trail in hell. I think they validate from the parking space nearby. Don't get me started how they built apartments and took away parking. The restaurant has a comfortable look and a friendly staff. The menu has a few more items I'd explore.

Labneh Esquites

Service was good and food was delicious. Definitely need to go back for brunch. Definitely recommend this Lebanese fusion restaurant.

Labneh esquites

We stopped here early on a Thursday evening. We easily found seats and I was immediately elated simply based on the wonderful smells coming from the kitchen. It was pretty early, but there were a few diverse patrons already eating and more people started to fill in for both takeout and dining in as we sat. Our server was very prompt and helpful. I was overwhelmed at the variety of vegetarian items (IYKYK how hard it can be sometimes for us). I started with an old fashioned to drink and we ordered the labneh esquites for an app. Since this is Mexican and Lebanese fusion, I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but the esquites were just what I desired. Think Mexican elotes paired with smoked labneh and Aleppo pepper. It came paired with a generous quantity of fresh tortilla chips. The old fashioned wasn't anything spectacular, but decent nonetheless. For my entree, I got the ma'ali veg burrito. It was a rather large burrito filled with falafel, eggplant, cauliflower, lime-cilantro slaw, tahini and labneh creama. My wife got the chicken shawarma burrito. I inhaled half of the burrito and piled on even more of the delicious crema. TBH the crema is one of the best things about this place! There was plenty of food, but we had to leave room for desert. I was not prepared for how yummy the saffron cardamom tres leches cake would be! It was so perfectly moist (I hate that word--but it's certainly the only way to describe this)! I'm not even a sweets person either. There was plenty left to take home, so come with an appetite or come with friends to share around the table. There are so many more items I would love to try here. Our service was good and I'm so glad this place is filling the once empty void on this corner of Bell. I even convinced my coworker to order this at work the next night and he absolutely loved it!

I love chicken shawarma, and these tacos were unique and tasty. I love cucumber pickles especially, not a huge fan of the pink pickles. I'm not sure if they were beets or onions, but they were pretty easy to take off. The sauce on there was also really good. The artwork on the walls and the general vibe were really nice too. It was a super cute spot, and I would like to come back sometime. Our server and every staff member we interacted with was very nice too.

Watermelon Salad
Sachia P.

Delicious food! Chicken Shawarma tacos were my favorite! The watermelon salad has a delicious fusion of flavors. Don't pass up dessert as the Tres Leches cake is divine. Great experience and the service staff is so helpful with narrowing down choices. The restaurant and is super clean. Views of the kitchen while you eat.

This place is pretty cool. Love the setup and chill vibes created here. The service, food, and drinks are amazing. Definitely looking to come back and try other menu items.

Tres leches dessert with cardamom
Chalanna B.

A lovely place to land on a hot summer afternoon a few weeks ago, we arrived while they were shorthanded and yet they handled it so graciously. The menu has a lot of fun options and we sampled quite a bit. Guac was yum! Fish tacos were gone before I could even think about taking a photo. Tres leches cake was an awesome fusion with cardamom.

This hidden gem that opened up off 39th street is easily one of my favorite new spots of 2026. I'm not kidding when I say the hummus was the best hummus I've ever had. You must try it! Along with the freshest watermelon salad. The space is so cute and open, the staff went above and beyond. I can't recommend this spot enough

Carne asada taco
Sabrina S.

I finally made it to Beirut taco which took over and revamped the inside of the old Bronx pizza on 39th. The inside is colorful and lively and offers a great sit down casual vibe for middle eastern and Hispanic flavors. This restaurant is truly unique because it is Something Kansas City hasn't done before by fusing the two flavors. Our waitress was quick to get us seated and offer us drinks. To start we shared the guacamole and labneh which were both amazing. I got the carne asada tacos as my meal and enjoyed the green sauce that was offered on the table to pair with it. This is a great spot to have right before the World Cup!

Flautas
Lisa W.

We celebrated a birthday at Beirut Taco and it was delicious! The inside is bright and sunny and fresh and service was quick and good! The top shelf margarita was small but mighty! We tried a variety of dishes and all were amazing. We especially loved the carne asada tacos (meet was so juicy and tender), the fusion hummus, the guacamole, the shrimp plate (burrito on a plate) and the lamb burritos. All were fresh and such a great blend if you like Mexican and Lebanese food. We will definitely return. The bar would be a great spot for a drink and quick bite!! The only downside is parking is a bit of a chore but they had a QR code for guest parking so there might be a lot nearby that we weren't aware of.

Travis T.

Although the restaurant was well-decorated inside since it felt cozy and well-lit, the food was a bit overpriced since the portions are small for what I got especially the lamb hawawe burrito. Despite that, the waiter was friendly and I enjoyed the labneh salsa macha and the burrito. The salsa that was provided was yummy too. However, it appeared that the pita was pre-packaged beforehand and was not fresh out of the oven unlike many other places which sucks. Although it's a nice addition to the KC dining scene, I wish the pita came out warm before serving and it's worth trying once if you like both Mexican and Lebanese food.

I think I broke a personal record for consuming $12 in food in less than two minutes...and I was pacing myself! The two Lamb Chorizo Gyro tacos with pineapple salsa were unique and delicious but with being on miniature street taco corn tortillas and a disappointing amount of toppings; I can't find a reason that I would ever spend $6 a piece on these again. For about $15 across the street, I could get 3 tacos with premium fresh toppings that are twice as large and 3 times the amount of toppings. I'm a big fan of blending culture and cuisine but I don't like being played for a sucker. I mentioned this to my waiter and he agreed they were pretty small and said that I should have ordered a burrito... now ya tell me! I was hoping to incorporate Beirut Taco into my annual Taco Crawl later this month that I host for friends and coworkers but I'll end up staying with the KCK taquerias that I know and love so well.

Twilight zone ah restaurant…read more The summer evening's gentle humidity greeted me as I woke up from a strange dream. I recall a long room. Tables set. A menu hanging by a thread, the crease counting on one hand how many openings it has left. What is that desolate counter doing there? And those Wayfair basket shelves? Sure, I'll get the Greek Platter. A tasty entree no doubt but an unholy matrimony: the saddest pita bread you'll meet. At no fault to Kinzi, cyclospora weighed heavy on me this meal. Just thought you should know. Soon I'm in the hallway. Washing your hands is righteous, right? Where am I? Laboratory light seems to come from nowhere. Dove white dry paint on the floor and the door. And the handle. Get me out of here. As I descend the steps of purgatory, a siren calls: "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" Motion detectors. But where? And what are we protecting? The patrons from themselves? I'm back, but not for long. This entire time I endured the music. The flat screen does no justice to these poor bare bellied women, forced to dance for eternity, only punctuated by YouTube ads. Then, suddenly, there's an incessant beeping. For a few minutes it won't go away. Then, "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" followed by the cutely sinister chimes. Oh, it's the ice box. He rips something out of the bottom and the beeps dissipate. The kind man approaches. "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" What? Oh! The plates, yes, and the check, yes. "Save Ferris," his shirt reads. Is that who we're guarding? As he walks back, "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" *jingle lingle ling* Time to go. The motion detector once again clocks me as I exit. Everyone should dare to dream. For now, I must wake up.

With a nice outdoor patio right off a streetcar stop and a fun and fancy indoor, I always have so much fun here for dinner and drinks. I have been here for casual dinners, dates, anniversaries, and everything in between and have loved it every time! Everyone is always so kind and helpful, recommending their favorite plates and how much food should be enough for your party. They rotate out some of their plates periodically, keeping the menu fresh and new, while also keeping the classics that I love. My absolute favorite dish that I get every time is the grilled ricotta and bread as an appetizer. The ricotta is perfectly light and the bread is charred to perfection, I highly recommend it. Some other dishes we love (some not pictured): the cucumber salad, raw oysters, sautéed mushrooms. You really cannot go wrong I dream of going back to KC to order Extra Virgin again.

We didn't have reservations and were dressed casually. The hostess was friendly and welcoming, and we were seated in what was referred to as the "other dining room," down a dark hallway into a musty, warm, and humid space. Service was prompt and courteous, but the food was very disappointing. We were served a cucumber salad that oddly tasted like peanuts, followed by six completely flavorless meatballs--no seasoning at all, not even salt. The prices might be reasonable if the quality matched expectations, but it didn't. The contrast between the main dining room and the "other room" also felt stark and uncomfortable, as if it were a second-tier seating area. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant based on this experience.

If you're visiting Kansas City, make time for Aladdin Cafe…read more The owner and chef is one of the kindest people you'll meet, and that care comes through in every detail. You feel welcomed the second you walk in, and somehow that warmth makes its way into the food too. I've tried just about every Mediterranean spot in Kansas City, and this one stands out every single time. It tastes the most authentic and the least commercial by far. Everything feels fresh, intentional, and made with care. Nothing tastes rushed or mass produced. There's real love in the food here, and you can taste it. Their dolmas especially take me right back to my grandmother's kitchen. That kind of food memory is hard to put into words, but if you know, you know. Comforting, fresh, flavorful, and made in a way that feels deeply rooted and genuine. With the World Cup approaching and so many people coming through Kansas City, visitors need to know about places like this. These are the local spots worth seeking out. The kind you leave talking about afterward and craving again the next day. And if they have the mint lemonade, order it. The rose lemonade is always incredible too. If you can get both, mix them and thank me later. A true Kansas City gem. You won't regret stopping here.
