Unbelievable. So good. I'm coming back here when I'm in Paris next! Everything about their food and customer service was perfect.

The PERFECT drunk meal in Paris. Definitely recommend, the owner is personable and the cook got us our food within 5 minutes. On a narrow street where you can sit on the curb or take your food to go. 10/10. read more

Chez le Libanais - Lebanese Near Me - Paris, 75

Tiny place serving up Shawarma. The service was great. I asked for extra hot. They were very surprised to say the least. Parisians are not known for anything spicier than cream. They loaded me up not sure if I could take it. It was excellent. The food is excellent. The location is a busy fun street. The restaurant is tight, cramped, and the eating area is kind of dirty. Let's just say when their busy the four seats inside are rarely cleaned. It's the Latin Quarter. You're meant to get the food and go strolling. But, I was tired. That said, I would go back. There are two great Shawarma shops in this street. You can't go wrong with either of them. read more

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. read more

Chez le Libanais - Lebanese Near Me - Paris, 75

Tiny place with staff that aren't especially helpful. The food isn't fresh or what I expected. It's not a typical shawarma, it's more like mince chicken and cut steak for beef. I won't be going back and don't recommend it. read more

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

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. read more

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!! read more

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! read more

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. read more

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

Bomb. Can't wait to get back to to try the other half of the menu! I would fly to Paris to eat here. Not kidding the food, the staff the area all make my heart smile! It's hard to explain why this place has me so completely (I'm not one to gush check my other reviews) maybe in a past life? Hats off the Jon and Gwen for making me feel like a long lost friend. read more

When we were in Paris this past summer, I knew I wanted to try some cheap, whole in the wall type places. We searched Yelp and found Chez Le Libanais. I happen to love Lebanese food, especially schwarmas, so I knew we had to try this spot out. I have also been on the search for a schwarma that tastes like one I had when I was living in Nigeria as a kid... I was very hopeful that Chez Le Libanais would be a winner. My husband and I both ordered the schwarma and some baklava. We lucked out and got a seat inside (not much seating available). It took little while for our food to come out. Worth the wait!! The schwarma was sooooo good. The meat was seasoned perfectly. The sauce was on point. I loved every bite! This schwarma wasn't as good as the one from my childhood, but it was super close. Definitely closer than any schwarma I've had in the US. The baklava was also pretty tasty. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this quick and inexpensive meal. We even thought about coming back to get another meal but then decided we really needed to try other places... I kind of wish we had gone back a second time. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Paris! read more

Chez le Libanais - Schwarma - Lebanese Near Me - Paris, 75

Went at 3pm Saturday after visiting the louvre. This place is great. They don't close between lunch and dinner which is convenient. Even if you are skeptical about Lebanese food. It was very clean inside, friendly waiter, no wait and comfortable seating. Prices are great. 36 euros for everything including a glass of wine and desert. They have English menu. Had the tabule and the skewers sampler (with hummus and cuscus). Very good. The lamb skewer my favorite. read more

If you want a quick bite to eat and roam around the neighborhood, which we did, this is the place to be. The two cooks were very friendly and spoke English. The food was delicious and tasty. We didn't wait very long to get our order. The price was reasonable. We'll definitely eat there again. Two thumbs up. read more

This was my first taste of Lebanese cuisine and it'll be very hard to top! For this particular wrap, they use ground lamb to fill it up alongside seasoning, sauce, and veggies. It's a small shop primarily for takeaway. Watch the video to see them chef it up with some lively music playing as well! OH-mazingness: 8.9/10 OH-ffordability: 9.5/10 (~€6) read more

Chez le Libanais is kind of out of the way of common tourist paths. I stopped by hoping I chanced upon a hidden gem. The service was just about ok, and the food was not all the bad. BUT, I expect far more from middle eastern restaurants given the much wider and more delicious flavor profile. The restaurant also forces you to order at least two starters per head. I don't understand why this would be a mandate and we ended up leaving uneaten food. This is still a good food option, but be hungry enough to eat a lot. read more

Coming from NY we underestimated how hard it is to get a dinner reservation last minute in Paris - so much harder than NY. It was a rainy cold night - we were tired from being turned down by all restaurants in the area for inside seating, that's when we chanced upon Chez Le Libanais. I got the falafel roll and my friend got the chicken shawarma roll. Both were delicious and super filling - this was just what we needed on that chilly night! I'd love to come back! read more

Delicious Lebanese halal food!! It reminds me of homemade food. Hummus, baba ghanooj, fried Kibab, fattoush, tabbouli, and grilled entrees of chicken tawook and kafta! All very delicious! read more

If cheap eats is your thing, Chez le Libanais is the perfect spot! Friendly staff and they speak English. Everything is made to order, even the wrap itself. It is cooked right in front of you on their rounded grill top. Chicken Wrap - 6 euro - Freshly made wrap, similar to a tortilla, filled with chicken, cheese, and lettuce. Nicely seasoned with middle eastern flavors. Chocolate Banana Crepe - 6 euro - Fresh made crepe stuffed with melty chocolate and fresh banana slices. Great snack if you are on the go during your Paris excursions. read more

This is definitely one of the BEST things I've eaten in Paris. The smell of this place was amazing. There are menus in multiple languages so we didn't have trouble ordering. I had the Arayes wrap (I think that was the name). It was sooooo good!!! The wrap was crispy and the meat was extremely flavorful. There was also a sauce but I have no idea what it is. I just know it really complimented the wrap. I shared this with my boyfriend (I wish I had my own!!!) No worries. We came back later before leaving Paris to get our own. We took our wrap and ate it by the river. It was such a great meal! It was also inexpensive and I liked that because I was spending way too much money on food in Paris. read more

Went to St Germaine and found this place where apparently you can line up and order or call and order. Cheap place to get Lebanese burritos, the worker speak french and English so you'll be fine. They also have a place to sit but you can just order to go, it's like a hole in the wall place, the sit down restaurant is across from it. It's pretty busy place and it took me 30 minutes for one order, the taste was good enough and pretty big size, they have a really good baklava tho. I would order dessert from this place for sure. It's cheap but pretty long wait. read more

WOW this turned out to be one of the gastro highlights of our trip. I took my mom here and later my uncle and his spouse joined us.

We wanted to love it but just couldn't come close. We ordered the turkey wrap as well as the roasted eggplant salad. The things we didn't like were: A) Food safety...the cashier touched money and then the food...without washing his hands. B) Quality of ingredients. The turkey slices looked foam like - similar to bologna. It also didn't taste fresh. C) 5 Euros for the eggplant salad is such a joke. You don't get much, and then it is quite possibly the biggest disappointment of a week in Paris. Check out the picture - it's just grey mush. read more

Will preface this review by saying I grew up eating shawarmas and Lebanese food so I don't expect to like many I try. However this place was very good and affordable. I had taken my parents to a few places in Paris and we hadn't liked many of the things we got (probably being picky eaters) however here we enjoyed the falafel, beef shawarma, and labne wraps here. The place is small inside but perfect for a ten to fifteen minute quick pitstop before enjoying the rest of Paris. read more

I'm torn on this review. When I ordered the dish and ate it, I loved it. Lots of unique medeterrian flavors. Service was fine; a little standoff-ish but whatever. It's a small place and one recent night it was pretty crowded. Good portion too. But what I realized I was tasting was just tons of garlic. Must've been buckets and my stomach didn't really agree with the meal later that evening. Sick? No. But rather an intolerance to that much garlic. So, know your system. If you love Garlic, this place is going to suit your bill. Otherwise, it's the kind of meal that stays with you and stays with you, until you just can't take it any longer. read more

If you're the kind of person who needs to save money on food after splurging 90 Euros (gah!!) in a single visit to a world famous patisserie - eat here. If your blood has only sugar coursing through it and you need savory food to re-align your taste buds - eat here. If you've spent the last couple of hours imbibing and need a sense of balance - eat here. If you've traveled far to eat at the famous kosher restaurant, L'As Du Fallafel, and find them closed, don't sweat or swear - eat here (these guys are open 7 days a week from 11 am to 11 pm) If you like standing in a long, slow moving line behind couples aggressively making out (hey, it's Paree..) - eat here. If you're searching for the Parisian equivalent of the Halal guys from NYC - don't eat here... Seriously don't. These guys may not be as efficient as The Halal Guys, but their food is simply in a different league altogether. Completely on top of their game. They don't simply have one kind of white sauce, and the Toum (garlic sauce) is wonderful. They also have 32 sandwich options, including 12 for vegetarians). I ate the Chich Taouk the first time here with L'Arayess... To make sure it wasn't a one-off euphoria, I ate here the next evening as well, this time trying the Beef Shawarma instead. Again, the meat was soft, tender and juicy - and the spice mix unique. FYI: The spice mix (proprietary) in the Chich Taouk is not crack. I hate the use of the word in food reviews, and so I'm not going to use it here. Definitely not :) The glowing Yelp reviews show that they have been discovered. But, not to the extent that they will be known in coming years. Legendary. These guys are going to be legendary with their fame spread far and wide for all visitors (and locals) to Paris. I'm calling it before anyone else does. Oh, and if you're the special kind of genius who complains that he'd rather have made use of the limited days in Paris to eat at Joel Robuchon's restaurant instead of the € 5-6 Manakeesh you find here - don't eat here. read more

Super tasty and authentic food here. 5 star noms. You order inside, although the line frequently stretches out into the street. He menu is large but ask for help if you need it like I did. Once you order you can watch outside as the cooks quickly and masterfully prepare your dish. Warning: your mouth will start watering. The food here is amazing and one of my favorite meals while in Paris. Highly recommend!! read more

I refuse to spend all my money at tourist traps and end up feeling ripped off. I did some research on cheap local eateries and this one was one of the top faves I bookmarked. After passing by the streets filled with tons of creperies, brasseries, cafes...etc. I was afraid this place would end up being just like the rest of them. But after going through mazes of alley ways and streets, we finally found this place. It's a tiny hole in the all vendor with very little seating inside (about 8 bar seating). I ordered the falafel wrap while the beau ordered the shwarma meat wrap. He originally wanted the kafta wrap but they didn't have any at the time. Both our wraps together came out to €10,90! You can't beat that at a cafe anywhere in Paris! The food was absolutely delicious and filling! They don't use the usual thick pita bread like we do in the states which is PERFECT for me because I'm not a huge bread fan. Instead they make them nice and thin, almost like a crispy crepe. The man who helped us spoke English and was extremely friendly and helpful. I almost don't want to review it to keep this a hidden secret but I must share it with my fellow yelpers! read more

Such amazing Lebanese food! Don't miss this little place, it's one of those "hole in the wall" walk up food places, but it is great!! I had the shawarma meat sandwich, which was sooooo good.

Worst falafel ever. Stood in a queue to find out there were not serving meals any more. So I got 5 pieces of falafel and Turkish salad. The salad was just parsley, tomato, lemon and salt- I call this pico (Mexican food). The quantity was also very very less read more

If there's a line outside a place, you know it's got to be good, especially when that place shares a street with several other restaurants. As others have mentioned, it's a cheap price - I paid a little over 10 euros for a falafel wrap and a shawarma wrap. They're not gigantic, as I ate both for dinner, but you could be ok with just one. The wraps are made with a thin crispy pita, as opposed to the fluffy doughy kind I'm used to in the States. The falafel could be crunchier, but I was pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of fresh basil in the wrap. It was strong, almost too strong, but I liked what it added. The shawarma wrap didn't have any, but the meat had a good spice and flavor to it. Chez le Libanais hits the rare cheap/good/open late trifecta for Paris. Worth a stop if you're nearby and just want a quick bite to eat. read more

This is one of those places where you bring some friends for the first time and they're blown away by how good it is and your food credibility goes up by like a million. The chicken shawarma wrap, spicy, is absolutely incredible. It's light, flavorful and clean. It's the perfect size to eat on the go and it fills you up without making you overly stuffed. The staff is efficient and friendly. Do yourself a favor and come here, then come back again. read more
