Amazing spot. Good food, service, and vibes! We went for date night and loved it. Highly recommend if you're in SoFlo!

INCREDIBLE food, there's so much love and heart in this whole restaurant. The grilled watermelon halloumi was absolutely delicious. Victoria was amazing and so kind to us. Such a relaxing experience and would recommend anyone. Ahmed made us feel so welcome--will definitely be back soon! read more

Amazing middle Eastern food, we loved it so much that we went two days in a row. The food was so fresh, delicious, and tasted like home. The staff were so welcoming and very friendly. The shish barak and Mlukhiah were very garlicky for us as, but other than that everything was absolutely delicious. The Fatah was my very favorite. The decor on the walls and the Arabic music made out experience way better. Highly recommend! read more

Went with a bunch of friends who had also never been there before so we got an assortment of items as recommended by the server and all shared. Everything hit with us and we had a great experience. We sat outside which was super nice even on a hot Miami day. Definitely a fun place to go to if you want something new, there are not a lot of Lebanese options in soflo. read more

Fantastic dinner! Such cute vibe there with incredible service! The kind of service where you trust the waiter to pick what ever is great on the menu for food and wine and his selections are out of this world (and not the most expensive items). Wonderful food and wine! read more

Lira is a cute restaurant tucked in a corner at the edge of Wynwood. My husband and I came in and were able to make happy hour. They have several small plates and drinks available for the happy hour menu. We loved the dips! The hummus, cilantro hummus, and labneh were delicious! The Kibbeh was amazing. The wine was great. The service was excellent. We had a great experience from start to finish! read more

WOW, absolutely spectacular, I cannot wait to come back. We tried this restaurant on a whim. Four of us shared the muhammara, shrimp provençal, beef sambousek, molokhia, chicken skewer and batatas. The flavors were intense, tangy and so delicious. Service was fantastic. The indoor dining room is modest but charming; the patio has plenty of tables. I suggest making a reservation if you want to sit inside. I'm very inexperienced with Lebanese food but I left the experience a big fan! read more

Street parking in wynnwood which can be a busy place, it's not in the main part so parking was accessible tonight. Sat in their nice outdoor courtyard that's laid back and not too packed. It's enclosed so feels safe. The mezzes were amazing. My favorites being the fattousch salad and muhammara. The hummus, falafel, and roasted potatoes were very tasty too. I tried some of the chicken kebobs which were ok. I'd maybe try the shawarma next time or honestly just stick with the mezzes, which were my favorites of the whole dinner. Service was friendly. Id recommend and return. read more

Had an incredible lunch at Lira today! The food, the hospitality, the entire experience... PERFECTION. We started with the mint lemonade, which was absolutely divine- bright, refreshing, and the perfect start. Then we chose a bunch of apps: The FATTOUSH was honestly the best I've ever had anywhere (aside from my boyfriend's homemade salad) . The LIRA LABNEH was another standout: mixed with Lebanese olives, walnuts, garlic, and parsley. Creamy, tangy, and super addictive! We also had the WARAK ENAB (stuffed grape leaves), the MUHAMMARA, and the GRILLED HALLOUMI & WATERMELON, and BATATA HARRA (similar to the Spanish "Patatas Bravas") and they were ALL spectacular and full of flavor. Just when we thought we couldn't eat another bite, they brought out a beautiful platter of CHICKEN SHAWARMA and CHICKEN TAWOUK, both outstanding. Even the FRIES were amazing! Finished with the trio of VEGAN GELATO (date, pistachio, and dark chocolate) and every flavor was perfect. Ahmed's hospitality was truly next level. This is Arab hospitality at its finest: genuine, generous, and unforgettable. He's warm, gracious, full of amazing stories, and sets such a beautiful tone for the restaurant. Our waitress Candela was lovely, too: attentive, friendly, and so sweet. Honestly, everyone we interacted with there was great. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful, and the music is incredible... the kind of vibe that makes you want to stay all afternoon. I can't say enough about Lira. I left happy, very (very) full, and so grateful for places like this. Already planning my return! read more

This lovely spot in Wynwood is a rare gem. A place where you can score a divine meal without draining your wallet. I tried the beef shwarma, which was a juicy delight. The fries it came with were crispy perfection. The walls of mismatched prints and Mediterranean colors add to the places charm. The service was impeccable. I am already dreaming of my next visit. read more

The food and service was great. I think the portions are a bit small for the price but overall very delicious food. I think the middle eastern decor and music added the perfect touch to the experience. My favorite was the decorative pillows with Arabic writing on them along with some old school music I recognized. Great place for a date night or family dinner. read more

This was my first time having Lebanese food! The service was great! They did have someone who didn't speak English that came to our table a few times (Spanish only) so it was difficult communicating with him. The waitress explained many of the dishes to us so we could make our selection. She was kind and attentive to us. I had beef dishes that were excellent. I tried the hummus -cilantro - lacking flavor, but nice and clean. Overall, I would definitely visit here again . read more

We had such a great experience at Lira Beirut Eatery! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, and genuinely welcoming. The staff made us feel welcome and checked in on us throughout our meal. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the mulekheya, beef shawarma, and finished with the love bites and kunafa for dessert. Every dish was full of flavor and tasted fresh and authentic. The beef shawarma was perfectly seasoned, the mulekheya was comforting and so well made, and the desserts were the perfect ending to the meal. read more

They say beauty can come from suffering. As a land that has seen its fortune boom and bust over millennia, Lebanon is a multi-layered, complex country, full of contradictions, historical significance, joy and beauty. Lira Beirut celebrates this through its food, decor and service. The whole vibe of the place seems extracted from a cool corner of Beirut with beautiful retro-cool artwork that is colorful, happy and sophisticated. From graphic prints, to black and white photos and architectural studies, it gives you a sense of a culture that takes the best of the middle east and cosmopolitan worlds. That sets the stage for the food served here. This is not a watered-down shawarma spot to pacify over-served revelers. It's a place to meet real foodie friends who appreciate authenticity and carefully prepared dishes in an elevated way. I haven't had a chance to go to the Middle East, but I can tell from the deft use of spices, heat and technique that their intention is to share the best from their food memory of the old country. I've gone on a few occasion and really enjoyed the fattoush salad, the labneh mtwame, the muhammara, the chicken shawarma plate and the kafta. Many of the dishes come with the crispiest, most addictive fries I've had, gorgeous savory rice and a heap of fresh, fragrant herbs. Even the wine list is pretty nice, and I've had the well priced Sauvignon Blanc and the Pouilly Fuisse. I wished the location were better for us and for them. It could use a more visible location where nice traffic goes by it. Since it's at the edge of Wynwood where it borders with the slowly gentrifying Overtown, it could take a while before its riches are recognized. I can't wait to go back for happy hour again, and I long to see the day when this becomes an awesome neighborhood hangout as they build more apartment buildings in the area that can house people who will appreciate all that Lira Beirut offers. read more

we came here for dinner and had a wonderful time! alicia helped us out and she was super friendly, attentive, and helpful. she gave us great recommendations on drinks, appetizers, and food and did not steer us wrong. there's also a sweet surprise for first timers--ask about it the first time you come here, and you definitely should come here because it's delicious! don't miss the dip trio, especially during happy hour. absolutely insanely tasty, and the beef shawarma entree was spiced perfectly. the restaurant has a cute garden outside and the inside is cozy and inviting. we recommend sitting on the benches if possible, the pillows and cushions are super comfy. if you can, ask for alicia! she was fantastic and if we lived closer then we would definitely be back regularly for all of our special occasions. read more

LIRA Beirut is like home away from home for me. From the art on the wall to the music playing decor, Flowers and Service you truly feel like you aren't in Lebanon. I've been here a few times and at each time I love it more and more most recently I tried their fattush, their fatteh, and of course some of their samplers like the hummus, Muhammara, kibbe and the chicken shawarma and it was all very authentic and delish. You cannot go wrong here honestly. Oh, and my favorite part is they have nostalgic lemonade with mint IYKYK and their Lebanese wine which makes me so happy to find in a place like this. If you haven't tried LIRA yet consider this your sign! read more

Very tasty beautifully presented Lebanese food! Went with a few friends and got the family sharing menu (not sure if it's still available), which has sharing portions of a bunch of their dips, appetizers/small plates, and a tray of grilled meats. Once we started they just kept bringing out plates one by one. The dips were excellent, the beet hummus was creamy and light pairing perfectly with the pita, the eggplant dip was a bit smoky and savory, and the original hummus was delicious. The warak enab (stuffed grape leaves) were a bit more acidic than I expected but still very well put together. The batata harra were crispy outside and a bit fluffy inside, smashed to maximize the crisp and with a sweet savory slightly spicy sauce that really elevated it although a bit salty. One of my favorites was the fried halloumi, little bites of fried salty cheesy halloumi goodness complemented perfectly by a sweet honey balsamic sauce. By the time the meat came out we were already pretty full, but persevered. The chicken, beef, and kofta (ground meat) kebabs were all well seasoned with a nice char pairing well with the rice and onion salad, although the portion of meat between the four of us could have been a bit more generous. All in all, the food at Lira is fresh, tasty, and well presented topped off with good service and a small but inviting atmosphere. The price point for the amount of food and meat wasn't super impressive, but otherwise the food was great and I would definitely come back to try some of their other dishes! read more

Best Mediterranean restaurant in Miami!!! We got the Lira mixed combo, and the kafta skewer and lamb chops were amazing -- they just melt in your mouth. The appetizers were delicious, and I highly recommend the cilantro hummus and muhammara. Also, the best ice cream I've had! The ambiance is so relaxing.

Business dinner while in town - sat on the cute patio. Our server, she was amazing, we were very new to the cuisine so she explained everything very well, even the wines. Only complaint was the timing of some of the dishes...we had to remind them of certain things ordered, etc.....but everything we ordered was yummy and great. Even enjoyed the sounds of the city.....overall was a good dinner. After went to a rooftop bar that was a very short walk from Lira for a night cap....thumping DJ. read more

Outstanding food in a truly magical setting. Every dish was beautifully prepared and bursting with authentic Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavors. The outdoor dining space is intimate and enchanting -- the trees create a naturally enclosed oasis that feels private and serene. This is a little hidden gem we're fortunate to have right here in Wynwood, offering a transportive dining experience that feels worlds away while being right in the heart of the neighborhood. read more

Great Sunday brunch place if you're in Miami! Tried this place on a Sunday afternoon upon recommendation from a friend in town as we were craving middle eastern food. Sure hit the spot! Outside seats for Sunday brunch also included live music. Super friendly & accommodating staff & service. Food was flavorful & fresh. We tried the trio hummus as appetizers. Lamb chops, Shakshouka , Shawarma...all good! The mint lemonade was super refreshing . We even took it to go. The only negative was the location and street parking. read more

Really really enjoyed my meal here! I came for miami spice and it's one of the best Miami spices I've been to in terms of amount of food and quality. The setting is lovely. I'd recommend sitting outside. I went on a Tuesday and I think they weren't expecting a huge office party so I will say the service was extremely slow. But the food was wonderful! Would recommend getting a mix of dips -- muhammara, labneh, hummus, with great pita. Fattoush the octopus was good but a small portion. And the beef shawarma was delicious -- cinnamony and a huge portion. For dessert they have baklava and an assortment of dairy free ice creams (pistachio, date, etc) read more

Great , authentic Lebanese food!! Restaurant vibe is awesome!! Food was some of the best Lebanese I have ever had!!

Great restaurant and amazing food. The chicken wraps are my personal recommendation for tall

The most authentic Lebanese cuisine i had. The food, the decor, the atmosphere, it was absolutely beautiful. Lira is the currency in Lebanon so when i saw this place, i knew i had to test it's authenticity. There is indoor and outdoor seating options. Inside, the walls are filled with cultural Lebanese photos and frames and decorations. Outside, the seating has pillows and benches that resemble the old cultural Lebanese theme. The music was lebanese but the ancient soft kind that makes you feel like you're in Lebanon. I loved it. The staff was very friendly and super knowledgable about the menu. They helped us with our order and were very patient considering they had plenty of delicious options to choose from. Everything we ordered tasted homemade and delicious, and it was very authentic that some i've never had before! I learned a lot about Lebanon and the dishes during my dinner. The food was great, the decor was beautiful and it really felt like an experience, not just a meal. read more

One of my favorites in Miami. The appetizers here are out of this world. The eggplant dish with fried pita chips and lamb is incredible. We came here with a reservation on a day it was pouring rain. The restaurant was great and called us in advance to confirm our attendance. They worked hard to accommodate not-ideal conditions. We weren't obsessed with the mains but I think we need to try some other options next time. Will come back to give it another go! read more
