Tried the salmon kibe cru and capir-sake da romã : really tasty although the former is only a weekend special. The warm pita bread that accompanies the kibe is nice. It's not a cheap place so definitely use Grubster to get your booking done ! P.S. - Valet parking is available but pricey at R$ 25

French is widely spoken, across many countries in the world. But, how would I (or you?) ever figure…read moreout that this french-named restaurant is a lebanese oasis? Widespread in Brazil as arabic food, lebanese food is even tastier in this restaurant that also offers an all-you-can-eat version. A friend of mine was impressed to see how much the recipes there look like the ones he uses to have back at his home country. I'm a big fan of starters, and I could probably make my way through the meal here only with them (as I've done a couple of times), so that's my suggestion. Grab at least one puff pastry sfiha (on the warm side) and some raw kibbeh (if you're into it). If you'd prefer to take the usual step ahead, go for the kafta.

Food: homestyle cooking, wholesome ingredients, beautiful aromas, awesome taste. We ordered: Byblos mix to start, a 'sampler' with many appetizers, if not all, ranging from kibe cru (tartar), meat sfihas, escarole sfihas, lebanese salads, to mini kaftas, all very good; chicken with tahini: chicken chunks, along with potato pieces, served with tahini sauce and almonds. Service: very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable; since I don't drink pop, the waitress kindly suggested their house limeade, made with limes and lime tree leaves. Overall, great atmosphere, great food, and service.

The food is not exactly authentic but it is fast food that is meant to cater to the locals. Their specialty is the sfiha (called esfiha in Brazil), which is an open faced 4 inch flatbread that is topped with your choice of different meats and vegetables. I'd recommend trying that one. Some of the other Middle Eastern offerings include hummus, babaganoush, kibe, and pita sandwiches. Being a fast food place, they also have the standard stuff like burgers, pizza and fries as well. Habib's is not a bad choice if you're in Brazil, and looking for something a little different.
