Beirut Mediterranean Restaurant & Lounge, opened in Saigon and Hanoi in 2012, offers authentic Middle Eastern food and entertainment.

Established by a native Lebanese-Canadian entrepreneur who moved to Saigon and made it her mission to introduce authentic Middle Eastern food and entertainment in Vietnam, Beirut delivers an authentic exotic experience.

Named after the Lebanese capital, the restaurant stays true to the Middle Eastern tradition of welcoming guests effusively and serving delicious food.

It is not a surprise that it has become a popular fine dining destination in both cities. It delivers on authentic food, exotic drinks and eye-catching live performances.

The Arabian inspired interior is colorful. There are marble tables and velvet sofas, hand-drawn paintings and low hanging lamps.

The secret behind Mediterranean barbecue, Beirut’s best-selling dishes, lies in the ancient recipes from the Middle East and Mediterranean which combine charcoal grilling, natural ingredients and authentic imported spices.

"The best food is cooked with the heart. At Beirut, we focus on the goal of pleasing each and every customer," said head chef Jalal.

The bestselling Beirut Mixed Grill features tasty, juicy, melt-in-the-mouth tenderness of chicken, beef, and lamb kebabs. It comes with a garlic sauce made with secret ingredients.

Then there are other traditional favorites. "In the Middle East, few foods are as popular as falafel tabbouleh salad," Jalal said. "It is a refreshing, healthy and delicious salad made with finely chopped vegetables and topped off with crispy falafel and creamy tahini sauce. Falafel tabbouleh salad is perfect for the long, hot summer."
