Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled in the heart of Paris’s vibrant 18th arrondissement, Diwan Beirut offers an authentic Lebanese culinary experience that effortlessly transports diners to the rich flavors and warm spirit of Beirut. Located at 60 Rue Duhesme, this charming restaurant is more than just a place to eat — it’s a haven of conviviality and calm, as echoed by satisfied guests who appreciate both the atmosphere and the food.

The menu at Diwan Beirut shines with the freshness and complexity typical of Lebanese cuisine. Diners can indulge in exquisite classics such as delicately stuffed feuilles de vigne (grape leaves), praised as “exquisite” by Julien “Colard” Chamoun, as well as a vibrant array of dips, salads, and marinated olives that offer a symphony of textures and flavors. Whether you’re savoring a mezze platter or enjoying a carefully crafted sandwich from their midday special, each bite bursts with brightness and authenticity.

One of the standout features of Diwan Beirut is its genuinely warm and attentive service. Ambre blnc shares how the staff’s kindness and attentiveness elevate the dining experience, creating a welcoming environment that feels personal and refined. The restaurant’s midday formula, offering a sandwich, a beverage, and two savory bites for just €10, is not only a great value but also a testament to their desire to make exquisite Lebanese cuisine accessible to all.

Beyond the food itself, the restaurant’s peaceful ambiance invites diners to unwind and savor each moment. X.O. X. O highlights the calm and friendly vibe, while Rosalyn Coates remarks on the impeccable hospitality, especially praising Emil’s service as unparalleled.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick takeaway bursting with authentic tastes, as Seth Markow recommends, or settling down for a leisurely meal surrounded by friendly faces, Diwan Beirut promises a genuine taste of Lebanon right in Paris. It’s a place where every dish tells a story, every ingredient sings with freshness, and every visit feels like coming home.

Excellent traiteur libanais. Les employés sont très accueillants et serviables. Et le plus important : la nourriture est délicieuse (mon favori : les feuilles de vigne qui sont exquises) Je recommande à 100% :)

J’ai été enchanté par mon expérience au restaurant Diwan Beirut. Le personnel est incroyablement gentil et attentif, offrant un service chaleureux qui rend le repas d’autant plus agréable. Ce qui m’a particulièrement plu, c’est la proximité du responsable avec les clients. Leur formule midi, à seulement 10€, comprenant un sandwich au choix, une boisson, et deux bouchées salées, est un véritable délice et représente un excellent rapport qualité-prix. De plus, leur service traiteur est vraiment appréciable, offrant un large éventail de choix pour des événements spéciaux ou non. Dans l’ensemble, le restaurant offre une expérience culinaire de haute qualité à un prix tout à fait raisonnable.

Yummy!! Our new favourite place for Lebanese! The bread is so fresh, the toum is tasty, the labneh is good. The soujouk sandwiches were WOW - perfect!!! One hour after eating and we feel for more, perhaps we will return tomorrow for more :) thank you for the friendly service and quality food!

Je prends toujours à emporter. De très très bons produits avec du goût et qu’on ne trouve pas chez tous les traiteurs libanais ! En revanche, les prix paraissent parfois excessifs sur certains choix. Si vous avez un budget à ne pas dépasser, faites attention car ça monte vite. L’accueil et le service n’ont pas toujours été au top. Mention spéciale au toum, absolument délicieux !

Je suis allé manger avec ma fille, jeudi 10 juillet 2025. C etait excellent ! La variété des plats, la quantité, le goût, tout y etait. De plus, les prix sont abordables. Allez y les yeux fermés. J ai prévu d y retourner tres prochainement. Cependant, je suis scandalisée par le commentaire et l image mensongère du Mezze' avarié que l on voit un peu plus bas dans les commentaires. Aucun commerçant ne pourrait vendre ça ! C est malhonnête et méchant de porter préjudice et des gens qui travaillent honnêtement. Force et courage à ce commerçant
