Amavi Italian Restaurant Beirut

First time at Amavi tonight and I really enjoyed it! The food was amazing. Both the appetizers and main dishes were delicious. The service was fast, attentive, and friendly. I also loved the ambiance because it is clean, the food arrived quickly, and I really appreciated that the place didn't smell like cigarettes. The prices are fair and right in the middle. However, we had two small issues. First, the spicy oil tasted exactly like Makdous oil. All eight of us at the table agreed on this. We ended up sending it back for chili flakes and olive oil instead. Please fix the spicy oil recipe Amavi! Second, the tables are quite small, making it a bit tight for a group of eight to sit comfortably. Other than that, we had a fun experience and I would definitely come back!

Amavi Beirut is truly a gem in Achrafieh. From the moment you arrive, the staff and manager make you feel completely at home, guiding you through the menu with great care and clear explanations. The food was exceptional. The tiramisu was simply fantastic and delicious, one of the best I’ve had. The ravioli al funghi was rich and perfectly balanced, and the pizza quattro formaggi was cooked al dente, just the way it should be. Even the cappuccino was customized with an authentic Italian touch, an appreciated detail that shows true attention to quality. The atmosphere deserves 5 stars: warm, welcoming, and enjoyable. The interior design is tasteful and minimal, just what’s needed to feel comfortable without being overwhelming. Seating is very comfortable, and the view is lovely, whether you’re seated inside or in the internal food court/piazza under the stunning skylight steel structure. Special mention to the superb WC design and the fact that the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, which is always a plus. Big thanks to the entire Amavi team for such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be coming back very soon....

Absolutely loved it. Exceptional food and outstanding service from start to finish. The ambiance is beautiful and truly gives an authentic Italian feel. One of the best dining experiences in Beirut.
