Em Sherif Deli Beirut

A casual concept and cozy place where the decoration is calm and relaxing. They have a small place where you can sit and eat your food. People are not really attentive, focusing on their tasks only but not on people. Anyway, standards are high and the packaging is nice. I wanted an ice cream to wait for my friend and then will eat. When I asked for Ice cream, they did not advise that I can get the Dark chocolate with olive oil although I know and they did not advise that the cardamom could be a good option with the espresso. I cannot limit my experience to the above but I left and I ate at another place. We all know the standards of Em Sherif restaurants but some glitches could affect our tiny experiences there.

If you’re looking for an authentic Lebanese sandwich experience, this spot is unbeatable. Their special Lebanese bread, combined with fresh, flavorful ingredients, makes for a truly delicious meal. The appetizers, like hummus and salads, are just as good—rich, well-balanced, and packed with taste. Some may criticize the seating or even the sandwiches, but when asked where to find a better one, no one has an answer. That speaks for itself. If you’re after the best Lebanese quick bite, this place is as good as it gets—arguably the best in town, if not the world!

Absolutely love this place! It never disappoints. The coffee is always brewed to perfection, and the desserts are simply divine. Their honey cake is a perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and the flourless chocolate cake is pure indulgence—rich, decadent, and absolutely unforgettable. Also tried their stuffed sele2 and loved them. Whether it’s a quiet afternoon treat or a quick pick-me-up, this spot nails it every time. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates amazing coffee and desserts . Cant wait to try more food

Em Sherif never disappoints with the flavors. It’s not my first time but my first time reviewing the Deli. First of all, one should know what to expect before going. It’s a deli but at the standards of Em Sherif. The place is always fully packed constantly, you might find a difficulty to find a seat. The sandwiches although the portions aren’t big but every bite is worthwhile and very flavorful. After the sandwiches we ordered a cup of IceCream, Aych El Saraya. After I took the cup to the table, i was surprised to see the manager arriving to the table with another cup; since she saw the portion that was in my cup and it didn’t meet her standards, she offered us a complimentary cup of ice cream. All in all, our experience was very rewarding.

Very interesting Lebanese sandwich/quick bite shop. I highly appreciate the quality and effort put into making and delivering the food. It's always busy there (explaining my 3 stars for the atmosphere). But for the rest (food and service), it's difficult to top such a fine Lebanese 'quick bite' shop.
