Restaurant Joseph Sin El Fil Beirut

This restaurant is famous for a prize they won a decade back for the best shawarma in the world. It is always crowded and full. We went there to try their shawarma. We ordered chicken and meat. The sandwich itself is big and fully loaded. The taste is good but i dont think they will win a prize anytime soon. Staff are always in a rush. The prices are high for a shawarma. They have a valet parking service which is a good thing.

One of my favorite places to have a tasty shawarma sandwich. Tried both chicken and meat. Good and generous. They have other than shawarma but this place is Mainly known for shawarma. Fair prices and Friendly owner and staff. You can go for a takeaway, a quick snack at their restaurant or order delivery. Sa7ten...

It’s your traditional lebanese street food place. Clean, delicious and generous. I was shocked at the quantity of chicken I found inside my sandwich… and it was super!

I visited Joseph today to grab a shawarma, which is undoubtedly the best in town. However, I was extremely disappointed with the service, especially from the cashier. Despite being a regular customer who orders every week, I felt disrespected. He attempted to serve someone who arrived after me and, when it was finally my turn, he rudely informed me that they wouldn’t accept dollars, seemingly just to frustrate me. My friend went back and he paid normally with dollars. While the food remains excellent, the service is far below expectations. It’s frustrating to see such behavior in a place known for its quality food. There’s so much potential, but experiences like this make it hard to remain a loyal customer. They are not generous with the quantity of meat.

Restaurant Joseph is one of those places that we found online and decided to come and check out. First, we do pass by here on every visit to Lebanon and I would have rated them a 5 star when we first ate here, but on the last two visits which were recent on this trip, I personally wasn’t too impressed with the chicken shawarma. I definitely do recommend their meat shawarma over their chicken shawarma. Thx!
