Perched high on a cliff that overlooks the beautiful city of Beirut and its Mediterranean coast lays Al Sakhra, a family-owned restaurant. Al Sakhra is a true testament to Lebanese culinary heritage and spirit, serving Lebanese food for 80 years. Founded in 1936, Al Sakhra is more than local cuisine with a breathtaking view. Walking through the beautiful arched stone, the smell of Mezze, Mashawi and freshly baked bread whiffs through the air with Fayrouz softly playing in the background. Its charm almost fools you into thinking you’ve stepped back in time, emitting a sense of nostalgia for regulars and newcomers alike who escape into the mountains for a culinary retreat.
