Restaurante Hola Beirut

I was surprised by the food and it has gluten-free options.

Well, we found this place by chance while looking for a restaurant with gluten-free and vegan options. Everything we ordered was spectacular. I'm not going to write down the names of the dishes because I don't remember them, but we ordered a plate of mixed starters that included hummus, an eggplant and tahini cream, an eggplant and roasted pepper cream, falafel, vegetables with rice wrapped in a vine leaf, a spinach roll, and a couple of other things. There were a couple of each and a small jar of huntables. Everything was delicious, well-spiced, but not overpowering or hot. The garlic-seasoned potatoes were very tasty. And two meat dishes, a beef shawarma and a chicken skewer, which I was told were also delicious. The service was outstanding. The waitress who served us was patient. She explained everything and told us which options were gluten-free and which were vegan. The dishes are generous in relation to the price (the quality is excellent). The only drawback is that the restaurant is quite small and you have to climb a very steep staircase. Alternatively, you can sit outside, which is quite spacious, but there are a lot of cars passing by, which is a bit annoying. Highly recommended.
