Le Sushi Bar, my all time favorite Japanese restaurant in Lebanon is a place I come back to every other month just to indulge in an overall experience unmatched elsewhere. A restaurant is not just about the food but the complete experience which starts from the welcoming and ends with a mint candy offered at goodbye.Le Sushi Bar is ranked 59th out of 126 things to do in Beirut on Lonely Planet and 30th restaurant out of 300 on Trip Advisor, for a good reason. It’s a must try minimum once in a lifetime, just to understand what the art of good Japanese cuisine is all about.Reviewed on NoGarlicNoOnions more than four times already, Le Sushi Bar amazes me every time I visit with more and more improvements felt in every visit.

The food is just great: Each and every ingredient used is unique. Some are served cold, others warm, wrapped in rice of simply naked, an amazing experience is on its way. The Kimchee salmon is one of a kind, the shrimp in creamy sauce is not to be missed and the special orders are really majestic. The salmon on ice prepared like a flower is sumptuous. The Temaki! wow! its generosity and freshness make you want to order even more. So enjoyable on all levels. In this place, I won’t call what we do ‘eating’ but more of savoring finesse in a bite.I love this place:
- Adequately lit, you dine is a majestic environment
- How tasty are those cucumber pickles
- The middle atrium, the large bar, the wine coolers, the wooden feel relax all your senses
- The entrance, decorated with candles leaves an amazing first impression
- I am in love with their wine glasses: Beautiful thin crystal glass so enjoyable to drink in
- Just try eating with their glazed chopsticks and see how nice they are
- In such a restaurant, expensive and unique, having a wine sommelier is a must
- On a Tuesday evening, many members of staff were on vacation and we felt it. Knowing in advance that they have a full house, a recall should have been initiated. The poor lady behind the bar was literally dying. I really felt like standing up and helping her with the service tonight.
- The prices are a bit high and not affordable to all
