What– Al Hallab Restaurant
Cuisine– Arabic
Where– Garhoud, Mall of Emirates, Dubai Mall
Recently I visited Al Hallab, one of Dubai’s most beloved Lebanese restaurants at the Mall of Emirates. What I expected were typical Lebanese signature dishes, but what turned out was a vast array of dishes which I actually tried for the first time. Apart from the usual Lebanese fare, they offer innovative dishes like Hummus Avocado , Avocado Lava, Hummus with Pine Nuts (as a warm starter) and a series of salads that were delicious from the word go.
Al Hallab’s story began in 1881 in Lebanon, as a family-run bakeshop known for its artisanal sweets and warm hospitality. From the historic alleys of Lebanon to the heart of Dubai, Ghassan Al Hallab pursued his culinary journey in 2002, by bringing this spirit forward to Dubai; through every flavour, every space, and every moment shared at our table. Al Hallab is more than a restaurant. It is a journey through time and taste, a bridge between heritage and heart. Today, Al Hallab offers distinct dining experiences across four locations in Dubai- Garhoud, Dubai Mall, and Mall of the Emirates – showcasing a full Lebanese Grill experience.
The vibe of the restaurant is quite lively and throbbing. The natural sunlight lights up the place and makes it very warm and inviting. Service is par excellence and tastewise, I would rate the restaurant as 9 out of ten.
For all those who love Lebanese food, I would highly recommend Al Hallab and I am sure they will be happy with the experience like me!!
Perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Al Hallab’s interesting and innovative line -up of food is an ode to authentic Lebanese craftsmanship — comforting, nostalgic, and perfectly at home in Dubai’s vibrant dining scene. Al Hallab, a cornerstone of Lebanese culinary heritage, invites diners to experience its delicious and authentic Lebanese food.
