You'll find authentic Lebanese cuisine at Beitna, a family-run spot tucked away on Rue Clément Vienot in Vincennes. Chef Eid Hage brings his passion for traditional recipes to every plate, making everything from scratch with fresh ingredients. While the HappyCow listing highlights their excellent vegan mezze options, the whole menu shines - just ask for the raheb or arayess if you want something beyond the usual hummus and falafel.
Authentic homemade Lebanese in Vincennes
Beitna is the kind of place where you can taste the difference that homemade cooking makes. Located at 17 Rue Clément Vienot, this family restaurant has been serving authentic Lebanese cuisine since 2012, with chef-owner Eid Hage at the helm. His background in a Parisian palace hotel and international Lebanese restaurant chains shows in the quality and attention to detail.
The menu features all the Lebanese classics you'd expect - hummus, mtabbal, sambousek - but also introduces you to lesser-known dishes like raheb and arayess. Everything is made fresh on-site, which means you can ask about allergens with confidence. The vegan mezze plate is particularly well-executed, offering a great way to sample multiple dishes. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious, perfect for a casual meal. While it doesn't have a flashy Instagram presence, the food speaks for itself, earning it a solid 4.5-star rating on TripAdvisor and a spot in the top 10 restaurants in Vincennes.
Hours are limited (Tuesday-Saturday lunch and dinner, Sunday lunch only), so plan accordingly. They also offer takeaway if you want to enjoy their Lebanese specialties at home.
