Manaret Beirut (Instagram) is the latest culinary venture from Wonder Restaurants Group, and it offers an authentic Lebanese dining experience in Dubai. More than a dining experience, it recreates the warmth, tradition, and hospitality that define Lebanese culture.
Located in Motor City, Manaret Beirut caters to families, food lovers, and social diners, offering one of the most extensive Lebanese menus in the GCC, alongside a shisha lounge and live entertainment.
Inspired by the cherished tradition of Lebanese Sunday lunches, the restaurant brings the experience of gathering, sharing, and celebrating through food to Dubai. Lebanese cuisine is always more than a meal, it’s an experience of fresh ingredients, rich flavours, and communal dining. Whether it’s freshly baked Lebanese bread, sizzling grilled meats, mezze spreads, or aromatic shisha enjoyed with friends, every aspect of Manaret Beirut reflects the essence of Beirut’s food culture.
Wonder Restaurants Group, already known for its successful Lebanese bakery and casual dining brand Ka’ak Al Manara (Instagram), saw a gap in the market for a full-fledged Lebanese dining experience in Dubai. Manaret Beirut was created to fill that void, bringing a grand, immersive take on Lebanese food that had not been done before in the city.
Several elements make Manaret Beirut unique. The restaurant features a spacious family dining area with a custom-designed kids’ play zone, making it a popular choice for families. Its vibrant shisha lounge is fully booked every night, providing a perfect setting for guests to unwind and socialize with an extensive selection of premium flavours. A dedicated stage for live music and performances adds an extra layer of cultural immersion, with traditional and contemporary entertainment that enhances the dining experience. The ambiance is another standout feature, with expansive green terraces and water elements that transport diners to the scenic landscapes of Lebanon, creating an atmosphere that is inviting both in summer and winter. Its strategic location in Motor City ensures that residents and visitors have access to a premium Lebanese dining experience without the need for long drives.
The success of Manaret Beirut is just the beginning for Wonder Restaurants Group. With Ka’ak Al Manara already thriving, the company is committed to expanding Lebanese food culture across the UAE and beyond. The long-term vision includes developing new concepts to cater to different dining segments while preserving the authenticity and rich culinary heritage of Lebanon. Their goal is to establish one of the leading Lebanese F&B groups in the region, further solidifying their presence in the industry.
A meal at Manaret Beirut is nothing less than a celebration of Lebanese food, traditions, and hospitality. Whether guests are looking for a home-style meal, a lively evening with live music, or a relaxed social night with shisha, Manaret Beirut offers an experience that is both authentic and unforgettable, bringing a true taste of Beirut to Dubai.
