A Lebanese street-food restaurant in Dubai serving shawarma, manakish, falafel, grilled dishes, sandwiches and traditional breakfast throughout the day. The concept brings casual Beirut-inspired street food into a relaxed dining setting, with branches across several popular areas of Dubai and other UAE cities.

What Is Allo Beirut Known For?

The restaurant is best known for its Lebanese street food, particularly shawarma and freshly prepared manakish. Its menu also includes falafel, hummus, grilled meats, sandwiches, wraps, salads, mezze, breakfast dishes and fresh drinks.

For people looking for a casual Lebanese meal rather than a formal dining experience, the menu offers plenty of familiar options in different portions and styles.

Popular Dishes to Try

The menu covers a wide range of Lebanese and Middle Eastern favourites. Some of the commonly ordered choices include:

• Chicken shawarma sandwich
• Beef shawarma sandwich
• Shawarma platters
• Manakish
• Falafel sandwiches
• Hummus and mezze
• Grilled meats
• Grilled halloumi
• Shakshouka
• Fatteh
• Fresh juices

The shawarma sandwiches are served with combinations of fries, pickles and sauces, while the beef version includes ingredients such as tomato, onion, parsley, sumac and tahini.

Lebanese Breakfast

Breakfast is an important part of the menu and is available beyond the typical lunch and dinner options. Choices include shakshouka, fried eggs, fattet hummus, fattet eggplant, foul tahina, musabaha and grilled halloumi.

This makes the restaurant useful for people searching for a Lebanese breakfast as well as those visiting later in the day.

Manakish and Freshly Baked Food

Manakish is another notable part of the menu. The restaurant’s open-kitchen style at City Walk allows diners to see food being prepared, including bread and manakish coming from the oven. Visit Dubai also highlights the freshly made manakish as one of the things worth trying.

Shawarma and Street Food

For visitors specifically looking for shawarma in Dubai, the menu offers both chicken and beef options. They can be ordered as regular or larger sandwiches, Saj sandwiches, or complete platters.

Chicken shawarma comes with fries, pickles and garlic sauce, while beef shawarma is paired with tomato, pickles, onion, parsley, sumac and tahini.
