Mixed appetizers and the main-course mixed grill were described as superb, with unlimited freshly baked bread adding value.
Manakeesh is a recurring highlight, including spinach and cheese, and a long-time favourite of returning customers.
Freshly prepared bread is repeatedly praised, including excellent bread served with meals.
The restaurant has a well-liked sit-out area, alongside indoor dining.
Reviews mention on-site parking, including a small parking area by the restaurant entrance.
Service is often described as attentive and professional, with staff accommodating requests quickly.
Order hummus. Order hummus separately rather than expecting a complimentary appetiser; one reviewer specifically said it had to be ordered.
Check seating. Ask about outdoor seating before you go, since a past review said it was unavailable during summer.
Use parking. Look for the restaurant’s small parking area just after turning towards it, rather than assuming you need street parking.
Skip wings. Avoid the fried chicken wings with garlic if value matters: one review found the wings tiny and the fries soft.
Try coffee. Leave room for Turkish coffee if you enjoy a post-meal drink; one diner called it a pleasant surprise.

Two reviews found the food somewhat salty, so this may matter if you prefer lightly seasoned dishes.
One customer found the manakeesh overcooked or burnt, despite liking the taste overall.
A review found the mixed grill costly at almost 200 AED, with salad and hummus charged separately.
The fried chicken wings with garlic were criticised for tiny portions, a sour taste and soft fries.
One returning customer felt prices had risen while portions had become smaller, alongside some upselling.
The Bottom Line
Arz Lebanon is a Lebanese restaurant in Jumeirah with a menu that works well for sharing. Customers mention mixed appetizers, mixed grill, manakeesh and fattoush, while the freshly baked bread is one of the more consistent highlights. A review specifically praised spinach and cheese manaeesh, and another found the falafel particularly good.
The setting ranges from a lively, family-friendly atmosphere to quieter dining, with indoor and outdoor seating mentioned in different reviews. Parking is also a practical plus: one customer described a small parking area just after turning towards the restaurant. Outdoor seating may not always be available in warmer months, so it is worth checking first.
Service is a strong part of the experience, with repeated comments about attentive, professional staff. There are thoughtful touches too, such as complimentary sweets for a birthday and Turkish coffee that surprised one diner. The restaurant has also been used for traditional breakfast.
Value is less consistent. Some customers call the prices reasonable, but others find them high for Jumeirah; one review put the mixed grill at almost 200 AED before salad and hummus. Hummus must be ordered separately, and a past diner strongly disliked the fried chicken wings with garlic.
Manakeesh can also be worth checking before leaving the table, as one order was reported overcooked.
