What to Eat at Jabal Lebnan Butchery & Grill How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Jabal Lebnan Butchery & Grill, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Plan parking. Allow extra time to park, especially if you are visiting to buy raw meat.
Confirm orders. For online orders, confirm preparation status rather than assuming the order has started.
Try raw kebbeh. If you want a distinctly Lebanese speciality, consider the Raw Kebbeh, praised for its homemade-style texture and taste.
Order manakish. The cheese and meat manakish are a strong first order if you are visiting for Lebanese baked food.

The Bottom Line
Jabal Lebnan combines a Lebanese butchery with a sit-down grill in Al Barsha South. You can buy fresh cuts for home or have meat prepared and cooked on site; reviews specifically praise the mixed grill, grilled chicken, hummus with meat and manakish. That two-in-one setup is useful when you want dinner now but also need meat for a later barbecue.
The strongest theme is ingredient quality. Customers describe the raw selection as varied, clean and well prepared, while lamb and grilled meats arrive tender, juicy and well seasoned. Fattoush, tabbouleh and other salads are often mentioned as fresh, and delivery reviewers found meals neatly packed, warm and flavourful.
Raw Kebbeh is another distinctive order, praised for its texture and authentic homemade-style taste. The dining room has surprised customers who expected a butchery to feel less restaurant-like: one review mentions clean tables and a nice view. Service is often described as warm and attentive, though one customer reported an employee attitude problem.
There are practical cautions. Parking can be very difficult, online preparation has failed for at least one repeat customer, and sandwich size and pricing have drawn criticism. If ordering online, confirm that preparation has started; for a first visit, manakish or Raw Kebbeh gives you a focused introduction to the Lebanese side of the menu.
