The Good Stuff
Grilled dishes
The mixed grill, lamb chops and grilled chicken receive strong praise for seasoning, tenderness and juicy cooking.
Lebanese flavours
Hummus, muhammara and fattoush are described as fresh, authentic and well made, giving the ready-to-eat menu more range than meat alone.
Clean shop
Several reviews mention a clean shop and fresh food, including one customer who specifically checked the butcher section before ordering.
Delivery options
Some repeat customers report quick delivery, hot food and careful packing, with phone ordering and cash or card payment available.
Low-fat mince
One customer found the biftek, kofta, minced beef and burger quick to receive, clean and notably low in fat.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check cuts. For a BBQ, inspect the butcher section and specify the cut you want; reviews praise the custom cuts but also report fatty or tough lamb chops.
Allow time. Build in extra time for collection or delivery, since customers have reported waits of 45 minutes and delivery delays of up to two hours.
Check receipt. Review the final bill for duplicated VAT and unwanted additions, especially when ordering through Instashop.
Use rear parking. If driving, look for the rear parking route via the entry roundabout; one local review says free spaces are underneath the buildings.

The Bottom Line
The Lebanese Butcher in Damac Hills combines a retail butcher with a small Lebanese food operation. You can buy cuts such as cubes, kafta and shish taouk for grilling, or order ready-to-eat dishes including mixed grill, lamb chops, shish taouk, hummus and fattoush. A few reviews also mention Lebanese groceries, frozen appetisers and manakish, so it is more than a counter for raw meat.
The strongest pattern is good food when preparation goes well. Customers describe tender shish taouk, juicy grilled chicken, creamy hummus and an impressive mixed grill; one long-term customer also values low-fat minced beef and kofta. Delivery has been praised for hot, neatly packed food, and phone orders can be paid by cash or card.
There is a meaningful service caveat. Other customers report slow orders, deliveries arriving one to two hours late, incorrect ingredients, poor responses to complaints and billing problems involving duplicated VAT. One recent review alleges an unpleasant-smelling meat order and says a municipality complaint about expired meat was validated; that is a serious customer-reported concern.
Parking is also confusing: some reviews call it extremely difficult, while another points to free spaces behind the buildings. Check your order and receipt carefully, particularly for allergies or app orders.
