Lonely Planet

"One of Beirut's best manoushe (flatbread baked in a pizza oven) spots, conveniently located between Gemmayzeh and Mar Mikhaël. Cheese and zaatar (a Levantine mix of dried thyme, sumac, salt and sesame) toppings are a delicious time-honoured classic."

Petit Futé

"The snack bar serves excellent manakish. An address not to be missed if you are in the area for lunch."

Anthony Rahayel

"Try the fatayer. Crusty and crunchy like that of a sablé dough followed by a soft and tender inner filling, the fatayer is simply addictive. Notice the light flavor that comes with a lemony aftertaste, minus the harsh acidic taste that comes from your average fatayer. Yum!"

Dominique Auzias

"For over sixty years, Fern Ghattas is the king of fatayer (spinach chausson) in Beirut."

Petit Futé

"An unusual address among the restaurants trend of the neighbourhood! For over sixty years, Fern Ghattas has been the king of fatayer in Beirut. Some guests do not hesitate to take several kilometres to enjoy them."

Emily Elyse Miller

"A hole in the wall at the end of the street, illuminated by a bright green sign. Order the signature three-cheese man’oushe."

Giselle Abcarian

"For one of the best in the country, head to Fern Ghattas, a well-known, ancient spot serving manousheh that features a soft, blistered dough and top-quality zaatar."

Paul Gadalla

"The manaeesh at Fern Ghattas are of exceptional quality. They are large, round and instantly melt in your mouth. The standout is the manousheh with bulgari cheese, diced tomato, onion and spices."

"Decadent delights such as the famous mana’eesh (small pizza-shaped dough bases topped with a range of ingredients, lamb, sausage, cheese)."

Triposo

"One of the best restaurants in town. Lebanese food, lebanese pizza and fusion options. A fresh oven and family atmosphere. Cheap prices."
