Elissar - Lebanese cuisine - Johannesgasse 27

A beautiful Lebanese restaurant, offering delicious food and very luxurious service, and the general atmosphere and place is a masterpiece, unfolding in the deliciousness of food and the beauty of the place.

Everything from the mezze to the dessert was amazing, very welcoming staff and a cozy environment

As a Lebanese citizen, the food was as great as I have in Lebanon! Every plate was delicious! What's even better is that it matches my daughter's name!

A great dinner place with lovely atmosphere. Elissar is one of those places where you like to go over and over again and being greeted as a regular customer. The place: the restaurant present itself as an upscale Lebanese restaurant and delivers greatly. The terrace is really nice and the interior design of the main dining room is beautiful. The place is always packed but never overwhelming. It just brings the right vibe for a pleasant night in 2 or with friends. The service: service can seem to some a bit abrupt from time to time. But overall it is professional and friendly. You can crack a joke and have fun. Reservation and flexibility were perfectly handled. The food: honestly I'm not Lebanese nor Middle Eastern food expert. On the contrary it is a kind of food I have only recently discovered and learned to love and enjoy. My experiences are limited, but Elissar delivers simply great flavourful food that I keep enjoying every time I go there. Love the meat and in particular their Soujouk sausages. Desserts are great as well. Discovered thanks to a Lebanese friend a few years ago, I really enjoy hitting the place regularly. It's not on the cheapest side, but prices seem in line with Vienna restaurant scene, especially considering quality of food and environment. It's a beautiful place where you can spend an great night eating outstanding food. What else can you ask for?

The food portions are big. We ordered the meze plate for 2 people and we could not finish it. As far as the taste goes, can't say I was a big fan (not being a fan of the Lebanese cuisine in general). However, the atmosphere is very nice. I loved the homemade passion fruit lemonade. The serving was ok. The tables are a bit crowded.

Really nice upscale Lebanese restaurant with a great selection of regional staples, freshly prepared. Bread is baked on order totally fresh and delicious, which is a huge plus in comparison to other similar places in Vienna. Cardamom induced coffee is spectacular and baklava options from the sweets counter looked incredibly tempting. Service was polite and approachable. We had a very nice time and will definitely go back soon.

Best Oriental restaurant in town. Great atmosphere, friendly waiters, and incredibly tasty food. We went for the mixed appetizer platter for 2 people, and it was delicious. Extremely flavourful, well balanced in taste, and more than enough for two people. We will definitely come back often. Would recommend!

If you are looking Schnitzel, this might be a place where you can finally try Halal Schnitzel in Vienna ☺️ it was beautifully presented and the flavour was on point. The staff were welcoming and I loved the low light environment and I am excited to try the breakfast menu in the future!!
