Lebnani Restaurant in Reigate and Banstead

Tastes like Lebanon and feels like a warm hug from home. We walked in as they were celebrating their AA star. And we soon realized why they got it. The flavors, the vibe, the kindness, the cleanliness, the professionalism. So happy we drove from London to discover this gem, nestled in such a cute town. Recommend everyone to experience Lebnani.

Thank you for the fabulous feast you prepared for 14 of us to have at home for a birthday celebration. The table was laden with delicious, fresh Lebanese food. A perfect spread for the meat eaters, veggies and vegan. It was a real treat. X

Very good Lebanese food. The restaurant is quite small but very cozy, I’d recommend booking. Tends to get quite busy and service can be slow but the food is 100% worth the wait.

Best restaurant and food in Reigate. We have been here several times for lunch, dinner and takeaways and never been disappointed. For lunch the wraps are delicious! You can order one to takeaway for £7, which I think is reasonable and it’s so tasty. Or if you eat in at lunch they do wrap platters with salad and houmous. The falafel is the best I’ve had, super crispy on the outside and soft inside, and very flavoursome. It can be difficult to get a booking for evenings, because it’s so popular - but don’t let that put you off. The staff are great and very accommodating. I’d highly recommend this place for any occasion!

We frequently visit Lebnani and it’s one of our all time favourites. It never disappoints. Staff are always friendly and helpful and there’s a great atmosphere. The cocktails are delicious, my favourite is the pomegranate mojito but others on the table enjoyed the spicy margarita & the fig prosecco fizz. We always go for a wide selection from the mezze and you couldn’t go wrong with any choice here. But today the absolute star of the show was the special - lamb sausages - which were incredible, so tasty and the pomegranate molasses and labneh perfectly balanced the dish. Special mention to the pickles. Onto mains, which as always were perfectly cooked and delicious. The wild garlic chicken special was tasty and enjoyed alongside the mixed grill and lamb rump. Better yet, any leftovers make for perfect lunch the next day! We finished with some baklava and a fresh mint tea. We always have a lovely meal at Lebnani and couldn’t recommend it enough. Equally as tasty when ordered as a takeaway! :)

We had a takeaway tonight. Meat was delicious. But we found big plastic piece in grilled aubergine

We went here as when we walked past it was busy and the food smelt amazing. We would highly recommend this place as the food and service was amazing. We will be back here next time we visit again.

Fantastic restaurant and friendly staff

Amazing lebanese in Reigate. Wonderful first experience, we will be regularly coming back.

Busy place even on a Thursday. Ordered way too much food but it was all tasty. Lots of lamb options which is nice to see. Left with some Turkish delight.

Delicious food! Even for vegans and fuzzy eaters, I took my family to Lebnani with quite challenging palets and likings the food was incredibly delicious, we weren't expecting high quality of freshness and taste

The staff have always helped with recommending great choices off the menu. The flavours of the food are incredible, one of my favourite restaurants.

Just delicious authentic mouthwatering food that never disappoints. Fresh ingredients a real tastebud treat Friendly helpful staff

This is the second time I have been to this restaurant- once a few years ago and again recently. I am not sure why I left it so long! The food is just as amazing as I remember it and full of flavour. Definitely worth a visit.

Lebnani is hands down our favourite restaurant! My husband and I have been coming here for years, and every visit is an absolute delight. This family-owned gem serves the most incredible, authentic Lebanese food—everything is made from scratch, and you can truly taste the freshness in every bite. We also had the pleasure of taking a cooking class at Lebnani, and it was such a fantastic experience! We learned some amazing recipes, all completely authentic, and got to see firsthand just how much care and tradition go into every dish. The class was not only educational but also so much fun—we left with new skills, a deep appreciation for the cuisine, and, of course, full stomachs! Beyond the food, what truly makes Lebnani special is the warm and welcoming owners. They make you feel like part of the family, and we always look forward to coming back. If you’re looking for delicious, fresh, and authentic Lebanese cuisine—or even a fun, hands-on cooking experience—this is the place to go!

Been to Lebnani plenty of times and had a few Friday night take aways too, lovely, lovely food and great service, best in Reigate imo. Recently attended a Lebnani cooking class too, had a great time, fun and learned some top tips to try and recreate at home.

We went twice in one week as it was so good we had to return with the kids second time!! Fantastic service from Sophie

Consistently excellent food whether in the restaurant or as a take away. Always a friendly welcome at the restaurant and a good buzz.

We absolutely loved our first experience at Lebnani in Reigate this past weekend. We were blown away by the authentic fresh food and felt like we were transported to Lebanon for a night. The service was fantastic and we would highly recommend this lovely spot for lunch or a night out. Every morsel down to the pomegranate lemonade and the take home baklava + Turkish delights were fantastic!

Nice food however the portion sizes were small for the price point

Have eaten at Lebnani numerous times and always absolutely love it. More recently we used the outside catering service for a big gathering we had to celebrate a birthday - it was excellent - great communication, great service, fantastic food. Highly recommend these guys!

Wonderful food and lovely service, what more could you ask for?

I honestly don’t think I’ve eaten food as good as Lebnani. It’s always amazing! I’m never disappointed. I’d eat it every day if I could! The service is always on point. The portions are great and the flavours are to die for, from the meats to the veggies and rice. Love the rice! Always perfect and highly recommend! If your thinking of trying it. Don’t think, just go and do it! 10 stars 🌟

We had a fantastic meal here last night! Our 11-year-old daughter had been wanting to try it for ages, so we finally took her—and she loved it too. The staff were wonderful with her, even letting her sample the lemonades to help her choose. As always, the food was excellent. I’ve seen some reviews mentioning that dishes come The timing felt natural, with no long gaps between plates.

Fantastic and authentic lebanese food

My favourite restaurant. Superb Lebanese food. We had lunch today (great deal too!) - the chicken and kafta with rice were lovely.

Tasty Lebanese fare. Hummus with shawarma was pick of our dishes. Tasty lamb kofta but unlike a lot of other places where I've had this dish, there was only one kofta despite the relatively steep price. Pleasant service too, recommend.

A wonderful meal for my father’s birthday. The starters and main course were all as you would except from a Lebanese restaurant, and were all delicious. And the staff were lovely too. Maybe the heating can be turned up a bit when it’s cold.

Great, wonderful little Restaurant that tastes just like the food back home, the dishes are beautifully presented and the staff could not have been more helpful. The lebanese hospitality truly shines through and we will be returning with our entire family!

Authentic delicious Lebanese Flavours, great service and beautiful atmosphere, feels like being transported back to Beirut.

This restaurant serves fantastic food! I have been here a couple of times, and it is the best Lebanese food I have ever had. There is no bad choice on the menu! The service is bubbly, friendly, and efficient. The bill was very resonable, especially given the quality of the food. The only drawback (if there is one at all) is that the venue is small, but that can't be helped, and I will certainly be dining here regularly.

Fab food. Quick to take away and goes out their way to bring to your car if you pull up. Well done again

Amazing food with so much flavour, great atmosphere and service. Best meal we've had for ages, loved it. Thank you!

We did the Lebnani cooking experience as a family Christmas gift and had the most amazing day. The staff were wonderful - accommodating, generous, friendly and utterly welcoming and authentic. And the food was spectacular. We learnt how to make shish touk (grilled chicken) and the most wonderfully creamy hummus which we’ve repeated at home twice already! I cannot recommend it enough - and a bargain at the price, as besides the amazing experience, the food and wine is so plentiful. Thank you to Aga, Simon and Jad for a truly special experience that I cannot stop telling everybody about!

The best restaurant experience we have had all year (it's November) Delicious food all done with just a little extra flare and the quality is incredible. It's a cozy little spot with that looks quite chic.

Had a wonderful takeaway meal for 9 people, menu perfectly recommended by a member of staff and just the right amount of food. Absolutely delicious.

I recently had the absolute joy of taking their cookery class on a Sunday afternoon. It was an exceptional experience guided by owner Jad and their chef Simon hosted by the wonderful Aga. I learnt so much & I cannot wait to recreate the dishes in my own kitchen, armed with all the new secrets. 🤭🤫 The wine was flowing, the food was delicious & plentiful, vibes were intimate, hilarious and homely. I cannot recommend the restaurant highly enough, if you're able to get your hands on a ticket to the cookery class, you're in for the biggest treat. Thank you, Aga, Jad & Simon. See you soon. ❤️

We came for a birthday dinner, shared a load of mezze. Great options for vegan / veggie and those that eat everything. Sophie served us and she was a delight. Thanks a mill 🫶🏼

Lebnani never disappoints. Whether it’s a takeaway or eat in, every mouthful is absolutely delicious. Best restaurant in Reigate

The lamb was quite expensive so was expecting abit more source and accoutrements

Super delicious. The employee’s attention is excellent

It's compact and the bench seats against the wall aren't the most comfortable but the atmosphere is nice - busy but not frenetic; and the food we had, mixed meze, was a high standard a worthy 4/5.

This restaurant is one of our favourite places in Reigate. The food is delicious and you are always well looked after by all of the members of the team. As the restaurant is small the atmosphere creates a warm and intimate environment. You should book in advance to enjoy this wonderful food as it is not to be missed.

We hosted a birthday party and ordered catering which was amazing. The food was just as amazing as you get from the restaurant but delivered straight to our home. The food was delivered in lovely catering platters and the guests absolutely raved about the food. Would highly recommend and will be ordering more catering from them again.

the food was gorgeous, the service was quick and everyone was really friendly!!

Lovely food, fast service, and good choice

We had an amazing experience at Lebnani - very attentive service, unbelievable food and a great atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Received a most wonderful food hamper from the Lebnani restaurant as a gift from a friend. Included within the box was a mix of Lebanese spices, delicacies, wine and a recipe pamphlet. What a great surprise.

Lovely little place in Reigate. Fantastic food, really high quality; great decor and brilliant service.

Food excellent- service poor. Staff too busy clearing up, chatting and cleaning tables to serve customers

The food is good, but the service appalling! It ruined the experience and the atmosphere. Such a shame.

I LOVE THE HOMEMADE LEMONADE APPLE, GINGER AND MINT IS MY FAVOURITE!! SAT OUTSIDE ON TUESDAY IN THE SEPTEMBER SUNSHINE. GREAT SERVICE BY SOPHIE & ROSIE. AND DELICIOUS FOOD I HAD THE SHISH WRAP PLATTER. WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK FOR LUNCH. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FAB RESTAURANT

Lebnani has become my family’s favourite restaurant within the area; we love to take friends for meals with authentic music, ambiance and hospitality which transports us to the Middle East. Plenty of choice for vegans - I just wish the baklava was vegan as it always looks so delicious! However, I make do with the delicious Turkish delights. The falafels are out of this world, so flavoursome and moorish (a world apart from those at Comptoir Libanais which taste dry and plain). Food is incredible and I tell everyone about it! Mezzes are the best way to eat, with people you care about 😊. Can’t wait for my next visit.

It's a shame that there is not an option to add a bonus star to the ratings, because this restaurant more than deserves it. it is a complete standout in the restaurant world and, although, we are fortunate enough to have a vast selection of restaurants in Reigate, this is a complete gem, which keeps me coming back and back, for either lunch or dinner. They are also now starting to do outside catering, which I know will be as equally successful , as the restaurant currently is. I can't wait for an occasion to use them, though no excuse is really needed! The space itself may be small, but it's beautiful and vibrant, and the welcome you receive from the happy (and still very efficient) staff is both warm and friendly - a true neighbourhood restaurant. The kitchen staff are amazing; producing wonderful , delicious and beautifully presented food and drink (in record time), with what appears to be very little space and still with a smile on their faces - big shout and thank you to you all in the kitchen. I could happily eat the whole menu, with the incredible price point, I probably could too. Thank you to you all, so very much, for such a fabulous restaurant; I'm already looking forward to my next meal with you.

My family and I visited on a Friday evening. We'd booked on Open Table and were immediately shown to our table. There are lots of tempting dishes on the menu. We chose several small plates as a meze starter, all were excellent. The main courses were also delicious. The homemade lemonade deserves a mention as it was very special. Service was friendly and efficient. We'll go again!

Delicious food, well priced and quick to come. Highly recommend !!

Great food and atmosphere. Highly recommended. Can't wait to go back.

Thank you for our delicious mezze dinner earlier this month. We really enjoyed our evening and pleased the weather was mild enough to sit outdoors, making us feel on holiday in our own town! My cucumber cocktail and my daughter’s apple lemonade were delicious and we loved your panna cotta and baklava, which we finished on our walk home. Your restaurant is our favourite in town for dinner!

Food was brilliant. Well made and really tasty. Price was OK for a lunch but on the more expensive side. Staff were attentive and friendly. Was more a cafe vibe rather than restaurant

Lebnani did a fantastic job catering for a family gathering we were hosting at home. All the stress of cooking for a large group was taken away, we ordered in advance and collected the food on the day, and everyone loved it. I would absolutely do this again. Thank you.

Lovely small and attractive place to have lunch. First rate food served by very friendly and helpful servers. Family friendly! Highly recommended.

I found the food on the who was far too salty I could not eat it. I asked something else it was equally salty

I can't say enough about how wonderful this little gem of a restaurant is. The authenticity of the delcious food, and the integrity of the owners is inspiring. I travel out of my way to visit and am never disappointed. I participated in a cookery afternoon with my daughter and the owners were so welcoming and generous. Thank you!

Great cookery course - thoroughly enjoyed it and took away my favourite recipes!

Terrible wine and even worst service.

Love this restaurant. Family run and very authentic and delicious food. You can tell how much care Jad and Aga put into it. Looking forward to returning soon xx

Excellent food and service. The hummous was exceptional and the various grilled meats we ordered were all great.

This place is a one of the best hidden gems I’ve been to so far, amazing small plates and great flavour and it tastes amazing. I will be back for sure and I recommend you must try, you will not be disappointed.

Very nice family run restaurant which has a really personal touch every time we go. The food tastes very fresh and is presented immaculately. If you like Lebanese food this is the spot in town!

I have visited to have their delicious food and I also recently went to their wonderful cooking class. The food and atmosphere are incredible. The cooking class is the best and the passion and knowledge they share is priceless. Please continue to offer your amazing food and keep the cooking classes coming. I’d also be interested if you started hosting wine tastings or special menus and evening events. This is one of the best spots in Reigate 😊

We have been to Lebnani three times now and taken friends back with us. We love the laid back atmosphere, the delicious freshly cooked food and the friendly staff. It is good value and healthy and it’s great to have a ‘local’ (we drive over from Epsom as we don’t have anything that compares) restaurant that is so good.

We just had a lovely family meal celebrating my brothers birthday. Serving a busy table of 9 (with a toddler) is not easy, but the staff were incredibly friendly and the food was insane! I came here 2 years ago and standards haven't slipped at all. The chicken shawarma was delicious and managed to sample alot of mezze dishes on our table. Also, would like to thank one member of staff (blonde hair - worked 6/7/24) was so friendly with my 2 year old. Even came outside when she found his toy. Can't wait to come back again!

Booked ahead as busy restaurant for lunchtime. I’d wanted to try out this place since moving here and it didn’t disappoint. The falafel, halloumi and salad were delightful and I was even offered a complimentary dessert as couldn’t manage the whole portion. I would definitely recommend!

Couldn’t recommend this place enough. Food is amazing really good quality and very tasty. Everyone was very friendly and the atmosphere was cosy and intimate. I would definitely recommend the hummus it’s the best and the shish taouk. Will definitely be going back here again !!

Ordered via Deliveroo. It was the worst food poisoning in my entire life. I was bedridden for 3 days. Never again.

Super tasty and really friendly staff. Highly recommend! Especially the dips!

We had a thoroughly enjoyable evening at Lebnani; made so by the delicious food, attentive service and lovely ambience. We ate a range of vegetarian and meat-based small and large plates, all of which were stunningly good. The atmosphere was buzzy (even on a Tuesday evening) but chilled. The staff were personable and knowledgeable. We hope to visit again soon and would highly recommend it to others.

Me and my wife dined here tonight. Very pleasant restaurant. Immediately greeted and seated. Drinks order taken within 2 minutes. Food arrived in good time after ordering. The food itself was fantastic! I recommend the roasted chicken shawarma. Reminded me of a similar dish I had on the border of Syria. Will return, no doubt!

Absolutely wonderful restaurant. Food was absolutely fantastic and flavourful. The staff were lovely and the place had a great vibe. Would recommend to anyone as plenty of choice. Definitely book however as the restaurant is on the smaller side and it was super busy.

Delicious selection of food & good portions

Food is not really authentic, love Lebanese food but this wasn’t up to it. Tried the mezze which they were untestable and dry, what a shame. Service tho was pretty good.

Absolutely lovely meal here - all of the food was amazing ( we shared lots of the starters and then had a couple of mains ) - the hummus and halloumi are an absolute must! We went for my birthday and the lovely team even bought me flowers! Will definitely be back and 100% recommend!

There were 5 of us and we ordered lunch: two main courses and 4 smaller ones. Everything's great. Lamb, chicken, beef, humus, parsley salad, rice. For dessert, good coffee and baklava. The staff speaks several languages. I recommend! Pleasant atmosphere - very clean and nice!

The best Lebanese restaurant we've ever been to. Lebanese & Polish owners with true passion to Food and Hospitality. Just amazing, meat was juicy and tender, and the fragrance just makes you salivate like crazy! Highly recommend giving it a try😍

Best Lebanese I’ve tried in UK. Quality, freshness, authenticity. Highly recommended.

We had a take away and it was one of the best take away meals we've had. Four of us ate and everyone said that their meal was tasty and delicious. We will definitely order from Lebnani again and may even eat in on day!

Fabulous , exquisite, mouth-watering! Lebnani reigate is a MUST dine out experience. Everything about Lebnani, makes your experience enjoyable: the food, the people, the ambiance, the decors. If you try it once, you will go back for more...It simply never disappoints! And it is reasonably priced - I introduced my son to it and since, it is Lebnani night every Friday! Whether you eat in or take it away, the levant flavour is guaranteed - I am so lucky and grateful for having Lebnani close to where I live. Such a great discovery !

Had this last night after a recommendation from a friend. It was lovely! The food was delicious. We will definitely be ordering again

Never tried Lebanese food before but I will definitely be having it again. The food was incredible. The service was spot on and although it was quite a small space it was very relaxed

BEST restaurant in Reigate by a mile. The food will blow you away - amazing dishes particularly the chicken, lamb, hummus, salads. Absolutely delicious!

Been twice, lunch and dinner. Excellent both times. Best place to eat in Reigate. Light lunch was good value too.

Awesome food, perfect every time 🇱🇧✨

Lebanese vs Turkish? As kebab & grill restaurants take over our town centres, we visited our first Lebanese. At Lenani we opted for a takeaway as the restaurant is tiny, was packed and noisy. The online menu was unfortunately not very clear with numerous spelling mistakes and no real description of the food. Our food came to £63 for two of us with 3x starters and 2x mains, which was expensive but about the right amount food. The main difference with Lebanese food is the spices used. All the usual suspects were on the menu including shish kebab, Adana style kebab, shawarma, hummus, halloumi, cold and hot mezze selection. The main difference is the Lebanese food was spicier (hot) with more lemon, thyme, rose, mint, cinnamon and allspice. Turkish tends to use more bay leaf, paprika & oregano and is not so hot. The mixed kebabs we had were sadly all a little dry, although the flavour was very good. You get a tiny slither of bread and a ton of red onions flavoured with sumac (lemon spice) but no salad! The chicken Shawarma was mostly meat and onion and tasted tangy of preserved lemon. It was a truly delicious flavour but again came with just a tiny slither of soggy flat bread and no salad. A starter of Sticky chicken wings was a large portion (similar to a main) but was not very sticky and was served the same as the main courses with a ton of red onion and a slither of bread. None of the main courses (like in a Turkish) come with rice, bulgur wheat or salad. This is charged extra, adding to the overall cost. Don't get me wrong, the Lebanese food here is good, but I missed the large salads, rice and the normal delicious bread selection served with Turkish food, that is all so welcome when eating a large platter of grilled meats. Value for money was also not as good as our local Turkish (Shiraz Horley) restaurant that charges a lot less for a lot more food!! For that reason and in our own personal opinion, Turkish food wins. Lebnani is however well worth a visit to try the very different unique flavours. Good luck.

Small family run restaurant. The Mezze was very tasty, these smaller starter plates were amazing! My favourite was the Lamb Kibbe. The main barbeque meals were tasty but not quite to the standard of the fantastic starters. We had the Chicken Taouk and the Lamb Kafta. There was an awful lot of rice, a single chilli and half a tomato with no salad. These meals were nice but just lacked a certain something. This took my rating down from 5 to 4. If I visited again I would probably just order more Mezze dishes. Pictures of all the food would have been really useful here, I just assumed the main would come with something more than it did. Friendly staff and atmosphere. I would visit again for the Mezze. Outdoor tables at the front nice on a warm/sunny day. Warm and friendly staff.

We popped in for first visit here and managed to get a table for two. We shared 3 Meze dishes. They were delicious, full of flavours and very fresh. Prices were reasonable and the lady who served us was lovely.

Excellent atmosphere, menue and lovely food l. You must visit

Working away and noticed this place and gave it a try. Friendly staff and tasty food. Nice atmosphere not a big restaurant so at least you can hear yourselves talk.

Very good food in a cozy atmosphere which is added to by seeing and hearing the chefs make your food. Didn't go 5 star as I've had better presentation and portion size at this price point locally.

Lovely, great interesting food, a great little gem

Fantastic meal, great service, highly recommend
