About Le Grain de Sable
Authentic Lebanese restaurant near the Vieux-Port serving generous mezze platters and grilled meats. Family-run operation where the mother still makes all the pastries daily. The mixed grill for two is enough for three people, and the homemade labneh is exceptional.
Insider Tips
Order the mezze discovery platter for the table and add one main dish per person, as the portions are much larger than they appear on the menu.
