Our story

Born in Beirut, named for the roses of the Levant

Ward El Cham first opened its doors in Verdun in 2014 and quickly became a favourite among locals and visitors for its authentic Lebanese cuisine and exceptional ambiance.

Today the house welcomes guests at a five-star seaside hotel in Beirut, at the Marina in Tripoli, and soon in Cairo. Every table is set with the chef's recipes and the generosity of a Lebanese home.
