Suraya Restaurant
Lebanese mezze and garden lights that make everyone look better
Suraya pulls off something rare: a big, buzzy restaurant that still feels intentional. Order the mezze spread — the hummus bil lahme and fattoush are non-negotiable — and let the garden do the heavy lifting atmospherically. Fishtown address, Beirut energy.
