    The menu reflects the owner’s home culinary heritage, food cooked in the purest way – made from history, in a kitchen and bar built from scratch.. and of course, 𝒂 𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝒃𝒊𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒓𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆.. Hands down, the best and tops my list of restaurants recommendations. Very authentic taste of East Mediterranean cuisine. I was completely blown away by how the owner Amr has elevated everything, especially the food presentation and taste. Unbelievable. 𝗖𝗢𝗟𝗗 𝗠𝗘𝗭𝗭𝗔 ⭐️ 𝑻𝒂𝒃𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒆𝒉 210𝒃 ⭐️ 𝑴𝒐𝒖𝒉𝒂𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒂 270𝒃 ⭐️ 𝑳𝒂𝒃𝒏𝒆 210𝒃 ⭐️ 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒔 + 𝒃𝒆𝒆𝒇 𝒇𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒕 310𝒃 ⭐️ 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒔 210𝒃 ⭐️ 𝑾𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒌 𝑬𝒏𝒂𝒃 220 “Appetizers” were served and instantly I was experiencing a loss of control, the table was quickly disappearing under the ceramic bowls and hot plates of beautiful dishes. The soulful Hommus dishes blended lavishly with tahini was insanely smooth and fluffy, a ring of silky perfection. Labne is deceptively described as “just strained yogurt, olive oil, fresh mint and zaatar” but at first taste, my head spun wild from the heavy romance of texture and fragrance. Easily mistaken for hommus at first glance the savory Mouhamara is your quintessential Middle Eastern starter that pairs nicely with hommus. Warak Enab means ‘leaves of grapes’ in Lebanese, otherwise known as vine leaves, here it is stuffed with rice and herbs cooked until it is tender and juicy, served straight from the pot while it is still hot. And we’ve only just started. ​ 𝗛𝗢𝗧 𝗠𝗘𝗭𝗭𝗔 ❤️‍🔥 𝑭𝒂𝒍𝒂𝒇𝒆𝒍 190𝒃 ❤️‍🔥 𝑴𝒂𝒌𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒌 290𝒃 ❤️‍🔥 𝑽𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝑳𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝑨𝒍𝒆𝒙𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒂 290𝒃 These dishes - life changing. A few bites into the chickpeas croquettes served with tahini, and you will be taken to Falafel heaven. Unlike any you have eaten. The homemade Lebanese sausages Makanek uses the best lamb – grilled than sautéed with Lebanese pomegranate molasses. Particularly good mopped up with freshly baked pita bread straight from oven to table. The Veal Liver Alexandria came - and omg, the food chemistry that was going on here?! You could taste the passion and the attention given to this dish. Exceptionally good ingredients, perfect cooking, mousse-like texture that was so light yet exploding with flavor – it was SO tasty! 𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗦 🔥 𝑴𝒊𝒙𝒆𝒅 𝑮𝒓𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓 690𝒃 🔥 𝑨𝒓𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒔 𝑳𝒂𝒉𝒎 350𝒃 🔥 𝑺𝒂𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒂 𝑯𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒂 𝑻𝒓𝒊𝒑𝒐𝒍𝒊 490𝒃 It was like each dish was better than the previous. The garnish happy, flavor-bomb Mixed Grill Platter is next level delicious, a loaded combination of warm spices and variety of meat that was moist and cooked to perfection. You can’t go wrong ordering this! The gorgeous looking Arayes Lahm dish of spiced lamb mince stuffed between two Saj bread chargrilled. And as the finale to the main courses, the Samaka Harra Tripoli is one spiced secret discovered that I am happy to share with all! Delicate white fish topped with delicious hot tangy tahini sauce, served with Lebanese rice .. this is my ultimate comfort food. Fish and rice, the best! 𝗗𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗧𝗦 🍬 𝑩𝒂𝒌𝒍𝒂𝒘𝒂 𝑾𝒂𝒍𝒏𝒖𝒕𝒔 160𝒃 🍬 𝑩𝒂𝒌𝒍𝒂𝒘𝒂 𝑷𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒐 160𝒃 🍬 𝑶𝒎 𝑨𝒍𝒊 250𝒃 The sweetest ending to this amazing dinner spread – you will need numerous napkins to blot up the syrup glistening from your smiling face. Baklawa Pistachio and Walnut were on point here - the dozens of delicate layers melt into a single tender bite soaked in sweet syrup, such a decadent treat. Also had Om Ali which means ‘Mother of Ali’ which is a very famous Egyptian desert, eaten simply at home, weddings or any special occasions! The Middle Eastern version of bread pudding. This dish apparently is named after the wife of the Sultan of Egypt who asked her cooks to come up with the most delicious dessert they could make. Most delicious, indeed! Levantine is also a 100% Halal, Kosher friendly and do not serve pork.

    (Translated by Google) If you want to try the Levantine, the Egyptian king, try it once, you will not regret it. Levantine food will take you to the night of the Arabs and you will feel the joy of being and the king of Egypt. Try once. You will not regret. فعلا احلى مطعم لبناني وبحر ابيض متوسط ​​ممكن تشوفه في لاجونا بوكيت (Original) If you want to try the heavens food you need to try the Levantine restaurant, food will take you to the arabian nights and you will feel the happiness of being and Egyptian king , try it once, you will not regret it .

    Fantastic food, great atmosphere. We went as a party of 4 (an Englishman and 3 Lebanese diners), one of us an experienced Lebanese cook! 4 tough food critics, eating food that they are overly familiar with in Thailand, where very few of the ingredients necessary for good Lebanese food can be easy sourced. Imagine our surprise when homemade pita bread, cooked moments before being served at our table arrived with lebne and hummus that had our home grown Lebanese cook blushing and asking for the recipe..... Our party had arrived to test and critique and found ourselves in a wonderland of flavours and choices that left us feeling blissfully satisfied, and curious about what we can order for our next visit. Levantine is a thoroughly thought out, modern restaurant, offering the best of a modern middle Eastern menu that has been well designed and fantastically executed.

    Good food. Great atmosphere. The decoration of the place is fabulous. Highly recommend to visit the place if you would like to try Lebanese food. We ordered hummus with Chicken shawarma, the shawarma was not too good. Everything else was amazing.

    First of all, outstanding service from one particular staff who really cared about every patron. We came for dinner quite early and had a great introduction to this kind of cuisine. Every single dish was exceptional, though we wished we ordered more chicken. The dessert was certainly unique, it was warm and not too sweet as per request. A very cozy meal, accompanied with refreshingly hot cup of mint tea.

    Recently tried Levantine - off the Laguna resort. Hands down some of the best Middle Eastern food I’ve tried! We ordered the coriander & potato starter and the mixed grill to share for two people. It was more than enough food for us and everything had so much flavour and richness. The food is very authentic and the meat definitely tastes fresh. We also sampled the baklava options which were sublime. Will definitely be returning here during my stay in Phuket and I hope that more people visit. Will be recommending this restaurant to my friends & family as it was fantastic food 10/10.

    One of the best foods I had in Phuket services is great ambiance is good hygiene is high, if you enter the restaurant and was not greeted by Mr. Amr Said don't be shy to ask for him and say hi Worth coming here

  • 5/5 Chanakarn H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food, loved the red dip, very flavorful. the meat platter is also nice, pork, lamb and chicken are all nice and tender but the beef is very tough. Love the mango smoothie and the tea they serve at the end. Great service

    Nice decor and music, place totally clean, food was pretty good, but a little bit expensive, with a full meal and drink it was like 500 baht.

    (Translated by Google) An interesting institution with Lebanese cuisine. Ordered kebab, small portions. Everything seems to be tasty, but something is missing. (Original) Интересное заведение с ливанской кухней. Заказывали люля-кебаб, порции небольшие. Вроде бы всё вкусно, но чего-то не хватает.

    Love it! Amazing food! Finally got a chance to try Levantine for the first time! The food is just so tasty! We tried many different Mediterranean restaurants in many countries and Levantine is definitely one of the best! Restaurant is very clean and nicely decorated! Not a cheap place but totally worth it! Friendly owner and staff, just be patient when you’re waiting for service as they’re quite busy at dinner time. Order your drink, relax and enjoy the environment!

  • 5/5 Дмитрий �. 2 years ago on Google
    Its amazing cuisine!!! We have never eaten before that cuisine from Lebanon and was surprised that tastes! We ordered mixed grill platter with different meat, lentil soup, falafel and moroccan teapot. All was great. Souses were amazing 😋 We will return back soon!!!

  • 4/5 Aleksandra S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In general, everything was deliciously prepared, clean, pleasant music. But lacked the generosity of the Lebanese portions at that price. A tea kettle, kebab, eggplant caviar, falafel and baklava microportion came out a little more than 1000 baht. (Original) В общем всё вкусно приготовили, чисто, приятная музыка. Но нехватило щедрости Ливанских порций за такую цену. Чайник чая, кебаб, икра из баклажан, фалафель и микропорция пахлавы вышла чуть больше 1000 бат.

  • 5/5 Babyfacekiller 3 years ago on Google
    I'm not a fan of Mediterranean Cuisine, but after eating here, I'm a changed women. A true believer if you will. You all know the saying, "once you go Mediterranean, you don't go back". I love this place just love it. It's great, it's good, it's tasty. You must try the Lentil soup here, it's so delicious!! And my other favorite dishes are Moutabal, Mouhamara, Halloumi Casserole, Arnabeet Makle. Food was so nice, I came back twice!

  • 5/5 Mike R. 3 years ago on Google
    An absolutely amazing meal! People should be driving from all over phuket to eat here. We have eaten at Bangkok's staples for eastern Mediterranean food but they don't compare to how good the food is here!

  • 5/5 Kyle C. 3 years ago on Google
    Awesome food and great service. Our waitress was great and constantly checked to make sure everything was okay. The food was awesome. Being someone who has never really had Lebanese food, this was a fantastic introduction. Can't recommend it enough.

  • 5/5 Alistair 4 years ago on Google
    If you are in the area, I'd recommend as a 'must try'- we are both vegetarians and struggled with choice, leaving absolutely stuffed with delicious food (excellent recommendations!). The owner is genuinely warm and welcoming and offered us a level of hospitality to make us feel like honoured guests! Top marks all around. 👌👌👌

  • 5/5 Joey C. 3 years ago on Google

    Very authentic middle eastern food. The seafood was very fresh and tasty. The meat full of flavor and tender. The pita bread fresh from the oven. Even the salads are full of taste and original like I used to have it in Lebanese restaurant in Dubai. Nice service and decor. Highly recommended.
