"Lebanon Grill might just have the quickest service in New Orleans—we ordered, looked up, and our food was there. No matter what you go for, you get assorted pickled peppers, olives, and other vegetables with every plate, and it’s fun to mix those flavors into your meal. We recommend the plate with freshly shaved gyro, salad drizzled with sumac vinaigrette, hummus, and freshly baked pita, along with some Lebanese tea with pine nuts. You’ll see a little bit of everybody here—Downtown employees, tourists, big groups, and solo diners—so it’s naturally a great people-watching spot. Especially because it opens up onto the French Market." - Megan Braden-Perry
