Takeout
Cozy Lebanese spot in Gràcia delivering flavorful classics and warm hospitality; mostly excellent experiences with a few isolated quality and cleanliness complaints to note.
Petit libanes delivers exceptional Lebanese cooking with standout hummus, falafel, and shawarma that draws diners across Barcelona, paired with genuinely warm and attentive service. The generally reliable execution and generous portions at fair prices make it competitive with the area's better neighborhood restaurants, though the modest, compact setting and isolated hygiene incidents prevent grade A territory.
A snug Gràcia nook where the grill sizzles and plates land fast, Petit libanes feels warm and welcoming. Guests describe staff who make them feel at home—"they looked after us quickly"—and a room that is small and cozy rather than flashy. Most visits read like happy discoveries after Park Güell, with repeats from people chasing great hummus and shawarma. The cooking leans classic Lebanese: creamy hummus, crisp falafel, juicy tawook, and a mixed grill that satisfies hungry diners. Portions are generous and prices fair for the quality. A few reports flag chewy beef on occasion and one off-tasting dessert, while two mid-2025 complaints cite a hygiene incident—serious but not echoed in recent posts. Families do well here. Portions are shareable, sandwiches are kid-approachable, and the fun Lebanese fries sandwich can win over picky eaters. There is no kids menu noted, but straightforward plates and wraps make it easy for families. Space is tight, so strollers and large groups may find it snug.
