Mazmez, Lebanese restaurant in the 10th arrondissement, Paris, France
Mazmez is a Lebanese restaurant in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, close to the Canal Saint-Martin. It serves small sharing dishes based on Lebanese recipes, prepared with fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from sustainable farms, with all meats being French, farm-raised, and halal-certified.
Mazmez was founded as a modern concept to reinterpret Lebanese cuisine in Paris through shared small plates. It opened in the 10th arrondissement, a neighborhood long known for its mix of restaurants and bars around the Canal Saint-Martin.
The name Mazmez comes from an Arabic word meaning to savor something slowly. This idea shapes the way food is served, in small shared plates that encourage the table to eat together rather than separately.
The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner, with later hours on Fridays and Saturdays. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends, and can be made online or by phone to avoid waiting.
Although the menu draws on Lebanese tradition, the restaurant also offers vegan and vegetarian options, which is less common among Lebanese restaurants in Paris. This means people with different diets can eat together at the same table without anyone being left out.
