Vert Olive, Lebanese restaurant in Strasbourg, France
Vert Olive is a Lebanese restaurant in Strasbourg, France, located at 3 Rue de la Brigade Alsace-Lorraine. The room has a bright green wall, chairs in pink and green, and soft lighting, with paintings that show Lebanese scenes.
The restaurant has been open since 2007, bringing Lebanese cooking to the Krutenau district. Over time it has kept a menu built around mezze, grilled meats and desserts from Beirut and beyond.
Mezze are served as a collection of small plates for sharing, which reflects a common way of eating in Lebanon. Diners often order several at once and pass them around the table, turning a meal into a long conversation.
Reserving a table ahead is a good idea, especially on busy evenings, since seating fills up quickly. The staff speak several languages and can explain dishes if you are unsure what to order.
A large back room decorated with Lebanese-style paintings can be reserved for private events. Many first-time visitors do not know it exists until they see a family celebration happening there.
