Our Story

Founded by the Chakra family in 2004, Em Sherif began as a vision to share authentic Lebanese hospitality with the world.

What started in a modest space in Ashrafieh has grown into one of Lebanon's most beloved dining institutions. Our name — "Em Sherif" — honors the family matriarch whose recipes and hospitality philosophy guide everything we do.

Every dish on our menu carries generations of culinary wisdom. We source ingredients from trusted local farmers and producers, ensuring each plate reflects the true flavors of Lebanon — from the olive groves of the North to the vineyards of the Bekaa Valley.

Today, with four locations across Beirut, we remain committed to the same principles: uncompromising quality, genuine warmth, and the belief that a meal shared is a memory made.
