Royal Lebanese is the first restaurant that comes to my mind.

Address: 187, Sarat Bose Road, Opposite Deshopriya Park, Kolkata.

Located in the busy street of Sarat Bose Road, this food hub is sure to melt your senses even as you just pass by. It offers exclusive Lebanese food. It is primarily a take-away joint but seating arrangements are also available. The menu offers Lebanese sumptous items. The menu also offers few vegeterian items like falafel sandwich.

The only drawback is that it offers very few desserts and hence you have to leave without satisfying your sweet buds. Prices start at Rs.100.

Go Lebanese is situated very near to Royal Lebanese and is a very popular joint amongst the youth.

This is a preferable place for vegetarians as it has it has a large number items to offer for them. The place is quaint, small and has a regular following.

But, this joint too has few offers very few dessert options.

I cannot miss out on this name, though its a rather new joint. It has special tricks up its sleeves.

Address: shop 25, Mandeville Gardens, Near Thai Consulate, Ballygunge, Kolkata.

As I have mentioned earlier, this is not strictly a Lebanese restaurant, but a portion of their menu is dedicated to this authentic cuisine. They offer a very small range of items of Lebanese cuisine coupled with Continental and Italian. This tiny hub is much sought after by the youth for its central location and delicious food.

Lebanese food starts at Rs. 70. The best part of this small restaurant is the combo packs they offers which are pocket friendly and best for treating your friends.

Although this is not a proper seating restaurant, I could not refrain myself from inserting the name because of its delicious food offering.
