Li Beirut

Camden CountyMiddle Eastern, BYOB, Halal, Mediterranean$$

Genial host and owner Tony Massoud works every table in Li Beirut's breezy dining room while wife Patricia Massoud cooks the cuisine of her youth at their bustling Lebanese BYOB on the ground floor of a century-old house in Collingswood. It’s impossible to order incorrectly here, no matter what’s in the colorful ceramic bowls of mezze or on the platters of charcoal-grilled dishes — but you’d be ordering especially right if you wind up with the lamb chops or kafta kebab sausages. Or, instead of having to choose at all, you could just get the Taste of Lebanon, a prix-fixe extravaganza that allows you to run the menu and enjoy one of the best values in the region.
