Lebanese Nights on Badenerstrasse (With a Side of Dance)
Restaurant Le Cèdre – Badenerstrasse is a Lebanese restaurant located in Langstrasse, Zürich. Come for the warm, owner-led hospitality and stay for the energy—on Fridays and Saturdays, there’s even a lively dance show that turns dinner into a proper night out.
The food is the real draw: beautifully plated, authentic Lebanese flavours that shine best when you share. Their spread of seven small plates is the move—think creamy dips, fragrant grilled bites, and bright, herby salads that keep your fork busy. Add a glass of fresh pomegranate juice and you’ve got that sweet-tart kick that cuts through richer dishes perfectly. The dining room feels spacious and atmospheric—more “evening escape” than cramped city stop.
Price-wise, it sits in the premium range, and portions are fair rather than huge. But you’re paying for craft, consistency, and service that actually feels personal—no rushed tourist-trap vibes, just a place that takes pride in feeding you well.
Insider tip: Book for 8 pm on a Friday, order the Lebanese mezze to share, and arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle in before the show. Go hungry, leave happy.

in the last weekExcellent experience as always. However, the taste of certain dishes sometimes varies due to slightly too many or too few spices/ingredients. Never disappointing, though!

2 weeks agoThe ambiance was lovely. The food was very good. The service, however, wasn't quite up to par. They didn't even ask if we wanted another drink and seemed rather unmotivated. Oh well, I don't need to go back. I've already tried it.
