Al-Shami has provided Lebanese food and hospitality in Oxford since 1988. It may have been the first Lebanese restaurant in the UK outside London, and Al-Shami has certainly contributed to the growing awareness of Lebanese food in this country. We have many long-established regular customers, some of whom travel long distances to enjoy our food. The restaurant is a popular choice for party bookings and we cater for a lot of private functions, in the restaurant and elsewhere. Al-Shami is owned and managed by the Mahfouz family. It is our only restaurant and we have no connection with any other Lebanese restaurant.
