Massis Lebanese is a modern Lebanese restaurant at 9 Sheldon Square in Paddington Central. Its waterside setting and spacious dining room make it useful for weekday lunches, dinners after work and larger social gatherings in this busy part of west London.
Mezze are central to the menu, bringing together familiar cold dishes, warm pastries, salads and grilled vegetables that can be combined into a meal for the whole table. The sharing format makes it easy to experience several flavours and textures before moving on to larger plates.
Charcoal grilled meat and seafood provide the menu with its more substantial dishes, while traditional rice, vegetables and breads round out the selection. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices are identified, giving mixed groups practical options without losing the character of Lebanese cooking.
Lebanese wines complement the food alongside cocktails, beer and non alcoholic drinks. Weekend brunch adds a livelier daytime format, while regular lunch and dinner service lets guests choose between a quick plate and a longer meal built around shared mezze.
Address: 9 Sheldon Square, Paddington Central, London W2 6HY, England
