Alwaha Lebanese Restaurant is a family-run dining room at 75 Westbourne Grove in London. Its relaxed, elegant setting reflects the idea behind the name, which means oasis, and provides a comfortable backdrop for both a quiet meal and a larger gathering.
Freshly prepared mezze offers a natural way into the menu, with dips, salads, pastries and vegetable dishes suited to sharing. Charcoal-grilled meat, fish and Lebanese specialities provide more substantial courses. Quail and several raw lamb preparations illustrate the breadth of the traditional selection.
The cooking uses herbs, warm spices, lemon, garlic, olive oil and careful grilling to create contrast across the table. Vegetarian dishes such as lentil and bulgur preparations sit comfortably alongside the meat-led choices, allowing mixed groups to order widely rather than rely on a single alternative.
Wine, beer and a full bar accompany the food, while events and catering are available for private occasions. Delivery and takeaway sit alongside the dine-in service rather than replacing it. Guests with allergies or dietary requirements should inform their server, as the kitchen handles all major allergens.
Address: 75 Westbourne Grove, London W2 4UL, England
