Cedar Lebanese Restaurant is a family-run venue at 144 Merton High Street, close to South Wimbledon station. Its 45-seat dining room offers a welcoming setting for lunch, dinner and small celebrations, with collection and local delivery also available.
The menu is rooted in traditional Lebanese cooking and begins with mezze suited to sharing. Hummus, tabbouleh and other cold and hot small plates can be combined into a varied spread, while homemade chilli and garlic sauces add the restaurant’s own finishing touch.
Charcoal-grilled chicken and lamb are central to the larger dishes. The Cedar Mixed Grill brings several meats together, and ready-made mezze combinations help diners sample multiple specialities without selecting every plate individually. All meat and poultry are described by the restaurant as halal.
Baklawa supplies a classic sweet ending, with homemade lemonade among the alcohol-free drinks. Vegetarian choices are well represented through the mezze, and guests with allergies or dietary needs should confirm current ingredients and preparation practices with the team before ordering.
Address: 144 Merton High Street, Colliers Wood, London SW19 1BA, England
