Culinary art has reached new heights at Salmontini, the restaurant that relocated from downtown Beirut to the posh Achrafieh area.

As the name implies, Salmontini is the salmon abode where you can set your taste buds a mouthwatering gastronomic challenge.

Opened in 2000, Salmontini is the brainchild of restaurateur Joe Bassili and entrepreneur Hussni Ajlani. They blended their vision and business wit to bring forth a unique fare dedicated to salmon aficionados. Their efforts paid off, and the restaurant has been amassing rave reviews since and building up devotees.

Set in a sumptuous Art Deco building, Salmontini Beirut features a stunning interior to complement the impressive exterior.

Large paintings bringing spectacular art into focus deck the restaurant’s walls and instantly take hold of your attention.

You will feel pampered in the special surroundings, marked by a chic décor in a welcoming purple hue that can instill peace and tranquility yet stimulate the appetite.

Whether coming from the far coasts of the Pacific or the nearest ones of the Atlantic, salmon finds its harbor at Salmontini.

It is then smoked according to traditional processes in the restaurant’s smokehouse in the Lebanese mountains, where the clean air provides the ideal atmosphere for smoking salmon.

Whether fresh, smoked, as a pâté, or in a salad, Salmontini will bring another dimension to your enjoyment of this delectable fish.

But salmon is not the only treat because you can savor an array of best-loved international and French dishes accompanied with a rare and vintage wine collection.

With its tranquil location and impeccable salmon produce, Salmontini should be earmarked in your culinary diary.
