Lavishly elegant, this restaurant is located in the ornate Bishop's House. The Gothic building, built in Victorian times, is an oddly fitting place for Lebanese dining. In a city with so many Middle Eastern restaurants that you might be hard pressed to visit one more than once, Al-Amir will still keep you coming back. Start your meal with Lebanese beer and lentil soup and end it with baklava. As for what comes in between, try the Dujaj Musahab-grilled chicken breast with a lemon-olive oil marinade. A full bar is available.
