About MLLe

MLLe, in Laysen Valley near the Diplomatic Quarter, cooks mostly Lebanese food with subtle twists in a colourful room: tabbouleh with passion fruit, a house om ali and its signature shish tawook. In the cooler months, ask for the large terrace overlooking the sunken garden. It is in the MICHELIN Guide Saudi Arabia 2026.

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with MLLe before you go.
