Pizzeria Da Marco Beirut

Naples-inspired, Lebanese-made

Najat from Beirut

About me I am a graphic designer and freelancer, passionate about art in general. I grew up drawing and painting and it always has been my way of expression. I love music - you'll never catch me without earphones in my ears. I also love reading and writing: basically, anything that can inspire me and help me escape into my creative head and thoughts is what I look for. Why Beiru...
"You can observe his passion in the way he serves the food with a big smile, and so much love and energy, it’s just wonderfully inspiring!"

A piece of Italy in the Heart of Beirut, Pizzeria Da Marco is a hidden pizza joint, owned by Mark Jibran with the help of his Mother Theresa and the motto “Inspired by Naples, Made in Lebanon”. Serving the most delicious Pizza you’ll ever taste in Beirut, they also make yummy Focaccias and bruschetta’s (Yes they will correct you if you pronounce it wrong), and everything’s made in house from the sauce to the hand-pulled dough, all with fresh ingredients.

The owners are super friendly, you’ll feel like you’re part of the place. When I went there Mark spoke to my friend and me, he told us all about his life and how he got to open this place, he traveled all around Europe, switched between career positions, and even told us about his passion for sports, plus how this very pizzeria was supposed to be his retirement plan, but he decided to start with what he loves to do early on because life’s too short not to enjoy what we do every day. You can observe his passion in the way he serves the food with a big smile, and so much love and energy, it’s just wonderfully inspiring! So head on to Pizzeria Da Marco enjoy the Mouth Watering food and support this small business, because I’m sure it will take a pizza of your heart!!

PS His Pesto De Basilico Pizze and Bresaola Pizze ARE A MUST TRY!

Persian Cup

A Hidden Gem

Their specialty dessert, Persian love cake, is a concoction of cardamon, pistachio, and zest of lemon. It tasted as delicious as it looked.

L'Appartement

Bistro Bar

Make sure to try the beetroot carpaccio and the tomato bruschetta as snacks. Their signature cocktails are delicious and I also fancy their minted lemonade.

Emotions

Pâtisserie & Artisan Glacier

My favorite treat at Emotions is the "chausson au citron" - lemon turnover, which tastes simply yummylicious: not too lemony or sour, not too sweet, not too small.

Meet The Veganz

Vegan "Junk" Food

Make sure to try their Bitchin Friez, they are crunchy and cheesy. And the cheezy bites are scrumptious, just the way I love them. You got it, I am a cheese fan!

Delivery wellness food

I finally ordered the carrot lentil ginger soup, the wild mushrooms toast, and a small-sized Asian crunch salad. Everything smelled delicious and tasted very good.

Karim's Training Facility

Boutique Sports Studio

Karim's Training Facility is located underground and the hanging mirrors make the space look larger than it is. The premises are regularly sanitized, and this is essential for someone like me.
