“In 1979, the Abi-Najm family became Arlington restaurant owners when they opened Lebanese Taverna. Known for its welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere as much as its authentic Lebanese cuisine, Lebanese Taverna holds a special place in the community after 46 years in business. Today, Lebanese Taverna is run by the five Abi-Najm siblings and has over a dozen locations in the DMV, including six full-service restaurants, seven fast-casual eateries, and the flagship Lebanese market in Arlington. It’s been featured in Northern Virginia Magazine multiple times, including a nod for a RAMMY Award nomination.” TasteofNOVA
