Abdallah's
Over 40 years ago, brothers, Elias and George Abdallah, decided to open the first Lebanese bakery in their own backyard. They wanted to share the richness of their beloved Lebanon by providing the city of Houston with fresh pita bread and deliciously baked goods. Today Abdallahs is one of the most well known and delicious Lebanese restaurant in Houston.
Small Operation
1976Over 40 years ago, frustrated that there was no Lebanese Bread in Houston, brothers, Elias and George Abdallah, decided open the first Lebanese bakery in their own backyard. In 1976, they began with a couple acres of land and a warehouse, and began baking bread. They wanted to share the richness of their beloved Lebanon by providing the city of Houston with fresh pita bread and deliciously baked goods.
The American Dream
1976This “small operation” quickly grew, and they began shipping product all over the United States. You could knock on the front door at any time of the day or night and be greeted by a family member, taken to the warehouse and sold some bread…. No quantity was too little or too large! From then on Abdallah became a household name among the Lebanese immigrant community. Abdallah’s IS the “AMERICAN DREAM” of brothers Elias and George Abdallah.
The First Lebanese Restaurant In Houston
1990In 1990, the operation moved to our current location (3939 Hillcroft Ave.), where the restaurant was added as a bonus. Sharing bread wasn’t enough; being THE FIRST LEBANESE RESTAURANT of our kind in town was the next step. The family worked together to provide the community with Lebanese groceries and food. We have been at our current location since then. Once you come to Abdallah’s, you are FAMILY!

Our Success Story
Delivered To Your Door
Old Country Olive Oil
This olive oil is a product of centuries of love and care. It is cold pressed, unfiltered, pure extra virgin olive oil of the greatest quality nature has to offer. The olives are hand-picked and selected from the Abdallah Family’s groves of Tanbourit, a tiny village in the south of Lebanon, the Land of the Cedars. For centuries, the families of this village have cared for and harvested the olives for consumption, oil, and even soap production for their personal use and livelihood. For Mr. George Abdallah, who immigrated to the United States over 40 years ago, what started out as a few gallons of oil from his family’s groves in Lebanon to his family’s homes in Houston, has turned into an opportunity to share with our clients and friends the best product nature has to offer. Once a year, as soon as the olives are harvested and pressed, we bottle and bring the oil to our store. Hurry in quickly because they FLY off the shelves!
