The Partners 

Roger & Ziad Estephan Grew up in Lebanon, ambitious to continue higher education in the United States. Shortly thereafter, the brothers received Engineering Degrees from Louisiana State University, financing their education by working at five star hotels in New Orleans. They grew a love for the culture surrounding restaurant hospitality. In 2001 they opened Byblos to spread old family tradition. Originally a place for Lebanese classics. They have evolved into a multi-cultural menu with a taste of Mediterranean and Italian.
