Labinnah Bistro
LaBinnah Bistro
A 28-seat bistro in an 1870 Victorian house, where a Turkish owner serves Mediterranean dishes. It has long been ranked No. 1 in Hannibal.
The name is “Hannibal” spelled backward. The bistro occupies an 1870 Victorian house on Millionaires' Row and seats only 28. The Turkish owner uses family recipes, with dishes blending Mediterranean, European, and American influences, and makes yogurt in-house. The most praised dishes are Istanbul shrimp, Gemini chicken, and Turkish sizzling beef, Saç Tava. Starters include stuffed grape leaves and a sampler platter, and dessert is baklava with Turkish coffee. Every dish is made to order, so service is slow. With limited seating, reservations are recommended. About US$30–45 per person. Located at 207 N. 5th Street, within walking distance of the Old Town.
