I’m a regular here, and have been for years. The blonde haired lady is an absolute gem. Very attentive and excellent customer service and food at a reasonable price.

The food here is good. We had the lamb shawarma plate and then a few mezze dishes as well, all to share. The lamb was delicious and really enjoyed the falafel and the baba ganoush. I would definitely eat here again.

A. O.

Falafel is great and delicious, and the services are very satisfying, I would recommend trying it

P. F.

Excellent Palestinian food and just one suggestion: also offer Arabic coffee on your menu and you would have 6 stars.

M. A.

I ordered a plate of chicken shawarma with hummus. The food is delicious and clean, the staff is smiling, the service is fast, and the food is halal.

A. W.

My mom and I ate in here. The restaurant was clean. The waitress was fantastic. The cook came out and asked how our meal was. The food was great, I'd send any friend here in a heartbeat. I had saffron chicken and my mom had schwarma. I've eat lot of middle Eastern food and this was so homey and tasty. Veggies were perfect. Salads were light. Nothing to complain about. It's not a fancy place so if you expect fine china and fancy decor, it's not for you. If you want a tasty meal for a good price and great staff, stop in. Great bang for your buck, it was also very big!

D. S.

Food ok....take your time....may take a while

Doesn’t draw you in on looks but we keep coming back for the delicious, quick and fresh food. There is a fab selection of vegetarian food and it’s excellent value. I love eating food I can’t replicate at home and I could never achieve the flavours served here. Not to be missed!

I went to this place and bought a halloumi wrap. It didn't disappoint so much so I had to go back for lunch the next day for a chicken wrap. Again the wrap was lovely. On top of that the staff serve with a smile and were very helpful and polite, I cannot fault the service. The cafe looks very clean as well.

E. I.

The food is great here. The place is not great to go into with the child, as space is very limited. Payment is cash only, there is an ATM nearby. This is the part I didn't like, not sure why they do that. Also I never got a receipt, I ve eaten there few times. Maybe they're evading tax or something (just guessing). Whatever they're doing it's their problem, the food is really good and it's worthwhile to visit.

R. m.

just had a shawerma there was great!!

Have been there yesterday for lunch (16/02/2019). The food was really nice. Nothing in here is made from cans or frozen boxes (like others). Everything is prepared fresh and therefore you need to wait for your order a bit. We tried 4 different dishes and all was very taste and quite big portions! For 2 starter, 2 main and 2 drinks we ended up paying £28, which isn't bad at all! Their turkish coffee is also very nice and tastes 100 times better than low quality chain-coffees (e.g. starbucks, costa, etc). The service was also brilliant, very kind, chatty and attentive. Very rare to find such an employee. Please keep her. Minor points to improve: - portions are a bit too big and it's hard to have a starter and a main at the same time. If you reduce the portion sizes to 2/3rd and also the cost a bit, people may end up buying more starters. - the beans had a bit too much olive oil, which isn't a problem for me, but i know may annoy some people. Otherwise great little place and great location, we'll definitely be back for more!

S. M.

Great Shawarma place.. Highly recommended

E. J. C.

Amazing wee place, great for a non meat meal. Also good for meat as well! Good choice. The only thing is they keep their desserts in a cooling fridge which I think makes them dry out. But that is the only down side to this place. Great service as well. Definitely one to check out if you are a foodie.

D. W. B.

Well This is the best place to eat in Belfast and moreover Halal...What else u need.The food quality is superb, food tasted delicious,Portions are quite generous and more over fresh & warm.The food tasted so good that my hubby & bro decided not to take the risk of eating at any other place as on 1st day our choice of restaurant went wrong so we went back to back yesterday & today.These guys are planning even to get lunch packed for tomorrow when we are leaving.Hummous was v.fresh and tasted excellent. We ordered the mint tea on both the days as well.It was excellent .The staff is v.welcoming, friendly and well behaved.So it's a must try place if u love Lebanese or turkish food.

Y. A.

I ordered Shawrma lamb plate and it wasn't what I expected but later on I found tasty and very good, normally I'm not giving 5/5 starts to restaurants but that deserve, the place from inside tidy and clean, casher was friendly also, the thing I don't like that we can see the cocker coked the food and that in my opinion not that much looks

e. o.

Amazing service, I was waited by an amazing waitresses called 'Victoria, she was so fast and brilliant, had an amazing smile. The food was equally class. Would definitely be coming back soon.

B. B.

Love this place! Excellent traditional food at a reasonable price. The lady who works there is super friendly and very welcoming. Will definitely be back

Delicious Falafel wrap, good value. But sadly the waitress was not enjoying herself at all, she seemed annoyed by the guests. Still, the food was really good.

M. R.

AMAZING FOOD! Literally the nicest people ever serving the best food ever for literally the best prices. The falafel wrap is my favourite and the sweet potato fries are a MUST! Don’t debate going here, just GO, cuz u won’t regret it!

B. B.

I have eaten here a few times and today had the best falafel wrap of my life for only £3! Was delicious and a HUGE portion (i was shocked) The lady who served me was a pleasure :) 10/10

G. H.

The food in this little restaurant is beautiful. The staff are very easy going and friendly, but the food! Oh my! Try it you won't regret it.

m. k.

I was a walk in this evening. Got seated immediately and served very quickly afterwards. Shawarma and coffee are great. Good price. Will certainly be back.

N. A.

Great place, genuine falafel with mezza. Very relaxed atmosphere and the price is right. Will certainly recommend the Palestinian falafel platter. New update: visited again recently and the food quality wasn’t as good as my previous visit neither was the service . It seems hit and miss 🤔 Stars reduced from 5 stars to 3 stars

L. J.

Love this place. Sometimes the service isn't the quickest and a few of the seats leave a lot to be desired, the food more than makes up for it - very, very good value for money as well - full plate of falafel and salad for £5? Amzing, generally try and go here once a week!

T. G.

Hands down one of thr best Nepal restaurant around town! Try the curry chicken for sure, you won't be disappointed. Clean facility, friendly staff and relaxingly ambient!

A. D.

Ordered last night and ordered again this eve. Very good food and well priced. Hope they add foul medames to the menu at some point!

S. B.

First time time in ireland kind of during covid with my cousin came to buy a car and take it back to london, only halal place around but not so good

H. A. E. A.

This restaurant serves Arabian and Halal food. There are sandwiches, plates and tagines. It serves vegetarian, chicken and meat as well. It is delicious especially the meat ball tagine and the shish tawuok plate. The dessert is also Arabian like Balava and Konafa. They also serve hot drinks like tea, herbal tea and others.Cold drinks like Coke are also available.

Wide range of north African fare. Early in the week, all of the starters might not be available.

J. W.

Update 2022: Still great North African, Middle-Eastern and Mediterranean food. As before, consistently good, even 5 years later - where can that be said in Belfast? The baklava is amazing. The staff are super friendly. No longer cash only. Card is certainly accepted. Great fresh food with vegetarian options. Cash only.
