The food is incredible, the service is good, and the atmosphere—you decide who you go with. It's one of the best Arab steaks I've ever had. Without a doubt.

Excellent dishes at a fair price. The staff is very friendly. The shawarma is generous and uses traditional ingredients. The only detail I'd like to mention is the ambiance, which could be improved (furniture that matches the color scheme, etc.). Otherwise, I would definitely return.

For me the best Arabic meat I have ever tried. Very good service and very friendly they even explained to us about the sweets. I've been there twice now and everything is fine.

Excellent customer service. The manager is very friendly. She explains and gives suggestions based on the number of diners, ensuring everyone is satisfied and avoids leaving behind a mess. The seasoning is excellent, highly recommended after visiting the viewpoint of the Sanctuary of the Virgin of Los Remedios.

A place with a peaceful atmosphere and spectacular service. I'm going to go all out for the Arab beef; I can say they're the most delicious Arab tacos I've ever had .

Delicious and at a very good price, great variety of dishes, the meat on their trompo is delicious, their habaneros are spicy, varied desserts, friendly staff with a few tables upstairs, parking can be tricky

It is very well located, it takes about 10 minutes walking from the archaeological zone to the restaurant, they have traditional Lebanese dishes and some Arabic sweets and falafel that you see in the photo. They also have the popular Arabic tacos.
