    This is a Syrian restaurant. Food wise pretty similar to Turkish type food. Ambience is good. But that’s about it. Im not sure why people Have give it a rating of 5 or even a 4. The food quantity is extremely small compared to the price. We had dolma (4 pieces) for 1900Ft. That is horrendously expensive even if the the restaurant is in the city. We had horse bean yougurt salad (Bithina) 2750Ft, which was good but once again small for the price. The waiter recommended to get our dishes as a single platter which we did. And id not recommend that, as they decrease the food quantity and didn’t even serve pickles. (Pics attached) The platter included chicken skewers 2 tiny pieces (3750Ft), lamb skewers 4100Ft (over charged as others have recommended they do. ) Chicken wings were 3750Ft. Then I had lamb chops (4 pieces) 7000Ft. Ridiculously expensive. French fries were 450Ft. Drinks were 850Ft. Overall bill 30105Ft. This place is not recommended at all. For This price you can have a very decent meal some where else. Please avoid.

    Because of the current circumstances i had to order and eat this at home but i think this is the best and most authentic shawarma in Budapest

    Wanted to have something different so decided to go to this Syrian restaurant. Food was good, though not a typical restaurant, but ambience was good. Service was good too. Falafel was totally different. We ordered a lot of dishes so we could taste everything.

    Good Syrian cuisine in Budapest near Fashion District. Clean service and friendly team, but they need more experience. The service was slow and food took a while to arrive. The cost is a little bit expensive compared to other places but the it is worth the tast.

    Great indoor and outdoor seating area with authentic halal food right in the heart of central Budapest. Menu has enough variety to suit everyone’s tastes without being complicated. Definitely a much tastier and healthier alternative to having yet another shawarma.

    Nice selection of grilled meats. Portions were decent but could be a little bigger. Good service and lovely outside dining vibes.

    If you like good freshly grilled meat and decent Syrian food, this is a nice place to try out. Our server, Mr Bakka "sorry if I misspelt" (Bobby), was super kind and friendly. He advised the fish dish and it was really good. The kebabs were very tasty too. Portions are decent and their hummus is lovely too.

    Food was good in taste but the quantity and serving was not worth the price. That’s why 3 stars. We ordered three dishes and all were served with same set of salad and that too was very basic. Indoor sitting area is fine and busy. Service is good but the waiter seemes in hurry: they astarted clearing the table when we were eating and were coming again and again to clear it. This made the experience a little uncomfortable.

    Laid back restaurant with lots of potential to be a great spot for nice traditional Syrian food. There was way more staff than customers, so it’s a shame that it took them forever to get our bill after we were ready to go just waiting at our table right in the front inside of the restaurant for maybe 10-15 minutes. They have a large selection of food which is all prepared already with the exception of things like kebab which of course they roast on the spot. The baba ganoush had good flavor, well seasoned, served room temperature. The pita was good and filling and but baklava was so small and unsatisfying. Maybe a 3 x 3 cm square cut into smaller squares, I wish it was a bit softer and room temp instead of cold. The still water here was 1000Ft but I guess that’s to be expected on the “posh” strip of Budapest. I think we would have gotten a bit better service if we had purchased more food, but we were on our way to our next venue and just stopped for the smallest bite to eat. That is no excuse for poor service though.

    Busy outdoor seating on pedestrian street. Had a very tasty Lamb kebab and very delicious mahammara roasted red capsicum dip. The falafel, which weren’t on the menu, were disappointingly tasteless - Rushed impersonal service, but they were pretty busy.

    portions are really small as compared to the price plus don't expect much customer service! You can find better places in Budapest more like a Turkish food

    Seekh Kabobs are delicious, chicken and lamb. Good location as close to fashion district. 3 stars only because portions are ridiculously small as compared to the price plus don't expect much customer service.

  • 4/5 Bhagyashree S. 1 year ago on Google
    Tried Syrian food for the first time. Chicken kebab was delicious but portion too small. Baklava was very dry. Prices are average restaurant prices.

  • 5/5 Mareush M. 4 months ago on Google
    Definitely worth the visit, this is the first time I have tried Syrian food and I would certainly recommend this place. The kunefeh was the best I've tasted in a while.

    Walked by this restaurant and took a look inside and decided to give it a try. Tried the chili chicken kebab and it was delicious. It was spicy and full of flavor. I liked it so much I went back the next day and had the same. The food is mouth-watering and the prices are reasonable. If I lived in the area I would be a regular customer!

    Delicious middle eastern dishes. I’ve been visiting here for a long time. Never bored of eating chicken shish with the special garlic white sauce. Desserts are also yummy. Must visit restaurant in Budapest, if you’re craving for some mouth watering middle eastern plates.
