    Had the most wonderful lunch at Al-Amar Lebanese Cuisine Bangladesh ! The food was just amazing! So flavourful and delicious. ⚜️Hummus bil lahme [price: 685/-]. This is basically hummus topped with sautéed beef cubes! Pure bliss. Served with Lebanese bread. ⚜️standard mixed grill [price: 2200/-]. This platter includes lahem mechwe kabab (lamb), chicken tawouk, chipotle tikka kabab, chicken kafta, lamb kafta . Served with Lebanese bread Must must try their food if you like hummus or kababs! I’ll definitely visit again

    After coming from the Middle East I believe this Lebanese Cuisine has kept its value up to the mark as per tastes and presentation. People should try this food. The environment along with food looks pretty awesome.

    A great place to feast for carnivores! Hands down some of the best fatty, juicy kebabs I've ever had. The place also has a neat decor and seating arrangement. For a squad of four, I suggest going for the Al-Amar Mixed Grill Platter (5,800 bdt) and an order of Hummus. It has a little bit of everything, chicken, beef, lamb, prawn etc.

    This place offers the best value for money Iftar platter in Dhaka City. I really liked their food. All of the food in the platter were really good except the Creamy chicken. The sauce was too thick and the chicken was dry inside. The staffs were extremely professional. We had to reserve beforehand during iftar. The restauramt has a beautiful ambience and have high ceiling windows which allows natural light to pass through. Wouuld visit the place again but only during Ramadan.

    Been on this place for Iftar in this Ramadan. Simply the taste of the food was Marvelous. Dropping a short review. Food Quantity : 10/10 Price : 8/10 Taste : 9/10 Environment : 9/10 Service : 10/10. The respected waiters were so polite and humble 💜 If you live around Gulshan, I highly recommend you to go there!

    Nice place to have Lebanese foods. I loved their environment. Food taste is too good. Their service and behavior is also good. Nice place for family dinners or lunch. Price is expensive but you have to pay high price for quality foods, environment and services.

    Loved the Service, They took the reservations of 15 men without asking for any advance payment, found the ambience so good and loved the Iftar Platter It was more than enough for one person at around 850 BDT! A recommended place for dining in with Wife, Family, Colleagues or Friends!

    It is undeniable that the taste of this place is through the roof. I have thoroughly enjoyed every bites of it. The décor is very cozy and warm. The price is a bit expensive but there is no compromise in quality so it's worth every buck. Definitely deserves a second visit.

    Had a great time here. The food was delicious and the price range was fair. The service was swift and informative, while also offering recommendations without being intrusive. The atmosphere was pleasant with some music in the background. I recommend a window seat sooooo you can see the bustle below. If you are after some tasty Lebanese fare, this place will not miss.

    If you are craving for some Arab Cusine, head directly to Al-Amar. Their Chicken Kabsa is so good. They serve one of the best Mandi Rice/ Lamb with various types of sides. Also they have other Kebabs on the menu. Garlic sauce was really good. Services are perfect. Friends & Family can enjoy a good time With a great ambiance & City View.

    For some reason I had a bad tummy ache the next after eating here. There were a lot of mosquitoes here as well. It's very overpriced for its quantity and quality. Not as expected. Just took one dish pic. Everything else was not worth taking.

  • 5/5 Abdul Sami S. 7 months ago on Google • 54 reviews
    If you are craving for some Arab Cusine, head directly to Al-Amar. Its pricey but worth every peny. I tried their Chicken Kabsa, which was close to what I had when I was in Saudi Arabia. Do give it a try.

    Highly recommend for their kabab and Lebanese items. I have found them consistent in terms of their food quality. They are well decorated having a good ambient. However if the place is crowded you might feel disturbed in your dinning experience. Highly recommended.

    The food was delicious. Food quantity is also good to compare with the price. As I am bengali I prefer if the kebab was little bit spicy it will be much more delicious for me.

    We've had the mushroom cream soup, basmati mandi rice with lamb, moali, Set Menu 1, kabab platter, sweet labang, lemonade, brownie cheesecake, hummus, and baklava! Mushroom cream soup: good number of mushroom chunks; warm, buttery, a little thick, and creamy. Mandi rice with lamb: two lamb pieces including a leg piece; vibrant rice; succulent and soft lamb, falling off the bone; served with a little chutney and cucumber; some more rice and some sides would've made this a meal. Moali: solid crust; a milky liquid interior; tastes like sweets drenched in kheer with different kinds of nuts; a little too sweet for me. Set Menu 01: lots of unique items including grilled chicken, chicken kabab, and hummus; must-try; best item for singles. 2:1 Kabab platter: five different kinds of kabab, including red-meat and chicken kababs; served with three kinds of sauce and dip. The drinks were refreshing. Brownie cheesecake: topped with thick chocolate sauce; spoon-licking good; must-try. Hummus: dip with perfectly fluffy flatbread; endless pleasure; healthy meal; must try! Baklava: too syrupy; damp; Istanbul Restaurant Dhaka does it better, right around the corner. Service was super fast. The place was amazingly decorated, and the servers were helpful. Singles should come early for the set menus and couples in the evening to get a taste of authentic Lebanese cuisine.

    al amar Lebanese cuisine by name. but they barely have any Lebanese authentic dish. shawarma is a bunch of sauted chivken cubes. mandi rice is good. but nothing else. disappointed .

  • 4/5 Riyaad J. 1 year ago on Google • 63 reviews
    The best Lebanese cuisine in Dhaka. Just loved their food. The Shawarma (beef/chicken) both r fantastic. Taste 9/10. I ordered Shawarma, Laham Mandi and khabsa and Hummus wch r way better than any other restaurants. It's authentic and tasty. The meat r just so juicy and tender, I think everyone will like it. Though everyone has different taste buds but if anyone like Arabic food they should atleast give it a try and go there and taste their food. And I feel tht the price r also reasonable rather than other restaurants who serve the same dish. So must go tupe restaurant for me. So for me it's 9.5/10. .5% is not there bcz they have parking issues a little bit.

    I just love this place. Best Place to have a perfect hummus with pita bread. They serve one of the best Mandi Rice/ Lamb with various types of sides. Also they have other Kababs on the menu. Garlic sauce was really good. Services are perfect. Friends & Family can enjoy a good time With a great ambiance & City View.

    Al-amar is my favorite restaurant in Dhaka. If you love Lebanese cuisine and you're in Dhaka, then this is a must visit place. They have good ambience,good service and good food. Their hummus is the one food item which I never miss to order. I tried Laban which was not so good. Their sauces are great and the Pita bread. Next time If I visit the place I'll try grilled fishes to see how does that taste. Their prawn fry was average but Kebab and shwarmas were 20/10 ♥ You can see the texture of the food here. I can't stop giving compliments to them. Haha!

    Best arab food I have ever tasted. Try the big platter (4-5 person) and Hummus. Tastes great!

    Price is getting higher and higher and bit extreme, food is good as always but quantity and price doesn't match. It will burn your pocket.

  • 5/5 Sharif Newaz C. 8 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Nayeem Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic! Can’t believe there’s legit Lebanese food in Dhaka now Definitely try the meat hummus and the fattoush salad, as well as their kebab platters. Their lamb shank is also delicious, plus fall off the bone soft. This place is a must try

    Stopped by at the very last moment for some iftar and surprisingly it was very crowded and reservation is a must. otherwise from the taste of the food to the atmosphere it was flawless. upon entering, I somehow got a Hookah Lounge Vibe

    One of the best Lebanese restaurant

  • 4/5 Mr S. 2 years ago on Google
    It’s a good place with a excellent interior! They have plenty of sitting arrangements. You need to press 6 on the lift and it will directly take you inside the restaurant. Tho I have tried their few items, all were good specially their sauces! Price is reasonably high with 10% of Service charge plus 10% VAT! so it’s huge.

  • 3/5 Tahsin S. 2 years ago on Google
    Their food got worse!

  • 4/5 Shaishob M. 1 year ago on Google
    Surely one of the best premium kabab place in town. Their lamb kabab is really great and I'll surely order this over and over. Tried their kabsa which was also decent & their hummus was also amazing. Chicken shish tawook was exceptional. The place is really premium and the price is obviously much higher than the usual restaurants. I'll definitely recommend this place only for kababs on especial occasions. The behavior of the staffs were really good & the services were also fast.

    Best Lebanese kebab.

  • 5/5 Edward K. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place. Food was amazing went for a birthday party. Didn't know it was going to be this good. Food was fresh and high quality. The service was overall top tier. Would recommend anyone close to go there for parties. Eagerly waiting for the opportunity to visit again.

  • 4/5 Fatima N. 1 year ago on Google
    It was my 2nd visit here. The Hummus Bairot was really good. The grilled kebab platter was tasty too. Overall it was a good experience. This place is highly recommended if you are an Arab cuisine lover.

  • 4/5 Ahamed Najeeb R. 2 years ago on Google
    We ordered the plain hummus and the grilled kabab platter. For 5 people this was more than enough. If you’re taking kababs separately, I’d suggest staying away from the lamb. Both the hummus and the platter came with a side of pita bread. Overall the food was good.
