Halal restaurant with 100% Halal food with Arabs and Egyptian tastes herein VietNam! SubhanAllah

Today I visited this place for the first time. Two years ago I ordered delivery and I thought it is the same. But today it was a huge disappointment. My friend advised me to order shawarma with beef extra, she said it's perfect. She said that it's not spicy. But I have a real problem with spicy food. My stomach explodes and have heavy stomachache because of it. That's why I asked waitress that I need not spicy one. No chilli, no pepper, nothing. As always in Vietnam she said okok. I could eat only a half of it. My mouth was burning and I even couldn't taste the meat. It was not delicious at all. Small size, very spicy beef inside, little tomatoes and onion, pinch of potato. We were waiting for our order about 20 minutes. We were alone there, but one more person. After I asked them why it's so spicy, waitress said she told chef not to make it spicy. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But it was. So she asked if I want another one, but I said that I don't have time for waiting a new one. They even didn't give me a discount, but they saw that I didn't eat it, even a half. But the tea with milk was adorable. And when i asked for the bill and put money inside and brought them to the bar, they even didn't look at it, so I was waiting and waiting for my change. Then I came to the cashier and asked for it. Yes. They are just little nothings of life. But I have no wish to come back 😐 bad service, bad food.

The owner was polite and tentative. Everything was cooked very well. Decent pricing. Extremely hard to get to due to road renovations, no parking nearby. We asked for water with lemon juice and mint and they threw the entire lemon with the rind into the blender. We asked for a replacement because the rind made it un-drinkable but received the same thing twice.

I've been a regular at Mawlana since it's opening. It's been a consistent choice for my dining needs as usually eat only Halal food. The ambiance is pleasant and calm, and the menu offers a decent variety of Egyptian dishes. While it may not be a standout in terms of culinary innovation, it's a reliable spot for a satisfying meal. The service is really good, and the prices are reasonable for what you get. Overall, it's a dependable option for those looking to enjoy Egyptian cuisine without any major surprises. Definitely recommended. P.S. The owner is very chill btw.

A new Egyptian restaurant in town with variety of Egyptian and middle eastern dishes. My personal favorite was kochari and alexandrian kebda. This black liver dish is seasoned soooo delicious 😍

Beautiful place, amazing food and most importantly, kindest people working there. BarakAllahu Fikum🤲

A great little restaurant in Hanoi for a taste of Egypt! The space is great, with Egyptian music playing on the speakers and art depicting ancient Egyptian Pharaohs and modern Pharaohs (Mo Salah) on the walls. The staff are welcoming, service is quick and the food was fresh and tasty. The koshary is a must have for those wanting to try out a staple Egyptian dish! Make sure to ask for extra red sauce.

I recently dined at the Arabic Egyptian restaurant in Hanoi and was thrilled to have found a gem that serves delicious Arabic cuisine. The food was truly amazing, with authentic flavors that transported me to the heart of Egypt. The staff's kindness added to the overall delightful experience, and the restaurant's ambiance was both nice and neat, creating a comfortable atmosphere. I highly recommend this spot for anyone craving a taste of Egypt in Hanoi.

Really great ! Should come if you want to find a Real Halal Food in Hanoi

Just ate koshari and deserts and it was super great. The service was also great and welcome you with a smile. It was pretty clean too.

A delicious middle-eastern food, with fresh ingredients and more important it is on of HALAL food you can found in Hanoi, Vietnam l, .... waiiiit, if you're fans of M. Salah, soccer player's, you should try to take some photos inside the restaurant 😁, cheers...

Ambiance is casual, but clean and feels genuinely aligned to the Egyptian origins of the food. Service is nice and timely, organised and polite, especially for a casual place. Ground floor has around 6 tables. The food was tasty, hot for cooked foods. Notably the salad items were crunchy and fresh. The accompanying sauses were tasty and seemed made on premise. Bread is delicious and fresh. The beef was tender in the kebab. Priced reasonably for the food quality and ambiance, definitely a good place to try for a change or perhaps the only Egyptian in Hanoi (not sure on this point)

Nice Eat in joint with an open courtyard in the back. Middle eastern food and halal meat

After waiting 1 hour for our food to be served, we expected something special; it turned out that the staff just forgot about our order. Food was served cold and totally tasteless. The meat on the meat platter was plain and bland to say the least, seemingly not even marinated. Drinks were very bland and boring too. Staff seemed uninterested in how we felt about the food, guy serving was sitting on his phone. Nice decorations, but disappointed about the food. Not a good experience, will not be coming again.

Food was amazing at MAWLANA HALAL. We had : beef pies, kabab. So full🤣 Highly recommended it.❤️

Very delicious food , clean and convenient place, very fast and great service. Recommend you to try

I’m a vegetarian and have been ordering the falafel wrap most days on Grab and the food is so fresh and tastes healthy and homemade. I have had veggie wraps from many places and this is the best. Also good portion size. Highly recommend. The delivery time is always very quick.

Food was nice, a bit cold since they got a lot of guests at the time. They also brought the wrong order to us. I was so hoping for a good Mediterranean/ Arab food, so if they can improve on the details, it’d be perfect.

Good Egyptian and Arabic food, beautiful interior paintings on walls, Arabic music and friendly staff

Waited for more than an hour for tasteless food. Definitely a never again experience. Staff weren't sorry at all! It was as if to wait for an hour for bland and cold food is okay. When we got the bill and told them that we didn't get the rice, the guy was acting like we were lying 🤨 Like seriously! 😒 Totally disappointing, would not reccommend.

Interesting dine in place, thanks for the recommendation of the owner we have lamb cooked with rice and its really tasty! Not really a fan of french fries but other than that its a good experience. Nice decor.

So delicious food really love it. And owner also gentle . Feel good and eat well

I haven't visited the restaurant yet, but I've been ordering the food on Grab Delivery, and I love it! The falafel wrap is great and so generously sized for the price! Definitely will order again 😍

I was trying Egyptian Cuisine for the first time and hence was bit skeptical about our decision however the first bite into the food made us realize that we made a correct choice. Nice music, tasty food, great hospitality and as a pet parent an added advantage for us was that they allowed pet as well (of course you need to ensure sanity of the place and your pet should not bother other guests). In our case, brownie is well behaved and hence we had a nice evening with great food. Owner/Manager and the entire staff was helpful and welcoming. Thank you Al Sultan team.

Absolutely delicious! Nice place and helpful staff

Food is nice. Service is superb too ❤️

I only came here once but I was a little disappointed with the hummus & falafel. I did have high expectations though, maybe that was the problem 😅 Hummus & falafel tasted kind of bland, pita bread was fine. My husband enjoyed his food and my young daughter really liked the soup. Would come back again but I'm not in a hurry.

The food was perfect. We ate here 3times 👍 The bean wrap is my favourite

Honestly I don’t even know where to begin, our dining experience here was a mess from start to finish. To begin, the server took our orders, left us for 20 minutes, then came back to ask us what we had ordered. 20 minutes waiting and they hadn’t even started making the food (mind you there were only 2 other occupied tables in the restaurant). After confirming, the server comes out with my food about 30 minutes after we first sat down, and brings my partner the wrong dish (despite having reconfirmed it). Taking the dish back, he comes back to our table about 10 minutes later to confirm (for a second time) what my boyfriend had ordered, and points to the dish on the menu he had just accidentally brought us. After confirming AGAIN, 5 minutes or so pass and then another staff member comes out to confirm what we’d ordered, and he was STILL under the impression that it was the incorrect dish that we had ordered. After 4 times confirming that we’d ordered a sandwich and not the fatteh, my boyfriend finally got his food. At this point my food is ice cold from the ridiculously powerful AC in the restaurant. To top it all off, they then tried to charge me for the incorrect dish instead of the correct one, which was half the price. I can honestly not remember a more lacklustre experience in a restaurant. It’s a complete breakdown in communication between the staff, the food is meh at best, and the atmosphere is incredibly tacky. I wouldn’t set foot in this restaurant again if I were paid to.

i started writing a long review. lets just say that there's a lot to be desired... bland food, poor wait staff... only good thing was a cool mural on the walls.

People looking for Arabic taste 👍 Staff very friendly

So nice, the atmosphere is so cozy, especially at the night, food is 10000/10, a lot of Arabic foods!!!!!

Always vibing with the legit Arabian feast at Mawlana Resturant this spot is my perpetual haunt for that real Middle Eastern flavor explosion. From mouthwatering dishes to an effortlessly cool ambiance, it's the ultimate chill spot. Whether you're an Arabian cuisine enthusiast or just curious, this place brings the cool factor to authentic dining experiences. Get ready to spice up your taste buds and vibe! Unforgettably experience here everyday! They have new creative dish daily! Yummy 🤤 another meaning of “WOW”

We arrived at Iftar time. Hospitable owner and staff. Everything is very clean and tidy. Yes, very tasty. I recommend to everyone. We really enjoyed. While we are in Hanoi, we will come regularly. May the Almighty bless the owner of the establishment.
