We've been ordering food from here for a while now. We love the chicken shawarma because of the sauce and the chicken that us seasoned well. There are a lot of stores selling shawarma but this is to our taste. We decided to go for a visit and dine in. The restaurant is quite small but comfortable enough. Staff service was okay but we did have to wait for a bit for the order to be ready. But it was worth it because the mandy chicken was also good. If you're dining in, I recommend you to try the bread. It was crispy on the sides and really soft. Tasted so good when you eat it while it's hot. Recommended if you're looking for good Arab food.

Came here on a whim to tapau, and I was so surprised how good the food is considering the price is very reasonable compared to its other competitors. I ordered personal Mandy Chicken Rice (got a quarter chicken portion) for RM 13.90, and it did not disappoint. The portion is generous, the chicken and rice actually tasted well-smoked (as it should be), the salsa is thick and balanced with the hint of spiciness & tomato umami, the soup is hearty and not bland, even the presentation of the meal is so thoughtfully done by the kitchen team, even though it was just for takeaway. The other thing I ordered was the hummus, and they included a bread with it (total RM 8). It's a decent hummus, with I think like dried rose petal flakes as garnish? Again, love the presentation of everything they served here. On weekdays 12-2.30pm (if I'm mistaken), you can enjoy their value lunch set. The mandy chicken rice will then be priced at only RM 12.90 with drinks included. As for the rest of the menu, you can browse through the pictures of the menu I've included here. Note: they don't accept card payments here, only QR and cash are acceptable. 10/10 definitely will come here again, this time it's to try out their grilled dishes and shawarma.

Decent portion for the price. I found the Sanuna chicken to be quite salty. The Shawarma is really good though, the bread is super soft, but it doesn't taste like those traditionally made shawarma and more like shawarma with a twist. We got our food super quickly and fresh Atmosphere wise it's just like your typical Arabic joint, nothing stood out

Came here on 12/11/25 celebrate my mother birthday. All the food was very tasty especially the Nasi Arab, musalah bread fashah and garlic ( tho the fashah quite salty that I combine it with garlic sauce but the bread is godly 1000/10 ) , shawarma chicken (10/10), orange juice ( quite sweet so order another jug of water), mix appetizer (not quite a fan of the taste culturally) and kunafa cheese (the overall taste is not too sweet as others so good for my diet). For the price offered here, the quality of it is too good to be refused. DISCLAIMER: During my visit, there are only 2 family of 7 so might expect some longer waiting time especially for shawarma and kunafa. So if you are reading this early, please try it as early as possible, as the shop is new and not viral yet.
