Arabic cuisine in Manchester

“Great authentic Kurdish cuisine. Excellent customer service. Decent prices. Will definitely visit again!”

“The Pride of Bolton, both dining in and take out. Friendly, professional staff , amazing and immaculate place, tasty dishes and music to soothe the soul. Best shaworma in all of Bolton and stylish wrapped.No wonder this restaurant presents in my opinion as one of the best. I was greeted by the owner and served a sweet baclava, a real treat. A fusion between modern and classic turkish-lebanese culinary arts. What an amazing place!Among the few shaworma places that take card payments in Bolton!”

“Awesome place amongst all the disgusting fried chicken shops. Great food , shout out to the lovely young woman waitress she is a great asset. Use it or we are going to lose it. Amazing decour and gifts available too. Great value.”

“Good and fast service, friendly members of staff, plenty of seating available, a wide range of menu items to choose from. It does get busy, was recommend by a few friends to go and try this place and their fatayer, which was decent. Highly recommend this place for people to try out, there is some near by street parking.”

“Great food!! Took a while to be ready because the restaurant was full but was well worth the wait. Their Qabuli rice is wonderful!!!!”

“The food is amazing. The restaurant is simple and no fuss. Traditional Turkish delight and sweet pastry for dessert was amazing. 100% recommended”

“Thank you so much for your food delivery yesterday, the food was great and very delicious as always. Worth the money and most importantly my family enjoyed it. Much appreciated. Keep up the hard great work and the quality level.”

“I’ve recently moved to Cheadle and I’m trying to navigate its many options for a goody night out. Many from the area recommend Yara. Fortunately, it lived up to the hype. The evening was a happy occasion, with visiting family from Yorkshire, and the staff & food made it a wonderful evening. Just enough attention was given to us by the staff, who left us to enjoy our food. Which was all wonderful; the hummus dip starter might have been the best hummus I’ve ever had; creamy and rich and to die for. The option to bring your own booze was also a welcome addition, helping to lead to a very reasonable final bill.”

“I had delicious meals in this restaurant. Lovely and decorated with comfortable seats. Helpful and friendly staff. Perfect for family or friends gatherings. Reasonable prices with credit card payments option. I enjoyed my meal in this place. Enjoy the musician in the background. Meat has many options and all are delicious. I will visit again!”

“This was a very random visit, walked past Zena and decided to try- one of the best random decisions I've made. The owner was a great host, we walked in when the kitchen was almost closing but he spoke to the chef on our behalf. The restaurant's cosy and food is AMAZING. Nice Levantine cuisine, not too spicy, great taste and texture. My new fave place to eat.”

“Very nice food and very clean and welcoming with a lovely traditional atmosphere and the staff are kind and have great customer service, I would definitely recommend.”

“The food, decor, shisha and vibes this day were off the charts!! I went here for dinner and we ordered the lamb kebab; one with rice, the other with chips. The mocktail were really good too, I enjoyed the strawberry daiquiri. Perfect spot for catching up with friends, midweek shenanigans, date night etc!!”

“Amazing Datenight at @fayrouzmanchester tonight...! Been saying for ages we'd try it havent we Mrs H and so glad we did...! Looking forward to going back sometime and thanks to Lilly and the staff for the warm welcome (and Baclava...!!!) #fayrouzmanchester”

“Have heard of them and then read some views online. Been there last night and had a great experience with Family. Atmosphere is okay. Staff is welcoming and food is great as it should be. Not too pricy, Value for Money. I would suggest you must give it a try.”

“I remember walking past many times as they were fitting out the restaurant and I can’t believe it has taken me this long to visit. What a beautiful venue, really central within a short walk to lots of bars. The food is excellent with plenty to choose from. The staff are helpful and friendly and the drinks are great too. Plenty great options to choose from with amazing flavours and although only tapas the portions are generous. We struggled to finish all our food. A really lovely place to visit when in Manchester but make sure you book in advance as it does get rather busy.”

“If you are from the Middle East, the food will take you back home. It is so delicious. The people working there are also friendly and generous. You won't regret it. Highly recommended.”

“Dear Taam, finally 1 Restaurant with delicious hot food in Manchester! I have been a few times in the past, and I really feel it just gets better and better. Coming from London, a city full of kosher restaurants, Taam really beats all of them, they know how to cook their food, even the dips, especially the chilli, it’s not just spicy, it’s spicy with taste. They are not stingy with their portions. It’s a typical Israeli style restaurant, but with good food. The servers are extremely friendly maybe even too friendly. If you know the meaning of good food, you will really enjoy it! And btw.. I have ordered in the passed via there App, it’s the best thing! It’s easy simple and fast. Enjoy”

“I love the atmosphere, the food was very tasty.. I like it”

“Great place for falafel and a drink but you're going for something healthy but delicious. The staff were lovely, the food was great and the smoothie really hit the spot.”

“Love this place. In a world where we have the £5 Mr Whippy milkshake and £7 factory made cake desert place > its good to have a traditional Asian sweet centre and traditional prices. £1.50 for amazing ras malai and same price for a pink tea. Nice mitai also .”

“Sea bass fresh chicken tasty, hummus fresh. good selection of bottles and cans. Don’t miss this place a must try if your in the area.”

“Authentic and affordable Arab food, staff was friendly not much crowded too. Waiting time was little longer. Don’t expect great dine-in experience, Typical budget restaurant but good food.”

“Service is outstanding as their communication with customer. Soup is Free as a starter and roasted chicken is juicy with decent price. The the end of the meal there is free tea and having with roti just makes it more delicious. Roti is free as many as you can eat but it have have changed.”

“The best kebab I’ve had in Manchester! Keep smiling guys you’re the best!”

“This place is a gem!!! Lovely atmosphere with modern setting, very clean. The staff were really attentive and friendly. The food was amazing, very light, delicate flavours and you can taste the freshness of the ingredients. Gluten free and vegetarian options too.”

“Went there with my family, staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was very nice and fresh, we had platter for 2 with lamb neck added and it was delicious. Even my little one ate it. Defo recommend!!!”

“I got Lamb Serbian and fried chicken they were very delicious and the taste of fries was perfect.”

“Great place to eat, food was wonderful and staff were friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend and will be visiting again soon! Helped that our server David was easy on the eye also!”

“A lovely dining in experience. We had a large table with beautiful ceramic plates and glasses serves with ice water. We opted for the mixed grill, kofta, lamb and chicken grilled. It was fantastic and tender, Served on a bed of onions and peppers. They bought in aubergine, chilli and yoghurt sauces as dips and delicious warm bread. We also opted for sujuk which was also really tasty. The food is halal and the staff were really kind and helpful. Highchairs are provided and is a kid friendly restaurant. Highly recommend. A lovely place in Chorlton.”

“Great food , the platter for one is excellent especially the chops and the kobedah style kebab much tastier than a normal one. We had this between two and also a chance chicken kebab for our two girls and an extra chips, hummus and there type of halloumi (not great) , we ordered extra bread which was a mistake as it was far too much which was partly down to the waiter telling us that should be fine. But we got one with the hummus so just one extra would have been fine not 3. The bread is delicious though. All in all a great meal we will be back just not as much bread next time. Plenty of food for us four. Beautiful building.”
