I'm a big fan of Mandy lamb. It was served warm in aluminum foil. The meat was soft, moist and didn't have the strong "lamb taste" that some may not like. Rice was generous, matching the price. I would give 4 stars if it's marinated and cooked with more spices. Likewise the rice. The Mandy lamb I tried elsewhere, the meat was mixed with the rice, hence both aroma complement each other, which in my opinion was better.

I absolutely love this restaurant! The food is always incredible full of authentic flavor, fresh, and perfectly cooked every single time. But what truly makes this place stand out is the outstanding service. Shafiq is exceptional, friendly, attentive, and always makes sure every visit feels special. I always find myself coming back, not just for the amazing food, but because of the warm hospitality and consistent great experience. Highly, highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Arabic food and top-notch service!

The best restaurant that I have ever visited in KL, the food is super delicious, the atmosphere is calm and the service is on such a high level, I want to specifically point out one of the staff’s member Shafiq. The first time that I came here, he immediately reached to us by asking what we would like to eat, do we need any recommendations and while we where enjoying our meal he was also supervising us, which is so amazing!!! Definitely gonna come here again and again. Highly recommend this place!!!
