Visited few days ago, the place is less lively than few years back. The food is still very good and tasty like how it used to be. My only concern is with COVID hygiene precautions, some of the waiters were wearing the mask but its put below their mouths, which makes no sense from the first place. The service on the other end is ok-ish, it used to be better. Last but not least Sarouja isnt cheap, so you would expect better service and hygiene precautions.
Maybe good for shisha.Food quality below average.
Place to visit for people who kile Chicha and Narguile and syrian food. Live event some times, you can also play tawla (backgamon) so dont hesitate and go there. I liked.
Amazing oriental cuisine and hospitality. Love the taste of the food. The music and the engagement of the owners. Being there everyday makes the music with the inner fountain like a true classical movie
Under the new management, it will be the best top restaurant in Dubai and UAE very soon, food delicious, shisha great, friendly staff and we enjoyed the great party on Thursday.Highly recommended
Before this restaurant was so good, today we visited it’s honestly it’s not like before food is not tasty at all, before we were recommending but now definitely we will not
Calm and unique, try the (Kimmers tea) there ☕️
Quick disclaimer: we aren’t smokers. People are very nice, food was good, not excellent. Restaurant location is below average to a poor, hard to park and we realized after fact that it has a valet service.If you are a first timer be aware that you can valet but just don’t miss the side turn.We tried almost everything Shawrma was good, mashawee were excellent, mtabal was excellent, tabouleh was poor and not fresh at all.I’m sure this place could be a 5 for smokers as they have better area environment/seating and more of a crowd there.In short if you aren’t a smoker just simply don’t go!
Bad service ... they refused to give us zomato Pro discount despite they are on the list of zomato Pro.. zomato assured that this restaurant on the list of its discount ! I will not recommend this place since they are not trustable !
Good food, clean. Friendly staff
Good restaurant, Nice parties in Thursday Good luck
Amazing resturant however the prices are too much
One of the best food or patmpsphere in Dubai.
Not good customer service. noticeable decline
I had a very bad experience because of the bad service and how the valet guy parked my car on the sidewalk for more than 30 minutes without switching off the car.They damaged my car and ruined my night
Excellent staff, excellent shisha, excellent food. I have been joking that only downsize of this place is that their food portions are big and I have never managed to finish them :) keep the great work.
The food is excellent. Although I order for delivery most of the time. But I prefer the Pavilion-Jumeirah Park branch more than Marina because it is more open and has a better non smoking area.
Great service , you feel home
Delicious Syrian Food
Very bad customer service, you cant trust them , the manager is so rude and his staff are liars, not recommended at all
Best place ever in dubai
Bad service,ambiance and food. Not recommend at all.
It is a restaurant and cafee, with Shisha and smoking allowed.1. valet parking available.2. wheelchair entrance available.3. Various food selection, Arabic, western and indian...4. food price is a bit expensive, 50 AED for only dish of the day, shisha is for 20 AED. drink is almost the same, water is for 18 AED.5. The staff there are just OK.i would appreciate if they can leave more space between tables.
Amazing foodQuality serviceLovely atmosphere
The service, the organisation as well as the management are in a full mess.The service is very poorThey dont keep track of the reservations made neither knows who presented and who didnt show up. They seeted two couples coming together with the same reservation on two different tables. Thanks God we had the idea to call each other to find out we were both already at the restaurantThe waiters doesnt know what type of food should be served first and whenIf you order food for all your dinner at once you will get all at once even if doesnt fit, fall from the table on the floor or gets cold and munchy.No one at this restaurant know basics of Syrian or Lebanese foodTry to avoid it for dinner or shisha.
Not like before anymore, its was much better
Nice shisha. Food is OK nothing special
Delicious generous food.Excellent service.dirty smelly restrooms.Heavy smoking smell even in non smoking section.
Good place
This the best restaurant in DubaiThe food are amazingThe staff are kindThe song in restaurant is perfectThe shisha very goodWish they have branch in Abu Dhabi
Poor breakfast. Will not return. Very different than 2 yrs ago
The best restaurant in Dubai
Worst experience. The meat was old, smelly and not cooked well. The bread served were also not fresh. Waste of money. Not recommended restaurant.
Food and Service is good.Staff is friendly and makes you feel welcome.Every time i have guests visiting from Europe, i take them to Sarouja to try proper Middle Eastern food.Only downside is the loud Music.
Very bad serving!
WORST SYRIAN FOOD EVER ! Stay away.The food quality is below average ( except for fattoush , which was good). The meat was tasteless and dry , the grilled kibbe was bland with no pomegranate molasses !! Plus the place was dirty and smelly ( flies every where). Also , The furniture is old and worn out, and some chairs are broken.Worst part i got upset stomach then diarrhea !!
Easy you can enjoy your time and food, your parties and your football time in this place
It was much better in the past!
Excellent food and services.The staff is very friendly and helpful.Thank you very much !
Zero star bad service
Arabic food. Tasty food and restaurant is wide . Parking available
In general very bad and very much over rate in all means, food has no taste, as a simple and basic example Chef Salad has no taste at all i guess because they forgot to use dressing.The atmosphere is so noisy, lauded TV and also lauded Arabic Music from speakers.If you have to go, then use just the basic stuff, coffee, tea and shisha
Not the best tasting middle easter food. Ive had better. The interior is also very old & outdated
If theres a rate beyond 5 stars I would add that for sure! Amazing food made with love! A place that makes your soul happy 😍
This place was phenomenal. I only wish I could eat here every day. And Im half Syrian😊
Nice vibes and pretty chill, get smoky quickly so wouldnt recommend this place for kids. Or ppl with sensitive lung. Food was good indeed.
The best syrian food in dubai .Very nice placeTrained staffThey are making music program each weekend .
Nice and good Arab food.
Nice Thursday night program, Osama is a great singer who catches your ear, staff are ok, though you might book a table and yet find your self without a table when you arrive!!! Their specialty tea is great can’t get enough of it
All the time best for arabic and Egyptian food with fabulous shisha.. staff is so helpful.. easy to find on route .. must visit
Traditional Syrian restaurant with tasteful menu.. music and singer in weekend nights are very entertaining
This restaurant used to be good.Im not sure what happened to them but for the past five months or so they have gone down the hill.I used to have breakfast there almost weekly and invite visitors especially my corporate staff from overseas.I definitely could feel the change in quality, the rudeness of their staff, the poor service and the cheating in the food and over charging in the bill if you dont check it.I dont recommend this restaurant anymore, and if you do have to go because all restaurants in Dubai are closed, prepare yourself for terrible quality of food, long waiting time, unhelpful and rude staff, and most definitely examine your bill item by item.
Very surprised that food quality is bad, service was horrible, we had to repeat the order 6 times and still it was missing some items and and way too expensive
Amazing syrian ambiance, food and live music
No presentation , super bad service, not fresh food
Not all the food is goodBut they have entertainer
Great taste but they take long time to prepare the food for pick up
Wonderful, warm and welcoming as per usual. Particularly enjoyed the 241 shisha offer (as long as with a lady), for around 3 nights a week. Food is really good as well.
Nice place, staff are good and the animation is awesome
The music was diversed (4 different stars sang). The vibe was great. For the food, not as good as was expectin. Taboule missing salt (and i dont eat salty usualy) and the meat wasnt the best flavour. I prefered Al Sherfe.
Be the first person to spend your weekend dinner in this syrian heritage restaurant with nice music playing on AlOUD instrument
Good atmosphere, the food is great. Have a nice Karaoke night. Recommended
Awful!! Really annoyed as first couple of visits were average. Our own fault for ordering delivery and getting the skinniest grilled half chicken....might have been a pigeon
Not that good
Pricy but worth every penny ❤️
Nice Arabic food, good daily dishes everyday between 12 and 2sh
The best Syrian food
We were looking for an arabic food experience for our first time in Dubai on New Year Eve 2019. I looked for a lot of options and most of them were so expensive. When finally I found this place. I contacted them and they were very kind and the most impressive thing was their service. The price was more than fair for what we received. We flew to Dubai but before our trip they always stayed in touch with us thru WhatsApp. Mwafak was the manager who always was very friendly, helpful and kind with all of our needs. The experience for New Year Eve was incredible and this exceeded our expectations. We really enjoyed the food , the great live arabic music, the great staff and the restaurants environment . Highly recommend for everyone who wants to have a great Arabic experience.
Good food good service also staff every thing good
If you want to have a nice evening with your friends. Food, service & atmosphere all are amazing. And they serve shisha.
Perfect foodPerfect serviceWill surely come back again
The food was nice, but I didnt like the shisha
Every thing was great..🌹❤️
Solid middle eastern restaurant! Everything tasted very fresh and going mid week for lunch no issue with wait times
Very noisy
I think its the best restaurant for the syrian food in Dubai
Perfect Syrian cuisine and very professional staff. A valet parking service is also offered at no charge. Highly recommended
Very bad restaurant
Good service .great food
Very tasty place!
Excellent food. Nice Syrian style atmosphere. Can be very crowded and loud during karaoke nights.
