All of the food we had was amazing except for the fish. Not sure if we just got a bad one but it was quite weedy tasting and not that great. Everything else we had was great, hummus with lamb, fattoush, pickles, fresh bread, etc. They serve good desserts with Iraqi tea as well after the meal. Staff is super nice but has very limited English. Be prepared to point and smile.
Another Iraqi restaurant in Abudhabi that impressed me. Only at an Iraqi restaurant you get Complimentary soup salads appetizers deserts and tea The food is typical Iraqi best You can eat food i will leave you to come try and say Thanks for this recommendation
Excellent food. The grilled fish was amazing. We also had the eggplant and the matcha. The good is served with several side salads, excellent bread. They also brought some juicy watermelon and very nice little cakes along with some Iraqi tea. The food is fresh , tasty and not spicy so it is suitable for all tastes. Located about 10 mn by car from Abu Dhabi Mall. They seem to be opened from 12 pm to 12 am.
The special way of cooking the fish around fire is just amazing ! The fish was so delicate and flavoursome, truly a unique experience. The service at this restaurant is outstanding.
