If you are a shawarma lover, I recommend this place. The chicken and beef were perfect. They also serve a verity of other dishes but we didn't try them. we find it accidentally and When we saw the amount of shawarma made and crowded place, we guessed it should be a famous and good cafeteria. we didn't try many restaurants in Sharjah but I love shawarma and try it in Iran and Turkey. I can say that Laffah shawarma was one of the best ones that I eat.

Arous Dimashq

Reviewed By CheruthonN

One of the well established and famous arabic restaurant in uae. All kinds of grill and arabic food is available including shawarma and fruit juices. Food is always served with a plate of vegetables which is complimentary. Price is reasonable and the place is neat and tidy. Bread is baked then snd there and served which is a sort of speciality. Nice place to enjoy good tasty arabic food. Downside is they dont accept credit card. Kind of strange but be mindful of this especially their sharjah outlet

Food is average, but service was terrible. Waiters are nice people but not trained and felt they should not serve us before they close for Friday prayer. If you are open do your job, otherwise...Stay Closed!!!

Journey:We were invited by Hyperlinks Media to try out the food and went ahead for a lovely dinner.Ambiance:A true hidden gem imbedded here in Sharjah! The restaurant is so lovely with such homely vibes. It’s quite spacious inside with bright lighting and authentic paintings and portraits adorning the walls.It’s a wonderful place for a family lunch or dinner as the food here is fantastic and great portions too. Also an extra point for the hospitality.The cuisine served here clearly has an Afghani and Pakistani influence and we’ve never enjoyed these cuisines as much as we did here at Kabab Bazaar.Rating: 9 Golden NuggetsBite BoardDRINKS1. Lemon and Mint [AED 10]: The drink was refreshing but slightly overpowered by the mint flavor. Some work is required to get the right balance between both the ingredients.2. Orange Juice [AED 10]: The most fresh and refreshing orange juice we’ve had. Served to us in a mason jar, sipping on this was an absolute delight.APPETIZERS1. Chicken Corn Soup [AED 10]: This is served complimentary to all the customers. A nice tasty thick warm bowl of chicken soup. You can never go wrong with chicken soup and at Kabab Bazaar they did exactly that.2. Cheese Naan [AED 8]: This was a highlight of our meal. The naan could be tried by itself or with curries. We had it just like that and were definitely impressed with the cheese oozing out and melting in our mouths. The cheese was equally spread on the naan making it really delicious and flavorful.MAINS1. Mix Grill 4 [AED 38]: A heavenly meaty platter of chicken mint boti which had a lovely minty marination, chicken malai boti that’s creamy and delicious, Afghani beef Kabab which was juicy and cooked perfectly, Afghani chicken Kabab that’s was flavourful and cooked well, chicken red and white boti which were again lovely and had a flavourful marination which was really delicious. This platter has been one of the best platters we’ve had so far. Loved the portions and variety offered and the consistency with the quality and flavor. Definitely recommend this one.2. Lahori Chicken Biryani [AED 16]: Our favourite biryani, hands down! The chicken was cooked to perfection and had that fall off the bone tenderness and the rice was so flavourful. One spoon of this isn’t enough. You won’t stop until the whole plate is empty and that’s exactly what we did.3. Chicken Peshawari Karahai [AED 18 – small]: An absolute treat to eat. The flavour of the tomato based gravy, the pepper and the mix of spices was just amazing. It went super well with our garlic naan too. A must try here.4. Chicken Karahi Lahori [AED 18 – small]: Another flavorful dish with juicy chunks of chicken. The green chilis along with the tomato base ramped up the spice scale making it a great combination to have the garlic naan with.5. Garlic Naan [AED 5]: Soft and fluffy naan with the perfect garlic flavour. We could eat these all day long. They were that good!DESSERTS1. Kulfi [AED 6]: Yummy, creamy and kulfilicious. We enjoyed binging on this. It wasn’t served on the traditional way I.e. On a stick but instead were sliced into pieces. We found it to be a little icy bug nevertheless it was delicious.2. Gulab Jamun [AED 4 -2 pieces]: Looking at the price you would be shocked! We have not found a place with similar pricing and quantity so far. But only disappointment for us was that the jamun had a cake feel to it, rather than the hot warm fluffy balls dipped in syrup! Though, it hit the right notes with the sweetness a little work on the right texture is required to make it the favorite dessert for the customers.Service:Mohamed Hassan did a great job of serving us. He made sure all the food was arrived in record time and had a friendly demeanor the whole time.Cash Outflow:The prices are very reasonably and definitely within the budget for the quantity and quality of food being offered. A killer deal is their grill options where you can pick from different grills that suits your appetite and wallet, now it can’t get any better than that!Location:Corniche Street, Opposite Radisson Blu, SharjahCircling Back:We are surely coming back for that fabulous biryani!

We ate here on our hosts recommendation. There are 2 restaurants of the same name, we were told the one on the Corniche was better. We had a big hammour fish and some tiger prawns in a spicy sauce. Both were excellent and our waitress was very attentive.It is dry with no alcohol available despite it being in Ajman. It was very good value at 550 Durham for 4.

This restaurant is really a big find in Sharjah, especially in comparison with Dubai café and restaurantAll our expectations were fully surpassed. We were offered seven!!! free! plates: with fresh vegetables, hummus, olives, marinated cucumbers and bread before the meal and very delicious local cake and fruits plate after. Main course was great especially fish and chicken. The dessert was delicious too, and not too heavy after all the other items.Service without fault. Prices are reasonable. A big thank you!! This restaurant is really a big find in Sharjah.
