    Great food, friendly service, and really good value for money. First visit but will definitely be back. Highly recommend okra starter and chicken shawarma followed by a sweet coffee.

    Important Update:

    Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.

    I've been to Al-Arez dozens of times and I can never get over how amazing the Lamb Shawarma Wrap, Lamb Hummus and the absolutely amazing Apple & Mint Shisha plus Mint Tea is. I always have an amazing time, the service and atmosphere is fantastic, and whether I go by myself or with friends and family, the experience is positive, food is brilliant and service is stellar.

    Table was right next to the bar, waiters constantly had to slide into the small gap between us to get food. the table was very unstable and moved around a lot. The service was unhelpful, chicken was slightly undercooked.

    For a Central London restaurant, you would have thought the prices would be ridiculously high for something as simple as a lamb shawarma wrap. But no, the prices are so fair and reasonable you can go and enjoy a whole meal for just £10. The food quality is good in all aspects and the restaurant is clean and well maintained. This is close to Hyde Park so you can to relax in the park after a meal. With its competitors, Al Arez shines out as a more affordable restaurant, but that price does not affect the quality of food which is very high. I would for sure come back to this restaurant for the food and service.

    The food was ok but the staff were told several time on different occasion to get us water but all they did is go to the counter and talk amongst each other. So many times I went up to the counter and asked for glasses or water and on one occasion knifes. Service is crap but the food was ok.
