Bab Tooma

Been here so many times, the food and service has always been excellent. Great value for money, definitely my favourite restaurant in Bradford

Waiters and manager were very attentive , starters and main were excellent great company great food , the seating area was packed and people were queuing to get in no alcohol but it looked like you could take your own but who needs alcohol with great food on offer ... defo on my radar and the others that went our party on 9 will be back with partners .. well done

Fantastic food really good atmosphere. I'll be back very soon

Very busy and hectic ! This was due to Eid but I do think they had over booked . The singer was nearly sat on my friends knee whilst she was trying to eat ! However food was great and service excellent . Lots of nice freebies in honour of the celebration.

Wonderful food. Lovely service. Great value. Bab Tooma just seems to get better and better

If I could give it zero stars I would. Can't comment on the food as I didn't get a chance to sample. Reserved a table online and then rang the restaurant to confirm if my reservation had gone through. Person I spoke to confirmed it had gone through. Turned up to the restaurant a few hours later and the chap told me they were fully booked and that I did not have a reservation. I showed him the reservation e-mail and my call history on my phone which showed I rang them. He denied speaking to and said none of his staff have spoken to me yet confirmed that the number I rang was the number for the restaurant and confirmed that I had made a reservation. No apology given,just a lot of attitude and rude manners . I would have accepted an apology, mistakes happen however I got a lot of "it's not our fault". May try again after Ramadan when it's less busy however my rating is based on my experience today

Great and delicious homemade food. Highly recommended! Good price too.

A truly great Syrian experience tantalising our tastebuds for more !

Very nice food and friendly staff. Only thing I would say is get a divider for the prayer room so men and women can both pray.

First time visiting. Lovely decor. Struggled with what to order but our waiter was very helpful and recommended dishes. Turned out very well. Food was delicious and diverse. Although the lamb chops and half chicken were juicier than the lamb and chicken skewers. Service could have been better, however, as after taking our order, our waiter seemed to disappear and we struggled to find someone to ask for more water, food, etc even though the restaurant was empty at that time!

Lovely little place, food was tasty and a lively atmosphere with a Arabic themed singer/guitarist.

Great food and atmosphere ! Maybe the need to work more on the kofta

Food was great and staff very friendly. Would recommend to any diner

A lavish buffet, plenty for a vegetarian like me, including lovely pastries, amazing Baba ghanouj & muhammera etc, & delicious wide range of desserts included in the £16 price including various little pistachio-ey things which I don't know the name of but which were super morish.

Amazing buffet! Kind people! An amazing experience! Thank you for the amazing evening!

Great restaurant and food is lovely. Had mixed starter and fish!

Very tasty food atmosphere is very nice and no waiting time

This was our first time there the waitress was lovely very attentive we ordered fresh lemonade with mint amazing a must for all who go highly recommend a shared cold mezze with amazing light and fluffy Arabic bread the platter was out of this world then the mains came huge portions delicious lamb and chicken skewers yummy the ambience is lovely for couples or groups like us oh and was given complimentary cardamom and mint tea to finish the whole night was great we will definitely be going again very soon

The food was lovely and staff was very friendly aswel.

We love the food here so took some friends who were definitely not disappointed and have said they’ll go back again. Can’t wait for my next visit!

Lovely restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff very pleasant.

Great food, good atmosphere & reasonable price. Would def recommend a visit

Definitely worth checking out and will go again. Delicious food and a great atmosphere

Gorgeous food every time I love this place It’s so relaxed and you can take your own wine 👍

This is one of mine and my wife’s favourite restaurant. Great to see the food being cooked in the open kitchen, which is amazing every time.

First time we had tried this place, really enjoyed the food, good choice, nice decor, will definitely be back. Staff could be a little more attentive we were told ‘that’s your table over there’ not taken to it. Also waited ages to get the bill as could not get anybody’s attention so I had to go to the counter and ask. Overall I feel it’s about the food which was great

Amazing little gem of a place Food the best I have tasted in that gendre

We found this little gem on trip advisor. The food, service and atmosphere were fantastic. We did think that the toilets could do with a spruce up.

Very welcoming, great service and food. Fab place for pre theatre food with a difference.

Excellent meal before evening at the Alhambra theatre. Delicious hot mezzo selection and fantastic value for money. Highly recommended!

The food is great prepared fresh and you don't have to wait too long. You can see the kitchen where the grill is. The staff are attentive and the lemonade with mint is fab. Great value.

Food was amazing and great service. Would come back and recommend

food had a sour stecnh to it. plus some of it was cold

Great food, great service, great place couldn't ask for more

excellant food at a reasonable price.You can take your own alcohol. Lovely surroundings.

Beautiful food like stepping into the Middle East highly recommended

I’ve never experienced such lovely and kind service during busy times ! The food and drinks were refreshing . Will definitely be visiting again !

Really tasty food, everyone loved it and great atmosphere. Everyone will come again and will recommend to others and friends. Grilled chicken was on point ;) Thanks :)

The food and service were good and the space ia nicely set out and decorated not a lot of choice for vegetarians or vegans but we enjoyed what we had. The meat eaters loved it.

Second visit and it was better than the first. The food is gorgeous and the service is great. The mains come out a bit staggered which isn’t ideal but not too bad. I recommend the mint lemonade and the halloumi starters.

Great customer service and delicious food. Very quick too aswell. Wish there was more places like that in Bradford. Will definitely go back there soon.

Food was okay but chicken was really dry and was sat under broken air con so was freezing the whole time. They did offer to move us but we were halfway through our meal by this point

Second visit and unfortunately we were disappointed. Food and service just wasn't as good as the first time. Unlikely to return in the near future.

This is my second trip to Bab Tooma and it was a great experience. The staff are polite, helpful and patient ( it took us some time to decide from all the delicious menu items). The location is great, and the venue has been decorated in a traditional style to transport you away to far away lands. And the food.....every component was a delight visually and on the Taste buds too. Will defo be back.

We had a wonderful evenng with a groip of adults and children, therebwas excellent food and great service, highly recommended for any time of day

Such a gem of a place. Gorgeous and tasty food. Very decently priced, cosy place and staff are very helpful and lovely! Thank you will be returning.

Great value and delicious middle eastern food.Staff friendly and gave great service.Loved the lemon and mint drink.Minced lamb kebabs were tender and succulent.I loved it😀

Great food, beautiful juices, but seemed a bit to busy for the guys working there to cope with - food slightly delayed, not really attentive, however, the family run business is a gem for Bradford !!

Great place ... lovely decor and atmosphere ... very cosy and inviting ... staff are very good and great at explaining menu and making suggestions on what you may like Food is very nice with great variety Only negative - need to work on getting all food to table at same time as one of our guests mains was brought out followed by 2 others mains 5 minutes later then another 5 minutes for the final main by which point the 1st person had finished eating

Lovely service. Nice decor & enjoyed the food. Try the fresh lemon and mint drink. Very large portions. A welcome change from eating at curry houses in Bradford. Very central.
