Customer Reviews & Testimonials
Visited the restaurant after watching some Insta reels. The parking was full and had to park along the roadside. The ambience was superb and the food was delicious and it was worth the visit. Istanbul Kebab is a must try. Also, don't miss to taste their signature dish, Mutton Raan. All the dishes tasted different from what we've had so far . Should appreciate the service of Rameez. Unfortunately, we couldn't try Bakalva, since it was sold out due to high demand. We'll be definitely visiting again soon.
Right from entering the restaurant welcomed by warm smiles to finger licking food, it was a great experience. Each of the dishes were delicious and brought back a lot of memories. The Beef steak was so succulent. Pita bread and Kuboos though not warm was tasty. The homus was spot on. The kunafa and baklava was not overly sweet and filled our taste buds with joy!! A worth visit, will definitely be back to try the other dishes. Kudos to the chef and the team.
One of the Top Class Arabic Restaurant in Trivandrum, serving delicious varieties of Middle East Cuisine. The ambience was too good and the service was great. The waiters were dressed like Arabian Servants and they serve you very effectively and efficiently. Though the pricing was a little bit high, the taste of food was outstanding.
One of the best restaurants in trivandrum. Not so crowded, peaceful ambience and spacious. Finding a parking lot is somewhat difficult. Regarding food, we ordered plenty of items, while comparing the pricing it is expensive, but the quality is exceptional. I ordered tawook steak which was good. And tried fatayar which was also good. One fatayar can serve at least two people. Regarding service it is exceptional. 5* for the service. And ambience was also good. Overall a great experience. #recommended
Went there as suggested by some friends but was completely disappointed..Ordered beef ribs,chicken kapama rice,salad platter,kabab...chicken kapama rice flavour was mostly bland and tasteless just plain yellow rice with some unusual flavour,beef ribs was chewy and thick and no flavour, Kebab was strictly average..the only thing good was the salad..enjoyed it.superb salad but overall wasted 2000 Rs...
This is our first time trying Bab Arabia food, we really impressed about food taste and service also very pleasant. Really enjoyed this lunch. Mr. Ramez he help us to use best dish in Bab Arabia. We love all dishes specially Kapama beef is amazing must try dish. Each and every bite we enjoyed it. Thank you
Ordered Beef Kapamma rice, Turkish barbeque and Baklava and Lavash bread.speacial shout out to Rameez the guy who recommended the dishes. Really nice guy and good recommendations 1) kapamma rice:- good flavour and okayish quantity for two. Beef was a bit less but I liked the taste overall (note oily rice so beware ) 2) Turkish barbeque:- well cooked, subtle flavour, went well with Lavash bread. 3) Lavash:- one is good for two, but I didn't like it. I found it dry and more thick than a rumali roti 4) Baklava;- just like any you would find, honey stays ahead of all other ingredients so was different for me
Was hearing good things about Bab Arabia for some days and finally decided to visit for a lunch. We were welcomed by Rameez, one of the best there and were given clear information on the available food and its specialities. Ambience is good, nothing to note a WoW factor, bilut decent. Coming to the food, not being to Turkey and unknown of the authentic taste, we had a different experience with taste here. I am not able to say its authentic Turkish, coz i have been to Turkey, but the food tasted different and it was YUM!! We tried kapama (both chicken and beef, i liked the beef one), chef-zafa kabab (chicken), pasta etc. Overall it was a good experience; if you wanna try out a different cusine than regular Chinese or Hyderabadi, then this place is where you get one.
