For a restaurant we googled from interstate we were blown away. Very accommodating with diet and food preference requirements. A culinary adventure which was enjoyed by all and tantalized our taste buds. Loved the Water Bong! Detailed wooden carved wall added to the intimate dinning experience. Will be back given the opportunity. Recommend the chefs special banquet.

Tried this restaurant after reading about it on trip advisor reviews. The food is lovely & staff are friendly & helpful with choices. The evening that we went (friday night) 830pm was quite busy & as a result the restaurant was extremely noisy to the point of it being difficult to converse without raising ones voice & strain to hear...

Nice cosy place. Lovely atmosphere. The staff were great and helpful. Syrian food is amazing and this place introduces people to the flavours and hospitality of the Syrian people. Thanks

Sydney is filled with ethnic restaurants. But if you're looking for a Middle eastern dinner, look no further. It serves Syrian meze. We ordered four dishes and each one had its own unique flavors. Don't miss the grilled calamari, so tender that melts in your mouth and Syrian duck confit with pearl cos cos. The servers were professional and friendly... More

Nice decor and cosy little place. Beautiful food, friendly and efficient service. Syrian cuisine at its best with punchy and subtle flavours. Try the slow cooked beef brisket ... delicious.

Imagine walking through the spice fields, humidity and your sense of smell being tickled by the warm inviting pungent aromas. Now imagine waking your taste buds up with the real deal. Almond bar is cosy, to say the least. The heady mix of middle eastern music and the dark wood, means you could be seated anywhere. The menu is a... More

I visited this restaurant with friends and had a very pleasant experience. Though it is a little cramped with the seating, we did not find that it bothered us. The service was exceptional, as the staff was prompt, knowledgeable and very friendly. The food itself was fantastic - very tasty and well presented. We particularly liked the different flavoured almonds... More

A great little restaurant tucked away in a corner of Sydney's Kings Cross. Run by a pair of Syrian sisters, the food is great and slightly different to other places of this type. We have had graet servoice each time we've been there.
