We visited this small restaurant hoping for an interesting mezze dinner. A few items were not available, so we ended up with hummus, falafels, a garlic sauce and an Arabic salad. The latter consisted of wilting lettuce leaves browning around the edges, and no discernable...dressing - very disappointing. The rest wasn't much better. With a non-alcoholic drink we paid MYR71 for two. A week later we needed a quick bite for lunch, and nipped in for a falafel wrap each (MYR40 for two). This was very disappointing again, dry falafels in a dry wrap with no flavour at all. The decor is simple, prices moderate as you would expect, and service not unfriendly, but slow and lethargic. Arabic places are all the rage in Langkawi right know, but you can find much better than Damascus Cafe.More

The owner/staff was very rude, He shouted at us (my family & i) as our clothes were slightly damp from the beach. Please don't go . No notice was placed prohibiting . Staff was kind .

Damascus cafe serves the best shawarma, hummous, fatoush and falafel in town. We have tried a few other places just to mix it up and kept coming back to Damascus as no one can beat their friendly staff and great food. Visited Damascus three days...in a row and I would keep coming back.More

The Damascus Café in Cenang, Langkawi, Malaysia is close to Cenang Mall Langkawi (3 min walk), on the main street of Cenang Township (i.e. Jalan Pantai Chenang) and a stone’s throw from Cenang Beach. The Damascus Café in Cenang, Langkawi, Malaysia has Arabic (Syrian) as...well as other food specialties (e.g. mexican tortillas, Greek Salad) in a small, simple and clean environment with very good service (friendly, helpful) and relatively cheap prices. I have eaten here twice (e.g. Shawarma Chicken wrap, falafel, etc.), and everything was tasteful and delicious [especially the fresh baked Arabic pie with cheese (prepared on the spot)]. The Damascus Cafe had 2-3 high small tables outside with high chairs (on the pavement) where you can eat quickly a wrap and go (no alcohol is served here). Summing up, I have enjoyed my food choices at Damascus Café, in Cenang, Langkawi and I am intending to visit it again next time I will be in the area.More

Excellent shawarma, mac and cheese, smoothies mix with coconut milk not cow milk , soy milk and almond milk also available and falafel . But most importantly is the shop is very clean. The ice cream pistachio are home made, no milk they used coconut...milk. The tastes are super delicious should try. Mostly other shop in langkawi they never show the price, them menu are very clear and helpful if u on budget like me this is the good place. Don’t get scam with price food , trust me. Ask the price before u get shock.More

In love with the shawarma from the first bite , I doubt they have secrets recipe. The garlic sauce are the best that I ever taste, so perfect and tasty. Believe me I can go on and on just about the garlic sauce. Highly recommend!

Love the shawarma. We had the small one as a tested, end up ordered 4 big shawarma. Love the mango vanilla shake, is expensive rm18 big one, but worth it. Because we cant find any where else smoothies or shake at cenang area. Others are...cheap but with flavor and syrup. So Worth every penny.More

Went for a kebab with my girlfreind we ordered the chicken wrap and the falafel wrap. The owner explained that the promoted price for the chicken wrap was the small size (6RM) which was no problem for us. I mean there is small and then...there was this, you wouldn’t give this amount of food to small cat, it was absolutely tiny, not worth the money at all. There was barely any sauce on any of our wraps and my falafel wrap was so plain. Spend your money elsewhere.More
