I loved my experience at this restaurant! I’ve never tasted such delicious and authentic Arabic food here in Ireland before. The flavours were incredible and truly reminded me of the authentic taste of Arabic cuisine. A special thank you to Chef Mahmoud for the amazing food and for bringing such wonderful flavours to Ireland. The staff were also very friendly, welcoming, and nice, which made the whole experience even better. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves Arabic food or wants to try something truly authentic. I’ll definitely be coming back!
I stopped by by chance and now I'm going back on purpose. This is truly one of the best shawarmas I've ever tried. The meat is juicy, well-marinated, with a pleasant aroma of spices. The vegetables are fresh. The sauces are delicious and just right, not overpowering the flavor. The portions are large—I was very full. I especially liked how carefully everything was prepared. The prices are reasonable for such quality. The service is fast, the staff is friendly. The place is clean and looks nice. This is now my favorite place for a quick and tasty bite. I've already recommended it to friends and colleagues—everyone was happy. Thanks for the delicious food! I'll be back again 👍
Later edit We asked for a kebab bowl with chips instead of rice and they said not possible... curious as it's possible in The Flame... Guys this is so good. It is unbelievable finally there is a good shawarma/kebab in this country . We got the Syrian shawarma platter for two, with chips, toum (their special garlic) sauce and their special salads.s salads. OMG. I usually send complete reviews like this but shorter however this place and their lamb meat and the Syrian shawarma are just something else. The best so far in Dublin, people just need to know about you. Please please please invest a lot of time in marketing, tiktok and other platforms, you are so good and people need to know about you. I attach a few pictures. 10/10 in Dublin, Ireland
It was such an amazing mealtime filled with Arabic music, lovely company, so hospitable, friendly atmosphere and staff and of course wonderfully delicious food! It felt and tasted so good that we are going to come back again, the size of portions is so huge, so we packed take away boxes with the rest of our order! Well done guys and thanks for the yummiest experience at your lovely restaurant!
We took a chicken shawarma both, and the meat was soo good in it. I liked the taste of it, and the spices were very well thought out. Also, we got french fries, and I can definitely say they were the best one I’ve ever tasted before. Really enjoyed the meal, and would definitely come there again.
