I recently visited Al Nafoura Pakistan Barkat Market Lahore branch which offers delicious middle eastern food. Although it is a small branch, their flavorful dishes and excellent service made my experience enjoyable. I opted for Hummus, Falafel Sandwich, Shawarma Sahan, Basbousa and Trifle. Everything was freshly prepared, less spicy and superb.Hummus was a perfect appetizer, it was creamy and smooth, served with thin flatbread. Falafel sandwich was full of flavors and textures.Shawarma Sahan was a mouth-watering platter, came with sliced juicy chicken, tangy pickles, homemade sauce and thin flatbread.Basbousa and Trifle were good enough to satisfy any sweet tooth.
The food is very good. Trademark Arabic sweet dish Kunafa was not upto the mark.Now a days, they have arranged dine in at rooftop. But unfortunately, when i visited, rain came and everything went into chaos, bcoz they didnt have backup plan for rain.
Beautiful Rooftop and authentic arabic cuisine.Instagram @itsmeUsman_
Tried 1st time. Mandi (Rice) werent as expected as I ate traditional Mandi in UAE. Salsa sauce which was served it was too thin, whereas, it should have chunks of tomatoes and other ingredients. BBQ platter had different meat and was served rice on the bottom. Ambiance is good. Try atleast 1 time to find out yourself.
Good Arabic food with desi touch. highly recomended.
Best ambiance good Taste Service is also good
Arabic dishes holds discrete luscious taste which is so tempting you will come back for more.
I have visited this restaurant today but definitely not recommended to any one who has a legitimate source of income. The food taste was below average if compared to the payment we made. We were persons ordered one BBQ platter, one mutton karahi, one mutaqabal salad and half chicken Mandi. The bill was Rs. 12,000 means 3,000 per person at average. But the taste of food was really not good and it is much better at Baitul Mandi with less than half of the price.
Its Fantastic food Quality is very goodArabic food is very delicious in very normal price
THE ATMOSPHERE OF NAFFOURA IS GOOD TO SEE& ITS LOOK LIKE IN ARABIC COUNTERIES
Very bad shawarma,chicken was undercook & felt like local shawarma. We will never ever go again :(
Arabic Shawarma platter is worth a Try
Ordered: 1 Humus with Laham, 1 Fatoush, 2 Shawarma as take away order.First of all when I reach home, saw only 1 shawarma instead of 2. Secondly very average quality food. Oly Humus is worthy of praise. Rest was ordinary. However, packing was good!
Visited this place today and when coming inside the restaurant we were welcomed very well by the staff.Ambiance was pretty fancy too and it was pleasant and peaceful.Coming to the food we ordered shawarma and the quantity was pathetic and taste was just average as compared to shawarma in middle east.In my opinion there is no value for money and they really need to improve their quantity to grab customers.Their menu has got lot of stuff so those people who lived in middle east they can give a try but food is mediocre.
Excellent food and nice service. Highly recommended. We tried mix grill platter and two gravys along with fresh line and a dessert called kunafa. The desert was just okay the rest was awesome.
Great ambienceGreat serviceGood food, close to authentic taste!A little over priced for the menu items offered.
Loved this place. The management of saudi Arabia Nafoura opened branch in lahore.Recommended for Riyadh(saudi food lovers)
Delight to eat..Great experience tasting Al NafouraArabian and Lebanese dishes especially the Shawarma platter and Dajaj Faham(Arabic dish) was so mouthwatering..Can taste all the Arabic and Lebanese sweets and drinks as wellPrice was reasonable Ambience 10/10Service 10/10Taste 10/10Cleanliness 10/10Hospitality 10/10
Loved the hospitality and management. Food was delicious and the ambiance was perfect.
So far good Arabic food in Pakistan
Nice place. Authentic taste
To be very honest food was good but they do not offer spicy cuisines. They have coparatively big setup but cuisines are not according to the taste of Pakistanies. But ambiance is good. I have tried few dishes.
Awesome food and i love this place .......
Too much expensive and taste is not original as arabic cusine.
I born in middle east... So i was really excited to visit this restaurant... And today i went for dinner....And i loved it!!
Authentic hightea n best taste ...
Only authentic leabanese Resturant in Lahore....just one thing as it’s a Lebanese Resturant so Mandi is actually sort of Qabsa Resturant which atleast I don’t like.
Service Is Outstanding But Taste Must b review
What an arabic cuisine to eat in Lahore. Perfect taste as found in KSA / UAE. The fatoush, homous, faham dajaj, laham kabab were upto mark and reminded me of my time in Arab countries. Shawarma was a bit sweet due to extra mayonise but was neglectable due to other food. Very good ambience and cooperative staff. the owner also talked to us at the end sharing the restaurant history. keep.up the good work lads
Very nice decor and ambience.
Good food in a reasonable price, not very expensive, but it is. Food for two will cost you around 2k and you will b full after eating.Good Labanese cuisine in the vicinity with good staff.
An arabic restaurant with nice environment . They offer a lot of dishes in their menu with average taste.
Best place for middle eastern n desi cuisine.Live kitchen, courteous staff, reasonably priced. A good addition in Lahore
10/10 outstanding tastes and almost economical and loving staff Dajaj Fhaam is same as we got in Sodia Arebia.
Typical Arab food.This place serves authentic Arab food with proper tadte and ethics.Must try their Shawerma Sarookh.Visited many times and will continue going there.
Tooo much bad service and taste
Quite close to original arabic taste.
Nice place to have Arabian cuisine.
Such a great place with one the best service staff. Ambience is good too.It is actually an Arabic restaurant started from Saudi Arabia, so youll get an authentic middle eastern taste.Delicious, Value to money, and authenticity with quality.**Recommended.
Rooftop....
Great food and great taste, nice quality and ambiance. Service was good quality but slow. Much recommended for those who are looking for real arabic taste
Good authentic Arabic cuisine cooked in Arabic style. Delicious!
Love the atmosphere and food stuff excellent
Tast was so good. Love bbq
Unbelievably excellent and delicious food without any doubt. And, the staff and management of this place has really and practically proven how to take care of their customers with max. respect! Keep the the great work!
Something new nice lovely food nice
A Great Restaurant with Huge Variety of Delicious Dishes. Its a Hotel Too with Top Class Services and Great Rooms.
So far best for variety of foods ..but not necessarily Arabic
Good Syrian Lebanese food in LahoreManager is Syrian
Yes a tasty dinner here
The taste is great. Garlic sauce is a bit sweet in taste and lack a punching flavour of garlic. Prices are bit expensive.
Room service is extremely expensive they charged me for two cups of carrot juice 870 rupees which is extremly high.. I dont think I will be spending night in this hotel next time..
Tasty food. We tried thai chicken with rice and shawarma.Perfect taste. Fatoush salad was awsome too.
Ill be blunt and straight forward so read to the end. I was greeted with a smile and we were given this arabic coffee while we waited for our food. The waiter was extremely nice and professional, the restuarant is very clean and well managed. Although, having lived half of my life on arabic foods, their shawarma shared somewhat a similar taste, but was not exactly like a Turkish, or Syrian or Lebanese shawarma. It was made out of something similar to paratha, and lacked pickles. The garlic sauce was sweet and tasted more like mayonnaise than garlic. The waiter himself guided very well and said our kunafa right now isnt very good but referred me to another restuarant which was very surprising. Overall, I would recommend this place, but the shawarma matched 70 percent only to the original Arabic taste.
The best Arabic food I’ve ever tasted in Pakistan. The staff is professional and friendly. They also have an open kitchen as seen in most Labanese restaurants, which I found to be a nice touch in building the ambience. If you’ve been craving for some authentic Lebanese shawarma... This is the perfect spot! I honestly love it here. 10/10 will visit again.
Shawarma bread is like sweet. Chicken is not fully stuffed properly in bread. Fried are not up to mark. The bread used in shawarma has its own significance not like pitting oil on it. Two shawarma sliced in to big pieces they should be sliced in to small pieces. Disappointed.
Brilliant! Had a great time with family here.The staff very cooperative and polite.The food was great. Tried the BBQ platter, Khabsa and the Shwarma Platter. But the best was the Cream Kunafa.Highly recommended if you want a different tasteThe only issue was the bill. Slightly expensive
The meal was awesome. Overall satisfactory.
Hope u will understand, I have never found such a cheaper, cheater restaurant....... Very bad experience I got from there......
Had great fun....and delicious food same as Saudia.....Miss our Riyadh
Good staff
Food was delicious and served well within time. Recommended
It just opened and it has an even better vibe and taste than its branches in the gulf! Its definitely the real deal. The mixed appetizer platter is a must try. Prices also reasonable enough for the great quality arabian food it offers. The falafel and hummus were rather disappointing though.
Excellent bbq platter, recommended.. need to improve ambiance and cleanliness a bit.. service and food is really excellent
Its one of the best place to enjoy arabic food and arabic dishes also their sweets are so mouth watering.. and famous for the arabic best dish known as Laham MandiI taste it in both branches the taste are same in Riyadh n in lahore.
Authentic arabic receipes only for arabian food lovers
Al Nafoura Restaurant have a Good Hi-Tea Plan in Just 1290+ Tax .
Best ever Khabsa Laham.
Not tge same as the one in Saudis
One of the best Lebanese restaurant in lahore
Service was very good but food was only OK and not matching with the steep prices.
Athe hotel was neat tidey the plus point was cooperative staff
KSA expatriates must visit, original Arabic taste and very friendly staff
Pretty good variety of food, decent staff, atmosphere is nice too.
Best place for Arabis food lovers
Its nice! The taste is different than the riyadh branch
Most authentic Arabic food in Lahore
Beautiful sitting place and staff also with good ethics
