Al-Nawras Yemen Restaurant — Restaurant in Iskandar Puteri

This restaurant is a truly a “hidden gem” for an unforgettable Middle Eastern dining experience, You are welcomed with the warm aroma of Arabic spices the moment you step inside.

We had their Grilled Lamb Mandi Rice, which was incredibly succulent and tender, with the meat effortlessly falling off the bone, and each bite was bursting with juicy, well-marinated flavors. The accompanying Mandi rice was well cooked, fragrant, and they were not stingy on the spices.

Next, we indulged their Mixed Grilled Platter served with Arabic flatbread. Featuring grilled chicken and lamb cooked to perfection. The char on the outside added a delightful smokiness, while the inside remained succulent and flavorful. The accompanying yogurt dip was delicious too and this helped elevated the flavours; however, I woild recommend the restaurant add a slice of lemon for those who wants to adjust the acidity to their preference.

To round off our meal, we ordered an Arabic tea pot. The tea arrived piping hot, with its blend of spices perfectly balanced, making it a comforting conclusion to a hearty meal.

The ambiance is air-conditioned and they’re well-ventilated and offers a comfortable dining environment, though it can become quite noisy during peak hours. A recommendation to the restaurant: incorporating sound-absorbing materials could help create a quieter, more refined atmosphere akin to high-end establishments.

Overall, it’s the perfect spot for anyone seeking high-quality Middle Eastern cuisine in Johor. Signing off — this “hidden gem” has the potential to shine...

Just came back from there, I ordered chicken maqluba because the lamb is out of stock for the night, the hummus, and garlic sauce...

IT WAS THE BOMB💣💣💣... been missing the Arabian cuisine for a while because the one in my hometown sucks.. for the maqluba, one plate can feed two people as they are very generous with the portion and very worth the price, the hummus came with a large bread which can fill you up really fast.. and the garlic sauce taste well with everything... I kinda forgot to order some drink🤣🤣🤣....

the atmosphere is very good to hangout, there's a place where u can sit on the floor too... the smell is heaven for spice lover..

the staff there were marvelous, made me feel like home with their friendliness and they always smile with their customer, they even ask me if I want to take away my leftovers( I can't finish the maqluba alone)..

overall, keep up the good job,...

One of the best Arab restaurant and Yemeni in particular. As Arab person I can taste the original taste and flavor of Yemeni and Arab cuisine . Also, the staff are friendly and welcoming people. Take your order with patience and pleasant. The mulawah bread one of the best I have ever tried in Malaysia. Fahsa is delicious too especially who likes juicy meal with bread. I have tried all types of rice and chicken during my stay in Johor. Honestly, Alnawras...
