I found solace in Sunway Pyramid, where I ate and vented my frustrations. To my surprise, I stumbled upon an Arabian restaurant tucked away in a small alleyway where the dim lighting matched my mood. Although the price of the lamb biryani dish was startlingly high at RM47, I decided to give it a try given the occasion. I also tried a mixed Dar AL-arab juice that had white, orange, and red colors, but it arrived in a uniform color, which was a slight disappointment.

Despite being full, I couldn't resist ordering a barbecue platter, which I packed up to share with my friends back home. As I waited for the food, I discovered a shisha area in the restaurant, which added to its charm. I thought to myself that I wouldn't have many chances to come back here once I returned to Johor Bahru, and I wondered if there were any comparable Arabian restaurants in the area that could occasionally soothe my...

Read moreI think it’s most overrated and overpriced restaurants I have ever visited, servers are very slow and full of attitude, they are serving plates and cutlery direct from the fridge don’t know the reason which even making the food cold. We ordered so many things, like Lamb Mandi, chicken mandi, salad, humus and even Adni Tea. And all are below avg taste.
Over all experience I will give 4 out of 10
Replying to the owners comment:
I don’t have time to proof anything to you, if you don’t take these comments and improve your service rather then challenging the person I can’t help you my friend.
As these reviews are on my personal observation. The plates and cutlery are coming Ice cold if you are keeping it dipped in ice water they are not from fridge but they were cold not normal room temperature or hot. I was invited there for dinner so I don’t have receipt or either photos.

And this is not a company that have PIC. I am a foodie and share my personal views in my...
