Burj Al Hamam - Riyadh Front — Restaurant in Riyadh Region

We had an excellent dining experience at Burj Al Hamam. From the moment we arrived, everything was smooth, warm, and welcoming. A special thanks goes to Mohamed Talal for his outstanding hospitality, he made sure our table was comfortable, guided us with great recommendations, and checked in on us throughout the evening. His professionalism and kindness truly elevated our visit.

Food & Taste

The dishes were authentic, fresh, and beautifully presented. We enjoyed a variety of items, including: •Appetizers & Salads: Fresh fattoush, creamy hummus, and moutabal with just the right balance. The bread basket was warm and perfectly fluffy.

•Main Courses: The lamb chops were grilled to perfection, juicy on the inside with a smoky flavor on the outside, served alongside crispy golden potato wedges. The rice dish topped with slow-cooked lamb and almonds was rich and full of depth. The small shawarma wraps were also a highlight, tender meat, fresh greens, and wrapped in soft bread.

•Desserts: We ended with a traditional sweet topped generously with pistachios and paired with tea from a lovely ceramic teapot set. A small pastry on the side was a thoughtful touch.

Atmosphere

The outdoor seating was very pleasant, with greenery around and good lighting that made the evening relaxing. The setting is elegant yet cozy, making it perfect for family gatherings, business dinners, or a casual evening out with friends.

Service

Service was attentive without being intrusive. Our plates were cleared promptly, drinks refilled quickly, and staff were always polite and smiling. Again, a special mention to Mohamed Talal for his hospitality, he truly made us feel at home.

Overall

Burj Al Hamam is a place that combines great food, a comfortable atmosphere, and exceptional service. It’s definitely one of the top spots for authentic Middle Eastern dining. Highly recommended, and we will certainly...

I really wanted to like this place, but the food just didn’t do it for me. Everything tasted like it was made ahead of time rather than fresh. The Fattoush salad lacked that crisp, refreshing bite, and the Mixed Grill was dry instead of juicy and flavorful.

One thing I did enjoy was the open stove where they made fresh bread—it was impressive and added a nice touch to the atmosphere. Watching the bread being prepared gave a sense of authenticity that I wish carried over to the rest of the food.

The service was great, though—everyone was really kind and welcoming. The person who served us, Shah (I hope I remember the name right), was especially polite and nice, which made the experience more pleasant. But at the end of the day, great service doesn’t make up for disappointing food.

Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend...

Burj Al Hamam, Riyadh front branch It was crowded and busy during weekend, especially dinner time. The food is always great, serving authentic lebanese cuisine food items and sweets. All what was ordered was perfect, tasted very good and served in attractive way and had high quality. The issue is with the service, it was somehow slow and it was really hard to get attention of the Waiter and staff, you had to wait and look for Waiter and staff to ask for any service or request. I could be busy, but they should focus more on the service provided. Table and plates were never cleared untill we asked for the check, which they took so time in order to arrange change and return it. Will visit again, but I hope they give guests service more attention and priority. After other visits, i found out that the service is much better...
