Restaurante Alquds — Restaurant in Madrid

The place was a bit empty on a Sunday afternoon. We stopped here after done waiting for Mu and Takkos. Just like every restaurant in Madrid, the service was quick and to the point. We ordered the special from the menu: Pincho mixto and Grilled chicken. The pincho mixto came with three meats (kebab) style; lamb, minced meat and chicken with yellow (biryani) rice and a small portion of salad with chips(French fries). My wife ordered the grilled chicken and instead of the chips and salad she just wanted the rice. It’s a bit confusing when you request substitutions in restaurants throughout Madrid but somehow we succeeded on this one. Anyway, the chicken was very cooked, and I say very cooked I mean it was very dried and burnt on the outside. We also had the cheese sambusa, although they were good, the price for 4 bite size sambusa was at €6.50, very pricy. Overall the kebabs were very good along with the rice but the grilled chicken needs more...

I tried their food three times , all take away. The service was excellent, the food exceeded my expectations. I tried the Musakhin, which was generous and so tasty, the lamb kebabs, the cheese sambosa, the labnah( amazing) , falafel, and the lamb tajin ( lovely). Everything was better than expected, and with food more than enough for a hungry one person :) you get a bag of pita bread as well. Enough for a tribe! Yaser and Oudi and Zakiyah and other people who work there are very welcoming, and care about the customer. Will go back next time am in Madrid

Update: Visited on October 2021, this is not the same restaurant anymore. They do fast food arabi style only, all the great dishes disappear, only kebab and shawarma, and the shawarma was tasteless!!! I’m sad for them, they used to be great. Sad. Will not...

I recently had the pleasure of getting a meal from Al Quds through the Too Good To Go app, and I was thoroughly impressed! For just 5.5 euros, I got a great menu and added a Coke for 2.5 euros. The portion size was reasonable, but the taste really stood out — the food was incredibly delicious! Every bite was packed with flavor, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh. It’s clear they put a lot of care into their dishes.

If you're ever around Gran Vía and craving something tasty, I highly recommend giving Al Quds a try. The food quality, combined with the price, makes it an excellent choice. I'll...
