This lovingly, family operated, Halal Middle Eastern Gulf restaurant (tucked away in a corner of the Anusarn Night Bazaar Market) has exceptionally fresh, fried Snapper (its huge, enough for 2+), coupled with their wonderful biryani, baba ghanoosh, lavash, perhaps some of their exquisite humus, drizzled with sumptuous olive oil…!!!

Their menu is immersive…

Try one of their refreshing Mango-Pineapple Lassi’s! OMG!!!

Basil, the executive chef, is so creatively consistent in the kitchen, while Basiem, who’s your gracious host, take’s care of all of your need’s and wishes, making you truly feel like family.

Not sure what to order? Just ask Basiem!

We’ve been dining here, almost 8 years, and never once have we’ve been disappointed.

They also feature exquisitely prepared Halal Thai food, as well, with absolutely amazing Tom Yum Goong, SomTum, etc…

Everyone is...

Absolutely awesome food! I am a regular for so many years (hence this review). Then.. they have their bird pets and sometimes the birds would come to my table and got the food from my plate. Pity that when it happened the owner did not even offer to replace the meal OR simply apologise. Everyone is free to have their own pets but when it comes to shared space, especially as a restaurant owner, I think there is a need to be very careful about that. It really makes me not wanting to go back to the restaurant anymore. I hope they would be more mindful about their pets...
