Al-Amir Bar & Grill Arlington — Restaurant in Arlington

I really enjoy coming to this place we always throw our birthdays parties there or just a fun night out there is a good mix of people they do have a dress code that is strictly enforced so make sure you are dressed appropriately because you will not get in if you aren’t no shorts no athletic pants ball caps or T shirts. jeans and a nice shirt is fine with a nice pair of shoes. and there is something for everybody from a hooka lounge on there well spaced patio that also has a bar they offer reasonably priced bottle service it’s clean very well decorated they have 2,dance floors where on one they play music for the younger crowd which is reggeton and reparto on the other side they play music for the older crowd or for people enjoy bachata salsa and merengue I also love that they have excellent security the club tends to get packed but I have Never seen a fight break out there inside or outside the club which is rare in a place that gets so crowded in all of the years that I have gone. So safety is not an issue and they care about there customers if someone is too drunk to drive they will put them in a Lyft or an Uber if the person doesn’t have anyone with them or is unable to come get them. Which I also love because now days a lot of places could care less. The staff is super friendly everyone from the valets to the security bar tenders DJs and waitresses the manager is also an awesome guy he’s great at what he does he is always willing to accommodate you weather it be a problem with your bill to no toilet paper in the bathroom. He provides excellent customer service super friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a date night weather you want to grab dinner and drinks or just a fun night out...

The Restaurant is located off the highway near industrial businesses. We were a party of 2 and we went for dinner. The decor is very dark, we sat near the bar area. The restaurant itself was not busy at all considering it was 6 pm. We were quickly greeted by the young lady who also waited on us. She was very attentive and answered all of our questions about the menu, she also told us that the margaritas were $2.00 for Happy Hour. All though she didn't write our order down she got most of it correct, she did forget the soup my husband ordered tho. We started with the chicken and hummus. Hummus was very good and our server gave us plenty of pita bread all through dinner, which my husband really loved. The chicken was thin and a little crunchy on the ends, over cooked for How thin it was. I also ordered the greek salad, the feta cheese was delicious. My husband ordered the chicken shawarma, which he enjoyed with the spicy potatoes, garlic and pita bread. He said the rice was blah and in need of salt, which I agreed with. I again thought the chicken was thin and over cooked on that plate as well. Overall I enjoyed the hummus and feta cheese, the margaritas were worth the $2.00 but I would not pay full price for them. My husband enjoyed his meal, and the price for dinner was not over the top expensive. Chicken with hummus, greek salad, chicken shawarma plate and 3 margaritas for roughly $40 bucks not including tip. As we were leaving we noticed that the atmosphere was quickly changing, a younger crowd dressed for night clubbing and dancing were beginning to pull into the parking lot. Upon my initial arrival to the restaurant I was puzzled by the "proper attire" sign on the outside but upon leaving I was no longer puzzled...

Sung to tune of Hank Williams "FAMILY TRADITION"

Mediterranean food slingers Have always been a real close family, And lately some of Al Amir's customers Really want the whole world to see I guess it's because They've kept a perfect menu selection Lord we all know it's ole Al's family tradition

They serve it all including lamb Shank And all you can drink They even hooka toke And you must really try the lamb and the smoke Over and over Customers make the prediction The reason they're well-known, they're just carrying on An old family tradition

Hamza's very proud Of his daddy's name All through ole Al's years of recipes Hamza's is so close to the same

Stop and think it over Put yourself in the customers position If you get in the zone and eat and sing all night long its a family tradition

Just ask Hamza, Can I get another drink? And can you teach me the hooka toke? And why is the food so good, the lamb and the smoke? Ole Al's even got a real honky-tonk And beautiful people servin' up this food addiction

I say together or alone I'm eatin' all night long I just love their family tradition

Lord I love their humus And they even got Jim Beam And ole Al's been doin this since before 1973.
