Al Halabi Gourmet Restaurant

Second time at this restaurant and I’m 110% happy again! The service is super fast, the food is delicious, and the portions are huge. The lamb cubes are fantastic - tender meat served with salad, fries, and more. The oven-baked chicken with vegetables is easily enough for two people 🙂 Don’t miss the Moroccan or Arabic tea—it’s a must! Highly recommended!

An impressively designed Middle Eastern restaurant that is as warm as it is inviting. The part grocery store fit out was a nice touch that added to the atmosphere. Food tasted fresh, portions were reasonable and service was adequate. The cheese and garlic naan was particularly enjoyable, despite it not being one of the traditional food items.

The place was nice, ambience yet too crowded. Lack of communication and language barrier. The food not so good since their staff keep missing my order and last minute inform this and that menu not available after 1/2 half.. takeaway items also take time to prepare when order 1 hours before… P/s: not so comfortable for dining since customer are allowed to smoking or vaping even inside the building.

Service appalling. Staff have no idea on their menu or Arabic food titles. Fattoush was a day old which wet limp lettuce and soggy fried bread, when I asked for a fresh one was told no. Half chicken less than acceptable. Naan bread (Indian and tasteless). Made comment to Syrian owner manager who wasn’t much in a caring mood to assist. For an Arabic style restaurant it fails big time and they would be whipped in the UAE or Lebanon for this food served.

Great food, a lot of rice though, have to be mindful of this when ordering. Lamb dishes are nice

services is good. the ambiance is good for family or gathering. but the portion is big. i really love the cheese kunafa. the mandy lamb rice is delicious. a bit pricey but worth it

Came here based on a review on food blog. The ambience and total atmosphere of the place was excellent. Its on the top floor generally away from noise. Service was very good. We were attended to and served reasonably fast. Price was on the higher side compared to other similar restaurants. But i think its justified by the ingredients used. The portion is relatively bigger. My favourite was the hummus and tabbouleh . Hummus was creamy and rich. Tabbouleh was freshly cut, rich and yummy as well. We were struggling to finish our food as did not expect a big portion. The lamb kebab was excellent as well. Personally it was the best hummus i have ever tasted and one of the best lamb kebab. Will come again for sure. Good food

Al Halabi at Pavilion Mall offers a pleasant Arabian atmosphere with nice decor and a warm ambiance. The traditional touches in the interior and the overall setting create an inviting dining experience. However, when it comes to the food, it’s quite average. While the menu has a good selection of Middle Eastern dishes, the flavors and presentation don’t quite stand out. Overall, if you’re looking for a nice Arabian setting to enjoy a casual halal meal, Al Halabi is a decent option.

A very new restaurant. We came here not really knowing what we wanted after all having travelled for quite a long time. My travel companions, after none of us could decide what we wanted (other than something that wasn't prepared outside at a market stall or something that would upset our stomachs on the first day - well, first hours, in Malaysia) and so finally after walking all the way to the top of the food court bit of the mall, we decided on Arabian food. We were all so exhausted that none of us really managed to eat particularly much of our orders, but we what we did eat, we really enjoyed. It was only the yoghurt dressing which tasted a little off to us. The decor is lovely and colourful, the seats decently comfortable and the waiting staff very kind and obliging.

This is my favorite restaurant in KL. The Arabic food and ambiance here is simply outstanding. The menu is varied, the food is tasty, the portions are filling and the service is second to none. The manager really knows how to make you feel at home.

I have been going here for several years. The food is outstanding and so is the service. The owner is a very nice gentleman from Syria and the menu is filled with delicious food. I highly recommend this restaurant on the 6th floor of Pavilion.

This has to be the best Syrian restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. A few things they can improve on is having the Garbanzo beans cooked more so people do not get gas after having them Garbanzo dishes that they offer. The Humus here is good,rice is good and the lamb with yogurt (Shakria in Arabic) is amazing.

This place has very good Arab food but the service is VERY BAD. I went with my family and we had the tabbola (which was ok), the hummus (which was very good) and the shakera lamb (which was very good). The owner seems to love the Arab customers who he gave a lot of attention to, but since we were not Arab we got very bad service. When I complained to the owner / manager he did not really seem to care. If you are not Arab , go at your own risk.
