Samir’s Restaurant

This is a small restaurant in the heart of old Ramla. It is one of the few open on Saturday. Clean and pleasant interior, delicious arabic kitchen, fair prices and exceptional hospitality. We'll be coming again for sure and recommend to everyone!

I know there are greater tragedies happening around this god-forsaken part of the world, but I can't help but mourn the passing of the great Humus restaurants in Israel. There were at least two great ones in Abu-Gosh, and several in Ramla - all of them for several years now a pathetic husk, a sad reminder of their former glory. Long story short: Samir still serves fantastic Humus (and some very nice chicken dishes) at a very reasonable price and a cool atmosphere. Said atmosphere is helped both by the Mamluk-era building and by the slightly abrasive, Anthony- Bourdain-meets-Don-Rickles personality of the owner (definitely a plus in my book). A great overall experience.

A small and wonderful place. The food is great, the service is kind. The building is ancient and well maintained, adding to the atmosphere.

Excellent restaurant! Very good hummus and msabacha, excellent shish-kebab and other grilled portions. Surprisingly good selection of beers. Not a fancy restaurant, but very generous, with good atmosphere. Very busy on Saturdays noon.

Very welcoming service. Great food. Had hommus with lamb and beef, also very tasty green falafels. The portions were generous.

Higley recommended place, tasty and fresh humus. The salad was really fresh! Fries made from real potatoes!

Nice place good prices. A bit noisy and crowded. No acoustic ceiling. Recommended.

Fine restaurant. The interior is very special. The food is ok, but no more than that.
