The food was excellent. Good value and very tasty. We had a sharing platter for 4 with rice and it was plenty. The only downside was the waiter was not initially very welcoming and it took 40 minutes to serve our food even though we were the only people in the restaurant. Despite this I would still recommend going here.

Delicious food.
Can't rate the atmosphere as I ordered in.
I ordered the M'Hamara cheese, platter meal for 2, tabbouleh and hummus with chicken shwarma.
Everything was delicious.
The rice was flavourful and not bland.
The chicken was perfectly cooked and flavourful.
The tabbouleh was fresh and delightful.
The food came in good time and was well packed.
Would definitely recommend.

Been here a few times now! Food is still amazing! Very fresh and full of flavours! Fries were amazing and the salad was fresh too. Service was brilliant in the restaurant, overall very happy with the visit, will definitely visit again soon!

Had totally delicious lightly spiced shawarma chicken on a bed of moist saffron rice, with salads and dressings. Large portions..and was able to bring home what I couldn't eat. I also bought a tray of middle Eastern sweets to eat later with coffee at home. Good choice menu and teas, cold soft drinks and coffees. . Food served hot, by friendly and helpful staff. Nice middle Eastern (Syrian) atmosphere...and music. Recommend.

I treated my husband to a lovely meal at Old Damascus in Kingsheath. Delicious fresh hot food served with a smile. Lovely clean venue and staff very helpful. Clean toilets, the only thing is parking is on the side roads. Other than that it was a lovely venue. Will definitely return. 5*

beautifully cooked food in an understated family friendly setting. delicious starters and mains with efficient service. recommend the shish taouk with pasta, the chicken thigh burger was succulent and spiced perfectly as was the lamb. all food came out hot and tasted fresh. we didn’t have room for dessert but the tea selection and waffles on the next table looked divine. always a good sign when arabic speaking patrons are complimenting the food. well done guys we will be back!

Nice upstairs restaurant - pleasant and laidback service, and tasty food. Fattoush was delicious and the shawarma was enjoyed by my husband. Zaatar and halloumi flatbread also delicious.

It's small cozy and clean place. The staff are friendly. They serve traditional Syrian food. Huge portions and very good value for money. My girls loved their samosas, kibbeh and dessert.

I'll be honest, I could not finish my portion because it was too much of it. I loved the food and will be definitely back! They also have desserts etc. Haven't stayed in though and think the restaurants including the entry staircase could do with a makeover. It is dated and worn out. My food however was lovely and a bit too salty, but I am splitting hair! Will be coming back...
