I love the food here and the desserts. The quantity is great. Love having the mixed kufta here, it's served with rice and yogurt dip, both of which are yum. I keep going here again and again.
The search for Cardiff’s best kebab is proving to be a lot more challenging than I first anticipated. It’s not because there’s a dearth of decent doners or a scarcity of succulent shishes. In fact, it’s quite the opposite - City Road and its environs have turned out to be a kebab utopia. Reviewed kebabs from Lilo’s and Mina’s and post-pub guzzles from KBS and Abo Ali have all been excellent. Now, Shaam Nights can been thrown into the mix too. Shaam Nights, formerly Can Zaman, is a Syrian restaurant with stunning Middle Eastern inspired decor. Mosaic tiled walls and grand metal chandeliers take you to a place a long way from the hustle and bustle of City Road. A lack of alcoholic beverages is more than compensated for by an excellent selection of freshly squeezed juices and smoothies. Both a strawberry and banana smoothie (£3) and an apple juice (£2.50) were commendable stand-ins for lager. We started with some top notch mixed mezze (£8). Smooth hummus, smoky and creamy moutabal and pom
Wanted to try this place for a while. The restaurant is so clean with good service. Went with one of my mates. The food is really delicious, tasty, filling and flavoursome. They have a good menu and varieties that you can try. The service is speedy as well. You won't be disappointed. Highly recommended this place. The price is affordable. Has enough people to accommodate. Try to take enough cash as they don't take cards. There is a atm outside the restaurant in case you forget. Would visit again. Thank you☺️.
Delicious food. Thought I’ll try it I’m from Manchester just here for a short trip in Cardiff, the food was awesome and the service too, it’s maybe one of the best Syrian food I’ve ever had! & the price was good. Also the deco was outstanding.
Falafel were too good. Rest of the food was decent. Please note that restaurant accepts only cash payments. ATM is available right outside the restaurant.
Delicious food and it was made really fast. Didn't take a lot of time as in other restaurants. Highly recommended!
The only drawback: It's cash only.
Amazing!
We thoroughly enjoyed the food. It was fresh and too delicious. We ordered a mixed grill, mango lassi and starters and man it was absolutely amazing.
WC is available inside.
The wings for starters were amazing so tasty and flavoursome, then we shared the platter for two which was even better! Highly recommend this place. It has great decor and ambiance and the food is delicious and cooked fresh and very quick! The chilli sauce and garlic sauce was to die for! Very kind and helpful waiter who served us
The best food in Cardiff in a stunning restaurant with friendly service. It's our 'special place'. The portions are generous and I usually end up bringing some home for lunch the next day.
This restaurant is just awesome in terms of ambiance, workers, price and the most juiciest food. Been here thrice, first time with Mary J and my co workers, second time with my friends comparing someone we knew to Andrew Tate and the third time, a sabotaged AA meeting. Regardless of what circumstance it was, I was always satisfied and full with food and happiness.
The food was amazing so authentic ..really tasty and we really enjoyed it .. fab little place for a diffrent meal . The food was tasty and fresh well worth a visit. We really enjoyed it and will definitely be retuning soon
Very tasty Syrian food. We got a mix grill for 2 to share and was more than filling. Very tasty meat and speedy service. a little on the pricey side for what it is, but worth it for the quality. Highly recommend if after some authentic Syrian food. Also should note, it's cash only!
