I really like the authentic Arabic taste. The menu option is good, loved the shawrama. Service is also good. I am definitely the revistor. It should be on UberEATS for home delivery.
After the horrific experience we had at the Turkish Restaurant across the road, we came to this restaurant. We received excellent service and had, in my opinion, the best shawarma in Joburg. I asked for the special pickles and they made sure it was included which the other place completely ignored or forgot about. On top of all of this, one of their heaters did not have gas and the owner/manager immediately got it replaced. Living in Dubai all my life and being Middle Eastern, I can vouch that Shaam restaurant has a decent Shawarama and I will be coming here again to satisfy that craving.
Excellent! Best pipes in town. Anybody who's traveled will appreciate the layout and ambience which this restaurant captures. The Arabic coffee is a must have.
Lovely restaurant! The decor is authentic and colourful, the ambience reminds one of being in a foreign country and the location is ideal for a peaceful dinner. The waiter was exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Started off the meal with traditional Arabian tea, which was served in a typical Turkish tulip-shaped glass. We even received a complimentary second cup of tea after our supper!
I would recommend the Shami kebab, although I've heard that the Iranian kebab is even better.
Will be back for another dinner in future!
A Big thumbs up to this establishment. From starters, main course and even the dessert. And not to forget the hubbly. Drinks were freshly squeezed. Delicious. Everything was top notch. Waiter Mr Nigel made the evening fantastic. Will def return.
The place is amazing, the food is tasty delicious and fresh, it’s a great place to go with friends or on a date. The service is amazing. Brandon assisted us and was great, the place is clean. If you park close enough and sit by a window seat you can see your car.
There is vegetarian food available as well as lots of salad platters to choose from. Great tasty foods to try.
I will definitely be returning to this well ran establishment.
A friend of mine suggested we try out this place, as opposed to visiting the usual Galata/istanbul kebab.
This place honestly beyond exceeded my expectations, its nothing fancy in terms of decor and interior, but boasts a very relaxed chilled vibe.
We ordered a few things one of which was the chicken chops recommended by the owner, which was so flavorful and delicious that I’ll definitely be coming back for me.
Their service was insanely fast and staff were very friendly.
Food was priced similar to other middle eastern restaurants.
They could maybe improve by adding a dessert selection to their menu, but otherwise I was very impressed and recommend you try out this place.
Very Nice Syrian food with good service.
It is a shisha/hookah place and restaurant. They have freshly made fruit juices, kebabs and wraps.
It is very close to some restaurants that play loud music at night, but not so close that you cannot have a conversation, just close enough to feel the vibe of the area.
They do not serve alcohol here.
Great authentic food. Delicious tea. This place has a lot of potential but the interior, which was taken over from the previous restaurant, needs a serious overhaul. It feels a bit run down and grimey. Looking forward to come back and see how the place develops.
Relaxed atmosphere and delicious food. There is a bar and lounge as well as outdoor seating. Various kebabs available. You can also order various flavoured hookahs. Food is reasonably priced and the service good.
Ordered grilled platter for 2: Grilled meat & chicken weren’t seasoned enough and quite bland; the falafel was tasty but otherwise I wouldn’t recommend going here for food.
Enjoyed a work lunch here, the food was good!
My loving place in Rivonia. When you stress out, feeling lonely or just wants friends party. Then get to this place and leave all your worries behind. Sit relax and enjoy the vibe.
