    We love the food and atmosphere. Just be sure the waiter applies the discount…sometimes they miss it.

    Hummus and Muhammara were delicious. We also ordered Maqluba and lamb was so tender and full of flavor.

    The food was very flavorful and light Not too much garlic, onions or any other spice often overused in similar ethnic restaurants Very generous portions and fresh vegetables A great deal for the money I enjoyed every single dish and no dish was contrasting others Delicate and colorful experience Unexpected

    Absolutely amazing food. Been many times. Atmosphere ok, it’s a bit noisy and chaotic so could be calmer and cosier but that’s not a biggie.

    Syrian specialties, very generously sized dishes, great value for money. The locals love it too, so make sure you make a reservation ahead of time.

    The food was mediocre. Humus with meat was below expectations, arabic bread that came with it was not fresh. Shish tawouk and the kebab were both mediocre, dry. The salad was the only dish that was very nice. Staff was friendly and professional, the restaurant has a nice atmosphere.

    I prefer the one in west, the starters were not nice not much taste. I had lams with potatoes and rice, never had such a terrible dish in my life. Guys it’s not about the quantity but the quality. Still on my first choice the one in west, I totally recommend.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sham Oost in Amsterdam, and it was a delightful surprise! The food is a true representation of authentic Eastern flavors, and every dish was absolutely delicious. The experience was further enhanced by the staff, who were incredibly warm, helpful, and kind. Their attentiveness made the evening even more special. I highly recommend Sham Oost for anyone looking to enjoy genuine Eastern cuisine in a welcoming and friendly atmosphere!
