This restaurant serves amazing food and has very friendly staff. It’s definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Amsterdam! Been here twice and once in their other location in Oost. And will continue to come back, no doubt!

First of all they mad us take 2 starters and 2 main dishes (one of each per person). Second of all for some unknown reason they served the mazzas and main dishes all at the meantime so the main dishes (meat) got cold. Average experience all in all.

This was our third meal at Sham West. The food was tasty and flavourful but on this third visit the portions were smaller (the rice portions were disproportionately larger). The staff, except one, were amiable and efficient. The exception was one staff who insisted that, since we were three, we could not order the mixed starters for two. This wasn't reasonable considering that the mixed starters for two cost more than three single starters. We didn't want to make a fuss so we just ordered the mixed starters for three.

Thank you for your feedback and for being a loyal customer. We’re glad you enjoyed the food and found the staff generally amiable. We apologize for the portion size issue and the confusion with the mixed starters. We’ll address this with our team to ensure a better experience in the future. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Delicious, tasty food and friendly service. We opted for the special mezze mix. It was meatless and therefore good for vegetarians. The portion sizes were rather small, though. Will try their meat dishes next time. Will definitely return.

The service was good and fast however the food was not as nice as we expected.. I believe Syrian cuisine is much more tasty than this. Some of the food (especially kebab) was even cold when they served us. Only thing that actually matched with Syrian cuisine in my opinion was the black tea and the sweets :))
