β β β β β Very nice food and good place for eating with colleagues, family members and friends. We almost always booked the room and sit down on the carpet, which we found were more relaxing. For the starter/appetizer, we really liked the lamb soup, adas soup and samosa (lamb and cheese). The taste of lamb mandi, lamb zurbiyan and mixed grill as the main courses were great. Finally, we had the mint tea, umm ali and fresh fruit, which were were very good. Recommended!

β β β β β One of the best middle east restaurant in Indonesia! Period.
So the story was, i was driving around kemang area and was confused deciding what to eat for dinner.
Some of the junction was crowded and traffic jam is everywhere. But when i was driving, i saw this unique building with an arabian style facade, the name of the restaurant is abunawas.
It was not hard to know what kind of food served there, but i have never researched about this restaurant before.
Even so, me and my wife decided to test our luck and get into the restaurant. Little did i know what i was getting into.
Once inside a greeter comes to me and ask whether i have made any reservation. Obviously i havent because i am a walk in customer. I answered no, and he politely say that it's fine but the only place available was on the table seating.
I wonder if i heared it correctly, because arent all restaurant supposed to be table seated?
Apparently they have the sitting on the rug arabian style eating on the second and third floor. This style offers you a more authenthic middle eastern dining experience.
And after getting upstairs for a quick look, luckily the waiter said that they still have one more room left but the air con is broken. I'm okay with that, so we took that option.
The room was spacious with middle eastern style rug and some pillow, it's very comfortable for you to chit chat and eat. After seated, the waiter give me the menu book with a huge menu variation, most of which is considered alien to me, both the name and flavor.
We order hummus, chickpeas paste with olive oil and bread, mandi rice with lamb and umm ali, middle eastern dessert.
The bread is soft and the hummus is great, and it is even better than the one i ate in dubai. Umm ali also tastes great with the raisin and cinnamon complementing the flavor.
But, the bomb of the dinner was the mandi rice with lamb. It is served with some sambal and lime on the sides.
Rice is very fragrant and full of spice, it is very flavorfull as well. You cannot ask for a better one.
The lamb is very succulent and soft, it has all the right spice and it hits all the right note with the flavors. The meat falls from the bone and the surface of the meat has it's charred texture and smoky flavor.
Though some of the menu was not available during our patronage, for example the baklava, which is the traditional dessert with pistachio, the ones that they have is very supreme. The service given is also top notch as all of the server is very knowledgeable and they served with smile.
Last but certainly not least, we are pleasantly surprised to know that there is "COVID" discounts of 15% which is very nice considering thay we didnt know that the discount is there.
I will certainly come back to try out different menu.

β β β β β Wanted to eat Nasi Briyani so decided to try Abu Nawas.
Place looks too dim, not enough lights. Anyway ordered several dishes.
Nasi Briyani - Rice lacks taste and flavour. Chicken was undercook.
Cucumber Avocado Salad - Was just OK, nothing that will make me come back.
Platter - Average taste.
For the price they are charging, I expected better.
Will not return for 2nd visit.

β β β β β This is my first time at this restaurant. I used to lived in Middle East before so I have a high expectations of this restaurant in terms of the authenticity of their food. They didnβt disappoint at all. I was so happy when I tried their Tabbouleh, the taste is perfect and up to my expectations. Their Naan, especially their garlic Naan is AWESOME! Itβs so soft and fluffy. I ordered their Mandi Rice & it tastes EXACTLY as the original Mandi Rice. Only the chicken doesnβt really taste like an original. But overall, I really do enjoy the whole meal. It was lovely meal. I also ordered their Abunawas Tea - with mint in it - PERFECT! Iβll go back for sure. Thank you for satisfying my crave of Middle East food!! Thumbs up!! ??
