Abunawas Restaurant - Matraman

3 Dailux - 3 months ago

Good Arabic cuisine. The Mandi has the real taste. Comfortable seating. Good ambience and service. However, disappointed in one case. Ordered grilled chicken, wanted only chicken, they brought nan like items and said, "it's a packet that come together." In short, we were forced to pay for something that we did not want and did not eat. They charged for something that was not used, which is not halal money. I understand this is a halal restaurant. They could inform it while ordering so that we would order something else, at least.

Well cant believe they serve authentic hummus and baba ghanoush, also its first time i taste that appetizer but for me its quite like main dish very satiate your needs. The spice taste i think is adjusted for Indonesian flavour but they offer three different spice level from just mild to strong taste. And its not spicy btw.

Delicious mandi and biryani rice!

With lamb or chicken, both are so good!

Those place has been very famous for it Arabian cuisine and the setting of the place is also beautiful.

Quarter lamb or chicken over your choice of rice is people’s favorite. You can have mandi or biryani rice, or half - half on them. Complete with spicy sauce and if you order any dippings, like babagamush or hummus, you will get the pitta. I also tried the cheese samosa and I love it. Tabouleh is good and fresh, although I would love to have more lemon on it. I managed to try the milkshake as well. I chose the one with peanut butter, which is very nice and creamy. Next time I will try the one with dates I guess!

Ih has two floors so you can choose. You can also have the tables or the ‘tent’ where you can sit on the floor for full Arabian experience. They have private rooms you can use as well. I love the ambience, it’s pretty with fountain, cave-like and tent-like decoration, murals on the wall and Arabic accents.

It has spacious parking lot, so it won’t be a problem. I am not sur it is disability friendly though, especially for those with impaired mobility. It has spacious room but to reach the second floor will certainly be problematic. I hope they will fix it soon.

When I arrived in this restaurant, i thought it was close. Actually it just move to other side. Small but it's not so bad. If i compare with Bali, more a lot choice food in Bali. The food here is nice, just the room isn't cold enough.

They have this spacious room, great for family gathering or another large group dining. Their signature is Biryani and Mandi rice with dajaj (chicken) or lahm (lamb).

There are package including main course (can mix the rice), side dish (salad, ati ampela, pita bread), and beverages (mineral water and tea).

I love Abunawas' Umm Ali, it's a dessert made of bread, milk, nuts, with cinnamon, cardamom, and other spices. Unfortunately they were out of stock when I came several days ago! :(
