The ambiance and the view is very nice and the sitting area is very warm and welcoming. The food is not that impressive, I ordered two dishes. A) The Rice dish: I enjoyed the rice dish as it had different spice than Persian rice or Indian rice. B) The combination Kabob platter: The ground beef and chicken were both dry but the taste were good and the beef fillet pieces were better than the chicken fillet and the ground beef. I was not too crazy about the Kabob platters. It was a unique experience because I never had Syrian food and I will probably try it once again.

Good food and great service! Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area. Hidden gem.read more

Not ONLY was the food DELICIOUS but the price was right on the money! The owner even helped me pronounce the meatball word amd said I got it right when I said it back. We are big eaters and usually finish what we order but we were lucky and became stuffed, so we took some hummus/bread back to snack on later. The other gal there helping was friendly, helpful, and fun to talk with after we ate. Hoping to hit this spot again when we come back to town! Oh, the ambiance was quiet, we had a relaxing conversation while we ate.

We got to the restaurant around 9pm just as the place was about to slow down. We got sat immediately and our server promptly asked for drinks while we decided what to order. We got the lentil soup and the Adana kebab platter. Both the soup and entree serving were a lot of food yet very delicious. The service at the bazar is excellent and they take Apple Pay which is now the common way to pay for pretty much everything in Europe. 5 star restaurant in central Amsterdam.

I had never regret going to a syrian restaurant util i went to Syriana just over a month ago now…read more The first disappointment was the staff that did not have good knowledge of Syrian food (our waiter was colombian and there was no one who was Syrian or knew the Syrian cuisine among the staff). The mezze was decent and the soup was okay but when we got to the fatayir/kibbeh it was clear that they were not fresh and were warmed up. The mana-ish were all way below Syrian standard and the food was either dry or too fatty. They also served fried chicken which they give a nice arabic name but is, at the end of the day, just fried chicken. The all you can eat system forces you to order in rounds and then finish your food or pay a penalty, so i was forces to eat fried chicken strips and nuggets.

The staff was very nice and helpful in explaining the tapas style menu along with giving various suggestions. I even had a brief moment to chat with one of the chefs and it looked as though they were having a good time back there. A happy chef is a good chef. Or is that a fat chef? Since it was lunchtime I only had two small plates. The hummus was fresh and tasty. I also had the broodje pita kaas. This was more of the thick Turkish bread rather that pita bread. The cheese in it was melted though with sautéed red onions. In the said was a yogurt dip and small salad. Overall a good experience.
