Reem al Bawadi has very tasty middle eastern dishes in a very inviting atmosphere…read more I came in last spring at 8 or 9 with two friends and there was only one other table filled, which was odd considering it was in the middle of a heavily traffic part of the central city. We were warmly greeted, although there was a bit of a language/cultural barrier at times. The interior is extravagantly decorated with tapestries and cushioned seating. Several hookas were available, and I found the couple smoking a ways away were not bothersome at all. We decided on ordering the big '2 person' platter with a sample of nearly everything on the menu. It was gigantic and had mover a dozen different dishes. There was hummus, baba ganoush, falafel, dolmas, various meats, flat bread and rice. Each was very flavorful, carefully prepared and disappeared quickly. Although there were three of us, we hit a wall and could not finish off the platter. It did take some time to come out, maybe 45 minutes, but it was apparent why when it came out. The price was reasonable for the amount of food, but more than I am used to in Spain. Drop in to Reem al Bawadi for a flavorful bite from the near east.

The pita was freshly baked as well. If we haven't eaten maklube vegetal we wouldn't have known the true food here, which is delicious. The maklube vegetal is like vegetable pulao or biryani where sweetness of vegetables and nuts elevated the whole dish. I wish I could take back the recipe along with the experience of its flavors.

Both my son and I are very picky about Lebanese food having been spoiled by the excellent Lebanese in our home town Los Angeles, so we ordered with trepidation. The very first must-try dish immediately set our minds at ease: please, do yourselves a favor and order their Fatoush salad. It's done so right, juicy tangy, bursting with flavors and the pita in the salad is made into a curly flower and gives a delicious crunch. We liked the dish of garbanzo and yogurt a bit less, as it was quite heavy and lacked flavor. My son was very pleased with shish tavouk with chicken, and I loved my halloumi dish. The service was slow (as everywhere in Barcelona) but it was efficient, and our Egyptian waiter had good recommendations for everything. He was funny and personable.

The meat was tender, seasoned well with a bit of a kick, yet not salty. There was a nice yogurt sauce that was a dressing for both the meat and salad. And the pita bread had a great chew to it. And this only costed €5.50! What a deal and it hit the spot!
