La experiencia en el restaurante Arabia fue simplemente excepcional. La atención fue muy amable y rápida, siempre pendientes de cada detalle. La comida estaba deliciosa, llena de sabores auténticos que te transportan. El ambiente es acogedor y elegante, perfecto para disfrutar una velada especial. Fátima, muchísimas gracias ☺️

Visité el restaurante ARABIA y fue una experiencia maravillosa. La comida estaba exquisita, el ambiente era súper acogedor, y sobre todo, la atención de la chica *kawtar* que nos atendió fue excepcional. Con su sonrisa y amabilidad, hizo que nos sintiéramos como en casa, con total confianza. Sin duda, volveré muy pronto❤️💪🏻

Ayer fui con un grupo a cenar , la camarera hanane muy simpática y buena atención, nos explicó los platos así podemos entender mejor. Volveremos ya que todo lo que nos recomendó estaba buenísimo .

La experiencia fue muy buena, lugar ambientado ,limpio, música árabe , los camareros amables. Se puede fumar shisha en el local . Los platos son pequeños pero contundentes.

Muy buena experiencia. El restaurante es bonito, con una decoración cuidada y acogedora. El equipo es amable y atento. Pedimos un tajín de pollo y un tajín de cordero, ambos estaban deliciosos, bien condimentados y con la carne muy tierna. Sin duda, volveremos.

Comida árabe auténtica y sabrosa con muy buena atención en pleno centro de la ciudad condal. Pedimos una bandeja variada, cada platillo es indispensable, y un té con menta que viene con unas pastas deliciosas, repetiremos seguro. ¡No cambiéis!

Estamos de vacaciones en Barcelona y decidimos venir aquí la primera noche. Hoy es nuestra última noche y hemos decidido volver porque el lugar es simplemente maravilloso. El ambiente recuerda perfectamente a un típico pueblo árabe; la comida es muy abundante, variada, saciante, especial, sabrosa y, sobre todo, típica de la tierra árabe. No se trata de una simple cena, sino de una auténtica experiencia que recomendamos a todos. El personal es muy educado y servicial y, al final de la cena, ofrecen unos dulces realmente deliciosos. En particular, quien nos acompañó desde el inicio hasta el final de la cena fue Fátima, que desde el momento en que entramos fue amabilísima, cordial, sonriente e inclusiva. Nos sentimos realmente muy a gusto. Volveremos pronto a respirar la tierra árabe, aquí en el “Arabia Cafè Restaurante”, del que nunca nos cansaremos.

The Environment and Food is tremendous! Everyone here is very hospitable. Our waitress, Hannan, took great care of us. This is the best middle eastern restaurant in Barcelona by far!

Amazing food and decor ! Real arabian cuisine and great presentation of the plates. I would like to thank Hanan in particular for her service and warm welcome. 🤩

I would like to give big praise to Al Arabiya Restaurant & Café. The service was truly excellent – the staff were friendly, helpful, and made me feel welcome from start to finish. The food was also absolutely amazing: fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Plenty of taste, and the portions were just right. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed, and you can really feel that they care about quality and the guests’ experience. I can highly recommend this place to anyone who wants great service and delicious food. I will definitely be coming back!

We ordered 3 starters-humus, cheese sticks and pita bread. All tasted great. 3 mains- grilled fish, rice with chicken and lamb. All were excellent taste, especially the fish. Fresh and well seasoned.

The restaurant vibe is tremendously beautiful. Both Vicky and Hannan had made the overall experience very comfortable. The food was too good, perfect portion and very much Arabian spices. Will come again and would highly recommend if you’re visiting Barcelona !!!

Best Arabic food in Barcelona. Variety of authentic dishes with fresh baked bread. Quick service, nice arabic, elegant style setting with best music.

Ihad a great experience at this Middle Eastern restaurant in Barcelona. The atmosphere is warm and beautifully decorated with authentic oriental details. The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was very friendly and attentive. A perfect place to enjoy good food and a relaxing vibe in the city

Comida rica y deliciosa, el personal muy amable , la única cosa que no me gusta en mismo sitio de comer hay gente fumando chicha a lado y humo molesta mucho.

Un lugar espectacular si tienes antojo de comida árabe. Está en el Born, barrio gótico de Barcelona lo que lo hace ubicado PERO en la noche quizá se pueda sentir un poco inseguro el ambiente por tanto inmigrante homeless rondando. No me gustó que no hay CocaCola xq tienen un “boy cvt”con empresas de US4 (No entiendo que tiene que ver eso… pero ok.) La comida 8/10 Servicio 8/10 Ambiente 7/10

Good atmosphere, good food quality including value to cost ratio. However, visited the place twice and each time had one plate missed out hence the lesser stars on the "Service" area

We are visiting Barcelona from 🇬🇧. We went to this restaurant today. Good quality food but took a long time to get it served. It was around 430 pm on a Tuesday, so not peak hours. Food portion size is very good so is quality, justify 5 stars. Average per person is 20 Euros minus any drinks (even bottled water).

I came here with my wife and sister in law while visiting Barcelona. We were craving some Mediterranean food, so we said we would give this place a try. We ordered mixed grill, chicken kebsa, and scallop chicken. Quantity is reasonable for the money you pay. Overall, taste was very good and texture is spot on. They do lack salt however, and there is no salt shakers available on table. I waited and waited for someone to pass by and ask for one, but it took a while, so I just gave up and ate it the way it is!

Unfortunately my review doesn’t match others, it is a really nicely decorated place in a good location, with friendly staff, however I was disappointed with the food. We ordered fattoush, hummus and mixed grilled meats. The fattoush, although had the flavours there, seemed like wasn’t fresh. The crispy bread in there was good but the actual salad vegetables were old. I can’t complain about the hummus and bread, these were perfect, and the hummus was v creamy & nice. The mixed grilled meats was what I was most disappointed with. The meats were old, hard to chew and the lamb / beef smelt odd. The chips on the dish were again, old, stale and even cold. I had to ask for them to be replaced but I should’ve also asked for the meats to be replaced, however at this point I was just annoyed and wanted to finish up and leave. The staff didn’t check up on us during the meal and it was hard to get their attention. Maybe this was a one off as I know it has lots of excellent reviews but unfortunately my experience wasn’t good here.

Visited this Arab cuisine restaurant in the center of Barcelona. On the positive side, the place is spacious and the interior looks quite authentic. However, the food was a huge disappointment. I ordered shawarma and ribs – both were terrible. The ribs were overcooked and dry, while the shawarma had completely tasteless meat. Honestly, I expected much more from a central location in Barcelona. With so many amazing restaurants around, this one is definitely not worth the visit.

​"Ayer fui al Café Arabia con expectativas por su buena puntuación, pero la experiencia fue muy frustrante. Pedimos el Tajín de cordero y estaba extremadamente seco, hasta el punto de que costaba masticarlo y se hacía una bola en la boca, imposible de tragar. ​Lo peor no fue la comida, sino la actitud del personal. Al comentarle a la camarera que la carne estaba seca, su respuesta fue que 'el Tajín de cordero es así'. Es una falta de respeto al cliente y a la cocina marroquí intentar hacer pasar un error de cocción (o un plato recalentado) como una característica del plato. Un Tajín debe ser meloso y tierno, no una suela de zapato. ​No volveré. Si buscas un cordero jugoso y que se deshaga, este no es el sitio."

I do not understand why this restaurant has such high reviews. I went there with a family (there were 6 of us). The apetizers were good however the mains were a total disappointment. Kefta (we ordered two), too dry, too salty, essentially inedible (we left it unfinished), grilled chicken and lamb: again grilled too long, too dry and burnt (we had two of these). The lamb dish was relatively fine besides both the lamb and the rice too salty (we had two of these). Essentially at these prices, food unacceptable. The service was just average. Would not recommend.
