A casual and chill atmosphere with some good dishes while some were average. The pistachio walnut dip was delicious and definitely the highlight! Loved the unique flavour. Falafel was on the drier side. We went at a time where it wasn’t busy at all but staff were not attentive and service was rather slow.

Unfortunately waiters were overwhelmed and service disrespectful with no communication and no interest. We didn't feel welcome and included. It is understandable that people are fasting, but this is not a reason to deprioritise those who are not. Or this should be clearly communicated from the beginning. We were the first customers to arrive at 7pm and almost the last to leave after 1h25min waiting and looking at every other table having a great dinner... We only got Baba Ghanouj (twice), Chilli Walnut Diph, Fattoush, Meat Kafta and BBQ Chicken of the Classic Arabella banquet menu. Everything else were not served and just forgotten without notice (Hummus, Tabouleh, Falafel, Ladies Finger, Arabella Coriander Potatoes and Araais). When we left and and paid the bill, we complained, and the managers provided us with take away with almost everything that was missing, with their apologies.. Indeed, we got what we paid for at the end but not really the experience we could have expected from a Lebanese restaurant... disappointing :-(

Arabella Lebanese Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience. The mezze platter was a standout, with each dish offering a unique flavor profile. The mix plate was cooked to perfection and the portion sizes were generous. The service was attentive and the ambiance was warm and inviting. Overall, I highly recommend Arabella for authentic Lebanese cuisine.

I came here with friends on my birthday 🎂 The atmosphere, music, and food were all fantastic. It’s the best Middle Eastern food I’ve ever had. This place is great for celebrating birthdays they even sprinkled pistachio powder for me, which was really fun! 😝Thanks for making such happy memories
