Al Shami - Oxford

Located in a peaceful neighborhood, this family-owned restaurant is a hidden treasure. With a wide variety of options for everyone, including vegetarians, the dishes are all delicious. Make sure to come hungry!

Food is amazing!! We ordered the family plate for 2-3 persons. We had three people eating and had food left. Great Mom and Pop Square. Very recommended.

The atmosphere of this place is very historical. Once entered asked if we have reservation which we did not. However still let us in and allowed us to sit where ever we wanted. I highly recommend to make a reservation on specially occasions as it may be busy. Falafel was delicious, however Humus was as not thick as it it should but I used it as a topping for the main food and made small little wraps-which given extra taste to it. The mains were also good however, the chicken could have been cooked a little longer. The food was also unsalted for my likings but again I am a person who likes salt the only negative part would be this and also not provided with a salt when asked :

The restaurant is good. however, like the one star review people, the waiting time for your food takes a long time, other than that, it's a good place. Recommend.

Once again, the Lebanese cuisine was exceptional and the atmosphere was perfect. The staff was very friendly, the food was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We will definitely be returning soon.
