I must admit their charcoal chicken was just awesome it's mandatory in my order whenever I visit them... And shawarma also too good to taste... Waiting to visit again
had grill chicken, shawarma and burger. the food tasted good. prices are ok sice its a mall. quantity can be improved. not many combo offers
My all time favourite place .
A place were u can get the delicious arabian food .
Grilled chicken -served with salads ,kuboos and garlic paste . Wich is healthy and good for health so instead of other junk i always prefer here. Its cheap and best.
Chicken shwarma - is mouth watering with the garlic paste with shredded veggies and shredded chicken.
This is exactly located in EA food court. One day we all were eating burger in KFC with whole family. There was one burger which was missing for one of my cousin. We missed ordering for him. How ever we were about to order KFC chicken bucket as well so we taught to order the burger along with that. By the time we went there was a huge crowd and big quee. We taught of trying something different instead of standing there for so long time and having the same regular food. We saw this place we first tried with the chicken burger in this place. Surprisingly it was too good. Then we ordered shawarma and grill chicken. Perfect grills...😋😋😋..
A great restaurant in EA Mall. The quantity and taste is extremely good and it's also value for money. The best thing is their quick service. The food is served piping hot in just 5minutes of wait.
We just ordered one shawarma and it was well done ! There are of course better Arabian restaurants out there, but this place doesn’t disappoint you ! Where they should improve is either they increase the net weight of their shawarma or bring down the cost ! Otherwise a decent restaurant.
This place was and will always be my favourite for chicken shawarma. How i miss this shawarma as i stopped eating chicken now :(. I was such an addict, this place has the best shawarma ever ever. I bet no where in chennai you can get shawarmas tastier than this. The juicy stuffing just moulds your taste buds. So satisfying. The way they make itself is very mouth watering. Absolutely worth the money and quantity.
I am great lover of araibian dishes.. especially chicken shawarma and grilled chicken.. I prefer this place to have araibian dishes whenever i visit EA mall.
Having located in EA it offers absolutely amazing chicken shawarmas with no negatives...Grilled chicken tasted good but it had too much of skin and flesh was really less..But din hav to wait for long..Service was gud
Are you looking for good taste with best quality? Reach here quickly!! Have a yummy finger licking ....U will find this place in the food court @Express Avenue Mall...Grilled chicken and barbeque chicken sandwich were awesome... Good service
Excellent outlet to visit in this mall. Decent pricing and great food from routine stuff a must visit place. Visited this outlet with 3 of my friends all on the same opinion.
A must visit every time i go to Express Avenue. Their grilled chicken is to die for. Perfect blend of taste with the kubboos and mayonnaise.
Not sure of their other dishes but just can't resist their grilled chicken. On the besssst. Chicken is well cooked and is juicy. And the masala is evenly spread with every bite. The mayo and kuboos just make it even more good.
My favourite place to have a quick bite or a full meal in EA.
The prices are very much pocket-friendly and the food is very much Arabian and delicious.
They could really expand their menu though.
There are only a few places in Chennai that serves lipspacking Shawarmas that are made the right way. Arabian Hut is one such place!
My first tryst with Arabian Hut happened years ago when I had their Shawarma from their outlet in Phoenix. From then, am just hooked into it. So now, whenever I go to either EA or Phoenix, Shawarma from Arabian Hut is a must!
I have tried their roll and well as plate shawarmas. They are both good in their own way! But my all time favourite starter would be their Chicken Nuggets along with Thoum! Trust me, it is a deadly combination to match fried chicken with garlic sauce but it is totally worth it!
Thus, if you are still searching for the best shawarmas in town, then you haven't heard about Arabin Hut!
Whenever I step into EA, never miss a chance to visit Arabian Hut for their Shawarma!!
Yep this outlet is meant for their kebabs, charcoal and shawarma!!! Could not tell it's the best shawarma I've ever tasted, but it's good 😊
It's located in the EA food court, and among other outlets it's indeed a saving grace for quick bites and starters!!
Service is good nothin much to barge. Taste is ok 👌, but felt quite overpriced when compared to others. Being residing in a mall, can't expect for less price. Would highly recommend for their charcoals and shawarma.
After a shopping spree, stepped in to this outlet for a delightful "Plate shawarma" and it was very good 👍👍

Think of shawarma.. Think of Arabian hut.. The best shawarma one have tu taste.. And that grill chicken is amazingly juicy.. The garlic paste is soo different and wonderful here.. Its soo gud for a hungry non veggie person..
Had this combo chicken biryani rice/big piece of chicken its was delicious n so yummy. Very well cooked the chicken big piece I think barbeque its yummy n rice was too.
Food quality is good. Delivery is fast. Price is little higher as it is inside mall. I tried grilled chicken there. It was good. Though they don't have much option.
A very well known name in all mall food courts, serves decent varieties with good taste.
Basically the idea of hanging out in a mall parking the car for hours spending time there having a meal.. is what most people do on weekends but am very much not into that!
But still that oc AC and window shopping stuff makes it worthwhile along with this outlet too.
Shawarma and Grilled are my go to anyday
I generally like their plate version just so you can customise your filling. And those pickles!
Grilled is quite normal with taste not fluctuating a lot
Too bad to see no Briyani on their menu
Ambience: Food court cant get silent
Service: Good
Taste: Acceptable
Ordered grilled chicken(rightly spiced on the spicier side) and shawarma both were good ...I think this place has the best grill and garlic mayo when compared to other places serving the same kind of food .
I have been missing my falafel after our return to India. I am searching for good falafel restaurants in Chennai for some weeks now. This place comes into that list .... Their falafels are good and the wrap is even better... We have nt finished with this place... It's a small place at the gf lobby / play area and difficult to miss it....
It's one of the common joint for us friend's to enjoy the grilled chicken from Arab Hut. The juicyness of the chicken and tenderness is just awesome.The amount of mayonnaise they provide is satisfying and the main thing is that they maintain their quality and standards through out the different outlets as well and that's the thing it's our favourite.
Went to their EA outlet. Had the Shawarma platter and Grilled chicken. The Shawarma was a big let down , kuboos was too hard and dry and the minced chicken was bland. The Grilled chicken however was decently prepared and was served in good quantity too.
If it is Grilled chicken, then, without any doubt it is Arabian Hut. They've been around for more than half a decade now, I have had Grilled in various locations of them and no complaints till now. While sometimes it might be oily, little over cooked and even that time they have tried to replace the entire one. The mayonnaise they give, even though not good for health is too tempting and finely made.
It's also one way of eating within the budget when you're in malls, so we had a whole grill chicken for 4 people and it was up to the mark.
Constant performer this !!!
A very decent joint for shawarma and grill chicken.very consistent every time I have had here. have tried the EA outlet only and not others, hence can't comment on other outlets.but I believe the quality and taste will be the same in all outlets.
Tender and juicy grill chicken with good masala...
But only disadvantage is they have their outlets only in malls...so if you visit the malls then it is a viable option..am not a mall person...
Imagine a hypothetical situation where a want a quick grab for shawarma , I have to park in the mall , and pay the premium parking and considering the long walk from parking to the food court and recharge your food card or search where it is !!!! Phew really a difficult task for a lazy person !!
If the management reads this review , humble request is open more outlets outside mall as well , cos I love ur shawarma and grills , and am damn sure there will be many like me !!!
Had grilled chicken and shawarma at this place. Nice taste. Good service. Loved the food. There is an option to wrap the shawarma on your own. Didn't try it. But you can give it a go. Seemed an interesting idea.
Had the zinger burger combo. The burger was decent, creamy and suited our sudden burger craving. French fries which came wit the combo was usual nd the qty was good. We also bought shawarma - nothing spectacular abt it . Perfect place to kill hunger and give taste buds a reasonable treat .

The food here is really great. Every time I go there, Shawarma is what I usually have. Their Shawarma platter is really great and the Shawarma roll is even better - one of the very best I've ever tasted.
LOVE THEIR SHAWARMA,KUBOOS & GRILLED CHICKEN
Whenever I visit EA, definitely will buy these items..
Never miss it, a must try.
Better to buy shawarma roll than their platter.
Getting place to sit in the foodcourt in weekends is big problem.

As I am a great fan of arabian food, thought of hitting this place for lunch while in EA.
Food: I tried a Non Veg combo meal, which had Chicken Biriyani, one piece Tandoori Chicken, Naan, gravy, Raitha and pepsi.
Biriyani was tasty and tandoori chicken was well cooked, spicy, hot and real yum. Naan and gravy was normal.
This place serves pretty decent Arabian cuisine. My favorite is the Shawarma rolls. The grills are really tasty and the speed of delivering the food is up to the promise done during the billing stage. If you're really hungry and wanna have a quick decent bite then try here.
I have had my lunch and dinner at dis place many times..the grilled chicken is soo spicy tasty and yummy along with the kubus and veggies served..the shawarma roll also tastes good.
Been there several times. Love their grilled chicken served with pita bread and garlic sauce.
Yum!!!
Other preparations are not as tasty. The grilled chicken is also their most popular dish. So you know it's fresh.
It's a superb restaurant to get some Arabian cuisine dishes and on that my favorite is chicken shawarma roll and not only that I love all Arabian food of course. According to this restaurant I'm giving this choice.. Simply delicious.. So happy.
The most crowded place India express food Court
The grilled chicken is one of the kind and it is one of the favourite of my entire family the chicken burger is standard part and the wings and popcorn chicken are the signatures
This service is little bit slow as it is not a proper restaurant which cannot employee more than 2 to 3 people because of the place constrain
Must visit when you visit the mall
As part of the long line of eateries available, I like this place for the ever famous shwarma, but the shwarma plate which is just yum, with 2 kaboose and loads of Mayo and chicken fillings, it's absolutely heavenly. Yet very over priced, you can always order the shawarma roll, but then again the quantity is just very low for it's price, it's just half the size of an actual roll, so it isn't fun just eating something so small that you hardly pay anything for. It's yummy yes, but it needs to work on it's quantity and pricing.
Tried shawarma here on Sunday. This joint seems to be crowded always, probably the only decent NV stall in the FC. Quick service and above average taste for the money and the rush
Detailed at the top short rev at the end. (EA Mall)
the Food.
The Food was good, the shawarma roll is really good and the fat free roast chicken is the roast chicken that you get everywhere else. Yum. But not fat free.
the Other Things
The staff is okay, the pieces that were given were alright but cut in mediocre manner.
DO NOT EAT THE SALADS. They're not safe or hygienic.
Short Rev. Good food for a good pay! Definitely satisfactory or above ! And a .5 for the Shawarma@
I would say the taste it good. The shawarmas and the grilled chicken are done well. You can try those items. I did not have a good experience with the other outlets in the city, But these folks at EA are doing it well. Nothing to mention about the ambiance as you have to take the seats in the food court.
Overall good. Can Visit!
I can never be less hungry when it comes to the Arabian Hut.Amazing place .Whenever I think of having a shawarma ,this is the place which hits my mind.They serve the best shawarma in town.Of course , one should not just walk out having a shawarma .A try to the grill chicken is a must.
Price is quite okay in a place like EA
worth for the shawarma
Do try the shawarma
Not the best in Chennai but worth a try if u visit EA ..
This place is well known for it's grill chicken and shwarma.My all time favourite is broasted chicken,crispy juicy chicken made with a different batter is so delicious.I like their shawarma meat and kubus too.A nice place to have a quick bite at EA
my destiny for grilled chicken... uff lot of masala... so good u know.. pls give it a try.. its worthy.. authentic indian taste.. i swear ull be licking the plate even after its over😋😋like we did... its so good.. dont miss it👍🏼👍🏼
After having a bad experience in one of their branches at Mylapore, thought to give a try here. So just ordered shawrma platter and barbecue sandwich. The taste was pretty good. Service here is also fast.
I love Arabian Hut for their shawarmas. After Zaitoon, this is my favorite for shawarmas in chennai. This was the first time I tried the outlet in EA. I am happy to report that the shawarmas and the shawarmas platter are both as good as the citi centre outlet. *thumbs up* Of course, being in a food court, finding a place to sit can be annoying.
Accompanied my friend to this place as I had no intentions to eat but decided to eat grill chicken and my review is based on just that. The chicken was soft and tender and definitely worth every penny but the service was a bit slow.
In my opinion they serve the best grilled chicken in chennai, their garlic sauce is also the best i've had. Their shawarma is good too but I generally order the grilled chicken as it is enough to fill me up.
Had their shawarma roll and zinger burger..I had much expectations on the shawarma than the burger..But to my surprise the zinger burger was the show stealer..The ketchup provided got along with it so well..juicy pieces of chicken and mayo and veggies made the burger extraodinary..shawarma roll was also gud..but the burger was the best in my view.
When Express Avenue started , this was one of the best joints for Arabian Chicken and Shawarma.
They used to add french fries to Shawarma roll to make it taste even better. But over the course of 5 years the size of the full chicken underwent a slimming program. Hence the VFM tanked and for a food court this is expensive now.
It's been loooooooong time since I had their food but my fav was Charcoal grill chicken which was soo good and tender.. I think ppl who din't try, should try them..
The perfect place to get some arabian food in the food court of Express Avenue mall. The tastiest grill chicken in the city is available here. The shawarma is also good in taste, not the best though. Chicken is perfectly grillled with the right amount of marinade in it which gives this legendary grill chicken, that goes so well instead of just keep searching for shops in the entire food court
Strongly recommend Arabian grilled chicken. The masala is very good and nicely grilled. The chicken is soft well cooked unlike other places. For those of you overfed with the broasted chicken, this is a breath of fresh air.

My first experience with arabian hut. I was like okay okay, being a veggie. My friend died for its taste.
Open in the mall, you need a food court card to order. Service is fast enough.
I had a veg falafel shwarma. The sauces were juicy and one of the best I've ever tasted but the patty was poorly cooked and spoiled my review.
But my friend gave rave reviews about the Chicken shwarma. He absolutely loved every bit of it.
The price was ok for the taste they serve.
Bottomline - Brilliant. Worth a try.
Taste:4/5 ; Ambiance:N.A ; Service:N.A ; Value for Money:4/5
One of best place for having arabian food in chennai...located in food court of E.A which is always crowded.....they dont serve lot of items...just grill chicken with other snack items like shawarama and burgers...
Parking : Its a mall...so no need to worry abt it...
Ambiance : Food court...mostly crowded...
Service : Self Service....but good friendly people in the counter...
Taste : The shawarama here is really good...perfectly made....really juicy and sufficient for one....be sure u also try their grill chicken with kuboos and onions...best in chennai.....it tastes heavenly along with garlic paste...the burgers and sandwiches are also a good buy...broasted chicken is also best here.....plz try this place atleast once...u wont regret it....
Must Try : Shawarama and Grill chicken....
Value for Money : Based only on the taste...u get what u pay for...worth it...
Note : They Accept only EA's food card......
When I see or hear Arabian hut the first thing comes to my mind is grilled chicken and shawarma !!
One of the best Arabian cuisine (not entirely) best priced and amazing food in short.
I had My second best shawarma here and till now when ever I visit Arabian hut
my first order will be that.. Whatever I had in here were delicious and tasty ! I love the minus they serve for all the tandoori or grilled ( common side ) . Overall a must try for shawarma and grilled chicken !
Happy hogging!
Very enjoyable meal. Falafel schwarma and hubby had half a chicken. Will be back. Quality of food very food and very tasty. Reasonable price also
I dont get any words in my mind to describe about their grill chicken. Wowwww i hav never tasted such a tender , soft grill chicken in my life time.
Im addicted to this place. Every month atleast twice i get to this place & i hav tried each & every item in their menu. Platter,shawarma roll , bbq chicken every dish tasted delicious & finger licking. chicken lovers must visit this grill galaxy.
Grill here very good. Tastes great. They have a limited menu and they take long time as its a foodcourt there are many people with you especially on weekends.. If you try on weekdays chicken may not be fresh check that and go on.. Grill tastes so good here

And who would say when it comes to tasty and perfectly cooked grill chicken! In one of the most crowded food court at Express Avenue most of the chicken lovers first sight would be the chicken that is being grilled. This place is crazy and they are poured with orders during the weekends.
Each time we visit EA I guess my sister pulls us there, so she can grab her favorite shawrma. I love their menu; though it is limited, they are clear about what they want to serve and what they specialize themselves. The shawrma chicken roll, is deliciousness, with the yummy shredded chicken, veggies, fries and garlic paste. Also, their shawrma chicken platter is one of the best if you want to make your own rolls! Yes, they give a plate full of shredded chicken n veggies mix along with 2 kuboos and garlic paste.
One of most loved dish of theirs would definitely be the full/half grilled chicken, the chicken is juicy with perfection when it comes to the marination or the moistness or the spice levels! And the one thing that I love the most is their garlic paste, which goes so well with the grilled chicken. It is heavenly to dip in your moist yummy chicken piece into the garlic paste and taste it, Awww!
And VFM, yes it is worth for what you eat. Here goes my verdict - quality, quantity, VFM - 4/5 and taste, Variety (though it is limited they are clear about what they want to serve) - 4.5/5. A place for all the chicken lovers!
Well, what can I say about this place!! This is one of the few places I visit often. It's one of the best places for Shawarma & grilled chicken.. they serve burgers too, which i'll be trying the next time I get there.
Perfectly cooked Chicken, and the Shawarma is "whoa! how awesome is that"!
Orders are attended to quickly...
The garlic paste is really amazing.
Edited review after a recent visit (date 09-11-2017) below:
We'd ordered the grilled chicken. To my surprise, the taste was just, not there!
YOU CAN EAT HERE, if you haven't been here before.
I've had one too many bad experiences with outlets in food courts that I haven't set foot in one for a couple of years now. But hunger pangs took over one fine evening before we were supposed to catch a movie at Escape and so we landed up in the food court of EA and zeroed in on Arabian Hut. I hadn't read any reviews about this place and went there just by instinct and it didn't disappoint us..
Our order was simple: a chicken shawarma roll and a chicken zinger burger. The shawarma roll was tasty.. The filling seemed to have equal quantities of chicken and veggies.. But since it was flavorful we didn't mind..Increasing the proportion of chicken will make it taste even better. The sandwich again was good. There were fried chicken pieces with mayo and tomato sauce in a hot dog bun. Both were filling and calmed down our growling bellies until dinner. Priced reasonably, the items are worth the price. Earlier reviews have all praised the grilled chicken. I know what I am having the next time I visit Arabian Hut.
Had been here for dinner last night after krispe kreme. Had heard many people talking about the grill chicken over here. So tried the grill chicken and the shawarma. The grill chicken was perfectly cooked and tasted superb only that it was little bit salty , if that was balanced then it will be one of the best grill chicken which I had till date. The Shawarma tasted good , but too many vegetables they add. The pricing I feel is quiet expensive when compared to other places maybe cuz of the high rent. Else it is a good place to eat at that food court and if u are a fitness freak.
Excellent chicken shawarma rolls. If you are in chennai and looking for good delicious shawarma's, Arabian hut,EA is your place. Arabian hut in skywalk is one of the worst outlets of Arabian hut. I once spotted a grilled which was almost spoilt.please don't dare to have your food in Arabian hut skywalk. And I mean it. Even Arabian hut in Phoenix is not that good.
Arabian Hut is one of the best restaurants at Express Avenue, and their "Broasted Chicken" is truly enjoyable. For those looking for a healthier option, Shawarma and Grilled chicken are very good alternatives.

Quite addicted to the shawrma rolls you guys make. Whenever we visit express avenue,our first preference when it comes to eating is undoubtedly arabian hut. You guys make the best shawrma roll in the city! Keep it up.
This is the best restaurant for having Arabian foods. Shawarmas r great & also grill chickens r the best in chennai.
This place is a hangout spot for all the foodie who visit EA @royapettah I visited and ordered egg biriyani and tangadi kebab the order came quick and also it was less spicy very delicious
Love their broasted chicken burgers and shawarmas!
For quick and hygienic shawarma, Kebab and grills you can choose this place. Maintaining the same quality and taste always and all time
The best shawarma in Chennai. Amazing taste and same consistency throughout the years. Their chicken Biriyani is subtle and well balanced in taste. ✌🏻
Chicken grill tastes great, the quantity and the price are reasonable.
Pretty decent place. Some items are good, some are a bit dry. But if you're in a rush you can check it out.

Place where one will get traditional tamil meals and other food options. Usually peiple prefer full meals here. Chicken biriyani is also a good choice. Rates are affordable for middle class people. Cleanliness is ok. Mostly crowded during lunch time
Great taste and service is good.
