They served the best Sharwarma in City. Disappointing when your favourite food shop closes.
Kindly take the pain of updating from 'open now' to 'closed'.

The best place in the city for SHAWARMA!!!!
I especially go to Forum just to have this.It is soo delicious that even the thought of it makes my mouth water💖
One thing I don’t like is that till now food is being served in thermocol plates and now it’s high time that BURP changes their serveware.

Nice joint for the Arabian cuisine lovers......the chicken is fresh and juicy....
Pricing is very economical....the ambience of burp is good and ideal for families....
However......will give 5 stars to the southcity joint as the master chef is managing that outlet.....though is one is not at all disappointing.....the other one will get you on cloud 9.......

After a roam at the mall(half closed), we needed a light meal for 2 of us, we chose this place from the food court.

We ordered, Chicken Shawarma Salad with Pita and Hummus.
They said they didn't have hummus, thus, they replaced with mayo. It was tasty, and the quantity was sufficient for 2 of us with a full dose of breakfast in the morning 2hrs back. It's enough for 1 with an empty tummy. Pita bread was too dry, and had butter in between them, but didn't taste the butter.
Deducted a bit of points because, with previous pictures on Zomato, ours had lesser chicken and more veggies.

Good service, took 5 mins in total. Good behavior too.
Slightly overpriced.

Chicken Shawarma with pita and humus: ₹ 160 (at the time of our visit)

We were served with one chicken shawarma roll. The Shawarma was juicy and had enough fillings. I love the humus, but the plain pita bread was too dry for me. Overall, good experience.

Had ordered shawarma salad with pita and humus. It was served hot. Pita was soft. Salad contained way more capsicum and onion than pieces of chicken. Other than that, it was really good to taste.

Ordered the chicken shawarma which tasted pretty much average. The delivery time is not much and the presentation is also very basic. I don't think I'll give it a second try.

Located in the food court of Forum Mall,this place is most likely the pioneer of Lebanese food in Calcutta.

I have tried out their Chicken Shawarma Roll,Shawarma Salad and Sandwich back when attended coaching classes nearby.

The items can be considered overpriced for the portions served and their sister branch at Spencer's, South City Mall is way better in all aspects.

Ar-han-thai is one of the many food court outlets at the Forum mall. They offer thai and middle eastern dishes. The most notable ones from the menu are the chicken lebanese kebabs (middle eastern brethren of our kababs) and the shwarma. The shwarma is one of the best I have had in Kolkata, and I would definitely recommend it to others. The service is also fast.

But then again, the thai food was not noteworthy at all. If someone is looking for a quick bite of shwarma or kebabs at a pocket friendly price, this is the place to order to.

My colleague and I had visited this outlet for Chicken Shawarma rolls some years ago. We had already eaten the same item from the Spencer’s food court at South City Mall, but this one tasted way better. One reason could be the fact that we went there before noon, and were actually the first customers. The chicken on the rotisserie was fresh, and we also asked the kiosk attendant to roast the pita before making our wraps. The succulent chicken pieces complemented the crisp bread to make a toothsome combo :P

Ar-Han-Thai is your one-stop place to get Middle Eastern food in Forum Mall, Elgin. Food here is pretty good. Recently I had ordered a Chicken Shawarma from this joint. I received my order in a nicely wrapped manner with a side of pickle and salad. The shawarma was tasty and the stuffing inside was generous. The service here is more or less fast and the staff is well-behaved and friendly.

This place is known for their shawarma and was possibly the first restaurant to serve it in Kolkata. I've been having their shawarma from here since I was a child. It had a generous amount of chicken shawarma , with capsicum and tomatoes and lots and lots of sauce consisting mainly of yogurt , mint, mustard and mayonnaise. It's served in a pita bread with green chutney and a salad on the side. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very balanced. The pita bread was also toasted well and there were many textures of crunch, softness and chewiness in it. It was full of flavour. A must try for some authentic Lebanese food enthusiasts.

Their first branch was opened in the food court of the forum. Kolkata experienced the taste of shawarma for the first time. The white thick sauce and a pinch of green chutney adds a dashing flavour to the burnt chicken roti roll.

This was one of the first places serving lebanese food. The chicken shawarma roll is very good. Its very filling and tasty. Even their chicken salad is very good.
They have opened another outlet in raharjat, so dont need to travel too much for my lebanese cravings.
Prices are reasonable and worth trying.

I remember this place as the first ever joint serving shawarma salads and rolls. All I knew, they served yummy white rolls full of veggies n meat!

Since then, my city has seen many outlets serving Lebanese food. Gladly, they decided to open in Rajarhat as well.

But really hope, they open an outlet in Salt Lake as well!

One of my most favourite places of Chicken Shawarma and they are too good with all the items they make. Though they don't have too many items in their menu but whatever they have they do justice to that. The most special item which they are known for is the Chic mlken Shawarma Salad. Grilled Chicken, Mayonnaise, Salad with some magic in hand, and that's how they prepare. The Chicken Grilled Sandwich is another item which they have speciality in.
This outlet can be easily located. You will easily get this place in Burrp, food court of Forum Mall.
So a definite go to place for Shawarma lovers, as this place wont disappoint you for sure.

3.5/5 only for my love for Shawarma and their preparation.

Sneaking the picture of the stall was a bit awkward but I'm totally in love with this place. I was in a search of good chicken sawarma and chicken sawarma salad. This place is indeed a boon. It tasted yum and drove me crazy. Though the prices are on the higher side, this place is worth opting for and is value for money. If you are a Lebanon delicacy lover then without a second thought you can bump in. The service is prompt and you would usually get a table there.
Do visit! :D

As the name suggests, Ar-Han-Thai is a small food stall located in Forum Mall food court that deals in Thai and mainly Lebanese food. Since I don't often get to enjoy Lebanon food and was trying out Lebanese after a long time and must say that it really paid off well.

Ordered a Chicken Shawarma and a Chicken Shawarma Salad as suggested by the guy at the counter. The Chicken Shawarma was fine and served with pudina chutney and sliced onions. The Shawarma Salad was quite good and was sufficient quantity for two. It came with big pieces grilled and creamy chicken shawarma.

Pricing is quite descent but it would have been better if it was on a slightly lower side. Service was quick and order was prepared under five minutes or so. Staff was quite helpful in suggesting us what to order.

Well finally, its a quite good place and considering the scarce options available at Forum's food court, it is not a bad idea to try out some stock Lebanese delicacies.

Travelers delight!
After a long travel and being new to the city , nothing was really striking a cord with me until I ate here! The shwarmas of my hometown and that here were so similar.
However the classic pickles are a bit different here.
The green chutney is a welcome addition!
The chicken pieces were warm and creamy and it was highly fulfilling!

The ultimate place for having chicken shawarma - as claimed by one of my friends. Initially I was a little bit skeptical of trying the dish bt was reassured that I will not be disappointed. N surely I was NOT. That was the best shawarma I have ever had till date. Its wayyyyy better in terms of taste n quantity than that of Go Lebanese which has quite a high rating on zomato. The service is quick n the staffs are very helpful. N they charge u only Rs 120 for that heavenly dish. Loved it...

Chicken Shawarma! The first thing that comes to my mind when I think about this place. About 4-5 years back I was wandering around the food court of forum with my friend deciding what to eat. We came across Ar Han Thai. On the menu they had Chicken Shawarma and we were skeptical about it. But the chef assured us that it was the most popular item on the menu. So we gave it a try. It was great!! From that day onward I had made my relatives, my friends and my colleagues to try it out and all of them had the same verdict. It was priced at Rs. 80 then. Now it is around Rs. 120. The quality hasn’t deteriorated over the same. Nothing stops me from having it.

Ar-Han-Thai at both Forum and South City are stalls and not really restraunts.

The biggest problem with the outlet at spencers, axis mall, is the lack of options. The menu is limited, more so due to the unavaibility of several dishes listed in the menu. The chicken salad and the chicken shawarma are two dishes that I have tried and will definitely recommend. The food is really good and extremely heavy. Satisfying and not too taxing on the pocket either.

Yet another food court outlet of Forum serving some quality munchies. Known to provide good Shawarma, I tried the Chicken Shawarma, ( which I had after a long time ) and the Grilled Chicken Mayonnaise Sandwich, both of which were very yummy!! and filling. Filled with the tasty chicken mayo combination along with some veggies and served with a mint chutney and onion dipped in vinegar, it serves for an excellent bite. The Sandwich, surprisingly, tasted a tad better than the Shawarma. A very refreshing and welcome change from the usual pizzas and burgers. The price was also quite reasonable. A very good option for mall hoppers.

Ar-Han-Thai – A 'thai' name in Ar-Han-Thai but they sell shawarmas.
===========================================================

Brief: Located in the Burp Food court, Forum mall. Planned to visit it today. The Chicken shawarma was looking much better than that of the usual Spencer’s South City mall’s Ar han Thai. The staffs were much courteous enough to serve as I wanted too.

===========================================================
Food ordered:

1) Ordered one chicken shawarma. It costs 120 bucks exact. The shawarma was not served to me in usual pita but a little heated maida roti. The chicken and the vegetables were topped with usual mayo and nothing extraordinary. I was served with Green chutney, Chillies and Onion. It was good enough. It was neither great nor too bad. The chunks of chicken made up for it though.

===========================================================
Pros:

o Hygiene is not an issue here.
o Courteous staffs.
o Well-stuffed Wrap.
o Quality was moderate.
o Reasonably priced as per mall standards


Cons:

o The roll could taste better with little modifications and variations.
===========================================================

Meal for two – 300 bucks(Max)

===========================================================
Conclusion:

Ar-han-thai is one of the places in Kolkata which started off the Shawarma concept. They were located right beside Aliah hotel. However, couldn't work well so somehow their USP fell. It again revived back though.

I would surely give it a visit again. If you want to stuff yourself when you are too hungry, this is the place. As i was hungry, i hogged in the roll a bit. Btw, i have attached the pic of the chicken chunks which can be seen. Yumm. Pictures taken from Iphone.

One of the first people to introduce Shawarma's to Kolkata and still going strong !!!! At one time I used to visit the Food Court weekly for my Chicken Shawarma Fix and at least in terms of flavor and taste the still whip up a pretty good Chicken Shawarma .... yes its not completely authentic and flavors are tweaked to suit local tastes but its quite tasty and always fresh. The Shawarma size has shrunk somewhat and the price has certainly increased but its still a good option not to mention a tasty wrap. The Wanton's and Spring rolls are also not too bad and the soups are also decent.

If you happen to be at the food court of Forum Mall, and not looking forward to the usual Pizza Hut or Subway, this counter is highly recommended. I've tasted the Chicken Shawarma and the Grilled Chicken Mayonnaise Sandwich from this place......and they were both really good. The shawarma was filled with chicken and mayonnaise in the perfect combination and served with a mint chutney. Just the way I like it. Can't comment on how authentic or Lebanese it is....but all that matters is that it was yummy ! The Sandwich was awesome as well....quiet filling and delicious. What I liked about this place is that the Chicken items were not filled with bell peppers or onions, like it is at some places. So, if you are nearby, do give this place a try. :)

This is one of the first eateries in Calcutta to introduce Shawarma wraps which has taken Calcutta by storm these days. While after researching a bit you realize that what is served as Shawarma isn't authentic even at Ar-han-thai ,the wraps served are a raging hit. With the right blend of mayonnaise and Lebanese garlic sauce the wraps are delectable. The meat is succulent with the right texture and the wraps are enough for a proper meal along with some fruit juice etc. The Iranian chicken kebabs are quite tasty and on a whole this place serves excellent wraps. They do charge a bit extra for take-aways but the charges are nominal. The prices are pocket friendly for students and people on a budget.

Chicken Shawarma Roll is very well done and also chicken falafel is very tasty. I wou suggest you to try their chicken tikka grilled sandwich and even the chicken shawarma. You will love those. Hotdogs are also very tasty.
Overall a nice restaurant.
I would rate 3.5 for Ar-Han-Tai.

Rating this 4/5 for only chicken shavarma.

This is one of the best places in Kolkata where you will find very tasty chicken shavarma's.
PRICE: Rs 115 incld taxes.
I haven't really tried the other items on the menu, so will not be able to comment on that and more importantly it is only the shavarma which makes this places popular.

LOCATION: Forum Food court


Wud recommend Kolkatan's to try it.


P.S- Park your car outside the mall to avoid heavy parking charges during weekends and have an extra chicken shavarma. They charge Rs 50/per hr. :-)
