Cool interior ok ok good located in Bandra do visit for the ambiance love the location and the interior
The food quality is amazing and even the taste is good. The chicken Shawrma is good and also pretty healthy. The lamb tikka is also good.
Our Review:
Arbab refers to The one in command, The Master, The Boss, in Bandra that advertises: “Lebanese cuisine, French in style, Arabic in soul.” Starting our meal with hummus which was dense, slick on the surface with an olive oil spill, topped with sliced radishes and served with a thin, fluffy bread. Those looking to add more to every bite will find the same side of pickled root vegetables, a brilliant mint-onion-cilantro combination and yogurt sauce. Also, strongly recommended are Zattar Manakish which is probably the best in town, Fattoush salad was not just tasty and healthy, Tabbouleh was as authentic as it could get. Considering Covid Special measures have been taken in place and that includes staff are checked regularly for temperature and are being given all the safety gear necessary. Overall if you love Arabic food and don’t wish to create a dent in your wallet than this your place to be.
Being a fan of Shwarma I ordered the chicken Shwarma platter for my mid night craving. It surely did not disappoint me. The Chicken Shwarma was different in every possible way to the normal Shwarma we are accustomed to.
It was accompanied with fries and an amazing dip to go along. The cost maybe a bit on the higher side but the taste makes up for it.
The packaging is also neat to avoid any spillage.
I’m someone that eats more hummus than any other food group. So much of it that I categorise hummus into its own food group. Having said that, I’ve tried the hummus at every possible location in South Mumbai and Bandra, and I have yet to come across a hummus more delicious than the one at Arbab. I often dream of the hummus Beiruty - it’s the most divine thing you will try. And to make your dining more difficult, it’s only one of many delicious items on Arbabs menu. I wish I lived in bandra so I could order from Arbab every single day.
Awesome palce for mouthwatering Lebanese food. Their kebabs n all meat items are too delicious to skip. Must try place. Ambience is nice. Good vibes. I had the shawrma platter with came with some garlic sauce n trust me that elevated the flavour.
My go to place for chicken shawarma. It’s not too richly lathered in sauces and not dry either - just right. And well packaged. Been ordering here for almost a year and never had an unpleasant experience. Good to see them back in business post the lockdown. Cheers!
Great experience. Will visit again.Everything from the food,ambience and service was superb. Service staff Fazal was very good and made us feel comfortable and welcome.
Great food and service by the team, especially Shabaz Malik. Loved the vibe and the authenticity of the place. Will definitely visit Arbab again in the future for great Lebanese food.
A must visit place for Nonveg food n sheesha lovers, the will make u feel like sitting in some UAE restaurant.

Ms Sania Khan was fabulous
this place is vibing by the exotic cars near the entrance and the atmosphere they have made. Food was very good. Some people wouldnt like because they expect indian masala foods while this is a Lebanese cuisine.
Shawarma, Shish Tawouk and chicken mandi rice was superb. Also, good service by staff Fazal. a very good guy.
The best of Middle east! And amazing hospitality by their staff...this place is a delight and a must visit if you have got a thing for lebanese cuisine.A special mention for Shahbaz for his amazing hospitality.
Will surely visit again for the best Ckn Shawarma and the bestest Kunafah!
Karl was amazing! He served us so well and also described each dish perfectly. We ordered for a chicken starter Shish Towouk and veg falafel, sheesha and watermelon, orange juice. The juices were so fresh. Food super yummy and sheesha was so godddamn amazing. I am coming back for sure for food and amazing service here,❤️
Absolutely awesome food - the dips have been a little Indianised - but I believe the spices are imported from Lebanon.
Special mention - Mr Fazal who was very courteous & suggested perfect recommendations.
All the food was very delicious. Hummus, sweet potato chips, fish n chips, chicken shawarma were delicious.
Do not even think of giving the deserts a miss , phenomenal.
Small place but big on taste
Great Service by Shahbaz, will visit again. Food was excellent and I was feeling while eating that I am in UAE
Great place, loved the food and had a great vibe. Special mention of Sahabaz for great service!
Amazing food. Faizal suggested the best of the mutton Arabian cuisine. Keep it up Arbab with the splendid food and service.
One of the best restaurants for authentic Lebanese food . very humble and courteous staff. Portion size excellent. Ambience is worth every bit ..will definitely recommend my friends and family...Kudos guys.
Lovely ambience, delicious food! A new gem in Bandra! Shahbaz Malik, our steward made us feel at home!
Fantastic place! Best Mediterranean food in Mumbai! Wonderful treat! Please visit!
Amazing food and ambience
Everything that's Shabaz recommend was amazing and the service was quick and excellent 😊👌
A very lightning experience! Lavish ambience and very courteous staff. We enjoy visiting here for the feel of the place.
Drinks are refreshing and staff helps with the order really well.
Chicken shawarma was mild spicy and juicy with crunchy chicken chunks inside and a bit of cheese and mayo and sauce.
Chicken Malai tikka and Biryani was a real North Indian treat to have here.
Overall a must visit place for a dine in experience with partner or friends!
Hummus platter - 5/5
Chicken shawarma platter - 5/5
Shish tawouk - 5/5
Arayes- 3.5/5
Bakhlava - 4/5
This place has an outdoor seating and has amazing grills . All the food we tried was great , hummus is a must try . Food service was quick and served hot .
The ambiance was great. It's open til late. And the food is yummy. What more can you ask for? Had gone for a bday dinner and we loved it so much we met the head chef from Lebanon to compliment him. A couple of things that would put this place a notch/star up would be to serve flavored water and also have Turkish coffee or tea in the same way they do abroad.
Very attentive staff and great service. For avocado lovers you must try the avocado smoothie.It is so freaking delicious served with honey ! The Hummus platter is yum and so are their meat platters ! All in all a great weekend with some scrumptious food!
The Lebanese Shawarma from the menu of Arbab!! If you really want to know what's the real Taste of Chicken Shawarma, Visit @arbab.co.in
Quench your thirst with this refreshing mint lemonade.
An amazing vegetarian dish Direct by Lebanese Chef at Arbab - Bandra!!! It tastes better than Pizza!! Because this is "Manakish"
For all the people who love sweets, this Christmas try Baklava from @arbab.co.in .
It is crispy, sweet and has a distinct flavour. A must try for all!!!
This is the place where you will be able to understand the real taste!! This shawarma is being served with The amazing Lebanese Garlic Sauce, Fries and two different Salads!! This shawarma tastes amazing with the Lebanese Garlic Sauce (which is the secret recipe of @arbab.co.in ). You can have it at #arbab.
Arbab is best place to celebrate with friends and family.
People who love to try new cuisines, Arbab is an awesome place and best known for Lebanese food.
Our server for the night Saniya was very very kinda and attended us pretty well. overall experience was very good and food was delicious 😋
My long wait for authentic lebanese joint exactly satisfying the quality and taste as available in Dubai was over when i visited ARBAB.
Ambience : Super outdoor seating serving Sheesha along with lantern shaped candle holder in mosiac on table , vibrant crowd , felt exactly like sitting at outdoor area of Arooz Damascus in dubai .
Service : Sania the host was very kind in serving us .
What we ordered
Choice of Humus consisting of five different kind of Hummus ie Pesto, Chilli, Avacaod, Beiruti and beet root. with hot khaboss exactly like available in dubai 5/5
Zatar Manakish 5/5
Fattoush Salad 5/5
Falafil Platter 5/5
Potato Harara superb tasty 5/5
Garlic Paste too good 5/5 . Chilli paste 3/5 good but not as available in Dubai.
Fruit Cocktail 1/5 not good and cant come close to what available in dubai . May be quality of fruits differ .
Minus points : small place and becomes difficult especially if you are in big group.
Also no seperate place for sheesha , so for non seesha people its disturbing and inconvenient.
Overall very nice experience and surely coming back
Gave me amazing Lebanese food at 2 am. Outdoor seating. Sweet, courteous and warm staff. Great menu to choose from. Priced very reasonably. Loved the place. period.
My craving to experience an Arabic restaurant in Mumbai came somewhat to rest when I stumbled upon this eatery in Bandra. I liked the music and the ambience for a fairly small place. The place feels rather hip because of the crowd. Surprisingly it was full even on a Monday night. This place serves sheesha but I did not give it a try due to :P . Coming to the food the portions are not very large except for the rice preparations. We tried the Arbab special batata harra, hummus bil lahm, and Arabic mix grill as recommended by the waiter. Notably the hummus and the pita bread both were delish. The mixed grill is presented in a fancy way. The very first dish was served by the chef, who I recognized was not Indian. They have two Lebanese chefs. So that's how authentic it can get! A little on the expensive side but probably that's my opinion as I haven't tried out their other offerings. A place worth the try if you love Arabic food!
Ordered a Hummus Bil Lahm and pita breads from this restaurant. The dish was made with high quality ingredients and tasted very fresh. The pita was fresh and soft, the tender bits of lamb elevated the hummus to the next level. Definitely gonna try the grill platter and Mandi rice.
We had a great experience the ambient atmosphere was exceeding expectations we were served by sameer his presence was very good and the best part is that it is a super comfy seating
We recently order food for an office party... the food was delicious and our team lunch was fun
will surely want to visit and eat at the place
The staff member sameer was really helpful & nice
Sheesha is of good quality but is expensive.
The Selection of Hummus is absolutely super tasty. We also tried the falafel salad, Zattar. All of the food was of premium quality and tasted great. The place has a nice ambiance but is small and conjusted especially at night. Staff isn’t very alert.
Perfect outdoor sitting. Nice ambience. Great food. Nice take on Lebanese cuisine. Really good hammous. The grill were fantastic. Shawarma could be better too dry. Loved the sheesha (paan kiwi). For desserts we ordered baklawa icecream it was perfect!!
The food was very authentic and we'll cooked. Their hospitality is also on point. Special thanks to Shania!
Great service. Nice food. Fancied the starters more but the main course was good as well. The decor was cool and gave the typical merry vibes of a Christmas Eve night.

The best place to have Lebanese food in mumbai .. No debate
We tried lamb kabab lamb toshka and ended with Mahalabia dessert
Lamb kabab was soft succulent and juicy.
Toshka was indeed special and really heavy and took a while to finish it. The layering of the meat mince between the bread layers was just perfect
Finished off with a dessert Mahalabia .. the milk pudding was flavourful.. I found the strawberry topping to be a little overpowering which took away a slight essence from the dish but still I loved it
Overall a 10/0
I visited it on Christmas Eve so it was pretty crowded.. will definitely go back on a lazy afternoon to savour again the true flavours of Lebanese food
Arbab is such a vibe! This is the very first restaurant that got Arab food right. The service was great and the staff was really welcoming ✨
What we ordered ,
Chicken shesh tawouk
Chicken /mutton arrayes
Chicken shawarma
Mixed grill platter
Hummus pita bread
Zataar khubus
For deserts : we ordered their famous baklava. Which was a bit too sweet . Overall the good was great with good ambiance.. the shawarma and arayes are a must try . The Mandi could have been better . Visit on weekdays as it’s crowded on weekends .
Visited Arbab on a late Saturday night. A perfect date place with a cozy middle eastern vibe.
One side of the restaurant serves hookah. Food was great. Loved the pickled veggies with shawarma.
Helpful and friendly staff.
Only draw back is open sitting and no AC!
We went during summers so weren’t very comfortable. Although there are sufficient fans it gets very sticky
First the food was pretty good had Lebanese and Mediterranean food after a long time:) the over all atmosphere was good and we enjoyed
The only negative point was service, the people were good but the over service was very slow.
There were few dishes and drinks we had to repeatedly ask for and then we got it. Otherwise overall experience was nice.
Had a nice table outside, they have indoor eating but it is currently going under renovation.
This place has tasty shawarmas, a lil dark seating, and is open till 4 in the morning so you can come here for your late night cravings!!! We tried their chicken kebab (Shish Tawouk) which was very juicy, had some rice with it too (standard stuff with Turkish starters) and was good in taste!!! We even tried spicy chicken shawarma platter which was quite good!!! The prices are a bit higher here!!! Overall a good experience!! Restaurant can just make their service quicker!!!
I have eaten at many Middle Eastern places but Loved this place ! Hospitality was awesome !
Mr.IMRAN took good care of us .
Food was Delicious and fresh !
Friends of mine were trying first time any Middle Eastern food and they all loved it !
Worth of money !
Absolutely enjoyed the food here.
Mr Mathew suggested me the variety of options and I had a blast of flavours. Friendly staffs and good portion of food to keep your hunger busy. If you’re visiting please make sure what’s their specialty and take the suggestions.
I still wanted to try more Lebanese options here, hungry amd will come for more.
Thanks for serving me
For someone who has been to Gulf countries, i can say the taste here is uncanny. Delicious food, good atmosphere as well as wonderful staff and fast service. Will recommend anyone who wants to try authentic gulf/Lebanese cuisine.
Arbab is ideally located in a
very convenient ,famous shopping area, I.e. Linking Road, Bandra West.
Arbian dishes of various tastes are served here.
A must visit for Non-Veg foodies.
Good restaurant for arabic cusine. We sat in outdoor section. Food is tasty and properly served. Very good staff.
Food was decent. Nothing too special, but not bad.
It seems like more of a cafe to chill with friends than a restaurant for people looking for some good Turkish food. There's better options for authentic Turkish food. Overall decent experience.
Excellent food!!! Hummus was really really good! Creamy, perfect taste. Pita breads were perfectly made. It was so authentic. Have tried other lebanese big name restaurants but Arbab is best as far we have tasted till now. Falafel platter, chicken shwarma was super tasty n fresh! Kunafa is a must must try!
The only negative is- its in open so there were many flies. Staff is cooperative. Will definitely visit again.
Decent place for good arabic good. The entire space is non-ac which is little inconvenient. The food is really good and would highly recommend the Chicken Shawarma Platter, Hummus Beiruty, Falafel Roll, Spicy Chicken Wings. The Shish Tawouk Rice & all the mocktails can be avoided as they were extremely disappointing. The service was really good.
Would recommend it.
