Everything was amazing. The hummus, grape leaves, foul and lamb were all delicious. The hot bread was so incredibly good. Really nice family style restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. We were lucky to get a table. A lot of tables were reserved and it’s a cozy restaurant – so make a reservation if you can.

Highly recommend to go taste the middle eastern food and make a reservation before hand. Delicious and flavorful food and definitely going back. The staff was very friendly. There is a choice for everyone. Desserts are not too sweet.

Malooga was solid. Service was decent nothing super special but not bad by any means. We got the big feast platter and we each had a bit to take home at the end which was nice. All the meats were solid, not my favorite middle eastern ever but it’s a place I would definitely come back to. I really liked their lamb kebab and the vibe was good to have conversations and just spend time for a while. They also have a lot of traditional Yemen dishes and kinda of something for vegetarians too.

Easy to find paid street parking.
We were introduced to this restaurant by a social media video of a couple eating in a traditional setting by eating on the floor/pillow area. Glad we didn’t do this bc there wasn’t a small table provided, so you either eat while you’re seated, hunched over your plate that is on floor level or you are holding your plate the entire time while eating. Did not look comfy at all.
We ordered hummus shawarma, sambosa, chicken kabsah , lamb fahsah, and Yemeni latte.
Hummus and sambosas were so yummy, pita was fresh and warm.
Chicken kabsah (rice and roasted chicken) was good. Our waiter recommended for us to get the spaghetti noodles on the side and we were glad we did.
Lamb fahsah (pieces of lamb, potatoes, and okra in a sizzling pot) was an interesting choice. A yummy, salty dish. Texture was a bit tricky bc of the okra but enjoyable while it was still hot. Good with the pita.
Coffee was good!
Customer service was good!

Great food. Very good staff. Ordered the mixed grill platter & a few other things. If you are a meat eater, it’s a very good choice. Reasonable prices. BYOB as well. Make a reservation.

This dessert was delicious. The crispy Kataifi dough with the rich pistachio crumble on top and the warm creamy center soaked in their homemade syrup. I would definitely order it again.

Delicious food (authentic), value for money, great service and friendly manager/staff. We were group of 4, had the hummus, the lamb, the chai and was given a nice free dessert to try (very nice gesture from the manager, thank you!)…all were exquisite. Highly recommend.

I went to this restaurant today for my birthday with my friends and we had different orders. I ordered the Kebab sandwich, and it was really, really good! The beef mixed with lamb portion was perfect – really delicious, yummy, and juicy. The fries were great as well. I also ordered chai tea, and it was amazing! I loved it so, so much.
The service was great, and my friends ordered different dishes like Kabsa and Mandi. We also got dessert, and everything was perfect!!
By the end, the owner of the place was checking on everyone, making sure everyone was happy and satisfied with their dishes. As a person from the Middle East, I can tell you this is a very, very good restaurant and one of the best spots in Philly. I recommend everyone to go there. Nice staff, nice food, clean – everything is perfect! Thank you 🙂

This place was so good, I don’t think my google review can do it justice. We made a reservation for the floor seating and it was so nice and cozy. The atmosphere was amazing and the restaurant is pretty well maintained.
It got even better when we go complimentary chai and our server gave us recommendations on the menu. We were the only ones in the restaurant at the time since we were the first customers of the day so it felt really nice to have the floor seating and have the restaurant to ourselves!
Then came the food, wow! Starting with the chai, it was amazing. As an indian, this was just the chai I’ve been looking for at restaurants. We started with hummus shawarma and cucumber yogurt dip which was delicious. And the bread – WOW – to die for! The hummus was smooth and creamy and the chicken was so flavourful.
We got the lamb haneeth and shakshuka for the 3 of us and we LOVED it. The lamb was cooked to perfection and the shakshuka sauce was so flavourful. Again, the bread was super fresh, hot, and delicious. The portion sizes of the two dishes was just the right amount for 3 people.
We ended our meal with kunafa for dessert and that was also SO GOOD. Not too sweet, not too heavy, and again, very flavourful.
And the cherry on top was the server getting the birthday girl in our group free baklava and dubai chocolate since we mentioned we hadn’t tried that before. The whole experience was perfect!
I know this is a long review but TLDR, the food was amazing and the service was great. Highly recommended!!
