I came here for the Ramadan buffet and it was insane how hospitable everyone here was from the staff to the customers we didn’t stay long as we were in a rush however everyone was so kind and the food was out of this world!

The food was amazing the falafel was of the best I tried, absolutely shocked with the flavour of the zaatar and everything!! If you want fresh and rich flavours come here

I hope everyone had a good night and is having an easy Ramadan and may allah bless everyone today ❤️ thank you all for such a lovely experience/ evening

The restaurant is located on Crowley Road opposite to Tesco express. If you are driving, ample paid spaces are behind Tesco express. Not sure for Fridays and Saturdays evening. As soon as you enter, Middle Eastern music is playing and you are immediately transported to dunes of desert with aromas of good food. The kitchen is live. You can see your order coming through and going in the oven.
Kababs were fabulous. I ordered chicken tangerine, which was rich in tanginess and lots of flavour. The breads are prepared hot. That’s the best complimenting part of eating hot food. Falafel were crisp and delicious.
Definitely worth visiting and having genuine and tasty Middle Eastern delicacies.
Kudos to the team for keeping things simple and yet flavourful.

More interested in their phones than customers
If you enjoy being ignored while staff watch videos on their phones, this is the place for you.
From the moment we arrived, the staff showed zero interest in taking orders. Food arrived whenever it felt like it — all at completely different times — so eating together clearly wasn’t part of the experience.
The staff spent most of their time sitting around gossiping with each other instead of doing their jobs. No sauces, food dumped on the table, and then straight back to chatting like customers didn’t exist.
The real highlight? We asked for 4–5 small baklava desserts and were instead given 5 enormous cake-like desserts and charged £30 for them. No explanation, no warning — just a blatant money grab. Absolutely disgusting behaviour and completely dishonest.
Food was good but the service was shockingly bad. Save your money and your time — we certainly won’t be back.

Wonderful first experience here – the mint lemonade is TO DIE FOR and the baba ganoush transported me to another planet. 10/10 would definitely eat here again!

I had the best Arabic breakfast I’ve ever tasted in Oxford. The restaurant is impeccably clean and tidy, with an inviting aroma that enhances the experience. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, making the visit even more enjoyable. I highly recommend the Fool Medames it’s an excellent choice. A clean restroom is always a positive sign, and this restaurant didn’t disappoint. To top it off, the Arabic sweets were absolutely delicious. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience authentic Arabic cuisine or a delightful breakfast.

Ordered honey fig and lamb tagine. Sweet but nice. Made very quickly too.

Btw Staff dont take your order as they chat between themselves and will peave you at table for ages. So you must shout to call them or go to counter to order.
Maybe its a cultural thing?

This was the first meal my friends got me during my visit to Oxford and it was a wonderfully satisfying experience. My personal favourites are the Eggs and Sujuk and flatbread za’tar.
