About Old Damascus Mediterranean Restaurant

Old Damascus Mediterranean Restaurant is a hidden gem with incredibly fresh and authentic food, especially the shawarma and hummus. Quality ingredients and traditional recipes are used, with generous portions that come out perfectly cooked. The staff is welcoming and ensures comfort throughout the visit. One reviewer hosted a baby shower there, praising the delicious food, timely service, and a pleasure to work with owner. The restaurant has an interesting ambience—spacious, unique, with a lot of character. For food, the kofta with rice and hummus is very flavorful, with rice having a pleasant smoky flavor. The kibbeh tastes good but seemed slightly undercooked. The lamb mandi was disappointing, with very little to no seasoning, tasting boiled and lacking tenderness. The Caesar salad is very delicious, reminiscent of a top tier restaurant’s salad. Overall, the experience is decent; the food has a rich, deep flavor profile with balanced spices and fresh ingredients. Some items are enjoyable, especially the kofta, but the food as a whole does not stand out as much as hoped—good, but not great. The attention to detail in both food and service stands out, making it a solid choice for something authentic and satisfying.

I saw the restaurant advertised on Dallas Halal Buzz. We wanted to try a different cuisine. The restaurant did not disappoint!

Great ambience, good food. family owned and good service

Visited a delightful Syrian family-owned restaurant and was thoroughly enjoyed! Their Kabsa and Mandi were aromatic and flavorful, while the Shawarma and Falafel were perfectly seasoned. The highlight, however, was the rich, spicy Syrian Muhammara – an absolute taste sensation. A must-visit for authentic Syrian cuisine lovers!
