Ariyadh Arabic Restaurant - مطعم الرياض العربي

Really enjoyed this! The chicken and rise dishes we had were phenomenal. The staff took the time to explain the differences in each dish and the way they are prepared to us, which was much appreciated. Portion sizes are massive and really tasty. We also had the salad with yoghurt which was really nice. The hummus with the freshly made bread was a stand out - the bread was absolutely insane, I haven’t stopped thinking about. Definitely recommend this place and will be back. Incredible value!

Absolutely amazing experience at Ariyadh Arabic Restaurant! The food was authentic and full of flavour — the mandi rice with grilled chicken and lamb was delicious. The hospitality was top-class, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. You really feel the true Arabic dining experience here. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Arabic cuisine!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with Rice Mandy was frustrating enough that I felt it needed to be shared. The rice itself was mushy, lacking any real texture, and the seasoning was almost nonexistent. For a place that’s supposed to specialize in rice dishes, I expected much better. Overall, Rice Mandy was a letdown from start to finish. I definitely won’t be ordering from here again.

I recently brought my football team of around 40 people to this restaurant, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we got in touch, the staff were incredibly nice, professional, and genuinely welcoming.

They handled such a large group effortlessly, making sure everyone felt comfortable and well looked after. The service was smooth and organised, and they were very convincing in recommending the best dishes and options for our team – which turned out to be delicious!

It’s not easy to find a place that can combine great food with such warm hospitality, especially for big groups, but they did it perfectly. Highly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere that truly understands how to treat guests. Thank you for making it a great day for all of us!

We were driving back to Birmingham from the north and decided to stop for something different. We chose this restaurant for its Saudi Arabian food, and it did not disappoint! We ordered kebda, lamb mandi, chicken mandi, and waraq inab.

The kebda was honestly the best I’ve ever had in the UK — the sauce was unique and full of flavor. The lamb mandi was delicious, with soft, tender meat and rich taste. We didn’t get a chance to try the chicken because the portions were very generous — each dish was more than enough for one person, and we were already full!

Ayoub was kind, professional, and very helpful. He even gave us two extra tiramisu boxes for my girls for free as gift  — such a lovely gesture!

The restaurant’s design also stood out — it offers full privacy so you can enjoy your food in peace. The Arabic majlis-style seating and traditional decor created a warm and relaxing atmosphere.

We will absolutely come back to this restaurant.
Total payment: £35 for everything.
