A gem when you're looking for something authentic and honest amidst the same ole.
The restaurant is clean and so too is the front grilling area which you can immediately see when you enter. Its always reassuring to see a chef in his spotless chef whites too.
The staff and owners will do anything to help. There is a sense of being part of a family home kitchen. If we can do it we will attitude.
I usually have the mixed grill. The meat is fresh, tender and cooked perfectly. Im never disappointed.
I have mine with salad and I cant resist the side of tabouleh.

Arabesque is tiny but it is a little gem in my opinion. The food has been delicious every time I have been there and it is now my favourite lunch spot anytime I eat out (it is very near my work). The lady who works there most of the time is very friendly and always has a smile on her face when I go in. Lunch is always under ten pounds and I find it very good value for money.

Great food and value for money...the service is also good. Expect an average of £20 per person with wine. Definitely worth a try and don't forget to book in advance (especially on Friday and Saturday).

Great value, great food and friendly relaxed atmosphere, its 500 metres from where we live and we are now regulars!

We didn't book and we were told over the phone that it was unneccesary... that should've started alarm bells ringing but we thought that it was great that we can just turn up.
So, my friends & I went there for a meal and we were all rather disappointed. The food was cold, waiting staff were unfriendly and when we complained about the food, they were v rude. We rather hurriedly paid and walked out. In hindsight, we should have gone to some of the fab resturants nearby.
Needless to say I do not recommend this terrible little (and it is tiny) resturant to anyone.
