Arabya Eethuis halal Restaurant Amsterdam in Waterlandpleinbuurt

Top restaurant! Friendly staff and delicious food.

Amazing food, nice atmosphere, and great service. All with reasonable price. MA sha Allah

We didn't have a reservation, but luckily we were seated quickly. I didn't take a picture of the food, but it was delicious and the portions are generous!

Delicious food, great service, you can eat with the whole family, very family friendly

Had another great meal at Arabya! A warm, welcoming place where you can enjoy halal food with the whole family. Definitely recommended!

The owner is always friendly and cheerful, happy to help and definitely recommended

Always great to eat here very affordable and tasty. Furthermore good service and friendly owner

Super friendly and super tasty food.

Delicious food, very hospitable too

The food was delicious and the service was really friendly!

We were able to get a spot for 2 people at the last minute. All our wishes were taken into account, nothing was too crazy. Food was delicious and the atmosphere perfect! So you see that you can still remain friendly despite all the hustle and bustle. We had a meat dish and pasta. Ideal for eating with your family!

Disappointing experience at Restaurant Arabia in Amsterdam Upon entering we were immediately asked what we wanted to order — which was fine — but things quickly went wrong after that. I listed everything we wanted to eat, but after fifteen minutes the waiter came back with two completely wrong dishes. To our surprise, he didn't even know what he was bringing, and he asked me if I knew what it was. When I indicated that I had not ordered it, he asked if I could still eat it since the food had already been made. When I politely declined, he walked away visibly irritated and eventually put it down at another table. My burger came first and I ate it alone. It wasn't until 20 minutes later that my dining companion received her pasta. So we weren't able to eat together, which ruined the whole dining experience. In addition, my table companion had ordered a passion fruit mocktail that she was really looking forward to, but it suddenly turned out to be "sold out" after twenty minutes. Then I chose another drink, which was full of nasty gelatinous bits. I thought I should probably shake the drink first, but since the drink contained sparkling, this was of course not possible. So the drink was probably expired. During checkout, the employee suddenly switched to English, even though he himself did not appear to be very proficient in it, which caused confusion. All in all a very messy experience. Poor communication, unprofessional service and drinks you would rather not drink. Unfortunately not a second time for us.

Super nice people, very tasty food!!!!

I waited more than half an hour and no one even asked if I wanted something to drink. Even after addressing the employees no one came to me.

bad service the was not kind at all we were waiting more then 35 minutes only to order. Felt completely ignored

+30min wait without the waiter coming to take our order. We asked him to come take our order but apart from giving us the 6 sauces, he didn't even take our order. the restaurant is supposed to close at 11 p.m., but 10:30 p.m. still no orders taken. arrived at 10 p.m. so we left. empty stomach and very disappointed.

Really top service! Super friendly staff. Food was served quickly. Spare ribs were to die for.

Excellent service and delicious food! A very nice business with friendly employees and a very nice owner. Definitely recommended if you are in the area. I came from far away and was here for the first time, but it was a very positive experience! Toppp!

Delicious food. Definitely recommended! I'll be back soon 😊

The best halal place. People here are honest with their customers, serve very delicious food and service is outstanding.

Very clean, very good food, nothing to say

Nice concept, good and tasty food and not expensive. Very nice owner!

Quiet place with tasty food. Service was also great! If you want you can also pray there. ALL in ALL top restaurant!!!!

I had a delicious meal. The food was tasty and ready quickly, the atmosphere was very nice and cozy and the service was great. Highly recommended!

Delicious dishes, friendly staff and top service. Highly recommended, also for families. They deserve a 10 👌👌👌

Very fast service! Family atmosphere, the manager is very nice, I will definitely come back 👍🏼

We came all the way from Antwerp to this restaurant and I can say that it is definitely worth it! You can definitely eat the best pasta cream sauce here, and the sandwich was also very tasty. Besides the food, the service and atmosphere are also great! Shukran and see you next time!

If you are looking for a shrimp tagine that is so fresh that you almost think they pick the tomatoes themselves in the back of the kitchen, then you have come to the right place! The tagine was delicious, with more than enough shrimp, crispy baguette that even your Italian nonna would envy. The service? As if you are being helped by your best friends – friendly, fast and always with a smile. The place itself looks so cozy that you almost consider decorating your own living room like this. In short, I will definitely come back here... you haven't gotten rid of me yet :) To all my Muslim brothers and sisters, you can choose whatever you want with confidence – everything is 100% halal. There is plenty of choice, enough to eat something different every day all year round!

Came from Belgium and left very satisfied. The food was so delicious, service was great and the prayer room and clean toilets were the icing on the cake. Can't wait to come back inshaAllah!

Delicious food again today. A warm welcome upon arrival and the service was also great! Next time again!!

Good quality food, nice fair prices and they are fast.

I was helped well and the food was tasty, the atmosphere was nice and I had a good time 😄

Delicious food for a reasonable price! Will definitely come here more often!!

First time after seeing a TikTok video, and wow, what a delicious meal I had. You could taste the burger that it was made with care. At the table you get 6 bottles of sauce, which I consider to be a very fine stock. They have thought carefully about privacy when you come with your family. You will be helped immediately by the staff. I was surprised at the low prices. definitely come here more often.

Good food.. good price.. friendly staff.. recommended

Very good atmosphere! A perfect welcome and let's not talk about their dishes. They are excellent!! I would come back.

Today we went all the way from Friesland to Arabya for dinner with 3 friends. It was more than worth it! We were received very nicely, the atmosphere was good and I will not soon forget the deliciously tender spare ribs. You'll see us again soon!

The stars say it all. Everything was great! If you like spareribs then you MUST come here. The other food was delicious too. They even have za3za3!!

The best quality food staff is top notch

welcoming service but disappointed by the taste of the food

The food is very good and the food is prepared quickly and the treatment of the workers is very good and there is a place for prayer. May God reward you with goodness from Germany. We thank you very much.

Food was tasty and the service was good. Price was also fine. We smelled as if we had been standing in the kitchen.

Today I was unfortunately sent away because I was studying. The owner indicated that this is not allowed, because I keep the table occupied and they do not make any turnover this way. I even offered to move to a smaller table. I always order food and pay for it, so it's not like I just come to study without taking anything. I have been a regular customer for a long time and come regularly, so it saddens me that it turned out this way. The food is usually good and the service is always friendly, but there are also some things that don't always go well. For example, I have often had a spring roll that was still frozen on the inside, and a bami disk that was also frozen. I got a new one, but unfortunately it was black and burnt. I have also ordered tea without sugar before, but I still received it with sugar. Despite these mistakes, I never said anything because I thought it might be busy. However, being sent away because I wouldn't make a profit is really disappointing to me. I have eaten and studied in many restaurants and have never been turned away. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I no longer plan to come back. I hope you realize that it's not just about profit, and that you lose a regular customer with these types of promotions!

Good food. pastas are delicious

Cozy tent with very friendly staff. Delicious food, definitely recommended

During my recent visit to Arabya in Amsterdam, I was immersed in a culinary experience that I will not soon forget. From the moment we stepped in, we were welcomed by a warm and inviting atmosphere, complete with a beautifully decorated interior that reflects the rich Arabic culture. The highlight of the evening was definitely the food. The menu offers a delicious mix of traditional Arabic dishes, but the spareribs really stole the show. They were perfectly marinated and grilled to perfection, with a subtle smoky flavor that made every bite irresistible. The meat almost fell off the bone and was coated in a flavorful sauce that provided a perfect balance of sweet and spicy. Highly recommended for every meat lover! In addition to the spareribs, we also tried other dishes, and each dish was a true feast for the senses. The freshness of the ingredients was clearly noticeable and the flavors were authentic and full of character. The staff was also extremely friendly and attentive, which only made the experience better. Arabya is without a doubt a gem in Amsterdam. Whether you are a lover of Arabic cuisine or just looking for a great dining experience, this place is a must visit. I can't wait to return and enjoy those delicious ribs again and much more!

Delicious food and good service!

Gezinsvriendelijke restaurant met lekker eten, mocktails en desserts. Gebedsruimte beschikbaar en hoge banken voor echte privacy met je gezin. Personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam!!

I'm currently eating here and this was the best meat I've ever eaten. The service is really great, they do everything they can to make their customers happy. Unfortunately it will take a while before we come back since we are from Antwerp. But still it is definitely worth coming back again

Amazing food and great service!

Fantastic place to have dinner with your family. The spare ribs are delicious. Service is great. The atmosphere is good and there is a prayer room. Highly recommended

Delicious food and best experience

Beautiful place Allahoema barek delicious food for friends and family definitely recommended!!!

Delicious food and so friendly! Spare ribs were juicy and fell off the bone. Thanks for the hospitality and see you next time.

Super service, family friendly and large portions.

First of all, we received a friendly welcome and the service is top notch and the food was delicious and everything we asked for extra arrived and certainly worth repeating, may Allah soebhan wa tala REWARD you RICHLY WITH GOOD HEALTH AND SUCCESSFUL DEEDS

Allaahouma barek what a nice restaurant. Today I went there with two friends and we enjoyed it! What a great atmosphere, without music, with a prayer room and very respectful and friendly staff. The food was very tasty! It is difficult for the women to eat outside occasionally due to the mixing of men and women, but because of the high walls in the restaurant you hardly see each other. This means that you, as a woman, can also eat at your leisure. Also nice to go as a family. May Allah increase your wealth! Ameen.

Today my girlfriend and I visited Arabya in Amsterdam for the second time. We were super impressed last time and had a great experience when we stopped by for dessert, and this time we were once again super satisfied and impressed, but then with the delicious food! We had a shawarma dish and spare ribs. The spareribs were wonderfully seasoned and super tender. The same goes for the shawarma, which was nicely seasoned and the meat was nice and soft and juicy. Fries and salad also delicious. The portions were generous and large. Really a 10/10. We really enjoyed it.👌 The service is also good and attentive (despite the crowds) May Allah increase the rizq to the owners and employees, grant their company much barakah and reward and elevate them for adhering to the Islamic guidelines!

Really tasty food and super hospitable

Nice restaurant with a good atmosphere. Recommended!

Very good meal! The prince It’s good and they are very kind! 🫱🏽‍🫲🏾

Super tasty food, great atmosphere, family-friendly and hospitable!!

Top service. Was it worth coming from Zoetermeer...

My first time here, and guess what this definitely won't be the last time!! The food was Top Top Top from Tajin to spare ribs!! The snacks themselves were delicious. Moroccan tea was exactly as it should be. And about the service... You will be more than just welcomed! This hospitality is unprecedented in this country 👌🏽 Tbarkellah 3elikoum My ride from Gelderland to you was definitely worth it The atmosphere is good, nice high sofas, so you experience more privacy. And finally a tent where no music is played. This tent is certainly 100% halal 💪🏽 See you soon In sha Allah 🫡

Disappointing experience - definitely not recommended Food was really substandard. We ordered two hamburger menus, but there wasn't even sauce with the fries. The fries were limp, the hamburger dry – and that for €27! I really can't imagine that the positive reviews are genuine. The staff was friendly, but clearly inexperienced and barely spoke Dutch. The atmosphere felt more like a snack bar or eatery than a real restaurant. If you've ever eaten at a decent restaurant, you know this just isn't it. All in all, the price-quality ratio is completely wrong. You pay too much for food that is just not good. My advice: pay a little more and go somewhere else.

Good service. Tasty and quality food.

Very tasty and quickly reserved!!

Delicious food, we will definitely come back!

Super tasty restaurant if you ever visit Amsterdam. We took the pasta!

The portions were very good and tasty! In addition, a neat restaurant with good services. They were respectful employees. No loud music, no loud noises. In addition, it was nice that there was a place where people could pray.

I came across this business via TikTok, and I'm so glad I did! Extremely friendly people who really make you feel welcome. We had not made a reservation but were still able to sit despite it being very busy. The food was delicious, prepared with so much taste and care. I will definitely come back here!

Prayer room, no music, quiet eating, shielded from others. Nice staff. It was busy, but they made a spot for us. May Allah subhan'wa'taala continue to bless it!

Fantastic experience! What a wonderful dining experience! From the moment we entered, we were immediately warmly welcomed by the friendly staff. The atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and inviting, with cozy decor perfectly complementing the ambiance of the food. The menu was varied and the dishes were not only beautifully presented, but also of excellent taste. We felt really welcome and in good hands. In short, a top experience from start to finish. I can recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for good food, great service and a cozy atmosphere. Definitely a place I will return to soon!

Top restaurant! Quality is top notch

lovely restaurant, despite the crowds we still arranged a table for us and the food was delicious as well as the service, definitely recommended

We really enjoyed our visit! The spareribs were perfect: wonderfully tender and full of flavor. The burger was great too, with a soft bun and just the right balance of ingredients. The pasta with shrimp in creamy sauce was an absolute must, with a rich and flavorful sauce that paired perfectly with the shrimp. What really struck us was how child-friendly the restaurant is. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere in the restaurant made it perfect. We will definitely come back here!

Owner was super friendly, took us to our table with a warm welcome, extensive menu, great quality food for what you paid, it arrived fairly quickly, with high benches so it feels very private, there is even a prayer room, not to mention the blue zone in front of the door, it was a great experience, definitely recommended for families or a nice date

The food was great. Full of flavour. Service was good, definitely recommended.

Super nice people Good service, if you contact them they will solve it immediately The salt jar fell over my food and I immediately got a new plate of food Running for that creamy chicken pasta too heeeeerlijkkkkk we'll be back for that!!!

Very nice layout in the restaurant. The high benches provide a lot of privacy while eating. The food is delicious and lots of choice! Everything is of quality.

Great food never had anything bad I love the atmosphere and always so sweet. I go as often as I can thank you for the Great times and reorganization I will have

The food was delicious. Cozy atmosphere to go with family and friends. The people who work there are always super cheerful and nice. Moreover, I think it is very important that a restaurant is clean and I see that clearly reflected in Arabya restaurant. Highly recommended!

A culinary journey through Moroccan flavors Yesterday I went with my family - my Moroccan wife, two daughters and a son - to Arabya, a Moroccan restaurant that enchanted us from the first moment with its warm atmosphere and hospitable ambiance. The rich aromas of authentic Moroccan dishes immediately welcomed us, and the décor, a perfect blend of traditional and modern, enhanced the feeling of a culinary journey through Morocco. Our children enjoyed spring rolls and chicken nuggets, dishes that left them with a smile. I opted for the spare ribs, a masterpiece of tenderness and flavor, while my wife feasted on a minced chicken dish, subtly spiced and full of aromas that transported us to faraway places. The owner, the only one in charge, made our experience complete. His kindness and love for his work shone through in every interaction. He really made us feel welcome, as if we were guests in his own home. As a non-Moroccan, but married to a Moroccan woman, I find it enriching to get to know restaurants and their owners like this one. Arabya offered us not just a meal, but an unforgettable experience. The combination of culinary perfection, warm hospitality and an atmospheric environment made our visit extraordinary. What a great restaurant, what a wonderful restaurant!

I often come here to eat something or have a cup of tea with friends. Alhamdoulilah always had a good experience with Arabya top service Allahuma barik and always hospitable. May Allah swt bless the matter!

A3mo is very lovely and kind Allahuma barik. May Allah put barakah in his endeavors 😊

Very nice people, very hospitable, The food is super tasty and there are different choices and everything is tasty and filling. Price quality is perfect. Atmosphere is fantastic. Definitely recommended!!

Friendly owner, tasty food, generous portions and their mocktails.. delicious! My daughters not only found them tasty, but also beautiful! The spare ribs were tender and seasoned, the chicken pasta, creamy and tasty and my hot chicken sandwich, generously filled and deliciously spicy.

My son and I had the spare ribs. He really liked them and I thought they were okay. His mother had the chops and they were disappointing: dry and very much that sheep smell. Our other two children were also very pleased with their hair salon and hot chicken dish. I also had a bissara and it had a good taste and was nice and hot. The interior is a bit small but cozy. Great place to get something every now and then or to eat something on the spot

Great food at very reasonable prices. Spare ribs were great.

It was delicious and a very nice atmosphere!

Very nice man wants to help you with the best food, top quality, I will definitely come back

super tasty food, friendly staff and good and fast service! May Allah bless your business

Delicious food, good atmosphere and friendly staff. Prayer room available and only run anaseed. Definitely recommended.

Spare ribs and tagine were really great!

Food was so delicious, Service top, the Staff was so friendly. Very nice Spots ❤️❤️

Food was delicious. Unfortunately they had no cocktails and no desserts. After an hour and a half we were asked if we wanted to finish. Apparently you are only allowed to occupy a table for 2 hours. We had a night out with the ladies so this was very disappointing.

Super good, very welcoming, reasonable price, large portion for those who are hungry, also a prayer room

Delicious halal food! Good service and friendly people. And free parking. Recommended!

Very good and friendly service. Food was tasty (arabiya dish + fries, beef burger). Definitely recommended!

Good food, neat and cozy. Be sure to reserve a spot in advance to be sure.
