Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Overall, I have to say, it was a pleasant experience. Food was better than average except for the beef samosa (it was very oily although the flavour was OK).
The ambience was nice. In particular the Staff taking our order and bringing the food made us feel comfortable, explained about the food and took care.

The Food at Arabian Knights, is very tastefully prepared .Enjoyed the many dishes ordered.
The service too was great.
Only thing to complain is, that the dessert menu is very limited.No choice at all.
All in all a nice place for a meal.

The food is outstanding. Me and my family enjoyed the royal sahan. The kebabs are mind blowing. The best juice I had was very berry juice. My kids enjoyed the falafel plate. We received the food on time. There was a thin guy called Mohammed Inshaf; who received order. He spoke very politely. He explained the dishes, so we had a good feast on our special occasion. Our hearts and stomachs both were filled with happiness and good food. I will definitely revisit that place with my family again. Its a good place for families.😊

Never ever. The price on the online menu is totally different. It is expensive and doesnt worth. Dnt forget to add to the menu price thr service charge and TVA. One of the waiter was so rude and not friendly at all. They say arabic authenthic but neither the staff nor the chefs are arabic. They just took the name.

I was looking for a restaurant that has vegetarian options and found this while walking down the road - how lucky we were! Loved the interior, loved the FOOD, the waiters were friendly... nothing to complain about, really!

As usual after a busy day, thought of trying Arabic food in colombo, so went to Arabic Knights to have my lunch! Restaurant was not too busy, there were around 10 - 12 guests having their meals! Thought of trying a shawarma so asked the waiter which would be the best & as per his choice, ordered an Arabic Chicken Shawarma & lime juice! Order came just within 15 minutes! The presentation of the food was good & was appetising!! Yeah , the shawarma was really good with Mustard,Garlic Aioli! The French fries was not crispy (That was bit soggy)! The Salad wasn't looked so fresh where they can improve! For the Shawarma chicken was bit over cooked (chicken was bit hard)! Lime juice was good! Overall my experience was nice though! But team Arabic Knight can work on the typical Arabic dishes! This review was only based on shawarma as I went alone I couldn't order many dishes to try! Anyhow kudos to the entire Arabic Knight team!

Wasn’t anything special. The food was subpar and took some time to be prepared. The interior to the restaurant really needs to be updated and their cleanliness is quite questionable.

The platter for two is very good and value for money. The kebab and the grill meats were delicious. The saji bread were excellent. The hummus was fresh and tasty.

The food was of high quality and taste with ample quantity. Possibly the best place to have Mediterranean food in Sri Lanka.
