Al Wahab Vigo

Finally a Middle Eastern place worth going out of your way for!!! The service is fantastic with a warm and friendly staff, the drinks are numerous, the menu is wonderful. I had the fatti which was crunchy, sweet, savory and satisfying all in one. I finished off my meal with an aromatic tea full of spices that was wonderful. I look forward to coming back and trying more of the menu.

The food could have been more flavorful. We had the Beirut mixed platter and the kibbe was our favorite. The kofta was bland and over worked (chewy), the falafel and hummus was great, the muhammara was too but the chicken xixtawak was not so good.

Nestled in the heart of Vigo, Al Wahab offers an unforgettable culinary journey that transports you straight to the vibrant streets of Syria. From the moment you step inside, you are enveloped by the warm and inviting atmosphere, where the rich aromas of authentic Syrian cuisine greet you like an old friend. The decor is a delightful blend of traditional Syrian elements and modern touches. The walls are adorned with beautiful tapestries and artwork that tell stories of Syria’s rich cultural heritage. The service is exceptional. The staff are not just waiters but storytellers, eager to share the history and traditions behind each dish. Their genuine warmth and hospitality make you feel like a cherished guest in their home rather than a customer in a restaurant. The food is the true star of Al Wahab. Every dish is a masterpiece crafted with love and authenticity. Their variety of appetizers offer the perfect start, with hummus, baba Ghanoush, mutabbal, and fattoush that burst with fresh flavors. The kibbeh, crispy on the outside and tender inside, is a must-try. For the main course, the special lamb and beef shish melts in your mouth, seasoned to perfection with a symphony of spices. The shish tawuuk is rich and comforting, with layers of onion and tomato embracing each piece of meat. Each bite is a testament to the founder’s dedication to preserving traditional Syrian recipes. The meal is perfectly concluded with traditional desserts like bouthah and knafeh. The bouthah is fluffy and firm, with just the right amount of mastic and nuts. Al Wahab is more than just a place to eat; it is a heartfelt celebration of Syrian culture and cuisine. The combination of delicious, authentic food, warm ambiance, and exceptional service makes it a must-visit for anyone seeking a genuine taste of Syria. Each visit feels like a warm embrace from a distant homeland, leaving you with a full heart and a satisfied palate.

Excellent food, very cozy place to dine in, great service. Something different to try in Vigo

The best place to try the delicious Lebanese and Syrian food. The entries, salads, and principal plates were so delicious at reasonable prices. Calm atmosphere, professional as well as generous service.

The food was absolutely delicious. My kids are picky eaters but the colourful food grabbed their attention and they ate with their eyes and mouth. I highly recommend the Beirut platter which lets you sample all their entrees. I will definitely return.

Delicious food at unbeatable prices. The date drink I had was incredible and the Fatti salad was fresh, creamy and so flavourful. Definitely a place worth going to.

I went yesterday (Saturday) for lunch. Food was really nice, the waiter was very friendly. Highly recommended.
