Review Al-bek - Bengaluru

Thefoodiebites Yazzi

Tried this Malleshwaram branch for the first time and it was very good. I choose the self service section as wanted a quick meal. Had the grilled chicken and it was tasty. The portion size was good, pricing is very reasonable and service is quick. Atmosphere - 4/5 Speed of service - 4.5/5 Food Quality/ Presentation - 4/5 Taste - 4/5 Portion Size - 4.5/5 Value for money - 4.5/5 Overall rating - 4.25/5

Phew...tht was a long day of shopping 😮‍💨!! Need something to energize yourself? Dine in @Al-Bek Restaurant to eat a sumptuous & satisfying meal. Sit and let the hardworking staff get your energizers to your table. While you wait for your meal quench your thirst with their Lemon Juice/Soda🥤

This is located near to the Mantri Square Mall. Overly crowded place. We were in queue for 30mins to get a table for lunch on a Sunday . No ACs, only fans. Service is pretty good. Delicious food. Staffs are very good too. Will visit again for sure. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to give a try

Brijesh Poddar

Food is really good. Chicken roghan gosh , pepper chicken, tandoori chicken. Butter kulcha was equally delicious, order came very quickly, quantity was also good 1full main course is good enough for 3 people. There are not many good non veg restaurant around. Dessert is where they lack big time.

Karthik G M

Seating needs to be improved… peak time always crowded Chicken shavarma is just fantastic.. kabab also tastes great Starters are good biryani need to improve

Janavi Appa

I have ordered from here over the years. The food is always delicious and the portions very generous. The staff the courteous and extremely polite

Mudassar Nazar

Delicious Biriyani with huge chunk of chicken pieces. Similar to Ambur style biriyani. Tasty & very filling. Only put-off was that it was a reheated one not fresh which was a little bit let down on taste.

Nipun Arora

Rice was burnt and stale looks like they provided me yesterday’s leftovers... pathetic experience albek Malleshwaram

Saniya Sheikh

Amazing food. And they have the best shawarma in Bangalore. Very very reasonable pricing. Scrumptious food!

Jishnu Grandhi

I have been to this place on a Sunday and it's heavily crowded. Managed to order lemon chicken. Food is great, but no good ambience to enjoy food. Would not recommend this place during weekend peak hours.

Anitha G Anitha

Cheating people's, supply in good manner

Roshni

Out of the five dish eaten there, none of them tasted good. The paneer butter masala was the worst oil stranded on top, paneer bad taste & not fresh, rôti had to be endlessly chewed. Chicken fry was really bad in taste. Not recommended at all. One of tee worst restaurants I've been to

ARINDITA BARUAH

Visited this place once with my friends after getting to know about their amazing non vegetarian items and I must say I didn't return disappointed. We tried their Chicken Kalmi kebab, Mutton Rogan Josh and Chicken Biryani and all of them tasted amazing.

Sonali C

Chicken 65 is the authentic and famous dish here! You get best chicken 65 and chicken biryani. I have tried chicken Chilly, chicken 65,chicken biryani, kushka biryani rice. Ambience is okay..clean. Price is very reasonable,quick service. If you are visit mantri mall then it's jus 2mins walking distance from there.. Do visit this place

Shylesh Shailesh

We had ordered full chicken grill and full mushroom pepper but we received half grill and half mushroom pepper.

Syed Syed

Tandoori chicken and BBQ chicken are worst cook and we got stomach ache Pls don't order here I'm also having restaurant in Madurai

Fazil Basha S N

Nice place to hangout with friends and family. It needs some patience to wait and try food here as its extremely crowded place. Tasty food and lot of dishes to tryout.. I would recommend it to everyone...

2 Hungry Hippos

We have been here many times. This place is always crowded and hence you'll have to wait to get a table for at least 10 minutes and longer on weekends, sometimes the waiting time goes up to 30-45 minutes. This place is known for its non vegetarian food. So if you are a vegetarian this is definitely not the best option. We like the golden chicken, tawa chicken, tandoori chicken, roomali roti. The quality and quantity of the food is good enough. The service is slow and a few of their waiters are a lil rude. Take away is what we recommend. Ambience-3/5 Food-4/5 Price-4.5/5 Service-2.5/5

Jensabu

The chicken was not cooked and smelled really bad.

Munim Farooq

Received biryani cold. Rice was soggy and ultra poor quality. Terrible terrible food quality.

Yogesh Kumar

I ordered Biryani rice and ghee rice horrible i found rubber band in Biryani rice and taste wise is not that great although ghee y was ok plz be responsible

BHASKAR SAILESH

Al Bek is a so-called Arabic styled restaurant located across the city. I happen to go to the one near Malleswaram. I heard from various sources about its popularity but my experience was partially met compared to what I had heard. I had ordered simple Tandoori Chicken and Murg Malai Tikka. The Chicken was overcooked and the malai tikka was good. Later the Mutton Biryani I ordered was also decent but I expected more flavor and seasoning. When it comes to ambience, there's a lot of crowd on weekends. So yeah, better to go on weekdays. I would suggest you go out and try it for yourselves.

Pragya Bhardwaj

the food that I ordered was delivered to someone else who was also waiting for the food.. and this guy left without even asking the name !! later that girl opened the parcel to see that it wasn't her food and she gave the food to the one who gave her the right order.. Kya naatak hai yaaar !!!! Worst

Avinash A R

Lolypop served without flesh only bone Only gravy in mutton Mutton to hard They don't take back if food not good They only want money Not customer satisfaction

Manish Rock

chicken was what i ordered from this restaurant it was really tasty and i enjoyed a lot ...the prices are also affordable . The service was satisfactory ...i am looking forward to buy sholay kabab and chicken lollipop from here

Revathi

Not biriyani at all

Shamanth Reddy

If I had to describe the food at this place in one word, it would be "OIL". I have never tasted chicken that oily and overcooked before. Out of all the chicken dishes that we tried, a lot of it was either under or overcooked. Very few pieces were moist. There's so much oil in every curry, you may be able to even stare at your oily reflection in the curry (just kidding) but seriously tone down the oil. Not everyone wants to die at the age of 40 with clogged arteries. One of the many curries we ordered was - Butter Chicken. Any Indian who has ever tried North Indian cuisine knows what Butter Chicken tastes like. What we received was an absolute abomination. It was some red paste like curry that tasted of only tomatoes. Not a hint of butter or cream. Not even a single drop. Just oil, tomatoes and chicken. All of us were flabbergasted. Having said that, let me tell you what I like about this place - 1. It's super cheap. 2. The fish dishes were all really good. The fish kebabs and the fish platter were much better than what I had come to expect at that point.

Vushnu

This place absolutely sucks, no proper ambience The food tastes like a year old stale piece of shit! ! I recommend to empire instead of this at least u get quality food.

Zeeshan Azhar

Order full plate lollipop kabab. Received only 5 pieces. It's been one week raised a complain. No one to address the issue. Worst service. Taken the full amount...

Deepu Deepika

Good Delivery time and delicious was awsome.but we are looking for combo offers ..if the combo offer available then it woulb be fantastic...

Justin Forkikx

This is a place strictly for the food and non-veg focussed. The decor is purely functional. Always busy, so food moves in large quantities, rapidly. Fresh food pretty much guaranteed because of this. I always veer towards the fish kebab and grab something else I'm in the mood for on that day.

Biswajit

Going through the rating paid the visit today Found the rate very reliable and menu pocket friendly and service a good non veg menu . Wide range of non veg variety is there . Delicious too . Serve was bit slow but worth the wait as we were served with chicken Paratha and chicken swechwan noodle Scope of improvement is in. Scape and cleanliness

Akib

I wanted to get some nice Shawarma and this place was on top of my search list. I grabbed a Chicken Shawarma roll. The roll arrived and it was smaller than I thought it would be. It was very dry too and I had a pretty bad experience.

Yuvaraj Murugan

Food was undercooked and they didn't even provide container boxes for home delivery inspite of the rain. I have had many times in this branch but this was the first time ordered through Zomato in this restaurant and didn't like anything that I ordered. Definitely I ll avoid it in future.

Tommi

This place is suitable for people looking at cheap food options. The food tasted good for the price it was offered for. However, service and hygiene is a major let-down. But then, we cannot expect much for the prices that the service is being rendered. I would suggest to look for more options around the same place

Kiran Ht

OK ok

Harish T

Not sure why the rating is hovering around 4. Ordered sholay kabab, kalmi kabab, methi chicken, shawarma. Not one was up to the mark. Chicken was either too dry or rubbery or partially cooked.

Sasank Reddy

I heard good reviews about the restaurant. But when I personally visited the restaurant and ordered grill chicken from it the food we received was cold and it looked like a day before food and also the service was too bad.

Irshad Ahmed

Oh my god worst taste....the chicken which I ordered has a smell and it was a old stock iam no sure it's really from Al bek.....I got vomiting when I eat.....never ever order from this hotel again

Saravana Rajesh

A nice place to catch up.Shawarma-Was pretty good,I relished it.Ordered chicken biryani and it was good. Delivery was quick and the delivery person was friendly. Will order again.

Raghavವೇಂದ್ರ ಎಸ್ राव्

A nice place to catch up on some delicious food. We had mutton biryani, fish chilly & grape juice. The biryani tasted really good but the quantity was less. The mutton was nicely cooked. Fish chilly was quite impressive but not as spicy & tasty as expected. The grape juice is a must try here as it tastes heavenly. The ambience is fine but there is not much space here. Sometimes during peak hours you will have to wait for long times to get a table.

Sushila Rajagopal

The food was delivered absolutely cold. No response from Zomato when I complained, which is unacceptable. I don't know how they got a kabab cold!!!

Hitesh Tulsani

Al Bek One of the coolest joint for common men and youngsters at Malleshwaram this place have a better vibe then other side of city empires and other similar joints. Food: is the main USP for the whole place, tried shawarma, chilli chicken, grilled kebabs and special ghee rice with chicken curry was the cherry on the cake. Nothing much about ambiance or drink but tried their social falooda and different flavour ice creams to end of the day. Thanks for a great meal Al Bek. Looking forward for a more evenings like this.

Toy Traveller

Food is good as per the pricing however, it is good enough only for people who wanna fill hunger with limited time and move out as soon as possible, if we take more time then the caretakers make sure they abuse us to move outta restaurant, which happened to me with the pack of 12 people on May 18th 2019

Konchok Gyalson

They won't concern customer health, simply see their business, that's food may sometimes unhygienic to much oily, masala,chickens & meats are unwanted majority of bones which today i observed, I even went there for eating but it's good their, but online i didn't know why they are not concerning.

MIRAJ SK

Amazing food especially grilled chicken and mutton biryani both were awesome. every week once I will come for lunch here. Service little bit slow.

Suha Chand

Food is tasty but the Biryani is just amazing, other than that chicken Manchurian is yum as well. The place is very crowded especially during the peak hours. Staffs are polite and friendly. Best place to go with friends and family. Food 10/10 Staff 9/10 Ambience 8/10

Deep Mukherjee

Before sending food or packing didn't check the order,,,, I was ordered for chicken schezwan noodles,,, and I was got a normal noodles,,, in this egg quantity is more than chicken. Only 3 or 4 small pcs of chicken was there. And noodles taste like yak,,,, m town in the dustbin...i am upset and disappointed from Albek this time. Sending the pic as for reference.

Divya

One of my all time favourite restaurants for having non -Veg food,my favourites as Shawarma rolls & Grilled Chicken. Descent ambience with good service.

Supritha Venkatesh

We went here on a Sunday afternoon and it was jam packed,we had to wait for nearly an hour to get a seat. Since we were really annoyed and hungry by the waiting we ordered alot of food •Tandoori chicken- Was good and can serve 3 people easily •Pepper chicken- It just tasted like regular chicken gravy but didn't have a strong pepper flavor in it. •Shawarma-Was pretty good,I relished it •Chicken Biriyani- Was average nothing great •Chicken fries rice-Was really good,I liked it •Bonless chicken something we had and it was okkish We also had some rumali roti to go with the curry and a tumbler of lime juice to quench are thirst.We paid around 950rs for all of this and that's pretty good.Decent food which is pocket friendly,will definitely head here but not on a Sunday late l

Mallikarjuna Gowda

Food was good and quality and quantity also huge...worth for money Delivery was with in time..Taste also very good..But chicken pieces were sufficient...

Shamanth

Visited this place during lunch time. There were a lot of customers waiting in the cue to sit down and have a meal. The manager was prompt in getting the tables ready and ushered us in as soon as possible. Food quality was good. Really liked the roti’s offered here. The gravy was bit too oily, this is an area for improvement.

Target Rajesh

Very very bad in quality & quantity, even in small shops we are getting good quality but not here, read comments before u place the order ....

Maaz Ulla Shariff

Great Food. Great Ambience. Great Service. The food is like we are having home food and the only drawback is sometimes the food will be spicy.

Kumar

Sorry I need to say I order a tandoor kabab and other all where really too roasted and burnt I could not tell anything to the delivery person cause his duty to deliver but the food was in very very bad shape complete burnt and well as no taste earlier I have ordered from al bek never seen this worst kindly do work good cause like. These u may loose Ur reputation which was highly placed

Nidhi Thakur

When you are craving to have mouth watery delicacies and you are in malleshwaram then none other than this place is a must to go.. After that they will take care of your budget and taste.. Popular dish-Mutton biryani and Kabab

Theclumsyfoody

Great food!! A must place for chicken and egg fried rice.. The crispy chicken and chunks of eggs makes it mesmerizing!! There's a old man who owns this place and is very friendly with the customers.. Good ambience but housefull at peak hours

Muddu Rebel

Al- bek is famous for Mughlai chicken. so many many variates of food items yo can find. Veg is not that much. Serving is good here and food quality is also good with reasonable prices.

Kaushik R Jai

Usually we order from the Rajajinagar branch but this time we tried the malleshwaram branch. Ordered chicken biryani and it was good. Delivery was quick and the delivery person was friendly. Will order again.

Priya Karthika

They have the best biriyani and their chicken is absolutely to die for. Their service is really great. I wouldn’t hesitate to order from here again.

Suneela Kumar

Not so good

Biswajeethmalla

Food was good but service was not.... If want return they don't take it back. Service is slow.. And if you order veg you have to wait a lot.

Anjum

The food is quite reasonable here and the food is pretty decent, tried most of the items on the menu. Would highly recommend the mutton biryani here. Also, if you are planning to go here for lunch or dinner, plan ahead of time as the wait time for the table is long, need to wait as it is pretty crowded, especially during the weekends

Nazarethkevin

good service...

Shoib S

Worst service ...can't able to reach the ordered place this is how u r earning money Zomato Zomato is provided worst service too they can't reach to customers .....taking people money ...shame to see such service providers those who having money of customers without delivering them food...worsssssst

Shareen Kumari

This place is pathetic they do not even cook the chicken properly. I order tandoori chicken from our side chicken looks good when I started having then I realised it is not at all cooked. This is the second time happening and zomato quality to pick restaurants have also become pathetic

Foodloveisforever

Had Been to this place recently to have dinner. Well Maintained,Clean & Yummy food.But Service is really slow.Amazing place for kebabs & Biriyani. There Shawarma roll & Grill Chicken is the best..perfect place for non veg lovers.. Overall Ambiance-4/5 Service-3/5 Food -5/5 Price-4/5

Piyushff

Not saches of souce provide just 1 for each pack, no cutlery, noodles were too average.

Shivam🌟

Went there for a quick bite. The place is usually totally packed. Its the go to place for non veg. ( they have veg as well ) The service was quick. I tried the chicken biryani and it was really good. Overall a good experience. Peace ☮

Naveenkumar S H

See this egg masala !!!!! such a food never cooked by even by god. Bloody fellows if i eat this i should eat 1KG of soap powder to wash this in my body. If u have oil factory please sold it to someone please don't put in your food orders!!!!!

Dilip Anand

One of the busiest non veg restaurants in Malleswaram. Known for their grills and kababs. I loved Thier shawarma rolls. Arabian shake here is one of the best shakes I ever had. I love this place and decent ambience. Will definitely visit once again.

Priya Detha M S

This place is always a yes to Shawarma be it a paltter or roll.They have a good variety of faloodas as well. The separate counter for these two makes it easier for take aways.But its not a fine dine place as its always crowded and a lot of hustle does not let yoy enjoy the food.

Deekshitha Shastry Dept Of MCA

Had ordered grilled chicken online but it was half boiled .this happened two times when I ordered online was very disappointed with the food delivered

Veenachandran D C

we love the food

Kavya Vasudevamurthy

Starter are very tasty than biryani ‘s .recommended for chicken items than fish as not much options of seafood is available drum sticks is very tasty . Afternoon and evening time is of more rush

Pulkit

The quality and taste has changed over the years but I'd still go back. I'd prefer their Biryani over any other restaurant's but the quality is going down.

Sahana.nagaraj

Albek lovely place I had first ordered shawarma rolls it was really yummy to taste and spicy too and next we order golden chicken ? broasted chicken ? it was more good than KCF and roti was roasted with proper base and next grape juice was also dam good to taste and kollapuri chicken ? was spicy to taste and next biryani was ok ok but I will tell u the price is very cheap compared to any order places in bangalore with best taste I liked????

Naveen Mohan

I Don't Know Why Al Bek Taste And Quality Is Getting Bad... Today I Ordered Mughalai Mutton It Is Really Really Bad And Not Able Eat... And Delivery Time Is Taken More Than 25 Minutes From Malleshwaram To Kodandaramapuram Usually it Takes 5 - 10 Minutes... Zomato Guys Pls Look into it is a Waste Of Money And Food We Not Consumed...
