Very basic. Although staff were friendly and helpful, the menu and service were very minimalistic - no extras. Not even a sliver of lettuce or tomato on your plate. Fully understand that all businesses are recovering from lockdown but check if customers want the option and would be willing to pay extra. They are there to support u!

Not enjoyably at all, needs new decor & the hookah was a joke, very basic I was expecting more since they post so much on Instagram

Their layers milkshake never disappoints! Do try. Their food is always satisfactory and tasty. The bubble waffle (not sure on the correct name) was a show stopper and really delicious. Also their sheesha was perfect and much better than Ala Turkish (rated by my peers as we left to Arabian nights straight after having supper at Ala Turkish)

Place was nice and cosy. The place does need some TLC renovations though but was a lovely experience. Food was Devine and hooka pipes was not bad, had a broad range of flavours I never even knew existed.

Good food and service was okay but beware because they charge a service fee of 10% for a group of more than 6 and then say this is not part of the tip and actually we paid 10% tip which is then 20% for less than average service. Based on this single fact I wont recommend this place at all.

One of my favourite hangout spots. Feels dodgy outside but the food and atmosphere is always good. My favourite right now? The butter chicken. Dont know of any establishment that does better.

There is a huge variety of food which makes it difficult to choose. The foods prices are reasonable and will be worth it for your money. You can go with a group or two.

Okayish food. I had a Belgian waffle which wouldnt recommend actually. Otherwise you can find pretty decent Cape town food with a mix of middle eastern, Indian type food. Pretty middle of the range though

The food was lovely. Atmosphere was warm and friendly. Just triple check the quote received and ensure that you ask all the relevant questions so you dont get a shock when you receive the bill. My bill was more than the quote received which came as a huge surprise.

Review №25

Surprisingly nice... Cool and totally laid-back vibe. Smoking friendly environment... Perfect for those quick one on one meetings. Or just the standard precursor/meeting point before boys night or whatever... Coffee and dessert and then hit the road!! Check em out!

I was really impressed with the range of their menu. The butter chicken (which they advertise as the house speciality) was divine. Also a cool, different atmosphere. Would definitely go back.

Food was good and affordable, although their policy is to not stay for over 2 hours, we stayed over 4 hours and never felt rushed at all. Literally a place to chill at. A plus slow if you enjoy smoking.

Great food that is always delicious and never dissapoints. Lots to.choose from.Went there with my girlfriends and then with my husband. Still keep going back again and again.

Review №35

Average/basic pipes. Too crowded or mainstream for me. Will usually go with my friend during the week or early on a weekend, before it gets full, just because its convenient (location wise). Food is usually good/ohk especially for price. Seating setup is nice though, but you might find it hard to find a vacant booth during peak times/days.

Really unhappy about this place. Food isnt nice, they tell you steak pizza then its small mince pieces. No music, had to ask and which they couldnt provide properly, normally two coals were given now you have to pay extra. That was deffs not worth R700 spent😥

Apparently theres a button in each booth to call the waiters which would have been useful since we arrived around 11pm and by the time our waiter came to us the kitchen had closed. Thats okay though. I got the masala beef roti which was nice but I got an upset tummy the next day (and Im an avid consumer of spicey food). The saffron falooda was great but couldnt taste the saffron. We were also rushed to finish our food and leave which is ok I know people want to go home.

Review №57

I have been there afew times and had okay experiences overall, but i went there earlier this evening and was really disappointed by the service as the waiter hardly understood what I asked him and due to that I ended up ordering something I didnt actually want.. to add to it, my friend specifically ordered a waffle without banana, but ended up getting banana in her plate. Id say they should get locals to waiter for them as the language barrier is a huge issue.

Review №58

We wait for 10 mins,to be recognised,we then take a seat and wait,the waiter walks past us many times,and says he will be with us shortly. He eventually comes to our table and tells us we need to move next door,as this table is reserved. Pathetic service, wil never go there again. To the owner your staff,messing up your business.

Arabian nights is always a good place to visit for a chilled night out. The service at rosini is horrible. The food has dropped in standard, but the milkshakes and pipes are brilliant.

Review №95

The go to place if you want to chill with friends and have something to eat. Its selling point is that its a smokers lounge. Have an hokka pipe, a cigarette, vape, and the best thing - its fully Halaal. Decor reminds one of Turkey/Morocco/Arab tastes but the focus is more on being social and meeting up to chat and get up to date with the local gossip.
