Check Contents. If ordering mixed grill delivery, confirm exactly what is included; one 1KG order was missing chicken kebab, hummus, moutabal and vegetables.

Ask Portions. Before paying for a combo or grill, ask about the serving size: reviews range from generous portions to four small chicken pieces for AED 51.

The Bottom Line

Asli Beirut is a Lebanese counter in the Silicon Central Mall food court, useful when you want shawarma, kebabs, hummus or mezze without committing to a formal restaurant. Beef shawarma is the strongest recurring recommendation: one customer called it one of the best sandwiches they had tried. Kebabs also receive specific praise, including a tender kebabs platter and soft, juicy lamb kebab.

The setting is casual and reviewers often describe the service as fast and friendly. Takeaway packaging and hot delivery have worked well for some customers, while the food-court location comes with free mall parking. The team has also been praised for finding alternatives for gluten and dairy allergies, so mention dietary needs when ordering.

There is a real value and consistency caveat. Several diners found portions too small for the price, including four small chicken pieces for AED 51, while others reported generous portions. Delivery feedback is especially uneven: mixed-grill orders have arrived with missing items, and separate reviews mention cold soup, stale fries, an under-filled shawarma and even raw chicken.

If ordering a combo or mixed grill, confirm the contents and portion first. For a first visit, shawarma or kebabs look like the safer starting points than experimenting with a large delivery order.
