What to Eat at Bbq Kabab Aswaaq al mizhar مطعم باربيكيو كباب أسواق المزهر How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Bbq Kabab Aswaaq al mizhar مطعم باربيكيو كباب أسواق المزهر, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Share Mix Grill. Consider the mix grill for sharing: one review ordered it for two and found it enough for three.
Try Tikke Masti. Add tikke masti to your order if you want a named recommendation beyond the usual kebabs.
Check Takeaway. Inspect takeaway packaging and contents when collecting or receiving an order, as one review flagged packaging quality.
Confirm Large Orders. For a large mixed-grill order, confirm the weight and included accompaniments before guests arrive.
Ask About Deals. Ask whether a current dine-in offer applies before paying; an older review mentioned a 30% dine-in discount.
Try Arayes. Arayes are worth considering if you want something beyond a standard grill plate; one review found them filling.

The Bottom Line
BBQ Kabab Aswaaq Al Mizhar is a Persian restaurant in Al Warqa centred on Iranian grills and kebabs. The mix grill is the clearest crowd-pleaser: one order for two was said to be enough for three. Arayes, bbq chicken and tikke masti also appear in the reviews, giving first-timers a few concrete places to start.
Portions are often described as generous, and a mix-grill order was reported to include complimentary soup, salad, hummus with bread and yoghurt. Other reviews mention welcome drinks, fruit and gahwa at the end. That combination makes it a practical choice for a relaxed family dinner or a shared meal rather than a quick single-item stop.
The restaurant is in the ground-floor Aswaaq Mall, and customers have described the atmosphere as cosy and family friendly. A review also mentions cabins for family privacy. Prices are generally considered reasonable, with one dated review listing mix grills from 75aed for two, although another customer felt some dishes were expensive for their size.
Takeaway needs more attention than the dine-in experience. Older reviews report incorrect drinks, missed items, a short large order and packaging that should be improved, so check the contents and confirm quantities before relying on a delivery for guests.
