What to Eat at Meat Moot Last Exit Al Khawaneej 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 Meat Moot Last Exit Al Khawaneej, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. We still have more reviews to analyze, so the scores may change. 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.

Review excerpts
“The meat is really good. We ordered lamb shanks and they were delicious.”January 2026
“The lamb shank arrived beautifully presented, with the meat glistening and tender, falling off the bone effortlessly. The smoky aroma hinted at the hours of slow cooking, and it was packed with deep, savory flavors. The texture was perfect – juicy, succulent, and well-seasoned without overpowering the natural flavor of the lamb.”September 2024

Smoked short ribs Net +2
“We ordered the smoked short ribs (1 kg), which was more than enough for four people. The meat was incredibly tender and full of flavor, slow-cooked for 12 hours over wood, and you could really taste the smokiness.”

The Bottom Line
Meat Moot at Last Exit Al Khawaneej is built around smoked and slow-cooked meat, with brisket, lamb neck, lamb shank and smoked short ribs among the dishes customers mention most. The attraction is not only the food: several diners enjoyed watching the chef prepare the meat, tasting it beforehand and getting guidance on cuts or sauces. Portions tend to suit sharing.
A review found 500g of beef brisket enough for two, while a 1kg smoked short-rib platter was more than enough for four. Platters can come with rice, fries, salads, yogurt and multiple sauces; some diners also reported included drinks and refills. The lamb neck was praised for being especially tender, while the lamb shank was described as moist and falling from the bone.
The setting works for family meals and groups, with both indoor and outdoor seating mentioned. Service is often described as quick, friendly and attentive, though one customer reported being pushed to order, receiving the payment machine before the bill, bland sauces and dry meat. That suggests checking your order and sauces on the day.
If you like Turkish-style barbecue and generous shared meals, the chef-led format gives the visit more to it than a standard meat counter.
