Al-amir in Genève

Good food and reasonably priced!

This is my favourite place to go for a kebab! I always have the Falafel sandwish and it is delicious, with lots of options to put inside it. The customer service is outstanding, unlike other places in the area that don't even give a smile when serving you. The guys are friendly and remember me each time I visit, the reason I always return there. Thank you to all the staff there for their hard work throughout the night. Keep up the AWESOME work and see you soon!

I ordered Chicken Kabsa when I arrived there on a weekday, and it was already busy. I didn’t mind waiting but it took a bit while for them to complete my order. Its price was pretty good for a huge portion. I mean seriously huge. It was enough for two people. I couldn’t say the flavour was superb. It was a bit too oily for my liking, but the chicken was soft and tender, not too dry! The only two things that kinda rubbed me the wrong way: 1) It wasn’t quite hygienic. They didn’t wear gloves while preparing food. I saw one of them picked up something from a plate and threw it out (I don’t know what it was) and he wasn’t wearing gloves. 2) I watched him taking my food from the kitchen on the other side and placing it in a microwave - it wasn’t exactly freshly prepared but at least it was served hot.

Great place for food! Must visit if in Geneva. We visited twice in two days ! Thanks for the dinner!

Excellent, open at 1am... great restaurant

Very bad food, terrible service, they don't even have spoons to give, they can't serve 3 tables. The food is extremely tasteless. They write extra prices as they wish. Don't go.

Love it was tasty halal food I be back again 😋

They were not good and did not behave well. Not allowing us to enter with a dog. They are lying

Warm welcome with a falafel. I really advise you to go there, the staff are lovely, the food is perfect. I appreciate it enormously. I was there at 11:30 p.m. open. Perfect.

Still the best Shawarma in Geneva with its incredible sauce.

The food is exceeding my expectations. The dishes are great and the staffs are friedly. There are options for vegan too.

I used to go there often before, but today I'm really disappointed and will never go there again, the first person who welcomed me was friendlier, but the person who prepared the sandwich for me was really unpleasant at most to the point, I asked for extra fries and he put them inside the sandwich... I didn't complain but once I got home the sandwich was made in a hurry, not even tight and everything was spilling, Worse still, the fries were barely cooked, still hard and frozen... add to that the contempt of the customer and the bad mood, it's too much for me

We went to Geneva. As a tourist. Wasn't sure about good halal restaurants. We went to Al Amir and stick with same tor next day dinner as well as find was delicious and very good portion. Special thanks to Br Fida who served us the food. He speaks English which made it really easy to communicate and served us well.

Very good food and convenient. Pls keep up your good service on uber eats!

Delicious, very very good lamb shawarma and the fries are a delight. Friendly staff

Fantastic casual Lebanese diner! Prompt service, everything was very tasty. Best baba ganoush! Falafel, Hummus and chwarma also delicious.

A great way to start 2024! Accompanied by my partner, we chose to visit Geneva and opted for the Al Amir restaurant. On January 1, the establishment welcomed us in an impeccable room, equipped with very comfortable chairs and armchairs. The staff, especially our server, was extremely helpful. He not only graciously offered me water but also responded positively to my request for additional sauce, which pleasantly enriched our experience. The toilets were immaculately clean, contributing to the overall satisfaction of our visit. The dish served was very tasty and fully met our expectations. However, a small inconvenience was the door which remained open throughout the service, requiring me to keep my jacket on. Despite this slight inconvenience, I would like to give this experience 5 stars, thus positively marking the start of our year.

This was an awesome experience with the cold rain outside and the tasty food inside. We had the Lamb Kofte Sandwich, Chiche Taouk (grilled chicken platter), Kabsa (Biryani), and Kunafe. Everything was super delicious and made to order. Staff (waiter) spoke English, very courteous, and explained the dishes b4 order. Not so expensive for 3 persons hearty meal.

not recommended mistreatment also at zero hygiene level. bad experience

Their food was so delicious also fresh and the staff's behaviour was really good.

My go-to spot for a kebab or shish tawouk sandwich. The meat is juicy and tasty, and in my opinion the best kebabs in town (I'm middle eastern- so I tested the options ;). Fair prices, friendly staff, and open everytime I've had a craving.

The coffee is very delicious, al amir, the cakes sounded very delicious, A la Amir, the fries sounded very delicious, A la amir, the decoration is very pretty, Au al Amir, it's me, Adrián Puente, Willy, back with my mother, here, been here today, Christmas Monday.

Super tasty food, perfect service and nice restaurant to it in. Nice overall experience, i recommend ! Ps: they have very nice mint tea

No kebab sandwich... only pancakes...... Strange. With the pancakes I always stay hungry....

Delicious & not too pricey. 😋 Halal too.

Certainly THE or one of the very best kebabs in Geneva.

Best chicken shawarma at falafel

Delicious food both for vegetarians and meat lovers!

treatment towards the person horrible both for the customer and for the workers, the boss is horrible I ordered a couscous and didn't like it so I tried it with a spoon a bit on a plate. Plus and I didn't like it I tell him to change the plate, everything is fine, but when I go to pay, he charges me for the plate of couscous that I didn't eat and he talks to me badly and treats me badly and refuses to reimburse me horrible, I will never go back there in my life and I do not recommend it

My second home. Minimum once a day. Best shawarma in the world and above all incredible staff.

Excellent Lebanese food. Very quick service. Limited seating but they are fast.

Unfortunately, it was one of the worst sandwiches I have ever eaten. It tasted very strange and made me nauseous.

Decent Arabic food at good prices.

Unfortunately, it was a failed experience in every sense of the word. I am a fan of Creme Tom and Shawarma. Unfortunately, the reviews I saw below did not apply at all to the restaurant. The food tastes bad, it is all spices, and all of the spices are all seven spices that do not taste good except the spices. The salad was never good. You say they put pickles on it and soy sauce. The taste is indescribable. As for the cream toum, it was starch and water stirred together. As for the potatoes, they were fine, the first minute they were hot, then they were no longer. It was eaten and had no taste. As for the mutabal, it was good, but unfortunately the eggplant peels remained chewy even though it was not very clean. As for Al-Maamli, he was a good man, but he did not understand my request. He had a chopped shawarma sandwich with salad and mutabal, and he kept saying there was no last but not the last. They used to say disrespectful things to me. On the cup and the children are sitting. The cleanliness is 5 out of 10. I do not recommend it. On the other hand, there is another store next to it. Honestly, I did not try it, but there was a lot of world in it. I wish you had not visited a restaurant. Even the prices are expensive, not as you have shown. The world is in pictures.

Excellent dishes well served by friendly and competent staff

Lebanese cuisine. Hearty and good. Very good value for money. A stone's throw from Geneva Cornavin Station. I recommend +++

My travel request is food for Ziza, I advise you on it

I’m Lebanese and this is the closest thing to eating shawarma in the streets of Beirut!

The food, the sitting, and the service are all amazing

A small restaurant with five-star food and a good soul for the Egyptian young man. The kabsa is a million percent

Best place in Geneva for take away falafel wrap

I chose this oriental restaurant by chance and also because there was little or no waiting at the time I passed through Geneva this Tuesday, August 22, in the early evening. My shawarma, chosen without tomato, was correct, especially since the service was very efficient and above all very understanding because of my timing...I suggest it!

Most annoying thing is the customer service really bad and food is awful nothing to do with Lebanese food

I came to eat with my husband and my 2 children this evening and I can assure you that the restaurant is great: The welcome was warm, the food was excellent! If you are looking for taste in your plates, this is the right place! Excellent value

Staff that spoke English were very friendly and welcoming. The food was nice

Better food across the street at Sultan's

A delicious falafel but this time it was reheated. Too much even! Black, hard and almost impossible to eat. Straight into the trash.

Delicious chicken shawarma Shish tawook chicken, sweet Indian flavour French fries 👌🏻 Abu Sami did not fall short ✨🙏🏻

It was delicious. Lebanese food is delicious.

too good and the waiter who looks like salah gave me 3 falafel

Was greeted at the door by a staff member was friendly, he helped with the menu too. Food was nice it actually had flavour i only had the shawarma but they have big boy munch too and im sure thats just as nice as it looks so good.

Friendly service from the manager and great food, what more do you want.

The service is fast and their atmosphere is nice. The shop is very ordinary. The taste is mop wow, but it is considered good

Amazingly delicious shawarma! We came in by accident and didn’t even look at the reviews, but were pleasantly surprised! Very tender meat and delicious sauce in shawarma 😍

Good middle eastern dishes and friendly service. Tasty snacks and salads

A beautiful restaurant with excellent service and a variety of options for Arabic food close to Gulf cuisine. We thank the manager, Mr. Omar, and also the young man, Abdo Al-Mughrabi, for the cleanliness they provide for the food.

I loved it. The food has a lot of flavor. It is in a very well located neighborhood and the waiters treat you great. I will definitely return

Restaurant, despite the small area, the food is delicious and the service is fast, with a smile and helpfulness once in a while, and the prices are also excellent. It is worth visiting again.

One of the best Arabic restaurants I visited in Geneva They have the best chicken shawarma And bless you for the beautiful service 🌹🌹

A very wonderful restaurant, very wonderful and excellent. The food is delicious and the staff are very courteous. Frankly speaking, it is the best restaurant I have tried in Geneva, Switzerland in general. All the dishes are delicious, each one better than the last and very clean And the place is excellent A thousand thanks to them

It is a bad restaurant and the food is not good. I do not recommend it at all

One of the best shawarma in Geneva. Fresh and quality products. I recommend the mixed schwarma with a kebbe and a spinach fatayer...

must try their desserts, highly recommended

Very delicious shawarma restaurant, clean and excellent staff treatment 🫶🏻❤️

Amazing host to greet you as you enter, very helpful staff when deciding what you want to order. Food is out of this world epic, very authentic at the right price. This street has great food, Al Amir is top.

Always a top shawarma, safe value for money.

I was humiliated by two restaurant staff for the second time. He was very rude to me, because I asked for cold fries to be served in the morning at dinner at 10:30 p.m. And they told me Geneva is full of restaurants. On Monday I will report this to the PCTN service.

Good place, fresh products and well served.

Excellent food, would absolutely come again

Pleasant. Didn’t eat food but the service is friendly.

Food that is good, served on a takeaway plate. The waiter offered me a falafel to taste! Concerning the welcome, I see that I am not the only one who expected more of a warm welcome, and with a smile. PS: no cutlery and service with the plate were given to me

Honestly, I've tried them all. Sometimes I try my luck in other restaurants of the same type. And every time I tell myself the same thing. Nothing beats a Good Al Amir! Thank you to the team for their kindness and for delighting us with each visit.

Very nice doner we loved it with reasonable price 😀

Microwaved meals. Can't even microwave properly. Came in ice cold twice, and no, the food is supposed to be served hot as we had two of the same meal.

Very welcoming staff and the food is very good. The welcome and the food are even better than the scent of Beirut. Moreover, the take-out packaging allows you to keep the flavors well. The place deserves a little refreshment. On the other hand, the prices of Lebanese restaurants have increased significantly in recent years.

Good....Nice Arabic atmosphere and good food

One of the best meat Shawarma’s in Geneva Switzerland… never disappointed. A must visit.

For a while, we ate well there. It's over !

After eating the shawarma plate, I felt heartburn and felt nauseous. I spent the whole day in the toilet the next day... I'm not even angry but sorry for them, it's truly the worst shawarma plate I've eaten in my life.

Good Lebanese food, simple but good.

inexpensive but very good quality food, I recommend

The grilled food al amir (next to the normal al amir) is simply great food that lasts you for two day. The service provided by Murad is fantastic, recommend it based on only his services 5* services mate.

It was a wonderful experience, Excellent Arabic gastronomy. I loved. Highly recommended!

Very sweet guys, warm, generous, funny. Had a vegan Falafel Sandwich - amazing, ask him to add some taboulé, delicious 😁

Excellent kafta, the best in Geneva!

Several visits to them already under my belt and always a pleasure, the chicken shawarma is a sure bet 🫠😋

Food not good, not recommended.

I only ordered falafel because I have no confidence or reassurance in the sweetness of meat The price of a falafel roll is 10 Swiss francs, and the conversion of every 1 franc equals 2.5 euros. It was exploitation in the full sense of the word. Of course, the workers there are Syrians and Turks.

Excellenteeee! Nothing to ask for. Excellent real shawarma

The food is not bad… But the hygiene of the restaurant really leaves something to be desired…

A waiter who didn't speak French, I asked for a glass of white wine 3 times, I never saw him. Couscous, steamed meat without any taste, very long service and hygiene oh my god the decorative doors on the ceiling and full of spider webs everything was dirty. Fortunately I didn't see the kitchens oulala. Well, for my part, I do the Moroccan couscous list better than them.

Located close to the station and hotels, the Moroccan restaurant makes us feel like we are in Morocco. The portions are well served, the food is very tasty and the staff are very helpful and friendly. Good cost-benefit.

the food was amazing with amazing and friendly staff highly recommended 😌😌😌

Dirty premises, horrible welcome Dry meat and especially everything served cold.... Avoid!!!

- Im not a shawarma person but this one really had me to the last bite. -you can add whatever you like to your sandwich - very friendly staff and gave us complimentary falafel when we walked in - the location is a bit struggle and unwanted seens around “ red zones “ - not much of clean place they touch the money and everything and go back making your sandwich. - no gloves - dusty counters

The food is very delicious. We ordered a mixed grill, which comes with four choices. We took tabbouleh, hummus, potatoes, and a green salad. They are all delicious. The reception is excellent, the service is excellent, and the prices are like the market

Very unfriendly service. And above all €38 for 2 sandwiches is clearly a steal, take a good look at your receipt before leaving the establishment to avoid unpleasant surprises.

Very friendly welcome and staff. Good quality meat and spicy sauce to match.

The locals may not be very welcoming, but it's the best kebab in town! I went there because I saw that the kebab ball was made of pieces of meat and not a solid mush. Delicious kebab, natural flavors, crispy.

Great chicken sandwich! One of my favorite places to eat in Geneva.
