Well – I have to admit that despite of staying in Ras Al Khaimah for good 3 years, I was extremely late at discovering this mouth-watering and delicious FALAFEL at Falafel Abu Naeem Restaurant. I only tried it on the insistence of a good office colleague and friend (who is a big time crazy fan of Falafels)…!!! For those who do not what is falafel or have mis-conception about falafel (like me), it is a very widely popular Middle Eastern “fast food” made of a mixture of chickpeas (or fava beans), fresh herbs, and spices that are formed into a small patties or balls and deep fried. It's believed that falafel originated in Egypt, as a hearty replacement for meat during long seasons of fasting. I have never ever loved chick peas so much as in the form of Falafels. At Abu Naeem, they serve falafel with khubus, hummus and a huge platter of fresh salad (which includes lemon, onions, parsley, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, vinegar soaked carrots and cucumbers). My opinion – Abu Naeem serves the best falafels. So if you ever want to try something quick, yet filling, just go for it. A must try when you are in Ras Al Khaimah – go ahead and add it to your “to do” list or rather add it to your to “eat” list…hahahahahahahahaha… !!!

A casual Arabic restaurant that's popular for casual meals and takeaways with cars at the front constantly beeping for service. The restaurant offers good tasting food for its affordable prices, but the available food before lunch is somewhat limited compared to the already short and simple menu. Service is just ok, not particularly friendly or helpful (including not really explaining items on the menu) but they get the job done.

Very good restaurant. Open 24 hours, with some quick service. The foul medames is a must try, so is the falafel fatteh. The juices are fresh. Recommended…!
