I had an incredible dining experience at Malooga! The Chicken Mandi was flavorful and the hummus was top-notch. The ambiance is cozy, making it perfect for a casual lunch. Service was friendly and quick, can't wait to return for more delicious Middle Eastern dishes!

Malooga offers a delightful taste of Middle Eastern cuisine in a cozy, casual setting. The lamb haneeth I ordered was exceptionally tender, served on a bed of aromatic saffron rice that paired beautifully.

We also tried the stuffed grape leaves, which were flavorful, though a bit cooler than expected. The ambience was lively, and the staff were genuinely friendly, enhancing our experience. Plus, the halal options here make it great for everyone! Highly recommend! 🌙

Malooga is a delightful gem for anyone craving authentic Middle Eastern cuisine! 🌟 On my recent visit, I tried the Chicken Mandi and was blown away by the freshness and flavor. The complimentary rice dish from Chef Mohammad was such a nice touch!

Henry, my attentive waiter, ensured that every detail of my experience was perfect. The cozy atmosphere and friendly service made it a great spot for lunch or dinner. Don't miss the amazing hummus and flatbread, and definitely consider reservations - this place fills up quickly! I can't wait to return for their lamb Haneeth! 🥙
