Visiting Foul w Hummus in Al Barsha for the second time was a reaffirmation of why this place has become a favorite. Though the restaurant was as congested as before - with many patrons vying for tables - it didn’t detract from the overall positive experience. In fact, the hustle and bustle seems to be part of its charm and a testament to how loved this spot is. As always, the food did not disappoint. We ordered shakshuka three times - and each time it arrived piping hot, richly flavored, with beautifully set eggs and just the right amount of spice. Alongside, two other dishes served with khubbus added satisfying variety. The bread was fresh and warm - perfect for scooping up the shakshuka and hummus. One of the highlights remains their signature hummus and foul - creamy, well-seasoned, authentic. The texture of the hummus was smooth, the foul hearty yet balanced, all of which appears consistently good at this restaurant. Service continues to be a strong suit. The staff were attentive, professional and friendly - despite how busy they were. They managed the rush with poise, making sure orders were correct, and tables somewhat cleared even though turnover was high. If I had minor critiques, it would be that during peak times the noise level rises and space feels tight; patience is required. But these are trivial in comparison to the quality and value of what you receive. Overall, Foul w Hummus remains a go‑to for authentic Middle Eastern fare in Al Barsha - warm atmosphere, great food, decent prices, and service that shows pride in what they do. Highly recommended.

Foul w Hummus is more than just a small Palestinian/Lebanese restaurant — it’s a place filled with warmth, humility, and character. The walls are lined with retro photographs of old Dubai, iconic celebrities, and respected dignitaries .. each image adding nostalgia and soul to the space. But what truly sets it apart is the powerful message at the entrance: “If you can’t buy food, it’s for FREE — This is a Gift from Allah (God).” A rare and touching gesture that reflects genuine compassion and humanity. Places like these remind you that food can nourish more than just the body.

This place is pure heaven in Dubai! The chef is an absolute gentleman he treated us to falafel and hummus on the house. Honestly, that combo alone is enough to keep you here all day. Simple, delicious, and unforgettable
