7 Awesome Places To Try When Dining On A Budget In Sharjah

Restaurants can be a pricey indulgence and yes, we agree that the best way to save money on food is making it at home. But some of us enjoy the experience of going out to eat, whether it’s for date night, hanging out with friends, or enjoying a good meal just by yourself.

If you like the restaurant experience, but you want to get the most for your buck, you can try restaurant critic Todd Kliman’s “high-low” method. With an eye on your wallets, we have got you covered with seven low budget restaurants in Sharjah to enjoy a meal at:

Aroos Damascus

Affordable, delicious Syrian platters served with a riot of flavours, Aroos Damascus has been in the UAE since the 1980s. This beloved Arabic restaurant serves one of the best arayees – a pita pocket stuffed with spice-laced ground lamb and grilled to crunchy perfection. 

It’s always busy until the wee hours.

Al Afadil

Known for its finger-licking Lucknowi kababs, thick creamy lassi and hot parathas, this small gem of a restaurant is not the ideal place for a date, but one definitely for a wholesome delicious meal. 

Located in a narrow dirt lane, this kitsch outlet will have you dreaming of the food. Take out might be recommended though, due to the limited number of tables in the resto. 

Orient Grill

They serve with love and a full plate at that. The Indian and Chinese cuisine is of generous portion, and value for the price. The staff too is accommodative and keep very busy during the weekends. 

Taj Bangalore

If you’ve got food on your mind, Taj Bangalore is your place to dine in at. Their mutton biryani is what many people make the journey for. 

Saravanaa Bhavan 

For lovers of the South Indian Cuisine, Saravanaa Bhavan is your go to place. Known to be one of the world’s largest chain of vegetarian restaurant, their filter coffee is a treat for coffee lovers. What’s fascinating, their staff teach you to relish the beans the South Indian way in a steel glass and saucer.

Delhi Nihari

In the heart of Sharjah since the late 70s’ Delhi Nihari Restaurant has become a signature restaurant offering the finest Indo – Pak cuisine especially for its Nihari and barbecue.  

Pak Ghazi

One of Sharjah’s oldest causal dine-ins, you can enjoy a hot karak along with halwa, puri and choley for breakfast. Light on the wallet, its fresh fried hot jalebis are the signature dish.
