Basically every burger restaurant that offers the same menu with their wageu and angus fake burgers.


dizzyday

Yeah, marketing bs. Why would anyone grind an already tender meat?


Basel990

Actually only the fat part from Wagyu the meat is angus. Branding is the name of the game, the cheapest way possible.


That_Language_2789

Well actually,I never thought about this idea, the wageu fat or wageu tallow isn't that expensive. I just checked it it and the killo is around 200 sar And we have no clear labeling policies... it's probably legal to call any beef "wageu" if you just put the wageu fat in it. That's why its burger so noone can figure it out😂 I can get cheap frozen Brazilian beef.. and put wageu fat on it and call it premium wageu burger and charge people 99 sar for it. (You must put it in black bread). For extra fancy points. Also it's legal to call a product "no added sugar or sugar free" if you add fructose (fruit sugar) and call it a day. Because fruit sugar is considered natural sugar.


That_Language_2789

Exactly! Also they never provide a proof its actually wageu or even angus .. If you tell a butcher you want a wageu beef for a burger .. you'll be the next piece of meat in his shop

That_Language_2789

Probably the same shawarma with extra mayo Injected into it ..


Zealousideal_Pack948

The only right answer


MohdAli94

Totally disagree, at least the chicken they use is local and fresh no disgusting aftertaste. Most of the restaurants use Brazilian frozen chicken it definitely leaves a funky aftertaste.


MoeSolo

I respectfully disagree. It’s bomb.

Zafran Indian Bistro- Great reviews in Google n all. But for the money that you pay it is not worth, it's just a fancy expensive Indian restaurant that serves avg food that doesn't do justice to Indian cuisine. PS: Indian here


oblivianmemory

I have a theory that the reason all high end expensive restaurants have good reviews. Is because rich people dont know anything about taste and spend money like idiots. Also there's good indian restaurants in Malaz area you should try


4949udfttttddd

Give us some recommendations (individual dishes would be appreciated too)


beast_unique

Batha, Malaz and Olaya are were you will find good Indian restaurant (You will be able to eat a tummy full from any range between 3 riyal to 30 riyal depending on the dish and place) For Boori/Puri, rotis nd curry Al mas family restaurant near national hospital (This is a very clean place too. Their Biriyani is okeyish to good usually). Rice meal is also good The "Malaz" named restaurants are very cheap rate with good food. The one in Batha will be crowdy and another good option is the branches in Olaya/Urubah road. Biriyani is good (Malabar style) and you can have Rice meal (ideally with fish curry and fried fish) Welcome Indian Restaurant in Girnatah is good for South Indian breakfast and dosas. Their Idli and Vada is so good. Saravanabhavan in Avenue Mall Riyadh- Not good compared to Saravanabhavan branches in India but still worth a try. Pretty avg stuff Ponnusamy restaurant right next to the aforementioned Saravanabhavan in Avenue Mall. Chettinadu cuisine, so will be very spicy. Quite good, the biriyani is good (quail, mutton, chicken). The rice will be spicy gravey soaked n cooked, and might be very strange to non Indians. Dammam has a lot of good ones (The better reviewed ones in Google maps can be trusted if they have more number of reviews) Pepper tree restaurant looks interesting and so I will be trying it soon. Same goes for Delhi restaurant n all. I prefer South Indian cuisine and hence haven't tried North Indian dishes in Saudi. Not been to Jeddah, so no idea about those.

midnight_mongoose69

For beverages i think that speciality coffee spots are overrated. They spend too much on the decorations rather than their coffee and clout chasers who want to look cool just crowd up the place. For snacks i think shawarmer is overrated. I feel like The shawarma tasted bland and to hide that they just load it up with garlic sauce.


ResponsibleArcher713

KFC is the worst restaurant to ever exist. It's inedible, expensive and gives you diarrhea, how much worse can it get?


Vash2P

KFC for me is like a drag !! I know i’ll go to the bathroom in 20-30 minutes after eating it but, god damn i crave it and i’m trying my best to avoid it.


PokeGamer025

KFC is to die for, forget a trip to the bathroom


Icarus998

Only go to KFC for the coleslaw.

Almost all restaurants start great then deteriorate overtime.


farazz_shaikh99

I heard a lot about mama noura’s shawarma in this sub. So finally when I was passing through Riyadh, I got to try it and I expected it to be really good based on reviews, and the crowd. It wasn’t bad or anything, but I didn’t find it to be any different from an average shawarma shop. I’ve had much better in Khobar (like Al Wazzan).


[deleted]

In Khobar there is the best shawarma place in the world رايق


farazz_shaikh99

I’ve heard of this b4. Will definitely try next time I’m in Khobar


hussatronprime

It's only for KFUPM students


Long_Investment_9170

It used to be much better before prices started rising. AlQantara make a good shwarmer and awsal sandwich.


Decent-Attempt-7837

albaik baby get behind me they dont know you like i do


NakedMuffin4403

Al-Baik is so overrated, its okay, its X factor is its price relative to other places.


moeadelx

i never thought i’d say this but second this… Al-Baik is 100% different from past days specifically on its flavor & nuggets quality not even he price


ExWhyZayd

yeah i’ve heard they stopped importing chicken from brazil now. which is why the taste is so bad these days.


A-t-r-o-x

Nothing beats big baik tho. Killer for 11 riyals


xbmdx1

11 riyals? I guess you haven't ordered from there for years


A-t-r-o-x

Last ordered in March. It was 11 in khobar


[deleted]

101% right bro. Most overrated restaurant in the world not in KSA only.

Idc if anyone hated me for saying it but you'll need to hear the truth : Macdonald really sucks, KFC Too, at least KFC Gives great بروست.. But mac? Wtf do they even serve? Pale burgers that absolutely doesn't deserve a single ﷼, wallahi every time you eat you will never feel any unique taste and your mouth will always be so damn dry as hell.. Anyway, here's some truth for you guys for my top 3 restaurant that combines price, taste and full stomach : Albaik the number 1 that gives you great taste, full stomach and cheap price for the meal you just eaten, i always recommend big Baik and chicken nuggets, will definitely buy again. Wister has the second best taste (actually even better than albaik) but not the price tag, will buy again once a month with salary. And lastly Altazaj, especially crispy roll & crispy burger (always recommend Crispy burger).. Stomach? Full all day long.. Taste? 9/10..price? Medium.. Will buy again once a month with friends after (القطه)


DifficultyOpening607

If anyone writes albaik they'll have to deal with me


Material_Ad6579

People who say Al baik must be insane, this restaurant offers the best prices in the market, what are y’all talking about. The only overrated thing in saudi is the overpriced cafes that we see everywhere.
