Emirati Hospitality

The First Authentic Emirati Cuisine in Montenegro
Welcome to

ARABIAN TEA HOUSE

Arabian Tea House is the first Emirati halal restaurant to open overseas. Its establishment in the wonderful cities of Montenegro owes to the success of its mother-company, Arabian Tea House in UAE. The vision for establishing Arabian Tea House is to preserve the cultural identity of the Arabs with an inspiration from the Emirati household inherited recipes.  The cozy ambience of the restaurant makes it an amazing place for everyone to relax during the day. The Traditional Aroma of Emirati food makes Arabian Tea House a hidden Gem compared to other restaurants in Podgorica and Ulcinj. We are one of the best halal restaurants in Podgorica

One of the best shawarmas in Podgorica! We’ve tried it a bunch of times, and it never disappoints. Out of all the options they have on the menu, the chicken shawarma is still our favorite. The lemonades there are very good as well.

This is one of my favourite restaurants in Podgorica, even tough I am not living in this city, but every chance me and my husbund get we go to eat there because the food is great and service is excellent.However, last time we came and we were disapointed.Starting from waitress which was not so pleasant( i dont want to say rude) where we asked to get a bigger cup for tea because this is how usually we are drinking here as regular guests, she gave us lecture about standards of restaurants even tough the table she set up was not close for this standard she claimed.Ashtray dirty and full of water( photo below)My favourite dish, Saloona Vegetables was not even close for who this is usually served( it was overcooked and I got a feeling like I am eating some oatmeal, so thick)Rice was not seasoned at all, and simple salad what we were eating was made from not so fresh ingredients, not seasoned at all.I understand that everyone in hospitality industry is also human and have bad days, but we traveled a lot of kilometers for this dinner and we are just so sad.I am going to think about coming next time, which is very so devastating taking into account that this is only Arabian cuisine in Montenegro which is authentic.

Best food we have had in Montenegro! Incredible. Don’t miss the chance to eat here. I also loaded up on spices from Dubai that I have been missing. Sat outside with the sun on our backs and a kitty beside us. Helpful and kind staff. Food was incredible flavorful, fresh, quality and everything we could have hoped for. Also, really reasonable price point for the portions.

This is spectacular restaurant! We loved atmosphere and food was very delicious! The waiter is very polite and helpful.I specially loved taste of rose jam. It would be fantastic if it's possible to buy a jar of that jam like spices. They have a lot of East spices. I bought some of them. We will come back definitely!

It was a more than pleasant experience, the food was good, we got several smaller meals, good tea and a delicious dessert!We met some of the staff a day ago at a summer festival in the city and ate some of their falafels. The next afternoon we spent at their really cozy terrace and planned our next trip. We had a lovely afternoon with delicious food and perfect service.Thanks a lot and all the best.

My family and I absolutely fell in love with this place! The food is heavenly, the service is nice and helpful. We both went and dined there and also ordered the delivery to our apartment. The delivery was super quick, everything was packed very neatly. The staff at the restaurant was friendly as well. I would especially recommend Karak tea and their traditional desserts.

I loved this place! Atmosphere is really nice and place is very good decorated. Once you sit here, you will start feeling like you are really in some Arab country. There is plenty of choices in menu. Only thing they were running out is Arabic coffee but I believe they get it until now. Food is really tasty and prices are affordable. If you are looking for place to try from some other cultures food, I believe this place is offering lot of Arabic dishes which are prepared in authentic way. Staff is really nice and friendly! Recommending!

Our experience at Arabian Tea House this morning was exceptional. The excellent and prompt service, and we were particularly impressed by the fantastic breakfast. Taking advantage of their 50% off promotion for breakfast, we enjoyed discount prices, but we ordered additional dishes and beverages without reduction. While the food quality was consistently good, their hummus stood out as the best I’ve ever had. Incredibly creamy and perfectly seasoned, it was a true delight. The falafel was excellent, and the liver was tender and expertly prepared. We lingered even after finishing our meal because we love the ambiance, enjoying a leisurely cup of coffee. We wholeheartedly recommend Arabian Tea House for its outstanding food, service, and atmosphere.
I ordered for to take away. Had their very tasty milk-tea specialty as I waited for the order to be ready, which was pretty fast, and enjoyed the delicious food at home :)Very friendly service.

It is a halal food place in Podgorica. We ordered a grounded lamb meat sandvich, falafel and lentil soup. They were all delicious. Place is neat and clean.

From my point of view an excellent Restaurant. Food is great, especially the breakfasts are so delicious. You have free parking slots, feeding chairs for infants, quiet atmosphere, great waitresses (special thanks to Aldin, who does a super great job & Mila, for the nice conversations).My special recommendation is the Liver breakfast for two. But everything is great. Excellent price value. 5*+ its one of few halal restaurants in town.

Delicious food, great atmosphere and lovely service. We will definitely come again!Cold Mint tea is definitely the best I've tried. Food is seasoned nicely, the spices that are used are working its charm. The black tea with milk brought us back to Pakistan and how Amma used to make the tea for us.

Beautiful interior, tasty food (the juice was great!). I would expect hummus arriving before the main dishes but it was not a big issue for us. I would come back to try other dishes too.

Despite the great falafels, the overall experience at the restaurant was somewhat disappointing.I visited this place craving some tender meat and delighted in the opportunity to explore a different cuisine compared to the usual offerings in Podgorica. The ambiance was lovely with authentic decor and music.However, I was disappointed when asking the waiter's advice for tender dish recommendations. I received a vague response that everything was 'tender.' I hope for more informed recommendations in the future.For starters, I ordered the falafel appetisers and cold chai. The falafels were very succulent and moist inside. They had a distinct flavour coupled with a crunchy bite. Really good!On the other hand, the cold chai was quite bland and watery.Moving on to the main course, I opted for the popular 'Laham Machboos.' Sadly it did not live up to my expectations. Despite the generous portion, the meat proved chewy and dry in some parts, leaving me unable to finish it, which was quite disappointing.To conclude the meal, I savored some hot chai, which was excellent and even better than the chai I had tried at Filli Cafe in the UAE. The strong cardamom flavor truly made it stand out.Overall the food was decently and the service was okay.I would appreciate more informed recommendations and have the waiters occasionally ask if I need anything. I felt as though I had to actively get their attention more than a few times.

If u are Asian and missing the “rice” back home. Then This place is the best for you. Food makes u feel home. Staff are super friendly mostly FILIPINO so expect the overwhelming hospitality they will give u. Atmosphere is very greek mediterranean that gives u that blue and white cozy vibes. Feels like u eating in an island somewhere by the beach. Food money wise is very affordable yet u get the best food u can imagine. And the serving is huge!!! Try it for yourself so u will experience it. Enjoy!

Non stable service.3 times we ordered tartilljia (shaurma), all 3 times other taste & other adds.They tell that inside is no cabbage!!!They name it salad😠For all restaurant today 1 person as waitress, cashier & ice cream maker. Who you need to catch to make order.Shaurma was good only first time, that was a reason to visit this place 2 more times.

Food is well seasoned with traditional eastern spices so it really is a new experience for most in Podgorica, the staff is kind and the prices are not too high. Quality of meat is also really good. Karak tea is a must here.

Nice place and delicious food. Staff is super professional and helpful. My favorite dish is liver breakfast with karak tea. That’s the combination everybody should try. But my absolutely recommendation should be definitely Karak tea, the best tea I’ve ever tried. They are making it with special pieces from Asia.

Very delicious food, many options to choose from, including vegetarian. Salads are amazing, I totally recommend you to take some with your food.I am only sorry we ate too much to try some desserts after. :)) But we did drink their black tea, which is also very good.Staff is extremly nice!

This place is a true refreshment considering too many pizza/barbecue places in Montenegro. Podgorica needed something like this. The menu is amazing. There are so many interesting things and they all taste great. Service was very good, thanks to Kenan. He was very friendly and helpful. Prices are more than reasonable.

Lovely halal restaurant in Podgorica, wonderful and very helpful staff. Their umm Ali and chicken biryani was also particularly yummy. Went for breakfast and returned for dinner. Great food portions and even better prices.

The food was really delicious. The service was also very nice. At first we were unsure what to order because everything on the menu sounded good. The chef, who originally comes from Egypt, recommended a very tasty combination of two dishes. There was also hummus and a really delicious sweet specialty on the house. That was really very nice. It was a very successful dinner and we will definitely come back.

We were a group of 20, quite a large group and the staff was super accommodating, specially Kristine the manager had everything ready in advance, we had our own tables et up on the lively terrace. The food was delicious and everyone was served promptly. They have an extensive menu with options to suit most and the portions are very good... You may have to take away. We also did a take away order and it was perfect again. Overall outstanding. All halal - Will definitely come back again.
