Fatima und die 9 Zwerge in Dresden

A good lahmacun, but it lacks something to be perfect.

Fatima is truly an institution. Good and inexpensive food. Fatima is a passionate cook who loves entertaining guests.

The food tasted perfect. The service was like a dream. The shop owner is such a nice and generous mouse. A 10/10 recommendation.

The menu is manageable but there should be something for everyone. Portions are very good considering the price and the service is very friendly. Preparation takes a little longer but she really puts a lot of effort into it and you are happy to accept the waiting time. The taste is also great. I'd love to come back when I'm nearby.

I love the food and the service, I still get something at 1:00 a.m., three hours after closing time.

Excellent in all aspects! Super tasty food, very well served and good price. Delicious!

Super lovely boss/cook/hostess really tasty, as always 👍

super friendly service, seems familiar and was really awesome

Make probably the best vegan falafel roll in DD or share first place with Gemini. More than recommended for animal lovers (i.e. vegans)

Super delicious food (I had the chicken dish), I can absolutely recommend it. Everyone was very nice, a great experience.👍

The food was incredibly delicious! Cooked with a lot of love and generous portions 🥰 We would be happy to come back, thank you for the great dining experience 😋

This was the tastiest meal I've eaten in a long time! The owner is an incredibly hospitable, warm and nice lady. I can recommend this restaurant to everyone. If my path takes me to Dresden again, I will definitely stop by again! Many greetings from the Rhineland

Mashallah very good food. Tastes like my mom would cook.

Very tasty food, nice staff and the price is also super fair

The small shop is very compact and there isn't too much on offer, which is also very tasty because the only dishes are really tough. And you can always have a good chat with the owner.

A really great and unique treat awaits you at Fatima and the 9 Dwarves. I have never eaten such delicious hummus. And you have to say - I never eat hummus because otherwise it's not my thing. All dishes are excellently seasoned and huge. You can easily eat one portion for a second day. The owner is a kind-hearted lady whose passion and commitment are completely reflected in the shop. You come as a guest and leave as a family. This is very important here. Thank you for your food paradise. We would love to come back and tell everyone how great it is with you! Oh and the price is unbeatable. The overall package is simply great. :)

I'm too busy eating to write a review But that says it all

Super nice people Really delicious food 12/10 I would do it again!

Super delicious food. The only food I continue to eat even when I'm full because it's so delicious.

★★★★★ fantastic cuisine & warm service! I had the pleasure of visiting this wonderful bistro and I highly recommend it! There is noticeably passion in everything here - from the delicious food to the loving service. The dishes are prepared with a lot of love, taste of the highest quality and are always fresh. You immediately notice that the focus here is on quality and tradition. But what really makes the bistro special is the warm, familiar atmosphere. The entire team is incredibly friendly, attentive and makes you feel welcome from the first moment. It's like eating with good friends. A perfect place for connoisseurs who appreciate good food and honest hospitality. I'll definitely be back!

A gem! Everything is just right here: the food, the atmosphere and the service. On top of that, there is generosity and warmth. Fatima and her nine dwarves is like the Orient around the corner.

The food was very leggy. I have never eaten such good rice!!! I'll probably become a regular customer now. All I can think about is your food. I am so grateful that you exist. Thanks for this great meal!

I have rarely eaten as well as I did here... it was the best rice we have ever eaten. The portions are quite large and the prices are more than fair. Top quality and you can also get a second helping. This family business is absolutely warm, passionate and kind. We'll be back! An absolute recommendation!

Found it by chance yesterday while passing through. Small snack bar run by a friendly family with very tasty Jordanian food. We are happy to recommend Fatima and her dwarves.

Top class experience. Delicious food, large portions, second helpings if necessary, great and friendly hosts, very fair prices, individual service, everyone pitches in a little or slips together. International, young audience. Small location. Very cozy. Delicious baklava and a black spiced tea to finish. We'll definitely be back.

Absolutely the best place to have a dinner with friends!

Delicious food! But the hit is the very friendly and eager operator of the small bistro. So warm. ♥️

The store is incredible. Delicious, cozy and offers the best price-performance ratio I have ever experienced. For little money you can eat for a good week here. Family atmosphere and good food, what more could you want?

Just fantastic! A cosy small place, with extremely friendly folks and delicious food.

The price-performance ratio is very good and the food is very tasty. The service is also very nice. The only small drawback is that there is little seating in winter because the snack bar inside is not very big and the terrace is closed. Still highly recommended.

Great little restaurant/takeaway with always friendly people and the best food.

A small but very nice restaurant. Whether to take away or on site, it's always great. The food is fresh and tastes excellent.

The best address in Dresden and the surrounding area for Arabic cuisine. An absolute top recommendation!!

Authentic Jordanian cuisine! Really very tasty dishes at reasonable prices. The owners were also very friendly and accommodating. It can be a bit tight on site but that didn't bother us. We will 100% come back

But you have to call and ask before picking up to cook faster

Never felt so comfortable in a restaurant. The food was prepared with love, large portions for a fair price. Whenever I'm in Dresden, a visit to Fatima is a must! Always with new friends, none of whom have been disappointed yet

Very, very unfortunate! We were there on a recommendation. The falafel and baklava are unfortunately pre-made industrial goods. Nevertheless, we wish you continued satisfied guests!

best falafel in town and nicest people alive!!

There is really good food here at a good price. The menu is small, but that's an advantage because it allows better quality to be offered in a shorter time. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. It's a bit tight but somehow that adds to the atmosphere.

Sweet little restaurant with super nice staff, huge portions of delicious food and incredibly low prices - top :)

This is probably the best falafel wrap in all of Dresden... So good that for once I don't have a photo because it was eaten before I thought about taking a photo. Why is the falafel wrap so good here? Because he does pretty much everything right: the falafel is crispy, well seasoned and made from coarse chickpea pieces. The vegetables are crunchy and fresh, but there are also pickled vegetables in there which have a nice slightly sour note that contrasts perfectly with the falafel. You also do NOT save on sauce and the garlic cream, which is also included, fits perfectly here. And last but not least, the bread/wrap used here is also lightly seasoned and I mean briefly fried so that it also has a good taste. And on top of that, the price is fair and the portion size is good... And because that's not enough, the service is very nice, even if we had to wait a bit. I just don't think the ambience is that good, but it's still okay and there are enough chairs too. All in all, a clear recommendation for the falafel wrap! I definitely want to try the other dishes :-)

Just a great meal. The only thing you need to bring is time. Many people love this store. Please give a tip. The prices are really very good for what you get here.

What a great, warm and delicious snack. We were thrilled with the quality and the price-performance ratio.

Very friendly hosts. Fresh, delicious food at a more than fair price.

Very very tasty! 🤝 The portion was quite large, so I had the rest packed up and got a little more. Thanks so much.

Whenever I get the chance I get some Falafel here. Great atmosphere, great food, fantastic hosts 🤤

Thank you for the great food, I'll definitely be back. A portion is huge, best value for money in Dresden.

I like the food of this restaurant too much 😍

Super dear operators, authentic and very tasty food and (probably) the best price-performance ratio when it comes to falafel rolls.

I have rarely eaten something so incredibly delicious, WOW! Had the vegetarian plate and the bread and it was really so delicious, I'm already looking forward to my next visit!! The staff is also incredibly friendly. Everyone in Dresden should visit this shop! <3

Great food. Highly recommended.

What a nice surprice! A small Eatery run by a very friendly family, food is very nice - especially the mixed rice , you can park in nearby streets for free

A little paradise at the Nuremberg Egg, close to the university. You could write a novel here. The food is incredibly delicious, both the rolls and the plates. You'll always be full, and if the massive portions aren't enough, you can get a second helping if you're very hungry. Fatima is simply the best. Rarely have I met such lovely, kind-hearted people. The shop is nice, cozy, but very small. In winter it is often difficult to get a place, but Fatima does her best and finds a free corner everywhere. Small, real, great feel-good place for a wonderful lunch or dinner!

Very tasty, incredibly nice and caring owners. Little insider tip!

lovingly delicious let's go there again please

Very tasty food and extremely well served. Fatima is exceptional, kind, friendly, with a huge smile on her face and quick to respond. We had the best meal during our trip through Germany thanks to this extraordinary experience! We felt at home due to a welcoming atmosphere. The price is very fair!

I have been living in Dresden for two months now, and I can confidently say that my experience at Fatima has been unparalleled. The ambience, food, service, and overall quality were outstanding, but what stood out the most was Fatima's kindness and warmth, which made us feel truly special. I visited with a friend who was visiting from Erfurt, and we were absolutely blown away by the food. The potatoes were simply incredible – unlike anything I’ve ever tasted before. The falafel was equally remarkable, with a flavor that’s hard to match anywhere. Fatima's hospitality was heartwarming, and Mr. Abid’s kindness added to the experience. He even took the time to chat with us, making us feel like valued guests. The generosity of the staff was evident when they offered us more potatoes, but we were already too full to accept. The free black coffee was a delightful surprise and truly a game-changer – the perfect end to an already perfect meal. The portions were generous, the prices unbeatable, and the entire experience felt like being cared for by my mother. Fatima’s restaurant is a gem, where simplicity and heart shine through. It’s now my go-to spot for dining out in Dresden. A solid 10/10 and an experience I would recommend to anyone.

Finally tried it and it tasted so delicious! When I asked, I got hummus extra for the vegetarian plate. It was said that many people don't like hummus and therefore it is no longer always available. Incomprehensible, people😅! Best hummus! Good thing I asked😅👍! Everything very tasty! Definitely come back soon! And super nice owner (?)! So service is also great👍!

We were welcomed here with open arms with a lot of heart and charm. Fatima was so warm and attentive to us and put together great plates for us to try so that we couldn't miss anything. The tea and the small guest room to sit in gave us a little “welcome home” feeling. The portions are absolutely fair for the price, you can almost eat twice from one portion. And about the food...what can you say...simply fantastic. We thank you for this wonderful insight into Jordanian cuisine and would be happy to come back for a visit on your next vacation.

The food is delicious and Fatima is a kind-hearted woman. I always enjoy going there and feel totally at home every time. Most of the time you have to put in some time, but I'm happy to accept that.

Everything great!! Very delicious food and Fatima is just such a warm and lovely person!!

Actually, I should write a novel about how beautifully, deliciously and nicely the food is served here. Very authentic little shop with an incredibly lovely boss who runs it as a family business. The food is always fresh and prepared with a lot of love. I can simply recommend it to everyone. You come as a guest and leave as part of the family. Thanks for everything Fatima 🙏

By far the best food you can get in Dresden. Amazing!

Only takes cash. Delicious hummus, falafel and rice. Food was definitely 5/5. Cozy and small restaurant. But due to the way they handle food, lots of cross contamination so may not be suitable for all vegans and those with certain allergies. Have some good tea as well. Pros: Falafel, homemade hummus, which are vegan. Also vegan baklava Cons: Cross contamination-handle meat with bare hands

Me and my two friends were passing through Dresden late at night. The owner stayed extra late and gave us a very warm welcome despite the late time. She even set a beautiful table for us, and the food was incredibly delicious! It was a great pleasure for us! Next time I visit Dresden I will definitely visit this place again.

The shop is small but nice and the food is so delicious. Everything is home-cooked, with no additives or junk. Great value for money!!!

Great food and very nice service

Small and fine restaurant. Highly recommended! Sometimes you wait a little longer but it's worth it :) very tasty vegan and vegetarian dishes.

On a cold, chilly day, we were craving something comforting and homely and we ended up finding this place. The host is absolutely wonderful, so kind and welcoming, and the food carries that same warm, homely touch with unique, delightful flavors. We ordered a falafel teller and a beef cutlet teller, which usually come with rice. Everything was delicious but the tea was a standout, fragrant with hints of cardamom and possibly saffron. Just amazing. Though the place is small, it feels incredibly cozy and inviting, like being at home. The host truly has my heart, what a kind and warm soul. A must-visit when in Dresden!

Very friendly atmosphere and delicious food..good choice for students!

A small, sweet restaurant with very, very good food at extremely fair prices.

Fatima is super nice and serves the best food! Huge portions at extremely fair prices, falafel rolls are twice as big as a Dürum. The tea at the entrance also tastes very good. To take away you can also simply bring your own Tupperboxes and they will then fill them up 🔥 highly recommended

Super tasty, super sweet, super place.

The food was very tasty, very plentiful and varied at a fair price. Fatima is so warm and sweet!!! There is free tea with your meal. We'll definitely be back! Be sure to keep it up. It's very rare to find so much passion these days!!!

Every month my friends and I visit some foreign cuisine in Dresden, this time we chose Jordan. Reservations are not possible, but luckily there was one table left for us. The spaces are small but cozy. The owner is very very pleasant, the food is interesting, tasty. We were thrilled and would love to come back!

Very good food, friendly service and also good baklava.

Very tasty food, best baklava I have ever eaten. Very friendly staff

20/5 stars!! My absolute favorite restaurant. Every time incredibly delicious food, every time incredibly nice conversations and every time you are treated incredibly well. If you haven't eaten here yet, you should definitely try it out!! Also recommended for vegetarians/vegans!

We got food for the first time today. It was super tasty. Very generous portions and super lovely owners. We'll definitely be back.

That was a pure taste explosion. Simply delicious and highly recommended.

Incredibly lovely and hospitable service and super good food :)

The food is so delicious and we were treated incredibly warmly and pampered!! A visit to Fatima is absolutely recommended!!! Thank you!!!

Super friendly, the food was excellent and very reasonably priced

The seller is so nice and the food is amazing!!

Incredibly nice service that makes you feel at home. She likes to be generous with food and simply takes time for her customers. You can tell that she really enjoys her work and puts her heart into it. And now for food: It just tastes bomb...done 👍 And the food is also absolutely affordable for students. Always happy🙏

I have never been welcomed so warmly in a restaurant. And the food was also amazing! For a very good price you will be absolutely full and can still have a nice chat with Fatima. After dinner we took some food with us (even though we were full). The service was really great too. If the self-service tea was empty, you were immediately given a pot for the table because the large container would have taken too long. Even on a Saturday at 10 p.m. we were still able to eat and get the best service. Always happy ♥️

Wirklich super leckeres veganes Angebot! Falafel mit köstlichen Gewürzen und auch vegane Desserts aus der arabischen Küche. Wer Hühnchen möchte, wird auch fündig und die Betreiber sind sehr herzlich. Absolute Empfehlung!

It's always nice here. Rarely such a warm atmosphere. Of course, eating is also a flower picking experience for the taste buds.

Very, very tasty, highly recommended ✅👍

Super delicious!! And super inexpensive!! Waiting time is OK too :)

Super tasty and very nice and warm staff!!! The prices are also really extremely fair. I had the vegetarian plate and I was very full and happy afterwards :D There is also free tea after the meal.. 20/10!!!

I came Dresden for a day on a business trip. Was looking for a place to have lunch and after seeing the reviews, someone mentioned this place is a gem in Dresden and I completely agree. The food was super delicious and a very generous portion. And sister Fatima is an amazing and kind lady, she took the time explain the menu to me. She also encourages to take only the amount of food which you can finish, to avoid wastages of food. Pay a visit, you will not regret!

Definitely one of the best shops in Dresden! Fatima is an absolute icon, super friendly and warm-hearted. The food tastes fabulous and the portions are very large for the price. The best shawarma roll I've ever eaten! However, food tends to be a bit greasy, you have to like it. Unfortunately it's a bit tight to sit inside, but in summer you can also sit outside the door.

Thank you for this wonderful shop! Very nice atmosphere there, cozy Arabic music in the background, absolutely delicious food and such lovely staff!

Extremely delicious food, great owners, thank you!

The service is incredibly nice and friendly! For the price it is so tasty and the portion is generous. I love going here and bringing everyone I know with me! :)

A bit like eating with friends with an oriental flair. Always well attended. And delicious!

Great food with original taste at reasonable price. Definitely recommended!!

What a wonderful shop. My wife and I were thrilled. If you haven't been here yet, you should definitely try it. If you've been there before, you should go back soon 😀

We arrived about 45 minutes before closing time and were given a warmer welcome than ever before in a restaurant. The owner put together a great and tasty portion for us. There is warm tea and baklava. We will definitely be back :)
