Restaurant Palmyra in Erlangen

Delicious food, generous portions, but not as many different offerings as before the change of ownership. Very tight seating conditions. But not in summer, when delicious and sumptuous food is served outside on the side of the road. However, the road is not closed.

I absolutely loved my experience at Restaurant Palmyra! The food was incredibly flavorful and authentic, with a perfect balance of spices and freshness. The mixed platter was a standout—everything from the grilled meats to the falafel and hummus was simply delicious. The cozy atmosphere, with its beautiful lanterns, made the dining experience even more special. The staff was very friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome throughout the meal. I highly recommend Palmyra to anyone looking for amazing Middle Eastern cuisine in Erlangen!

Top restaurant in Erlangen! Portions are enough to fill you up. The food was delicious and covered all types of meat except pork of course. Staff super nice, we first sat at the door. But the pull was so intense that we found it very uncomfortable. The waiter then put us away and even carried a table through the restaurant. There were 5 of us and we paid €150 including a 15% tip. Food & Drink. We didn't have to wait long for food either. Toilets were clean. Parking is difficult.

Our favorite restaurant in Erlangen and the surrounding area! By far the tastiest Arabic food! We always enjoy coming here.

Good food. Very friendly staff!

We recently dined here for work and everyone was pleasantly surprised. The owner was very accommodating with service and the food was tasty. We would come again.

We were there this Saturday just before Christmas. Reservation is worth it. It was completely full. And rightly so! Super delicious food. And in an authentic atmosphere - it seems to us unsuspecting people who have never been to the country before. Had a really nice evening there Service was very busy so you had to wait a bit Hence a star deduction

We spontaneously decided to visit the Palmyra on Friday evening with a total of five people, including two children. We were assured on a previous call that we could get a table. There was a huge rush, but we still got the table quickly. The food is exceptionally good and it was more than enough. We had to take some leftovers with us, but they were still great to eat the next day. The children also really enjoyed the food. We were also often asked about our well-being. We'd love to come back!

Unfortunately, it has diminished significantly. Unfortunately, the quality of the food is declining. Unfortunately, the service is now quite unfriendly and inattentive. Even the toilet has old dirt on it. We were quite enthusiastic for a while, but unfortunately we won't want to come again.

Great food! Price-performance is right. Always delicious!!

The mixed platters including starters are delicious. Be sure to reserve a table!

Very friendly service with good Arabic food. At the end there was traditionally tea with a date. Always my pleasure!

Thank you for this meal, it was very good and tasty, long live the chefs

The restaurant is fantastic, the food is very good, and the service is excellent ❤️❤️

Very good food, very good service, food tasted great

I can only recommend that I had dinner once by chance. I have been a regular customer for 6 years and all my friends and family have also simply been the best restaurant in Erlangen and the surrounding area in my opinion 👌

Small cozy restaurant, food is delicious I loved it

I thought I knew the Arabic cuisine but oh... Palmyra Restaurant showed me what truly is it. Amazing spices and textures, it was the best Arabic food I ever had. The place was crowded even on a Tuesday, and after the first bite it's easy to understand why. Expensive, but delicious to perfection. All the salads, the creams (specially the garlic cream and the hummus), the meats. The aromatic tea by the end was a wonderful touch by the owner. I really enjoyed and recommend it.

It was my first time eating here. The order came super quickly and was very, very tasty! I have nothing to complain about.

Grilled chicken is very bad and very overpriced

Very tasty food and large selection. The lamb and the minced meat roll were overcooked for my taste. Falafel were super tasty and the semolina cake was especially great.

The meat was incredibly tender and so delicious! You didn't have to wait long at all for your orders. The service was also really great, they took care of us immediately and also came by to ask if everything was okay

Very tasty Arabic restaurant. Everything was delicious. The service was also good. The starters are simply amazing

Extremely good place, reasonable prices, the service is great and they make it clear to serve you well, the food is freshly made and can thus be changed how you wish, which is great and very convenient for any allergies.

We ordered appetizers and the Palmyra platter. Extremely tasty and great service. I was thrilled.

A bit cramped but very comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food is very tasty. The various starters are excellent. It's better to reserve a table in advance, it's always very busy.

Delicious and you would need a sofa in the back room afterwards..very nice and quick service.simply a top address!!

The food was extremely tasty and also happened very quickly. extremely recommended

The best Syrian food I've ever tasted! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Syrian cuisine!

A beautiful restaurant with a feel-good atmosphere. Real candles and flowers, such nice service (such friendly people!) and very quick, even though the place was full. We came as a couple and without a reservation and they still checked and organized that we would still be accommodated. The food was high quality and just so delicious. Clear recommendation, we will definitely try to come back more often. One of the best restaurant visits we've ever had. 🫶🏼

I am the most German potato the West has ever seen. But here it is premium 👌🏻 Food, service and ambience simply great :)

Too tasty and fast service plus friendly staff

Very quick food and super tasty. 👍😋

I adore every aspect of this restaurant. The food quality is consistently excellent, and the menu offers great variety. The staff are friendly and highly professional. Each dish feels like it tells a delightful story.

The food was very good 👍 Despite having a reservation, we had to wait a bit and the service was generally not the fastest, but it was very friendly

Absolutely first class food! Also a great selection for vegetarians. Very friendly and attentive service. We particularly liked that the waitress made sure that food wasn't thrown away. She pointed out the option of takeaway. (At the neighboring table, a richly laid table that was half-eaten should be thrown in the trash by the guests) Thank you for a lovely evening with you!

Eating at Palmyra is always an absolute highlight. The different dips in particular are amazing!

Really very good food. Very nice service. We'll definitely be back.

As always, a very nice evening and a very tasty meal with courteous service! Any time

Everything was excellent, sometimes you wait a little, but it was definitely worth the wait :D

Very tasty food! Great service in the middle of Erlangen city center!

Exceptional! You get a lot, superb quality and very good people!

If you want to eat typical Syrian food, Palmyra is unfortunately the wrong place for you. Unfortunately, the restaurant is based on the eating habits of the guests. Who e.g. For example, if you order Muhammara (paste with red pepper and walnuts), it will be served without walnuts, as many guests have a nut allergy and therefore simply leave out the nuts that are essential for the dish. Of course it is noticeable in terms of taste (to us it only tasted like tomato paste, not even like peppers). Then we also ordered Fatayir (dumplings filled with spinach, feta and meat). However, we were only served dumplings filled with feta and a touch of spinach. Reason: There are many vegetarians and that is why dumplings filled with meat are no longer available. We also ordered mutabal (grilled eggplant cream with yogurt). At first we thought we were served something wrong because the cream only tasted like yogurt. However, we were told that this was definitely mutabal and that because of the guests, we would use less eggplant because the intense taste of it would not be desired. There are also dishes with coriander on the menu, but they can be prepared without coriander, as this taste is not well received by the guests. Unfortunately, the changes to the recipes are not visible on the map. The card should definitely be adjusted or you should point this out when ordering. Also, if one rightly complains for the reasons mentioned above, at least an apology or compensation would be expected. Unfortunately, we weren't asked for additional drinks once, even though we often had an employee at our table to ask about the dishes. It's a shame that the one hour journey wasn't worth it.

beste arabische Küche in der ganzen Region. Erstklassige Qualität und super lecker! Das Personal ist auch immer sehr zuvorkommend, besonders der Eigentümer. Wir gehen hier immer wieder gerne hin. Ganz klare Empfehlung.

Was very tasty. Great service. We can only recommend it. 🥗🍴

Super nice fast service! And the food is always freshly prepared and tastes very good. We particularly recommend the starter platter for 2 people, which easily serves as a main course.

Excellent service !! Quality - price is great

Unproblematic spontaneous reservation, incredibly attentive employee arrived (possibly the boss) who already grabbed our drinks from the conversation and brought them💫 Food was really great with the best I've eaten from the region and it came about 30 minutes after we ordered, which was completely okay :) Food was plenty for an advertised plate for 2 people 😄 Gladly again

The best food in all of Erlangen. The location and atmosphere reminds you of being on vacation and the price/performance ratio is simply phenomenal!

The large appetizer platter was enough for 2 people and super tasty. We had to have the vegetarian main dishes, which were also very good, packed up and eaten with pleasure the next day.

It was my first time there and I have to say that I was completely blown away by the food and the quality. I now eat there as often as I can. The service was very very good.

One of the best oriental restaurants in Germany. Service top 👌🏻, taste like home 🏡. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great food, still open at 10 p.m Highly recommended!!!!

I was at the Palmyra restaurant with a friend...the food was delicious, the staff was very professional...the ambience was very pleasant...everything was excellent...prices were reasonable and matched the excellent service...topped it was with the beautiful oriental music and the black tea made with love.. In addition, German, Arabic, Italian, Turkish, Kurdish and more are spoken there...you can only find this beautiful in Palmyra... Recommended only 100% Please always stay like this!

Everything is fine. Will experience it again if I have the chance.

Very tasty food and large portions. Highly recommended

The food was very nice and the salad was excellent especially the food I liked the service very much so I gave it five stars

The salad and the food were perfect. They brought my service in the same time as they said, I had this meal served at home, they brought exactly the same thing as I requested, so I give them five stars.

The food was excellent. It was a meal that really left its taste on my palate, but I would prefer you to taste it. It was super average inside. The service was top notch and when you look around while sitting inside, an old culture comes to your eyes. I think you should not go to Germany and return without tasting this meal.

Food very good and atmosphere good

Palmyra platter for two people is huge, had to pack half of it :) Service 10/10, very nice and gives tea on the house

We had a lovely evening with delicious food, a great ambience and extremely courteous staff. I say thank you very much and see you next time 👍🏻

Very, very good, I was very pleased. The staff are very nice and very friendly when it comes to eating.

I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant so many times in a year. I was never disappointed. Excellent food, loving staff, everything is always wonderful. All the starters are particularly recommended and if you like something heartier, you will be happy with the Palmyra plate!

A luxurious restaurant, wonderful popular dishes, and the staff are very nice to the guests. Special thanks to the workers in the kitchen for preparing this food in a good and healthy way.

Super delicious food and lovely service! A big recommendation

Great experience, great food , 5 star

Very tasty food and you can sit outside well, also very good service

Very friendly service and great, delicious food, suitable for families... Always happy, top 🔝

Top food, top service Really worth recommending!!

Great Lebanese cuisine and very friendly staff. There is also something warm to eat after 10 p.m.

Very good food, very nice service, can only be recommended...

A beautiful location in Erlangen with really good food, a nice ambience and fair prices. There are also good food options for vegetarians. After the meal we even got home-made tea on the house. The service was also really good, the whole family put a lot of passion into it.

Good and varied food, good and friendly service. In our opinion, the music was a little too loud to have a pleasant conversation.

Super nice staff, super delicious food. Definitely recommended. Tip: When it comes to grill plates, always order less for one person.

We had a wonderful evening with delicious food and large portions. Definitely again!

Everything was great, the service was incredibly nice and you felt welcome, and the food was great too! We'll be back, thank you for the great evening!

Delicious food and great ambience :) huge portion, we'll be happy to come back!

The food was great. It was easy to order a grill plate for the group and then share it with each other. There were three of us there, but we “only” took a grill plate for two people. But even this was more than sufficient. We took the leftovers home with us and were able to enjoy them again at home 🙂 We will definitely come again. P.S. Another star for the nice waitress, who did her best to serve us despite her fear of our dog👍🏻

Very good place!! The staff is lovely and the food was amazing!! We could even take the left overs with us!

We had an amazing tasting platter. More than enough, very tasty and friendly staff!

The food was super tasty and good portions👍😋 Very nice service! We will definitely come back!

Super place with delicious mezzes. Really friendly staff.

great atmosphere and great food ❤️

Unfortunately, we do not recommend the restaurant to the Arab world because, frankly, the food they make is not Arabic food I ordered 2 Shawarmateller and 2 Ayran Of course, after an hour of waiting, the food came and I wish it had not come 🥲 Shawarma consists of pieces of chicken cooked in a frying pan and not on a skewer as is not the norm. The rice and chicken contain a lot of oil, not natural, and this is instead of the fact that the cook has no experience. The salad is not very clean or not washed, so we waste the bowl with lemon salt and vinegar Ayran milk does not have a good taste or even experience in preparing what is made up of - milk, salt, water, and dried mint. We mix them together and we make a drink and offer them to customers. Account: There was a grassroots world behind me who wanted to pay and their account came out. 29 After they paid, they came back and counted the one who voted on him and called for him. The sheikh appeared to be a “saboteur” by paying the account 24 It happened with me personally and I requested 2 Shawrmateller 15€ x2 = 30€ 3 Iranian 4€ x3 =12 30+12 = 42 WIR HABEN BEZAHLT 46€ I mean, if you want to take extra, it's not a problem, but the reception and preparation are very bad, and the food is disgraceful and far from Syrian cuisine and has nothing to do with it.

The Palmyra is rightly one of the best restaurants in Erlangen! The food is always delicious and there is a large selection of Syrian specialties on offer. The service is very quick and always helpful. In summer you can spend the evening in front of the restaurant in a relaxed atmosphere. The Palmyra absolutely deserves 6/5 ⭐️.

Spontaneously while passing through... despite the full tables, a small table was set up for me... a small starter and small salad were more than enough and by far one of the tastiest starter plates I've ever eaten. Big recommendation for anyone who gets stranded here... you can be back at the train station in 5 minutes

The food is very good and the portions are large. The people there are incredibly nice.

Very tasty food. We had the upside down rice with chicken. Very spicy, not too spicy. Only the chicken was a bit dry. We also had Farouj Mousahab. The chicken here was very juicy. Delicious flatbread. Deductions in the B grade because we initially didn't get any bread as a starter. We will come back.

Very good Syrian restaurant, there is a lot of choice with typical dishes. The service is fast and the terrace is very pleasant.

Very tasty food!! We'll definitely be back 😁

Wonderful food, super lovely staff, great boss! Completely satisfied

Really really strong! Always my pleasure. Great food and service!

everything is delicious.. gracias abo qosai

Super tasty, good prices, very nice staff. Always my pleasure.

Incredibly delicious food and very, very nice service. Also nice and quiet seating outside. Highly recommended!

Great service and the food is so delicious!😍

Top. We are happy. Delicious. ✨

The food is excellent and tasty and the place is pleasant

First I have to say that the service is really not attentive. Unfortunately, you are completely ignored. The ambience isn't really impressive either. The dips and the food are outstanding. The hummus is indescribably good. And I have never tasted such a good garlic dip. This is world class!
