What dishes is Am Qasim Restaurants best known for?
Am Qasim Restaurants is known for royal areekah, its signature masoub, every kind of mutabbaq, hot tawajin, foul and tameez, as well as Adeni tea and traditional drinks.
Can I order online for delivery from the website?
Yes. The website offers direct online ordering for eligible branches, and it is also linked to approved delivery apps so your order reaches you fresh and hot.
How many Am Qasim branches are there, and where?
Am Qasim Restaurants has 23 branches in eight Saudi cities: Makkah, Jeddah, Riyadh, Madinah, Taif, Rabigh, Abha and Al Qunfudhah, including three new branches under construction. You can find your nearest branch on the branches page of the website.
What's the difference between areekah and masoub?
Areekah is kneaded and baked specially in the tannour, then mashed with local ghee, so it is richer and heavier. Masoub is made from bread that is already baked, mashed with local bananas and cream, so it is lighter and quicker. Both are served with honey, and choosing between them is a matter of time and mood rather than one being better.
Are prices the same at every branch?
Prices are similar but not identical, and calories can also vary with how each kitchen is equipped. That's why we show prices for the branch you choose at the top of the page.
Are allergens shown?
Yes. Every item on the menu carries allergen symbols: wheat, dairy, nuts, eggs and fish. If you have a specific allergy, let the branch know when you order.
