Available on delivery apps and increasingly popular with locals in Alkhobar, Anjar is a casual eatery that delivers comfort food with an unmistakable Levantine touch.
Whether you are in the mood for shawarma, falafel or freshly baked pastries, Anjar makes its mark with flavors that feel authentic and generous.
We started with the falafel, a classic that can easily disappoint if not handled well. Here, it was golden on the outside, soft inside and seasoned just right — earthy, fresh and far from oily.
The shawarma that followed kept the momentum. It was marinated with care and wrapped with all the right sauces. Every bite tasted balanced, the spices shining through without being overwhelming.
The pastry selection offered variety, from cheese pies to meat-filled delights. They came warm and filling, the kind of food that evokes home-cooked comfort. Flavors were clean, satisfying and clearly prepared with quality ingredients.
Even the presentation in delivery packaging showed thoughtfulness, which is not always guaranteed at this price point.
But there was one detail that stood out: the dough. While fresh, it leaned too heavy and soft, overshadowing the crisp textures inside. Instead of offering a light crunch, it felt dense at times. A thinner, crispier finish would elevate the experience, turning good into memorable.
That aside, service was smooth and efficient. Orders arrived on time, and were neatly packed and still hot.
Prices were also reasonable, making Anjar an accessible option for both quick bites and small family meals.
With Anjar, you know what to expect: straightforward flavors, hearty portions and a menu that balances classics with variety.
The brand already enjoys a loyal following, but with just a small tweak to its dough, it could set a new standard for casual Levantine dining in the Eastern Province.
