Where Baghdad’s warmth meets the flavors of the Levant
A Celebration of Levantine Heritage
Founded in the heart of Baghdad, Set Al Sham Chain Restaurant was born from a deep desire to share the comforting tastes and vibrant hospitality of the Levant with every guest. Inspired by family recipes and cherished traditions, our journey began with a single table and a vision to make every meal memorable.
Our chefs carefully craft each dish—whether it’s savory mezze, tender shawarma, or delectable baklava—using time-honored methods and the freshest ingredients. Every plate is a tribute to the flavors of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine, thoughtfully recreated in a modern, welcoming setting.
At Set Al Sham, we believe that dining is about more than food; it’s about creating connections, sharing stories, and feeling at home. Our team is dedicated to ensuring every guest experiences the warmth and generosity that define true Levantine hospitality.
From lively family gatherings to intimate dinners, we invite you to join us at our table and become a part of our story—a story built on respect for heritage, a love for community, and the simple joy of sharing a meal.
