First Time At Damascus MY Kuala Lumpur - Worth The Hype? 4K HDR

Published June 27, 2026

Damascus MY Kuala Lumpur is one of the most talked-about spots in Bukit Bintang for Syrian and Middle Eastern food, and in this video I check out whether the hype is really worth it. From shawarma and grilled meats to rice dishes and fresh juices, this place has built a big following in one of KL’s busiest food areas. Located in Bukit Bintang near the Wolo Hotel, Damascus operates daily from 8:00 AM until 4:30 AM, which helps explain why it has become such a popular stop for lunch, dinner, and late-night food in Kuala Lumpur. The restaurant describes itself as Syrian-inspired and highlights shawarma, chicken, lamb, seafood, and other grilled items at accessible prices. In this Kuala Lumpur food vlog, I try Damascus MY and give my honest thoughts on the taste, portion size, atmosphere, and overall value. Reviews frequently mention the beef shawarma, solid portions, quick service, and reasonable pricing, while some also note that lines can be long because the restaurant is so popular. If you’re looking for Arabic food, Middle Eastern food, or one of the most famous shawarma spots in Kuala Lumpur, Damascus MY is definitely one to know about. Its central location in Bukit Bintang also makes it an easy stop if you’re already exploring Jalan Bukit Bintang, shopping, or hunting for good eats in central KL.
