About Chef Ali

I’d love to introduce you to Chef Ali, a cozy Syrian restaurant tucked away at 7 Rue de la Division Leclerc in the heart of Strasbourg, France. From the moment you approach its welcoming facade, there’s a sense that this is a place where great food meets laid‑back vibes. Whether you’re a local or a visitor exploring the city, Chef Ali feels like the kind of spot you stumble upon and want to return to again and again. It’s not pretentious or overly formal - it’s warm, inviting, and genuinely focused on serving flavors that stick with you.

The atmosphere at Chef Ali feels relaxed and friendly, giving off that genuine neighborhood energy that makes you feel comfortable right away. Many people stop by for a quick coffee, especially if they’re wandering around the nearby streets, but stay much longer once they see the menu. The restaurant serves a range of quick bites and small plates that feel familiar yet exciting, with Syrian influences that add depth and character to every dish. From savory treats to lighter snacks, there’s something for every appetite and mood. What’s great is that these offerings don’t overwhelm you - they invite you to savor the moment, enjoy the spices, and appreciate the thoughtful preparation behind each plate.

Seating options at Chef Ali are flexible to match the way you want to experience your meal. On sunny days, outdoor seating lets you soak up the street buzz while enjoying your food and coffee. If you’re in a rush or prefer eating elsewhere, takeout and delivery services are available to make things easier. And of course, if you want the full sit‑down experience, dine‑in with attentive service creates a relaxed rhythm that lets you enjoy your meal without feeling rushed.

Walking in feels like being welcomed by a friend who cares about good food and good company. The mix of casual dining, varied service options, and well‑crafted small plates makes Chef Ali a memorable stop in Strasbourg’s vibrant food scene.

Come here often- food tastes great, portions are always big and hugely satisfying. Shawarma assiette is usually our go to, but highly recommend the mixed grill most of all. The crispy sandwich is incredible and probably the best crispiest fried chicken I have had yet in the city. The kebbeh here is good as well.

My brothers baby boy 4 was hungry and they were closing for the day but they still made a meal for him and allowed him to warm up and use the facilities. It was very nice, hospitable and kind of them. I tasted the food as well it was amazing halal food.

Never have I ever had such delicious shawarma. There was not a single inch of dryness on the chicken, and the hummus and garlic sauce were phenomenal. This is no ordinary shawarma restaurant. With its 7€ chicken shawarma wrap, you have one of the greatest deals known to mankind, found here in Strasbourg.

We had our lunch yesterday at this restaurant. The food was very delicious, the service was excellent, and the prices were very reasonable. I haven't tasted such food in a long time.

You should try the Shawarma Arabië here! The service is excellent, and I really enjoyed the food. It's prepared in an authentic Syrian style that's hard to find elsewhere. The outdoor seating is also very relaxing. And they play good songs too inside
