A friend and I absolutely loved our experience here! The food was incredibly delicious and full of flavor — truly a treat. Our server, Mohamed, was exceptionally kind and welcoming. He recommended amazing dishes and made us feel right at home with his warm and attentive service. This was our second time visiting, and Mohamed’s hospitality continues to impress. We’ll definitely be back again soon! Best food I had in Doha. Loved the mixed appetizers, full of taste and really well made. The traditional Kuwaitian dishes were also delicious, good recommendations and excellent service from Ali. Thank you for the great experience! Will surely recommend this restaurant. There are lots of great restaurants around Souq Waqif, but this one is a gem! The menu is Middle Eastern with a Kuwaiti focus. The server was friendly and readily made recommendations to me. I went with a lamb and rice dish with potatoes and eggplant. It was fantastic … and enjoyed with a classic lemon and mint drink. Fast service. Great food. Check it out!

The theme of the restaurant is Arabic culture. The atmosphere is peaceful and authentic. I ordered their grilled chicken kebab with fries, and it did not disappoint. The flavors were rich and the meat was tender, served with fresh, warm bread on the side. The presentation was simple but very satisfying, and the portion was quite generous. It’s a great spot if you’re looking to enjoy Arabic cuisine. Highly recommended for both tourists and locals.

This restaurant is located conveniently along the touristy stretch of Souk-Waqif shopping street. Service is quite fast and staff are able to understand simple English to make food suggestions. Environment is quite clean and spacious. The sharing platters are good for small grouo sizes. A platter for 4 is enough to feed 6 average adult eaters, if you have one more side dish. Fairly well grilled fish and chicken, with flavourful rice similar to briyani. However, the chicken was a bit dry. The Hamsa shrimps are good and complement the tasty Arabic bread.
