Cantaloupe Gastro Pub — Restaurant in Amman

The main attraction of cantaloupe is the view from the restaurant terrace. It is fantastic. We booked for 6 o'clock to get the sunset and we weren't disappointed, absolutely beautiful and lots of photos taken by us and by the staff who were more than helpful. Also a happy hour in place till 8. We arrived and the place was totally empty it seems it is geared for later despite the happy hour. We ordered drinks and they came but we then waited for menus for quite a while . When they came we waited quite some time before we ordered and got more drinks . Some of us has ordered beer and noticed the half pint was in fact exactly the same amount as a pint ( we poured one into the other to see) the waiter saw and asked what we were up to and we explained, he went to enquire and came back to tell us they had received new glasses and they didn't realize the fact . He said he would charge only half pint/price , he did for further orders but left the previous drinks at full price. Food took a long time to come and was adequate except for beef sliders that were obviously off and smelled very high . How the kitchen sent them out is beyond us, they were truly bad. Pub food at a high price because of the view . My advice eat before you sit on the terrace and order half...

Just a short walk down from the crowds up the hill on Rainbow is this gem. I stay in the area regularly, and walked by it many times before stopping in. Ironically, it was a tourist who recommended it. As others have said, Cantaloupe definitely has one of the finest outdoor decks in the city that offers outstanding views. But this place is no one-trick pony. They have a fully stocked bar with experienced bartenders who know how to prepare specialty cocktails. A great place to sit, relax, and enjoy the sunset with a drink. But stick around for at least some appetizers. Cantaloupe has an eclectic menu of delicious and unusual appetizers, along with some familiar and not so familiar entrees. The portions are generous, and are beautifully presented. The service is excellent, and prices are reasonable. The manager, Ibrahim, (I think?) treats everyone like guests in his home, and my regular waiter, (yes, I went several times) Abdullah was prompt, friendly and efficient...always. Cantaloupe offers not only a great, friendly place to relax and enjoy the views, but is an excellent dining...

If i was to make a list of my favorite places in amman, cantaloupe would be on top of the list. BEST FOOD EVER!!!! best is an underestimation saraha. Yummiest cleanest most creative food you would ever taste in amman. Their alcohol cocktails are awesome as well. Honestly everything about this place is fire; the vibe the staff absolutely professional and warm and i cannot begin to tell you about the view! Just look at my pictures and you’ll see yourself. Perfect for date night, great for friends gathering. There is an indoor seating as well There are two floors, I recommend the first if you’re there for the food and the second if youre only there for drinks and the view. Reservation is preferable most of the time and ofcourse do not miss the golden hours!...
