Very nice food! We asked for hummus but the owner kindly upgraded us to a sharing assorted mezze which included hummus, baba ganoush, beetroot hummus and salad topped with pomegranate molasses - they served this with a side of fresh bread and crunchy chips topped with thyme. We also ordered fresh juice, mixed grill and the grilled lamb chops which came with a special kind of bbq bread which had an olive oil taste to it - it was all so delicious. To finish off we were kindly offered some bedouin tea on the house. Food overall was very good, it definitely helped us to recover after being sick! It is more upmarket than everything else around so definitely something to keep in mind. Would recommend!

We went here twice during our stay in Wadi Musa. On our first visit, we were treated like guests of honour by the proprietor, who truly went the extra mile, and the food was outstanding as well, especially the beetroot appetizer and the vegetarian tomato dish. On our second visit two days later, it was a different story. The food was still very good, but service was just average, and the extras we were treated to on the first night were missing. So, a perfectly acceptable dining experience ended up being a bit of a disappointment. I can absolutely recommend a visit, as the food is great, but do go only once!

A delightful little restaurant! We stopped in for lunch on the recommendation of our taxi driver, and it did not disappoint. We shared a variety of starters, including hummus, baba ganoush, a flavorful beetroot dip, and a fresh salad. We also tried the vegetable parcels and a camel meat kebab, which were absolutely delicious. The dips were exceptionally tasty, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, even sharing stories about the Queen of Jordan’s visit to the restaurant. This hidden gem is definitely worth a visit!

Our hotel receptionist recommended this restaurant, and I’m so glad we went. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles from everyone. For starters, we had a plate of hummus served with Arabic bread and crisps – a fabulous dish! For the main course, we chose a delicious mixed grill. The perfect finishing touch to our meal was a complimentary cup of mint tea. We were thrilled to visit on our second day of exploring Petra during our three-day trip. I highly recommend this place and am sure we’ll be back!

Absolutely amazing experience here!! The customer service here is amazing and the food us absolutely delicious. Being part Jordanian the flavours of the food replicate my mothers cooking. Jeff is super attentive and friendly with the guests always ensuring all customers are satisfied. We have now been here twice since arriving in Petra and will continue to come back. Must try Fatoush salad it is an absolute delicacy here. Cheap prices high quality food amazing service.

Open during Ramadan! Strongly recommended. Price is ok but the food is really good. I ordered Mansaf, which is a traditional Jordanian food with lamb, and Beef /Lamb Sajih. I ordered Sajih two days in a roll but the first time was better. I think it’s because the manager of the restaurant were there first day. Hah I recommend all Asian people to try the Sajih. Definitely feels like green pepper beef stir fry! I like it a lot.
