Dukanah Cafe — Restaurant in Muscat

I will share my experience there Lets start with positive points the food are delicious 😋 the prices are in average staff uniform are really amazing restaurant decor is great

But what is the negative points from my opinion,

When you enter the restaurant the first thing you expected is a welcomed and smiling faces, but I didn’t find that here.

The second thing you expect is comfortable tables and chairs but also i didn’t find that here. ( there is a very very few comfortable chairs)

Th third thing I didn’t like is when I enter the restaurant and asked for a table, they said you can sit anywhere sir and then after a few minutes from sitting they come to me saying sorry sir you sit in family area

(they didn’t mention that they have family area specially when they didn’t put a sign for it )

The fourth thing is the most important thing the service : when you enter a place and you feel like you’re not welcome because they didn’t saying anything and didn’t smile so you know the service rate.

I give this review because I like the restaurant and i hope they work on this point to improve customer service and comfortable of...

first of all the food is GREAT. My wife and I had the breakfast dish (?? breakfast?? it was dinner time but we were told it's OK for dinner too: and IT WAS very good indeed) and Dukanah dish (takes 20minutes but while waiting one can keep the jaws busy munching other stuff) plus another couple of smaller dishes. Though there was food enough for 4 people (portions are generous) we ate all of it. Yummie! To drink we had lime&mint and a juice of dry lemon (another first for me). Both were excellent. All the staff was friendly (actually really SUPER friendly and fun) and polite. Don't be mislead by the location. Though really REALLY off the beaten path (we were the only non-Omani patrons as it basically serves the community living in the area ) the restaurant has lot of character, is very nicely designed (I loved the ceiling of palm trunks with the bark in sight) and if not too hot is possible to eat on the deck outside Last but not least: save just a little bit of meat (you'll get plenty of anyway) for the two little cats living just on the fringes of restaurant's deck. We did, and got back plenty of...

Dukanah Cafe is a true gem for anyone seeking an authentic Omani dining experience. The place is stunning, adorned with beautiful old Omani decorations that transport you back in time. The staff are the heart and soul of the cafe, providing exceptional service that goes beyond just taking orders. They genuinely care about your experience and serve with warmth and passion. The Omani cuisine at Dukanah Cafe is a culinary masterpiece. The flavors are rich, the ingredients are fresh, and the dishes are prepared with meticulous attention to detail. From breakfast to dinner, every meal is a celebration of traditional Omani flavors. I've had the pleasure of dining here multiple times, and each visit has left me wanting more. The combination of beautiful ambiance, exceptional service, and delicious food makes it an unforgettable experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Dukanah Cafe to anyone seeking a taste of true Omani hospitality...
