Restaurant Rumi offers you a culinary experience of the Silk Road that once crossed Central Asia and the Middle East. A route that linked cities, oases and markets... great traditions, formidable kingdoms.
The Silk Road was also the route of spices, generous in fragrance and flavor. We invite you to be inspired by the spirit of the travelers, merchants and pilgrims who, for centuries, exchanged goods, riches and important cultural elements. A spirit of discovery and openness. We aim to create a hospitable atmosphere conducive to meaningful encounters. A setting in which to take the time to restore oneself in the sense of regaining strength and meaning.
As far as possible, our cuisine favors local, organic and sustainable agriculture. All the meat we serve is halal.
The dining experience at Rumi blends warm ambiance, generous portions, and a rich mosaic of Middle Eastern flavors that many reviewers describe as authentic and inviting. Dishes like mezze and mains are praised for their depth, with several notes on fresh ingredients, thoughtful seasoning, and creative twists that still honor tradition. Service is repeatedly described as attentive and friendly, with a welcoming atmosphere and occasional live music that enhances the mood. The terrace, decor, and overall value receive frequent compliments, making it a favorite for family gatherings, celebrations, and casual dinners alike.
Wha an amazing discovery! This place is a little hidden gem, full of good juju & amazing flavours! Lamb kafta, mixed rice & djaj meshwy were incredible. The meat
literally melted in the mouth & the rice was cooked to perfection & paired amazingly with almonds & raisins. Mint tea was authentic & beautifully served. Cannot recommend this place enough!
Went here for brunch with family & friends & everything was incredible. Very friendly & prompt service even though we were a large group. We ordered a lot of plates to share & they were all delicious. Will be coming back soon.

Les plats sont savoureux, goûteux, appetissants. Le personnel est accueillant & offre un excellent service.
Très bon rapport qualité prix. C'est une belle occasion de déguster des plats uniques dans un décor du moyen Orient, charmant & chaleureux.
La récession & la pluie nous ont laissées presque seules au resto ce midi là. Tant mieux, le serveur nous a gâtées: sympathique, attentionné & discret, & assez grand pour nous ébahir en versant le thé maroccain à 1 mètre de hauteur! La nourriture (soupe dahl, moussaka végé, pouding afgan), toujours délicieuse & joliment décorée.
On y revient toujours avec plaisir.
D'inspiration libanaise mais une diversité de plats où chacun a la saveur unique du pays dont il est inspiré !
La pastilla marocaine est un délice, comme le reste …
Belle découverte.
J'y suis allé un samedi soir de février. Il y faisait froid. Le lieu est joliment décoré. La nourriture est bonne mais hors de.prix (16 $ + taxes pour deux tranches d'halloumi...). Service correct.
We love this place, it's on our'short list' food is great, they're accommodating for family including our 3yo, & the ambience is unbeatable. Highly recommend! Get the cardamom tea to share, you won't be sorry!
Rumi est un des rares restaurants à nous offrir la même qualité d'expérience, tant au niveau culinaire que sociale. La cuisine est toujours aussi exquise & généreuse, l'ambiance & le service chaleureux , & les prix très raisonnables C'est un endroit ou je me sens accueillie & toujours bien:)
C'est un exploit compte tenu de la réalité que vivent nos restaurateurs indépendants. Encourageons-les car il n'en reste plus beaucoup....
