If you’re fortunate enough to have experienced a meal in the Middle East, you know all about their warmth, ambiance and extravagance. Whether it’s on a terrace accompanied by an afternoon tea, or sipping Arak in the evening, the “joie de vivre” can’t be missed.

Having successfully recreated the magic, our chef Joe Awad and his team have put together a menu featuring traditional flavours reimagined with a modern flare.

Our friendly and attentive staff will make you feel as though you’ve walked through the fabric of time to the other side of the world. Prepare your tastebuds, they’re in for an amazing experience!

What a spectacular dining experience we had! Such a great menu & very welcoming staff. We went for brunch with 2 young kids & everything on the menu was so tempting..made it hard to decide. The pancakes are out of this world & an absolute must! Cocktails are delish...& they have bottomless mimosas!!! (Something I'll indulge in when I'm not with the little ones lol). Highly recommend & look forward to going back soon.

Amazing food with a great variety. The service is impeccable & the ambiance is fun & happening, yet enjoyable (not clubby). Oh... & the drinks are to die for!

Everything was amazing, the food & the atmosphere was great. My main course was late & only arrived after the others were done theirs, but they did give me a free dessert. The brussel sprouts & beef dumplings are the most mouth watering dishes, full of flavour.

Service & food were great. Only disappointments was the Fattouche salad - small, expensive & not great. Also, the chocolate mousse was bitter & liquidy - not pleasing at all. Otherwise we tried many dishes & they were delicious. Service was friendly & attentive.
