Doha Restaurant Tips by bpwillet Top 5 Page for this destination

Bandar: Great views, Great fresh seafood

This chain of restaurants USED to be right on the Doha bay at the end of the Doha Harbour. Their fresh selection of local seafood is wonderful and their chef's prepare traditional Middle Eastern style dishes as well as French. It is well worth it. Now this local chain has moved to the "new" souq area just behind the old fort. To end your time off you can smoke a sheesha and relax with an Arabian coffee or mint tea.

Favorite Dish: Any of the dishes that I had here were exceptional. THey seem to mix Asian with Middle Eastern flavors for a unique taste to all their dishes. If you do not enjoy seafood there are other dishes you may choose from and an array of mixed starters or desserts.

Fakhr al-Din: Mixed starters is the way to go!

The staff is so wonderful here. It is a chain restaurant that is located in a few places around Doha. So worth the visit. The food is fantastic and they can accomodate large groups. Some of their menu items are available in large sizes for that purpose.

Favorite Dish: Definitely try the mixed starters and mixed sampler. It is so worth it and will give you a taste of a lot of different traditional Middle Eastern dishes as well as some Qatari local dishes.
