Restaurant Name: Diafa Fish Restaurant
Diafa Fish Restaurant is one of the nicest restaurants in Libya. The food, which is predominantly seafood, is excellent and the service is very good too and will come as a pleasant surprise if you have been used to the standard of service in the Funduq al-Kebir's restaurant. The restaurant is also nicely decorated, which makes it a nice place to spend an evening.
This restaurant is probably the most popular one on Tripoli for groups of foreign tourists and so it is usually fully booked. It is, therefore, advisable, to make a reservation. It is also expensive by local standards. You need to be aware that the price given for each fish is per 100gm, even though this is not stated on the menu. The stuffed squid is excellent and reasonably priced. Squid is the cheapest seafood everywhere on the Libyan coast.
The Diafa Fish Restaurant is less than a kilometre from Tripoli's fishing harbour, so the fish is always fresh here.
I would say that if you are looking for somewhere to go out in the evening in Tripoli, then this is a good choice.

Al Ghazala Restaurant: pasta and seafood

Restaurant Name: Al Ghazala Restaurant
Al Ghazala Restaurant is a an upmarket city centre restaurant that specializes in pasta and seafood. I ate the mixed grilled seafood, which was fish, shrimps, prawns, squid rings, rice and french fries, with a candle in an onion! It was OK, but the fish was not fresh that day, maybe because it was a Friday. There is live music here some nights but, again, not on a Friday. Expect to pay about 25 LD per person. The food is well-presented and the service is OK, but they seemed reluctant to bring me my bill so, in the end, I went to the cash desk and paid it. Incidentally, this is one of the few restaurants in Libya where credit cards are accepted.
Ghazala means gazelle, but that's not on the menu.

Restaurant Name: Tripolis Restaurant
The Tripolis Restaurant is one of the finest in Tripoli. It has a beautiful location on the first floor of a restored Medina house, a good view of Tripoli harbour, top class service and excellent food. The spicy fish soup is delicious. My favourite dish, however, was the salt-baked fish. This is a whole fish, baked in a crust of salt. When the crust is broken open, the fish inside is succulent and, surprisingly, not in the least bit salty.

Hi Found your comments on the 4 Seasons v helpful! I stayed in Tripoli a few times with friends (also in a hotel - can't remember the name but pretty dire) and now need somewhere not horribly expensive (or just horrible). 4 seasons sounds perfect. Janet | Basaic Tue Feb 12, 2008 21:08 UTC
