    Cheap and cheerful is the word for this restaurant. It serves filafel, hommous, fool, omelettes and salad and not all that much else.

    It is usually crowded by locals grabbing a quick bite before rushing off to do something, while the seats are all taken by men either reading the paper or playing backgammon!

    In other words it is full of local colour!

    If it is too noisy for you, there is a "family room" upstairs, where ladies can sit quietly. the service, I add, isn't all that marvellous up here, it is a good idea to leave your order at the counter downstaires before you climb up.

    If you just want a filafel sandwich, take it and eat it in the garden near the fountain on the other side of the road. There are lots of seats in the shade

    So many small restaurants!: Eating beside the sea (and getting your feet wet!

  • Restaurant Name: So many small restaurants!

    Alongside the public beach there is a whole series of small restaurants. They mostly serve local food but also the (local version of) hamburgers and so on.

    There are no special recommendations, they change owners and cooks fairly often.

    But it is great fun eating beside the sea - especially in the evening - and getting one's feet splashed by an occasional wave.

     You have great Jordan pages. I'm trying to figure out if I should put Aqaba as the first stop on an upcoming 5 day trip to Jordan. I'm thinking no, regretfully.

     Mmm, all looks a bit fishy to me.
