The restaurant was very busy when we visited with both locals and foreigners and is situated in an typical old house. It has a temporary covered roof (that is maybe opened up in warmer weather) and tables are situated around a central courtyard with a fountain, lemon trees and vine trellises. The courtyard is beautifully tiled with wooden balconies and is very light and airy. Food is typically arabic and quite cheap. No alcohol is served. Open daily from 9am 'til late.

Favorite Dish: Shish Taouk.

Address: In a narrow alley, SE of Umayyad Mosque
Comparison: least expensive
Price: less than US$10
Rating: 4
Theme: Middle Eastern

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
