This charming restaurant features a beautiful garden and a rustic vibe, creating a wonderful atmosphere. The food was incredible; we enjoyed hummus, moutabal, chicken wings, zaatar chicken, tomato salad, and spicy halloumi. Everything was excellent, but my favorite was the spicy halloumi. Our waitress, Maria, forgot to bring our water but offered it on the house when reminded. Maria was very attentive and sweet, and we really appreciated her service. We were also given a complimentary dessert, a berry cheesecake, which was delicious with homegrown berries.

After dinner, we headed downstairs to the bar, which has a cool interior and a very cozy ambiance. I wish they had more variety in cocktails, though. We ordered a basil Orta and a whiskey sour; both were good.

A small comment: avoid ordering via the app, as the orders don't seem to go through. It's best to order directly with the waiter.

There is also a small shop at the entrance selling locally made kitchen accessories, art, handicrafts, candles, and more.

Overall, it was a great experience, and this place is perfect for a nice get-together with friends and family.

The waiters are very innocent and polite. However, despite making a reservation they made us wait 30 mins to be seated. Prices are ridiculously expensive. Food is alright. For me making uncessary additions/modifications to authentic dishes is not my thing. The ambience is nice but it was very hot . It was not enjoyable on a summer day lunch. We just wanted to leave as soon as we finished our food. I think the only reason this restaurant is popular among expats is that it offers alcohol. I would rate this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if the price was fair but considering the high price tag and the time we had to wait to get seated I am only giving ⭐️⭐️. I also did not like that when we left our clothes was covered with starch from the bread that we paid for.

I came to Jordan for a 5 days stay, and came to eat in this restaurant twice. The food was amazing, everything I tasted was delicious and healthy. Highly recommended it.
