Fairytale place

5.00We had dinner in the inner courtyard of this restaurant located in an ancient palace. Rich vegetation with trees and flowers, a typically Arab garden. We enjoyed an appetizer of cheese mushrooms, herb chicken and lamb fillet served directly in a pan. Great freshly baked Arabic bread with sesame. The sore point is the Service. Took a bottle of Jordanian white wine (23 jod ) that was inadequately opened by a clumsy young waiter. The two most experienced senior waiters practically ignored us by tending to other tables. Great food, but to call this place one of the best Jordanian restaurants, it seems to me that the Service is not a small detail. Total expenditure 51 jod ,
Great restaurant!!

5.00Restaurant was excellent!! No complaints. Driver very courteous and professional. I would go back to this restaurant.
It's a good option if you go in a group. If you go on your own there is another dining room in the same restaurant

5.00We read the reviews of this restaurant, mha!! after so many days spent in Jordan we were a bit 'skeptical of finding a restaurant with so many nice reviews, also because we arrive in front of the restaurant and find a half-closed door, then, crossed the threshold we found, initially: a garden with tables set, plus several rooms, all with a well-kept garden, we entered the last room and to welcome us there was Aida, the owner, smiling and welcoming, made us sit down and left us in the hands of Rappei, the manager of the room, here after various appetizers, all tasty and presented to perfection, we embarked on the main courses of meat, and what can I say?? a tasty lamb, tender, well presented, so as to ask for an encore; all accompanied by an excellent wine. Good. Good. Good. Good. Courteous. Clean. Professional...... to go back!
The number one

5.00If we returned twice to this restaurant in the 4 days of stop in Madaba there must be a reason. In fact, this place is in my opinion the best in Madaba: refined, with a great table Service fast and professional, high quality dishes, good menu with description of the dishes and spices used, wine and beer list (something quite rare in Jordan), spotless bathroom. Nice outdoor courtyard where we had dinner, but also the indoor covered part was nicely decorated. Delicious the unscheduled with live music. Frequented especially by wealthy Jordanians: account in line with those of equal category. Highly recommended! In 4 at dinner (twice) we spent 77.80 jod taking: 1 Bottle of large mineral water, 1 bottle of red wine (22 jod!!), 1 soup, 1 hummus, 1 Muffarake mushrooms (beef liver with mushrooms), 1 Sajeah meat (a dish made of strips of meat cooked together with peppers and onions), 1 mansaf (traditional dish made of rice, meat, yogurt and almonds), 2 Chicken joudna. The service was counted at 5% and taxes at 8%.
Great! Good food in a nice restaurant...
