We visited Zahle restaurant during our stay at the Gulf Hotel. We both love middle eastern food so were looking forward to it very much. There is a very varied menu and we were asked if we wished to stay for the entertainment later (singers and belly dancer) and if we did we could choose from the set menus. We decided to stay and chose the second of three set menus. A word of warning, the food just keeps coming and coming...... There was easily enough to feed four and we were very disappointed we couldn't finish it all. Having said that, the food was lovely. Very tasty and fresh. The singing and dancing later on was just a novelty, a bit of fun which made it a bit different to a normal restaurant. Worth a try but if you want one of the set menus, you better have your appetite with you!!

Since 1920, it has been very well known for its Mango Ice Cream. Many people still ask for the Mango Ice Cream, but also love our other flavors. We also give you the unique experience of trying the real traditional Bahraini Cuisine.

I tried their breakfast at the Souk. Amazing selection and service. If you love Cinnamon, you would definitely love the dishes whipped up. Make sure you try their mango ice cream - refreshing and creamy bursting with flavour. The founder was the first to introduce mango ice cream to the country.

5. Areesh Restaurant

Reviewed By Yatrika09
Went to areesh after reading some good reviews. Staff was welcoming and nice. We ordered some basics like kibbeh, shish tawook, hummus etc etc along with some ice tea(orange and peach).Unfortunately the food flavour was not justified when it came to the bill.For instance there was nothing different in the so called orange and peach/lime ice tea. One couldnât really figure out the orange in it ! The bread was fresh and soft. But apart from that nothing exceptional.So if I were to rate it against value for money - then extremely disappointing.Similar or (even better) food is available at much lower costs. Ofcourse the amwaj lagoon atmosphere adds to it but nothing exceptional.Not sure if I would I be visiting it again.
