A bit of a search as it was not clear by the signs on the door that this is Al Mandi restaurant. We read about it and it succeeds all expectations. it is a budget and local place so don't expect luxury... just expect the best rice and chicken with great service!

Abbey Road Restaurant in Madaba is an old house from the late 1800s thatâs been renovated but has retained its original charm & has an outdoor terrace & pizza oven. Our menu has traditional Arabic BBQ & appetizers but also modern takes on some traditional
Quite hidden, opposite the John the Baptist Church, slightly down the hill. Pizza was really very good and they also serve their local beer - Carakale, from the tap. They also have some other food, beside pizza.

Our guide brought us here and we were clearly expected: after a splendid assortment of meze there was a theatrical flourish as an enormous pot was upended onto a serving dish. The contents were a superb chicken and rice concoction beautifully seasoned with cinnamon and much else, very moreish and several of us had 'seconds'. This was home cooking at its best. I got the impression that this was the dish of the day, but there may have been other menu items on offer. It's an attractive, homely place and our hostess Ferial was charming and friendly. Well worth a visit.

Had the Jordanian pizza for lunch today and it was awesome. Olive and Zatar are a great combination. Great price too!

We were recommended this restaurant by our hotel and were initially a little hesitant as thought it was only kebabs. How wrong we were. They have delicious Mezze and cold local beers. We had baba ganoush, hommous with lamb, cheese pastries, bread and 4 local beers (3.50 each) and it came to 25 jod. Three appetisers was more than enough for two for a meal and would be about 12 jod. The owner was super nice and friendly. We enjoyed it so much we came back the same day to have more - the chicken was so tasty and tender!

We have been to the placeafter reading the positive comments on Tripadvisor, and we were really pleased with the warm welcome, the service and most important, the food. Starters and main dish were really tasteful, and indeed, prices are very reasonnable. We definitely recommend this place and hope it will climb to the top position in Madaba.

The cafe is in a great location just across the road from st george church. The setting and atmosphere were nice, staff were nice and the drinks were really tasty! But, unfortunately, the food was horrible. It's the worst food we had in Jordan and 2 out of 3 of us felt unwell following the meal. I'd recommend it for a drink in a convenient spot, but do not eat here.

I love going to this restaurant because you're eating outdoors without realizing it. It's a beautifully curated courtyard. The staff is helpful and friendly and the food is amazing. One of the best restaurants in Madaba.

We had 2 appetizers: the halloumi and the local sausages. The halloumi was served in a sizzling iron pan topped with chopped tomatoes and olives. It was delicious and a well balanced appetizer with the rubbery squeeginess of the salty halloumi mixing well with the sweetness of the tomatoes. The local sausages were wolfed down by my children in seconds! The sausages were deliciously peppery contrasted with the tangy lemon garlic sauce. For mains we had the meat saljiah which was sublime! Tender spiced minced lamb cooked in this delectable tomato-onion gravy. The burst of flavor in the mouth had us fighting to get the last bite. Last but not least was the maftool pottery which was a stew of cous cous, chicken, onions and chickpeas. Absolute comfort food and reminded me of home cooking. We truly recommend this place although it is pricey.
