In old district of Alweibdeh lies this unique place. It is close the cultural area in the district also it is not that far from the town down of Amman.

The atmosphere and decoration is different. I liked the coloured clay pots near the entrance. Chairs are of antique style. Food was very good and general. Staff members are so kind, friendly and professional.

Two negative points to share, the street outside is relatively narrow (valet is available though, one can park a little away from entrance as well).

Secondly, the smoking atmosphere is a bit upsetting. However, good ventilation is available and outdoor area is nice.

Prices are reasonably good (a bit overpriced).
