Awesome food, quick and good service. Loved the dinner here. The restaurant was busy, it has both indoor & outdoor sitting. We had King fish, Grouper, eggplant and all dishes were delicious. We asked for less spice and it was just perfect, both fishes were grilled the right way, not burnt. They have plenty of options in the menu. Waiter spoke good English and was very helpful. I would love to come back & definitely recommend this restaurant for a delicious meal.

We came to have dinner and found this the best seafood restaurant we have ever been to in many years in the GCCs. The food was so fresh, special smoky grill flavor was said due to that they used their own wood to make charcoal. Serving time is fast and the price is amazingly cheap compared to what we often pay in the UAE. Make sure to come to the correct Turkish house in the street. We saw 3 Turkish house restaurants on this street. However, the right restaurant is the one that you always need to queue to be seated. It is the smallest one with a blue sign in a small alley. We, in fact, returned to have lunch again the next day because their food was so good. Their most special foods are sesame bread and grilled calamari. Not mentioned delicious grilled lamb chops and salmon.

Drove from Dubai to Muscat and this was the first stop as the reviews on TripAdvisor peaked my curiosity. It did not disappoint. We received a nice warm welcome and had a great and friendly waiter, Kouiki (I probably spelled it wrong, sorry). He was very attentive, engaged in conversation and made the experience that more pleasurable so thank you.The food tasted great. We shared the starters and I had the camel biriyani as my main. Would def stop back to try more from the extensive menu.Great location as well as it is right down from the beach.

This restaurant was kind of confusing as 3 different outlets had the same name. However, all of them turned out to be the same restaurant. It was packed when I went there for dinner, and was a bit noisy. However, it seemed to be filled with tourists. I find the food to be good and tries its best to be Turkish.I would recommend this place to Turkish food lovers.

Dine along our 370 metre private beach where the creative seafood menu gets accompanied by a sublime Gulf of Oman panorama and paired with an equally impressive wine selection. Soak up the sea breeze and salt air on the expansive waterfront patio or gaze

The setting could not be more perfect and is stunning. The food was very disappointing especially as I ordered a simple choice of grilled tiger prawns. Sadly they were overcooked. Service was good but not exceptional. Very expensive for what it is and whilst the setting comes at a premium I find it hard to reconcile the cost compared to similar restaurants around the world. Better and half the price.

LOVELY PLACE WITH AN AMAZING LOCATION. We found twins on trip advisor and decided to give it a try. The owner and the superviser rasel welcomed us right infront of the garden and guided us to our table. They had fresh fishes and shrimps with calamari. The supervisor rasel advised us to pick our fish but we didnt know what to eat. So we let him choose the fish for us. The strange thing is after we have ordered a big fish , fried calamari and lamb chops, the supervisor advised us to not order the lamb chops coz he said our portion is too big for 3 person. We insisted to habe the lamb chops and he agreed with a smile. They brought the mezes and again we ordered more than 5 mezes and he again told us that it will to to much and he is afraid we cant finish them all. We said dont worryWe should have listened him the mezes were delicious as well as the fish and lamb chops with calamari. But the food was really to much we called him to our table and confessed our mistake that we should have listened him. He smiled at us and told us if you want i will not charge you the lamb chops because you cant eat them all. We were all shocked. It is not often to see staff caring about your happiness more than the money they will charge you. We didnt accept his kind offer and forced ourselves to finish them all. And we did it. We called him again to ask to meet with the manager and he showed us the owner. We thanked the owner mr. Murad for training a nice gentlemen like rasel. He told us that he always advises his staff to not do over sale to anyone and warn the guests if they order too much. By the way, all the foods were amazing and the location was perfect. We personally appreciate their kind behaviour. This was a real experience for us.

We popped into this restaurant during our visit to the National Museum, it's part of the same complex. They offered a good selection of Omani dishes, and the prices were reasonable. We really enjoyed the Shuwa. The waiters couldn't do enough to make sure we had everything we needed, service was prompt, attentive, friendly and efficient.
