We booked a table for 10 last Friday and the restaurant was entirely empty, which I thought would be a fortunate sign since I assumed we will get attentive service at last in Jeddah.
Let me start by saying that the decor and ambiance of the restaurant is very grand and elegant- I don’t think it could get any fancier than that even cutlery is so posh.
Now back to the food- the table was filled with ‘mezza’ plates immediately which we’re basics of humous , baba ganoush, salads, vine leaves. The down point at that stage was the very late serving of drinks and bread! You would expect them to be the first things to be served
We had to ask for water and bread twice before getting them.
The grilled sea food platter and mixed meat were ok however the serving portions were tiny reminded me of some French restaurant portions not Lebanese!
Overall I enjoyed experience but whether I will fork out money there again, I highly doubt it
