It is one of the best restaurants in Fanja and BidBid. It offers a very good variety of food,such as: grills, barbecue, pies, Turkish shawarma, rice and chicken, rice and beef, rice and fish . They utilized fresh food in their meals and their meals contain less oil. Its location is very strategic. It’s at the entrance of Fanja town . It’s just before the first roundabout. It’s near the Sultan Qaboos Mosque. It’s easy to get back to the main road if you are heading to the interior of Oman and/or the other Governorates. Enjoy your time.
The food here is hot, fresh and flavorful every time we stop. We’ve tried take-away and dine in, both have been fantastic.
Excellent food & super friendly staff !!!
Delicious. Yemen style. Mendi.
Tried their Mutton Shuwa (شواء لحم) with Mandi Rice . The best Mutton Shuwa!!!!!Mutton was tender and juicy. The spices added in the mutton flavour were really amazing. When the rice was mixed with stock water of Mutton shuwa, the taste was again totally different. Even tried their Chicken Al Faham. The spices which had a blend of their special spice mix and a bit of pepper gave a different flavour. Worth trying!!!!
One of my favorite place to eat. Great fish and reasonably priced
Best place to have Authentic Omani Shuwa. Ideally located in Fanja with ample seating space and parking.
The BEST shuwa lamb in town. The meat is super tender and has no smell. Spiced perfectly. I have gotten party platters from there as well.
