Bayt Sharq

Bayt Sharq serves home-style Qatari food in a restored Al Khulaifi family home around a century old, complete with its own small museum and a choice of dining room, veranda, garden, or private cabin. It holds a Michelin Guide Selected listing — notable, since this is a straightforwardly traditional local restaurant rather than a chef-driven concept — with dishes like mutabbel, majboos, and saffron mahalabia on the menu. Its early opening also makes it practical for a proper Qatari breakfast as well as dinner.
