This is one of THE places to go in Riyadh for authentic Saudi cuisine. Their three branches have all been reconstructed to resemble a Najd village setting that is both welcoming and oozing in local charm. Take a seat on the floor under the covered terrace for a traditional experience. If you're two or three, opt for the sharing menu that highlights an extensive selection of satisfyingly generous and authentic flavours of the region.

Sushi and makis are offered here, alongside their tasty beef takikomi gohan and salmon filo. Pair your meal with some of their creative mocktails and you’ll have a great experience and one that’s good value. We recommend heading there at night for the low lights and thumping tunes.
