Eating Out in Oman

Eating Out in Oman

The Grand Hyatt's Tuscany Italian restaurant offers an unusual combination of excellent service, food and ambience; there's even a small Romeo and Juliet style balcony for dining.

Al Bustan's Al Marjan Restaurant is a French restaurant, where the food and ambience is outstanding. It’s possibly the only restaurant in Oman that insists on men wearing a tie.

For a taste of Oman try the Al Bustan's Seblat Al Bustan (on Wednesdays). The live Omani entertainment makes it a very memorable night out.

Restaurants, apart from in the major hotels, tend to offer a standard range of Indian sub-continent food.

Some recommendations include the Golden Oryx with its Mongolian and Chinese cuisine; the Mumtaz Mahal for excellent north Indian food and one of the best views in Oman.

The Pavo Real is Muscat's favourite Mexican themed diner and the do it yourself entertainment, on some nights, can help break down business barriers.

The Curry House offers simple Indian dining with superb food.

The Oasis' Shatti Al Qurm beach location adds to the enjoyment of the freshly prepared food.

If you need a snack, many of the small coffee shops will do a chicken or omelette sandwich in Lebanese bread. Some of them also offer freshly squeezed fruit juices.

Nightlife Centres Around The Hotels
The Bars in the Intercontinental and Radisson SAS are very popular but the best entertainment is usually in the Grand Hyatt’s ‘Safari’ club.

The music may not be the latest sounds from Europe, and the alcohol is expensive, but the crowds are usually good natured and fun.
