   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-26 This breakfast spot was incredible. The outdoor setting surrounded by trees made it feel peaceful and refreshing. The food was top-tier — the French toast was easily some of the best I’ve had. The service was outstanding. Wilma and Dimple took excellent care of us and made the experience even better. A 10/10 all around. Highly recommend.

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-05-05 This is my first visit to Doha and to this restaurant. I am happy to say that it is a truly gourmet experience at very good prices. The atmosphere, service and food were perfect. It is definitely worth another visit and tasting the other dishes. I RECOMMEND!!!

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-29 Naama’s garden is a magical and suggestive garden with cool lanterns and lights, making you feel cozy during your aperitif or dinner.It’s located next to Corniche, leaving you the option to have a nice stroll after your evening. Like for all places tried in Doha, service was attentive and caring. The menu is very much continental, offering options spacing from healthy salads (severals) to meat and fish. The dessert section is very original, featuring homemade pecan tart, strawberry tiramisu, and some local dessert. I took tortellini with shrimps and tomato basil sauce, while my friend opted for salmon broccoli and wild rice. Portions were generous and the taste of food was great. Fish was perfectly cooked, and the sauce of tortellini was really tasty. The price was also okay. The cherry on top were the mocktails, prepared with great care and attention to details. The lavender one had a nice citrus flavour, and the ginger lemon one was very balanced as well. I definitely recommend this place!

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-18 The first time I visited Public House, I had a great experience. The food was delicious, the ambiance was nice, and the service stood out—especially thanks to a very friendly Filipina or Nepali staff member who made us feel really welcome. However, my second visit was disappointing. The food tasted different, the vibe of the place had changed, and even the staff didn’t seem as attentive or professional. It felt like a totally different place. Sadly, it didn’t live up to the standard I was expecting after my first visit.

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-12-11 It's one of the best steaks in town! Good quality and super tasty. Yea, the staff was a bit lost, but it was fine. Also, the food took a long time (more than usual) to be served. 😮‍💨 Rather than that, the sauce, the mac n cheese, and onion rings, everything was perfect 🥩🍖 I definitely would love to come again for a burger or steak again 🤤✨️

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-12-25 Last night was such a good time! We had a reservation for the Christmas Eve dinner package & we really enjoyed the food & the place. We couldn’t even finish our desserts because we were so full! For starters we had, turkey croquette with cranberry chutney, sea food chowder & Brussels sprout with burrata salad. I loved how the ingredients of the salad were all complimenting each other in my mouth 😅 For the mains, we had roasted sea bream & Ny striploin. We’re not huge fans of eating sea food but the sea bream dish caught us off guard & to think that it was made by an american restaurant, it was really good! For the steak, it was okay. Cooked just how we like it. For the dessert- they served mini pecan tart & a yule log, it was okay. Nothing really special but we enjoyed it. ambiance of the place 10/10 Service 10/10- ms maria jose was attending to our table & she’s really prompt & helpful with all our needs. The mains were quite taking time (which was accpetable) but she made sure our table had all our needs. Food 8/10 Will definitely come back to try the ala carte menu!

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-10-30 This is a lovely place to go for food and drinks. The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. The food was cooked fresh and arrived lovely and hot. We had our meals all at the same time, which was very good. The waiter was very helpful, and he knew his stuff for a youngster. The prices were reasonable and not too expensive for the size of the portions. The biggest issue for us was that the restaurant was only a few meters away from the bar area, and in the bar area, smoking is aloud, and the smell soon drifted into the restaurant which was not enjoyable when you are eating your food. We went earlier in the evening, and when we arrived, the bar area was quiet, as we did not smell the smoke when we walked through it to get to the restaurant. If we had gone later, we would not have stayed just because of the smell of cigarette smoke. It was a big shame as otherwise it was very enjoyable.

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-12-31 First time dining at a Nobu buffet/brunch in Doha and it did not disappoint. Do not expect to pay less than 200 QR as that is around the starting price (was able to avail a friend’s discount as well). This is probably one of the best brunches I’ve been too. I ordered two different cocktails which were excellent! Sushi and seafood items were fresh. Variety of dessert and fruit also available in “buffet style” area. In the brunch package, you can choose a main and a dessert. Appetizers were brought to the table to share. The view and ambiance of the dining area was spectacular as you get views of the water and skyline as well. Random note - there was a nice view of the Pearl in the restrooms as well.

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-05-11 After landing at Hammad international airport for a 12 hr layover, we were tired from our 15 hr flight but eager to see the acclaimed site of the World Cup. So, we put our heads together and fathered a short trip to Nobu Doha, a fine Asian rooftop bar and restaurant at the end of an isthmus on the coast of the Persian Gulf. We were greeted by friendly doormen, and carried our bags to the reception where some nice ladies took our info and carryons. At the rooftop, we were greeted by yet another friendly host who showed us to our table overlooking the vast skyline of downtown Doha. It was a sight to behold. Every building different from the next and with a different color scheme and architecture reflecting off the calm desert sea. The amputated pyramid lit up in neon color arrangements really captured my sense of wonder. It felt like being in a Drake music video for several minutes, up until we saw the menu and realized we couldn’t have everything on it. We did in fact order a few items, such as some raw fish tacos, and a salad (turned out to be my favorite). We also ordered a type of Sake I could barely pronounce to cool off a little before the long wait at the airport. The music was nice, a blend of house and Arabian atmospheric music. The clientele seemed mostly locals eating inside and tourists like us on the rooftop. By the end of the night I found myself raving about the Boston tea party and its implications to today’s global economy and finally realized it was time to go.

He even suggested a couple of drinks based on what I liked, which was a nice touch. If you’re staying at Centro Doha and want to relax with a good drink, look for Chandana—he’ll take good care of you. Cheers!

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-12-20 The restaurant offers a great ambience, a live band in the evening, and good-quality food. I have been visiting this place regularly since it opened in the early 2010s, and they have done an excellent job of maintaining it over the years.

   ---

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-02-24 Was there for the Valentine's day dinner. The food was good, we are not much of a sea food fan, but we liked all the dishes served. The lobster and tuna dishes were the stand out. Salmon was a little dry but good and chicken dish was on ok. Desserts was good, but our stomach was full to really enjoy it properly. The service was great, greeting us and knowing our seat immediately when knowing our reservation. Ambience was also good with live singers in the background was a nice touch. Would definitely try again next time.

   ---

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-08-20 It was just an amazing place, even for people who don’t drink. Mai Tai was okay, we liked the pineapple more. The ribeye steak was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing even without the mushroom sauce, which was also delicious. The performers were very talented and made the experience more fun. The staff was very nice as well. Trader Vic's is a legendary Polynesian-themed restaurant and bar chain, famous for its exotic cocktails, particularly the Mai Tai. Founded in 1937, it pioneered the tiki bar concept, immersing guests in a tropical atmosphere with elaborate décor, potent rum-based drinks, and Pacific Rim cuisine. The experience includes carved wooden figures, bamboo furnishings, and a lively, immersive environment. Over the years, it has expanded globally, establishing itself as a cornerstone of escapism and a vibrant nightlife destination. Hilton Hotel, الدوحة، Qatar

The drinks and the food were really good, inviting vibe that perfectly complements the lively energy of the place and the breathtaking view of the Corniche from the 32nd floor. We were lucky to catch an incredible live band that played a fantastic mix of music. Tripod Acoustic, their talent truly added to the experience, making it a perfect night out. The sound was just right—not too loud, allowing us to enjoying the music.

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-26 Hands down the best Irish bar in Doha! James, our host, gave us an incredible experience from start to finish. The drinks were top-tier, and the staff was absolutely on point. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great atmosphere and even better service!

   ---

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-02-06 Nice little bar but don’t expect the ‘Irish’ here. Had a live band and didn’t even know the songs they were singing. Drinks are good but having Irish whiskey and lemonade and getting 7 up is awful. Sprite is better. Also the guiness needs a bit more attention when being poured

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-16 What a lovely Lady Night for 3drinks was just 49-QAR, good food as we ordered Shamrock sharing bite’s platter 79- and great service from Lovely, Arleen and atmosphere on 32nd floor with great view points, definitely hope to go back.

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-18 The fish and fries tastes good. Both are crispy and the sauces are nice. The beverage 'frozen apple pie' is hard to 'drink', cause there is too much ice and the ice chops are too big. Have to wait until the ice milt. Pretty loud noise and the table is too high for me. Overall is ok. Zone 61, Building, 31 Umm Arsaan St, Doha, Qatar

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2025-04-25 Don't judge a book by its cover... This reflects my first impression which was not correct. When I saw the dishes I felt that they were missing some types of eggs, but I was surprised when I sat at the table that the egg menu on the table was above expectations and covered all types of eggs that come to mind.. Coffee is available in all its types and juices... The team is unable to describe the amount of their kindness and excellent service. I especially thank the entire crew Yunes, Teresa, Ellen, Rizza, Aldana, Namita and Pubunl

I loved the ambiance, which was enhanced by soft music and tasteful décor. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that our needs were met promptly. They made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout our visit. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. I can't wait to return! 🤩

   ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-06-19 We visited on seafood night. The idea is that they give you a menu and whatever on it is served to the whole table, but you get to choose the drinks. The mocktails were very good. The place is cozy and easy to reach with valet parking too. The service was generally amazing, although only few staff members were there. We made a reservation beforehand. Coming to the food, everything we tried had a simple but great mix of flavors, they also accommodated our special request to have some of the cold appetizers with cooked fish as some of our party didn't eat raw fish. The whole table agreed that the shrimp on crispy rice was the best dish. The crispy fish tacos were amazing too, although very simple but very delicious. Note for muslims: the place serves alcohol

The hookah was okay-ish however, sliders, nachos, tawook and Alfredo pasta were awesome. Although, a little tweak would do great for the food in terms of taste. All in all awesome ambience and had a great time.

    ☆☆☆☆☆ ★★★★★ 2024-01-03 Please note, as it is within a hotel, ID is required at the desk before entering. You can arrive at The Red Lion by using the lift and pressing M floor. Children can't enter. It has an English pub vibe. People sitting, drinking, watching sport. Steve was very accommodating and put on the Leeds games for us over the Christmas break. The drink prices were great for Qatar. They had crazy hour until 7 (25QR) and happy hour (35QR) until 8. Normal price afterwards, but ask about the 2 hours unlimited sips deals that may be on. They served food, which I didn't try yet. People were smoking as is the case in all bars here in Qatar, but it's a big place so it wasn't overbearing.
