"Beautiful restaurant hidden away in the heart of Petra. A variety of seating options, with a lovely rooftop overlooking the town.
The service was great - really friendly, with some fantastic suggestions for our meal. I’d highly recommend the Fanagesh, it was delicious.
I’d definitely recommend it to anyone in the area, amazing service with a smile, producing some of the finest Jordanian food you can hope to find!"

"A must visit place for all foodies from around the world. Traditional Jordanian cuisine at its best. Starting with lovely introduction to each course and finishing with pure harmony in the mouth with every bite.
The service was very friendly and caring throughout the whole time, making for an unforgetable evening in Wadi Musa."

"The best restaurant in Petra for sure. Magical ambiance. In a restored castle-type building, decorated by local artists and artisans, a peaceful, not overwhelming combo of contemporary style and very clean, spacious feeling with homages to antiquity. We were served personally by the chef! Plus, local wine and beer: the only and best alcohol I’ve had while here. More importantly, the food is exquisite. We came here because we ate at the JHR in Amman and it was incredible, and here they offered a couple dishes we couldn’t get there!"
