    A wonderful place with awesome view of Doha city center and Pearl Island. There are also small houses along he pier. These small houses can be rented by the restaurant. The whole construction gives a feeling of luxury and wealth but also style and art. The form and color and the inviting contrast act as a kind of imagination tickling. The restaurant and likewise the small houses are built on stilts a few meters above the water's surface. Each house has access to own pier. Beautiful! Unfortunately, it was closed due to Ramadan.

    A scenic experience! Right at the tip of the pier surrounded by endless views of the ocean & Qatars landmarks like the Doha skyline, Katara & the Pearl. The sealings are very high and create beautiful open spaces & yet an intimate atmosphere. The art & decor inside is stunning, but you absolutely have to try the outside seating. (Peak into the water to see the big fish that are in the water) The staff are friendly, but they were a little slow with a bigger group. The food is delicious & beautifully plated. The parking is very limited, but they do have valet parking, which was a lifesaver.

    Considering the number of staff and the fact we were almost only guests in the restaurant i don’t understand why the service and food coming out of kitchen was so slow!? One meal and a couple of drinks were completely forgotten. When we got our meals i have to say it was great but for breakfast it took too long and food was not served at once. Atmosphere was very good however it was too cold inside. Just because of the food and location we will give another chance but please train your staff properly to improve the service!

    Cozy ambience! Felt like i am dining on a boat in water. The surrounding was calm and serene. The signature lamb dish was epic and so light on the stomach. Was definitely worth a try! Best place for a romantic date and a little getaway from the city’s hustle and bustle.

    Food and service aside, the ambiance and views of this place make it a worthwhile visit. It's so beautiful! With that being said, our servers were so nice and the food was presented beautifully and tasted delicious. Service was a little slow but nothing that would keep me from returning.

    Overall experience was amazing . The location is beautiful , the view of sea and sunset from those arched window veranda Is beautiful. We ordered from cold ,hot Mezze , kids meal , special drinks and mains and everything was just perfect . 4 stars is for service , although the restaurant wasn’t very busy but it took them forever to light up lanterns and we had our food while feeling cold . The parking service is amazing , valet for only 15qr.

    The Marsa Katara restaurant is located at the very end of Katara, one of the most beautiful locations in Qatar, and the view from the restaurant is spectacular, especially at sunset. You have to pay if you want to spend quality time with a pleasant atmosphere, even though the food prices are high. Only mobile phone cameras, not professional ones, are permitted inside the restaurant.

    We had an amazingly pleasant experience for our Friday breakfast. Hafiz was our waiter and he did everything to ensure that our experience was perfect. His smile and professionalism was the hospitality you expect in a nice restaurant like this. The view of the sea while enjoying your morning coffee is gives you a full sea port experience

    I highly recommend booking the private bungalows! I had a great time and the service staff were amazing and always ready to help. Special thanks to Mr. Willam, Reena and Lucy for the outstanding and fast service 👍🏼👍🏼

    Simply fall in love with this place. It is adorned with natural blue beauty. Fishes are roaming around the entrance which will surprise you. We had dinner over here. The food is delicious. I also want to warn about juice. If you don't like the natural mixture, don't take it. The staff are very gentle and amicable. Nice support.

    Nice location and beautiful views. The setting gives a comforting sense of tradition. The food has no identity though. Don’t get me wrong, it is good food overall. But the menu has all kinds of unexplained fusions. One remains puzzled as to what to expect. I would not go back. A culinary experience for me is a deep connection, especially in fusion cuisine where the stories behind the dishes enrich the flavor in the mind.

    One of the most serene beautiful places to do break or lunch or dinner with amazing views.

    Very disappointing visit. Booked afternoon tea. Looking forward to the homemade scones. We ordered extra. Lots of hesitation from waiting staff to adjust the set menu to accommodate children's taste. Scones were served cold with watery whipped cream substitute instead of the high quality clotted cream we had last time. Size of scones has halved in the past year. General sandwich menu has improved with bagels added and less sugary desserts. But overall, not good value for money, not a special experience.

    This place deserve 5 stars only because of location and interior. Food was good but also there is a lot of places in Doha where you coud have amazing food but not with overrated prices. But I would love to say about staff working there. It was just few customers and not busy time for them but we were waiting about 30 min to order something. Than when we placed the order staff said the time for breakfast is finished and we have to order lunch. But it was not mentioned before not by staff, not in digital menu. Also after that when finally we ordered lunch, staff could not deceided where to place spoon, for me it was right handsite, for my friend left handsite. No one dish was introduced to us, noone drink as well. Everything was in silent and we felt we were unwelcomed in this place. Also hostess preferred to do cutlery linen instead to take care about customers . For now it was the most horrible customers service in Doha I ever experienced. Place is amazing, view as well but manage of place and hospitality are the worst.

    Nice place to chill for breakfast and dinner. Great view at night :-) Quite chilly at night so better to bring jacket at night

    Need more attention and observation of the area. After 25min i order by calling 📞 it was not too much busy... Didn't see the manager to Meet and Greet the guest. * for Pasta they give me SPOON 🥄, i request 🍴 because it's not a Indian restaurant.

    Great place and food is also great. Will be visiting atleast once a month. The choice of food is very rich.

  • 4/5 Ala A. 1 year ago on Google
    I think it is the best location for a restaurant in Doha. The view is amazing as well as the food and service. Don’t forget to order desert. It can improve by adding more choices to the menu. If they’ve done this, I would give it 5 stars

  • 5/5 Rachid G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to spend a good time with friends or family, the view is superb. The food is not bad but could be improved especially for the pasta as it is too simple. Parking is difficult at the moment because of the road works but there is a valet service 😉

  • 5/5 Chantale R. 1 year ago on Google

The atmosphere is comfortable and the staff are friendly and polite. Also I will not forget the great and speedy service. All these reasons just  make me Say wow 👏

    Unfortunately with the new management this very favorite restaurant in Doha has lost its potential. If it is the parking fees doubling in price or the portions losing at least 30% of their size and taste, this place has not been able to withstand the awful history in Doha of very good restaurants becoming mediocre after some years of existing. The only thing that remains is the location, but in my opinion this is not enough. What a pity.
