Sharq Village & Spa, a Ritz-Carlton Hotel - Doha

Overview

Dining information

You’ll find that dining at this resort is as much about atmosphere as it is about flavour. Every venue feels thoughtfully designed to immerse you in a different mood, from grand interiors filled with ornate details to breezy outdoor terraces overlooking the water. Begin at Al Liwan Restaurant, where vaulted ceilings, glowing lanterns and open kitchens set the stage for generous spreads of mezze, fresh Levantine dishes and indulgent desserts. The restaurant’s all-day offering means you can start with something light in the morning and return later for a lavish dinner. Come evening, the romance of Parisa Persian Restaurant is hard to resist, with its sea-view terrace, hand-painted Persian artwork and glittering mosaics that sparkle under candlelight. Here, rich stews, saffron rice and delicately spiced kebabs are presented with a contemporary touch, making every plate feel like a celebration. For something more relaxed yet equally flavourful, Al Wanis Restaurant offers an inviting space to explore the bold tastes of Middle Eastern cuisine, where traditional dishes are served with warmth and authenticity.

When you’re looking for something a little more refined, Al Jalsa Cafe and Lobby Lounge offers the perfect retreat. With plush seating, intricate chandeliers and traditional Qatari detailing, this is a space where you’ll want to pause and savour the moment. This is the place for aromatic Moroccan teas, perfectly poured coffees, and trays of Arabic sweets or elegant pastries. Afternoon tea here is a particular highlight, with delicate cakes, savoury bites and premium blends served against a backdrop of soft lighting and quiet sophistication.

If your idea of dining is more leisurely, Al Seef Poolside Bar & Cafe is perfect for unhurried afternoons in the sun. With its swim-up bar and casual, open-air setting, you can slip straight from the water to a shaded table for a crisp salad, a mezze platter or a refreshing drink. This is the kind of spot where time stretches, letting you graze on light bites while enjoying the gentle splash of the pool. Later in the day, El Cedro Lounge offers an entirely different energy – chic interiors and an outdoor terrace combine with live music and a Latin-inspired small plates menu. Whether you’re unwinding with friends or setting the tone for a lively night, it’s a vibrant space even long after the sun has set.
