AWESOME Restaraunt!!!!

The view is to die for. Food french style (little portions but nice presentation). Not cheap. Drop $120+/person. But view is worth it...

Recommend it, once in a life time thing. Take your honey and enjoy.

Service is slow (expect 2-1/2 hrs for dinner).

It can be rated as 4.5/5

The best thing to do is go for lunch there they got better offers.

Those who think that Riyadh traffic is crazy should try driving in Jeddah, or maybe even Cairo...

@MM: dont know about Cairo, but the Jeddah its not crazy, it is anarchistic.. there are no rules. the level comes down as we come eastward..

Oh! you'll love it, they have so many nice variety of coffees there as well, one tip would be to make reservation before you go, they don't like to entertain walk-in's
