Al Bahjah Restaurant

Top choice in Northern Coast


Seeb has a large expat community from India, and this is reflected in the presence of this very good Indian restaurant. It showcases dishes mostly from Kerala, in southern India, but there are also international options including chicken tikka masala all the way from Bradford, UK. The restaurant is dimly lit and atmospheric, and unusually serves alcohol.

Not surprisingly, it's a hit with Western expats.
