AHLAN WA SAHLAN

Shams El Balad is a restaurant inspired by the city it lives in and the people that comprise it. Housed in a quintessentially Ammani home, overlooking the citadel and Ummayad Palace, we are focused on producing a contemporary local cuisine inspired by the craft, produce and culture of our region. Shams El Balad is a celebration of our heritage, land and the people who work tirelessly to protect them for all of us to enjoy. 

We believe that our food only tastes as good as our ingredients. That's why we are proud to work with passionate local farmers, producers and artisans.
