Damasca One Restaurant

Damasca One in Doha is one of my favourite places to visit — I come here regularly, and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, with beautiful Syrian touches that make you feel at home the moment you sit down. The food is always fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented, from their classic mezze to their perfectly grilled dishes. I especially love visiting during Ramadan. The ambiance becomes even more special, with warm lights, traditional music, and a peaceful, festive feeling that makes the experience unforgettable. Their iftar is generous, delicious, and always prepared with great attention to detail. Whether you’re coming for a casual meal or a special evening out, Damasca One offers amazing food, great service, and an atmosphere that keeps you coming back again and again. Highly recommended! 🌙✨

I absolutely loved the food here! The restaurant has an amazing vibe; warm, cozy, and beautifully aesthetic. The service was quick, and we didn’t have to wait for a table (probably because it wasn’t rush hour). The portions were generous and perfect for two people. The staff was friendly and welcoming, adding to the great experience. Overall, it’s a lovely spot to enjoy authentic Syrian food in a relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommend! 👍

We had a really nice meat khabsa — the mutton was slow-cooked to perfection and literally melted in the mouth. It’s not a spicy dish at all, but the flavors are perfectly balanced and rich. We also tried the strawberry milkshake and pistachio custard, and both were absolutely delicious! Everything was mouth-watering, and the overall dining experience was fantastic. Definitely a must-visit spot in Souq Waqif if you want to enjoy authentic Arabic flavors with a great ambiance.

The shawarma was fresh and flavorful, the mixed grill was juicy and well-seasoned, and the hummus was smooth and delicious. Portions are generous and prices are reasonable. The service was friendly and quick, and the outdoor seating has a nice lively Souq atmosphere. Definitely one of the best casual Arabic spots in the area. Will be back!

This restaurant is large and seems to be rather popular, though being seated right at the far end left us a little unloved! We ordered the chicken kabseh and mixed shawmar, both were generous portions. The chicken was tad dry and i had to navigate around the splinters of bone, but the rice was delicious. In the mixed swarmah, the lamb was quite fatty, though the chicken was good.

Always a wonderful taste of authentic Syrian cuisine. The salads, appetizers and main dishes are flawless, but the mixed grill was not up to the expected standard

We ordered Hummus, Chicken Shawarma and lamb chops. All the dishes were tasty, especially lamb chop:) Those were tender, seasoned just right and delicious.

Had a wonderful meal here, delicious food, fresh local bread. Plenty of seating. I chose to sit upstairs on the balcony so I could watch over the souk and be out of the chaos and it was a good choice. At times it was difficult to get attention of waitstaff but I wasn’t in a rush. Delicious, would reccomend.
