Wikka Restaurant is better than a typical hotel restaurant, but is it worthy of a Michelin star? I doubt it. While previous reviews have raised concerns about service quality, my focus here is on the food. We had a three-course dinner featuring beef carpaccio as a starter, lamb as the main course, and a side of blackcurrant sauce with sefiir. Unfortunately, the lamb was tough and lacked tenderness. I managed to finish my portion, but some of my colleagues had to send their dishes back to the kitchen. The replacement meat was noticeably different—tender, juicy, and far superior to the initial serving. This suggests that the tough portions may have been kept warm for too long, losing their freshness before being served. If the restaurant continues in this manner, earning a Michelin star will remain out of reach.
Would I recommend dining at Wikka Restaurant? Absolutely, especially if you choose the fish. The seafood is consistently prepared fresh to order, perfectly seasoned, and never overcooked. I've dined here several times and have always been impressed by the quality of the fish dishes. The bread is also a highlight—particularly the black, roasted, indigenous variety. While I personally avoid sweets, that's just a matter of taste.
