Had El Shebbak Restaurant: Where Damascus Comes Alive in One Stunning View!

Not every day you get to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner right in front of Qasioun Mountain, with all of Damascus stretching out beneath you like a magical postcard. But at Had El Shebbak restaurant, that dream is real, and it’s served with a side of unforgettable flavor!

Located on the 11th floor of Blue Tower Hotel on Hamra Street, this place nails the vibe. Think: sunshine, breeze, elegant Damascene style, and dishes that taste like home (but fancier).

Morning magic? They’ve got it.

Start your day with a full-on traditional Syrian breakfast: labneh, hummus, foul, eggs, olives, cheese, and all the good stuff, served with that iconic Damascus view.

Feeling extra? Go for something different like shakshouka, eggs with soujouk or sausage, fatté, or warm pastries. Top it off with your favorite hot drink.

And here’s the cool part: sometimes, there’s live oud music in the background. Yep, breakfast with a soundtrack. It’s dreamy.

Lunchtime = grill time

When lunchtime rolls around, it’s all about the grills. We’re talking Aleppo kebab, Adana kebab, shish tawook, even sushi-style kebab (yes, it’s a thing and it works).

Had El Shebbak restaurant also serves soul-warming dishes like shakriya, kibbeh labanieh, shish barak, and freekeh. Plus, all the mezzas your heart desires, hot, cold, and everything in between.

Salads? You bet. From fattoush to Caesar to Armenian twists, there’s something for every mood.

Sweet treats + chill sips

Time for dessert? Go in with cheesecake, tiramisu, custard, or some good old brownies. Drinks? Take your pick: Turkish coffee, fresh juices, milkshakes, frappes, or colorful cocktails. The table stays fun till the very last sip.
