Rex Restaurant, situated on Al Bahrana Street beside Ihsan Al Khaleej Services, offers a taste of Qatari cuisine in Doha. The establishment is known for its uncomplicated but flavorful dishes. Visitors have noted the delicious mixed plates featuring items like liver, hearts, and kidney seasoned with tomatoes and a hint of spices. For those seeking something different, the lentil dish provides an interesting combination of textures and flavors.

Although the eatery's decor is described as fairly basic, the culinary experience appears to leave a lasting impression. Reviewers have particularly recommended concluding a meal with a cup of their signature tea, despite not shedding much light on recent visitor experiences due to the lack of current reviews.

Operating seven days a week, Rex Restaurant welcomes guests for brunch or dinner within its hours of 05:00-14:30 and 16:30-22:30. However, potential visitors should be aware that parking can be challenging, potentially reflecting the area's popularity. It's important to note the absence of recent information from the restaurant's management, leaving interested diners to explore it based on historical feedback. The restaurant is known for its moderate price range, making it accessible yet with room for discovery.

The restaurant used to be beside old Arab Bank for decades before that area was removed. Finding a parking could be a challenge in this area, but it's all good for the sake of the good food they offer.
I had the usual mixed plate (Liver-Hearts-Kidney) with tomatoes and onions plus Ash (Iranian word for Daal or Lentil).

The food is delicious, nothing much goes on the plate to complicate things. The meats are sauteed 1st, tomatoes added toward the end of cooking just enough to heat them up. Some spices are lightly added to flavor the plate, yet you can taste and identify the components individually (meats are fresh, so why hide that nice flavor?).

The lentil dish is more like different kinds of lentil cooked at different temperatures to give you different textures and taste. The dishes come with 2 Iranian bread and some onions, chili and olives. Don't leave the restaurant without giving their tea a try & I'm sure 1 cup is not enough, otherwise you won't be able to drive on the road :)

I would agree that the place decor is just normal, but the food snd the experience were superb.

I saw the reviews so I tried. Is true, the food looks good and the fish items I ate with my friends had a good quality, comparing to the average in Doha.

The place looks terrible but the food is good. The quality is very high comparing to the price you have. Kind of a hidden gem here.

Recommended dish: Fish fried w/ rice.

Delicious food, super cheap too! The place doesn't look great I'll admit but the food really is that good. Rex is a must try if your nearby.
