Saida Rest House

“An old house converted to a restaurant. They serve all kinds of food and non alcoholic drinks. Their terrace overlooks the sea so it is a magnificent place to relax. We just went there to have coffee. The coffee was not good. The waiters were friendly and helpful. Prices are relatively high.”

“All details about this place are amazing. Starting from parking to huge green spaces with kiddy ground, mesmerising fortress view, wide range of super delicious food, cleanness and waiters polite attitude. I love it and definitely recommend it as one of the best in Lebanon.”

“Nice place to visit, I had a shisha and an orange juice and they were good and refreshing in a hot day. I did not try their food, but they have all the traditional Lebanese dishes. The view is nice and the sea is beautiful.”

View, delicious food & lovely staff! You will love the view while eating. This place has an amazing landscape view to Saida's sea and Saida's sea-castle. Food is excellent, and the time between the order and actually getting the dish is pretty fair. Staff are very welcoming. From the minute you enter till the minute you leave, they will willingly assist you. Well recommended!!

We had our breakfast there and really enjoyed the setting. The terrace is beautiful—right by the sea and near Sidon Castle—offering one of the best views and atmospheres in the city. The staff was friendly, and the food was generally good, though the prices were a bit on the expensive side. Unfortunately, we didn’t like the fatteh at all—the bread inside didn’t seem fresh, and when we shared our feedback with the staff, there was no response or action taken. We add cheese to the eggs, but the quantity is not noticeable and they charge 3$ We were also obliged to order a bottle of water, which didn’t feel right, especially at a price of $5—more than ten times its actual value. Tea was also overpriced. Overall, it’s a nice place with a stunning view, but the experience didn’t fully match the cost. Worth a visit for the ambiance, but be mindful of the prices.
