Every Friday my wife and I go for lunch at a restaurant, and our weekly dilemma is always “sooo….where do you want to eat today??” and this question gets thrown back and forth from the time we get up till the time we’re in the car driving to the yet unknown destination! Eventually something has to pop that we agree on….

Anyway that got me thinking about posting my top 5 restaurants in Kuwait, and feel free to invite me to any of them at any time -

1 - Edo - Best sushi in town, what I like about them is that they don’t go crazy with their sushi, they try to keep it as simple as possible in terms of ingredients. Also, the atmosphere is very relaxed and chill, everything is white and the music is nice and loungy, I always feel happy whenever I enter Edo!
2- Casper & Gambini’s - My home away from home. I’m sure I’ve had more food from Casper’s in the past two years than from anywhere else including home! Their service is incredible, they’re the best at customer relations, also their food is very delicious and healthy, and always 20 mins away by one phone call!
3- Maki - Maki is what made sushi cool in Kuwait! Their sushi is excellent too, except for my taste they have been overdosing their sushi with extra sauces and spicy mayo and such….it obviously happened because the market demands so you cant blame them! The atmosphere is very different, its very loud and dark and the tables are right next to each other, so its the perfect place for guys and girls to hang out in a cool place with good food and also get a chance to check each other out! The Marina Waves Maki is amazing by the way!
4- Chilis - In my opinion, this is the best family oriented restaurant in Kuwait! I really like their food, and I like the fact that when you go there for lunch or dinner, its always full, and alot of families and couples go there too! Many places offer same kind of food (Friday’s, Ruby Tuesday, Applebee’s), but for me Chilis has the best food and crowd.
5- Villa Fayrouz - I’m not a huge fan of Lebanese food, but Villa Fayrouz is exceptional when it comes to the starters (mazza). I never order a main course there, its always 5 or 6 starters, and they are amazing! I’ve never left that place unsatisfied! Also, the atmosphere is very nice too, with Fayrouz in the background and nice atmosphere!

These are my choices for my favourite 5 restaurants here in Kuwait ……… opinions and thoughts??Also I’d like to see your lists!
