Petra Restaurants

Dining in the town closest to the antiquities site of Petra—Wadi Musa—ranges from simple, inexpensive fare to the elegant and pricey, with little in between. Both dining experiences, however, have one thing in common: courteous service and a welcoming spirit. Don't be put off by the plainness of center-village eateries. The locals enjoying their meal at the next table will remind you that the best fare is often to be had at such unostentatious restaurants.
