This restaurant is clean and has good food. We tried their Lamb Mansaf. It was super yummy and the rice is flavorful basmati rice with pine nuts. Their pepperoni pizza was good and we were happy to eat a decent pizza outside the US. We also tried their Kunafa… it’s not the kind that uses khatifi. It was so so I would say. Overall it’s a good place to stop after visiting Petra.

We turned up after a long day exploring Petra and were given the full Jordanian experience! The staff were excellent. We are from the UK, ordered the mansaf and were told how to eat it like a true Jordanian! Complementary tea was a lovely touch as well as a full demo of how they make knafeh. 10/10. Would highly recommend

We had a wonderful dining experience. The food was excellent and full of flavor. We started with the fattet maqdous as an appetizer and absolutely loved it. The musakhan is a must-try and was our favorite dish. The maqloba was good, and the kunafa was very fresh, perfectly balanced, and not overly sweet. The staff were extremely generous and welcoming, especially Ahmad. We were curious to see how the kunafa is made, and they kindly showed us the full process, which was both interesting and appreciated. The location is very convenient, right next to Downtown Mall. The atmosphere is cozy; adding some Jordanian music would enhance the overall vibe even more. Overall, the prices are reasonable considering the quality of the food

Elan Restaurant in Wadi Musa was one of the best dining experiences I had in Jordan. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and very attentive, making sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. The service really stood out—they were quick, polite, and always ready to explain the dishes and give recommendations. The food was absolutely incredible. Every plate we tried was fresh, flavorful, and felt like a true taste of local Jordanian cuisine. What made it even more special was being able to see how one of the traditional local dishes was being prepared right there. It added an authentic and cultural touch to the experience that you don’t get everywhere. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also worth mentioning—comfortable, clean, and with a welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay a little longer. It’s the type of place where you not only eat well but also enjoy the whole experience, from the service to the presentation. If you’re in Wadi Musa and looking for great local food with excellent service, Elan Restaurant is definitely a must-visit. It combines hospitality, authenticity, and quality in the best way possible.
