About this business
SMAT is a Qatari restaurant at the southern end of Doha's Corniche, next to the Oriental Pearl. It was introduced by AURA Group as a fine-dining take on Qatari and wider Gulf cooking and has been listed in the MICHELIN Guide for Doha. The interior uses bold colours, plush seating and polished tiled floors for an opulent feel.
The menu celebrates heritage dishes from Qatar and neighbouring Gulf states, presented in generous portions. Guests often mention the mzatara samboussa as a starter, lamb-based main courses and the traditional dessert donafa ain helaitan. SMAT opens from breakfast time until after midnight every day, making it suitable for a morning meal, a family lunch or a late dinner after a walk along the Corniche. The restaurant does not serve alcohol, offers valet parking and manages its own table bookings, so reservations are made by contacting the venue directly.
