Obviously I do...  

It's oriental / Mediterranean style that includes Shoarma (freshly cut from the roast), cinnamon rice (never tried that before, it's DELICIOUS), fish, baked spiced potatoes, ...  There was also some pasta and lasagne for the vegi's.  Also Arabian styled pastries for dessert as well as fresh cinnamon flavoured fruit salad, pancakes and things like that.  

I also had mint tea for the very first time in my life (don't like tea but it was good!)

It was sooo good, I went back the second day.

Edit: I'm hungry now....  :lol:

Oh the photos are so great. The restaurant is just my right place. I hope it will now stay open and not only in high season. I really want to eat there on my next trip. It looks so oriental. My husband, who is from an oriental country will love it.  :wink:

Brilliant video, thanks for all this!

Great to see a restaurant with a proper, themed selection of food - something different to steaks, burgers. DLRP really ought to serve more exotic foods like this. The tea in those special glasses looks like a wonderful touch.

They got this one spot on. :)

Looks fantastic, but very quiet!

I remember when this was a shop, when the park first opened. Im sure at that stage there were areas that were open to the elements. Is that still the case, or is there a false roofing above the stick roofing?

I read in the book "Walt Disney Imagineering" that they created a false roof over the stick roofing. It's special, cause it looks like there is now roof, but because of the more bad weather it was necessary to have a roof there to keep it dry when it rains.

What a great piece of imagineering art this location is!
I just love it, as if stepping into a whole new world. Glad to see it opening again. Surely going to eat there my next visit!

Oh my God - the Agrabah Café looks better than I ever imagined  :shock: I've always loved to eat there one day, but never had the chance to... The pictures are really, really awesome, well done :)!

I hope sooo much that it'll be opened now forever, even during the lower seasons  [-o<
But I guess it's only for people who booked Half Board Meal plans, right?!

So there's also enough yummy food for the Veggies? :)
And funny, I don't usually like tea either, but tried some mint tea during the last few months and now it's okay to drink ;)!

Quote from: "experiment627"
kurgly_bird,

it's *not* halfboard-exclusive. This seems to have been the idea initially. Now guests with halfboard vouchers will have priority when looking for a table (a *must* for people who have already paid for the meal and are looking for a place to eat during the busier seasons of the year).

But now everyone will be able to have a meal at Agrabah. (21,- Euro for adults.) And this is what I am going to do next week.  :)

So, I'd recommend anybody who wants to eat there to get a reservation at a Disney conciergerie, at City Hall or Studio Services or the restaurant itself first thing after getting to the resort. (Or just call the reservation hotline in advance...)


Not half board only Nala ;)

MSW, I think you're missing the point lol.  It's open for everyone, but guests with half board tickets will get priority access to the restaurant.  But don't worry, it's HUGE inside, so lots and lots of tables.  Definitely a smart move by park operations.
