After a successful soft opening in May 2019, HuQQa has already established itself as one of the most popular hangouts in Muscat and has brought an added lifestyle element to the dining scene in Oman, making it a perfect destination for food lovers. With its unique approach to people-centric hospitality, HuQQa serves as the best venue for city-dwellers to enjoy; whether it’s for a traditional Turkish breakfast or a relaxed dinner by the marina.

Originally from Turkey, HuQQa began its journey at The Bosphorus, which today is celebrated as one of the most unique lounges in Turkish city Istanbul. The restaurant has since expanded beyond borders, bringing its brand to the GCC and more recently Muscat with the arrival of HuQQa and The Market.

”We wanted HuQQa to be a place where people can feel at home. A place where they come to socialize with their friends easily and comfortably, set to the backdrop of cool fusion beats with a view to match. HuQQa Muscat offers exactly that and we are delighted with the end result”. – Cihan Kamer, HuQQa Group Chairman.
