We ate a couple of times at the Cave Bar located right next to the entrance to Petra and right next door to the Crowne Plaza (owned by them, too).  Although it was a little on the expensive side (compared to other restaurants in Wadi Musa)  when was the last time you had dinner in a 2,000 year old Nabatean Tomb?

They serve great mezze (appetizers with a variety of salads, hummus, tabbouleh, baba ganoush, olives, etc.) and lemon juice (not exactly lemonade – more like biting into a lemon).   Since the restaurant is run by the Crowne Plaza we felt safe eating fresh salads and ice there.  We had no problems and ate there 3 times.  The food was safe and delicious!

You can choose to eat indoors or outside, which is shaded, since it’s in the little side .  Eating outside on a warm starry night in such a perfect location was an awesome way to cap off a great day spent exploring the amazing ruins of Petra.
