Upstairs used to be a half decent Bar with a bar food menu, also a separate restaurant upstairs although not exactly 5 star.

I preferred the bar myself.

Been some time since I been thru there, but there used to be a restaurant with sit down service. Both European and Arabic food. Wasn't outstanding, but at least fair. I thought it a bit pricey, but that is what you expect in the middle east.

P.S. you could also get cold beer with the meal.

Been through several times recently (last in March). The restaurant that IMA_FARANG mentions is still there, but I've not used it recently. It's always struck me as a typical unexciting Middle East airport restaurant, adequate but pricey. During layovers I get free food in the Gulf Air lounge as a frequent flyer, but if I didn't I guess that I would make do with the fast food and franchise outlets (of which there are quite a few), rather than spend in the restaurant.
