Sunrise Breakfast with a Lusail View

Sunrise Breakfast with a Lusail View

The House is a slow-crafted dining destination in Lusail's Marina District, open daily from 8am to midnight across four spaces — a rooftop terrace facing the Katara Towers, a planted secret garden, an elegant indoor dining room, and a ground floor beside the open kitchen. It is run by a small team who are on the floor and in the kitchen every day.

Who runs the kitchen at The House?

Tarek Murad is Executive Chef at The House. He leads the culinary team across a menu of fourteen sections and more than a hundred dishes, with expertise spanning Italian cuisine, seafood and contemporary Middle Eastern flavours. His focus is innovation, consistency and quality — turning each dish into an expression of the restaurant's identity rather than a version of someone else's.

What does the chef's range look like on the menu?

Italian sits alongside the Levant. Pasta and pizza start at QAR 75, Cheesy Mussels are QAR 61, Prime Steak and French Fries is QAR 149, and the breakfast list is built on Signature Shakshuka (QAR 49) and Sunrise Labneh and Zatar (QAR 39). The open kitchen on the ground floor is deliberate — bread proofed, labneh strained and coffee pulled where guests can see it happen.

Who runs the restaurant?

Mohamed Ghassen Ben Hammouda is General Manager of The House. He holds a Master's degree in Business Administration specialising in Tourism and Hospitality Management, and brings experience across hospitality operations, team leadership, financial management and restaurant development. His remit is the guest experience, the operational standards behind it, and the continued development of The House as a dining destination in Lusail.

Why does the team matter to how The House feels?

Because service is the thing guests mention most. The House holds 4.3 out of 5 from more than 1,200 Google reviews, and the recurring theme in them is the floor team rather than any single dish. One guest wrote that it was their first visit but they would make it their home. That is a management outcome as much as a kitchen one.

Can you meet the team?

Yes — both are regularly on site. For private dining, workshops, celebrations and catering enquiries the team handles bookings directly on +974 3111 8693 or at management@thehouse.qa. For a table, reservation slots run hourly from 9am to midnight.

The House is at Manarat Lusail Tower, Building 23, Street 318, Zone 69, Marina District, Lusail — a short walk from Lusail Boulevard and reachable by Lusail metro or tram. Open daily 8am to midnight.
