Tawle: The Full Maydān Experience, Meant to Be Shared

$95 per person

“Tawle” (meaning table in Arabic) serves as an example of how we'd like groups to enjoy a full meal at Maydan - with flow & abundance. This curated meal is a set menu that is meant to be enjoyed family-style.

Our freshly baked tone bread, warm from the hearth, is readily available to accompany your every bite!

The Tawle experience is offered in all dining areas.
