The Terrace by The Good Butcher, overseen by food entrepreneur and chef Basma El-Khereiji, is a new seaside spot that combines casual dining with live music and pop-up events.

Located next to Movenpick Jeddah Al-Nawras in Ash Shati, the setting offers an open view of the water, making it a relaxed place to spend an afternoon or evening.

The menu focuses heavily on burgers, with options ranging from the double and triple smashed cheeseburgers, to the more elaborate truffle and wagyu burgers.

I tried a selection of the smashed burgers and found the beef to be well cooked and the seasoning balanced, though the triple cheeseburger felt slightly heavy with all the toppings combined.

The crispy chicken burger and chicken Caesar burger provided alternatives to red meat, with straightforward preparation and familiar flavors. Sides such as parmesan and truffle fries, paired with sauces like cheddar, BBQ and truffle mayo, complemented the mains.
