Antik Khana Restaurant

Antik Khana ('Antique House') is a Baghdad heritage-themed restaurant celebrated locally for its commitment to traditional Iraqi cuisine and a deliberately nostalgic interior — antique furniture, vintage photographs, warm wood, and copper trays. The menu leans into the Iraqi breakfast canon (kahi w geymar, beid w basha, lablabi, samoun fresh out of the tannour) and expands at lunch and dinner into the full range of national dishes: tashreeb, dolma, masgouf, biryani, kubba mosul. It is regularly mentioned by Baghdad food critics among the city's most heritage-faithful restaurants and is a strong pick if you want both authentic food and a setting that feels like a small Iraqi-cuisine museum.
