Customers such as A K applaud Mushkaku's standing as the “No.1 Mishkaak shop” in Nizwa, and even recommend the soup available at just 200 baisas, which is full of flavor and a perfect starter to warm your heart.

Mushkaku’s commitment to quality and authentic flavors makes it a beloved destination in Nizwa. With opening hours from early morning until 1 PM and then from 4 PM onward, you can easily plan your visit around your day.
