A Legacy of Flavor, A Tradition of Hospitality
At Dama Rose, we bring the rich flavors of Middle Eastern cuisine to West Haven, CT, with recipes passed down through generations. Founded by Malaz Hayek, a Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef, our restaurant is inspired by his family's culinary legacy, beginning with Al Hayek Restaurant in Damascus. Every dish, from our scratch-made falafel and hummus to our succulent kebabs and shawarma, is crafted with passion and the finest ingredients.
Whether you're dining in, grabbing takeout, or opting for delivery, we invite you to experience the warmth of our hospitality and the authentic taste of tradition.
