Azqa Haroon had the delightful chance to experience Electric Diner, an all-American eatery at The Ned Doha. With its retro charm and menu packed with classic comfort food, this spot is perfect for anyone seeking a relaxed yet indulgent dining experience.
Vibrant ambience
Electric Diner’s interior exudes nostalgia with its vibrant red booths, glowing neon signs, and cosy lighting, creating the quintessential diner atmosphere. Located on the ground floor of The Ned Doha, it also boasts breathtaking views of West Bay, offering the perfect mix of vintage charm and modern sophistication.
Refreshing appetisers and nibbles
The meal began with the Atlantic prawn cocktail, a dish as fresh as it was indulgent. The prawns were perfectly cooked, their sweetness elevated by the tangy Marie Rose sauce. It was a refreshing and satisfying start to the meal, setting the tone for what was to come.
The hash browns, served with sour cream and an unexpectedly delightful apple sauce, were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The pairing of creamy and tangy flavours with the slight sweetness of apple gave this humble dish an exciting twist, making it both comforting and inventive.
Indulgent signature shakes
Electric Diner’s shakes are a highlight in their own right. The Oreo shake was rich, creamy, and indulgently satisfying—exactly what you’d expect from a classic cookies-and-cream treat. On the other hand, the Pina Colada shake offered a refreshing contrast, bringing tropical flavours to the table with its sweet and fruity notes, perfect for balancing the heavier dishes.
Flavourful mains
The double cheeseburger was everything a burger lover could dream of—two juicy patties cooked to perfection, topped with melted cheese and nestled in a soft bun with just the right amount of accompaniments. It was hearty, flavourful, and utterly satisfying.
Equally impressive was the chicken burger, featuring buttermilk fried chicken that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The red slaw added a tangy crunch, while the mayonnaise brought it all together in a delicious harmony of flavours. The hot dog, with its soft bun and juicy sausage, was simple but perfectly executed, making it another classic hit on the menu.
No visit to Electric Diner would be complete without sampling their chicken wings. Each flavour brought its own distinct personality to the table. The Buffalo wings were bold and tangy with a fiery kick, while the BBQ wings had a smoky sweetness that lingered beautifully. For something rich and indulgent, the garlic parmesan wings delivered with their savoury, cheesy goodness. Together, these wings showcased the diner’s ability to nail quintessential comfort food staples.

The Saturday Comfort Brunch, held every Saturday in January, is a family-friendly affair featuring a sharing-style menu of American classics like burgers, wings, and hot dogs, alongside live entertainment, including a magician and kids’ activities.
