Cinnamon was one of the first proper fine-dining restaurants in Islamabad when it opened in the early 2000s and remains a fixture of the city's special-occasion calendar. The menu is contemporary European with a few Mediterranean detours — pastas, grilled fish, beef tenderloin, chocolate fondant — competent rather than dazzling but consistently well-executed.
The dining room is in the Beverly Centre on the central Jinnah Avenue (Blue Area). It is one of the few places in the city where smart-casual dress is the norm; bookings are advisable for dinner.
