These are not taxi companies but they are properly licensed drivers. Ahmed drives for a company that has a contract with Rydges hotel and Mohammed something similar but you can do your own contract with them.
I wouldn't bother with the taxi company which is called Karwa. Its a waste of time. The cars are nice and the drivers are smart but they are very unreliable in terms of showing up on time if at all. With the drivers I suggested, you deal only with them and you have their phone numbers and they have yours. For me it worked vey well. I still use these guys when I go out for a drink.
Also a lot of the Karwa guys are new to Doha and don't know their way around. Mohammed and Ahmed have both been here for more than 10 years and can help you with a multitude of things in addition to getting around.
Back to restaurants. My daughter (aged 10) really enjoys the outdoor restauarant (med/Italian) at the Sheraton. You can have your wine and at this time of the year it is very pleasant to sit outside.
