This place is my relax corner in Dubai. Reminds me of my house hall back home. You can always walk in for a drink with a relaxing atmosphere. Also I always chose this place if I ever have any guests from outside Dubai so they can enjoy and have a look around as the view outside is amazing, spacious and Burj Al Arab standing side of it. Of course in summer we chose indoors to enjoy not only the air conditioning, and also live music š
I just want to say that, in addition to a great meal you can have, the staff there are always have the right balance of friendliness and efficiency. They recognize that visitors usually needed extra time to visit and enjoy the great view, so they do not rush you which I really appreciate.
for non alcohol drinks, I highly recommend the Moroccan tea and the cocktail juice. they are kind enough to make for me the mix that i prefer :) (strawberry, banana, milk, honey).
For starters and meals, hot mezza is great, mini burgers and club sandwich (always have it extra toasted).
Do not forget to have your valet parking ticket stamped. I can not wait to...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI had afternoon tea here today and it was one of the best Ive had in the world, as I have had it in many cities. The ambiance is gorgeous, the service was top notch and welcoming, and the food was excellent. I loved the mini sandwiches, each one an artistic creation full of flavor. The sweet pastries were great too. The star of the show was the delicious scones with REAL CLOTTED CREAM! you donāt often find that outside of the UK. All of our servers were very kind and attentive. One was Sherilyn ( Iām sorry if Iām not exact on the name). She gave great service. ( thank you from Maryam A.) The only change I would request they make the tea with water that has boiled fully, hot water does not brew tea correctly. Also, tea should be refilled as desired as is the custom with true afternoon tea, and the tea leaves should be in a tea ball to be removed at the 4 min mark for the perfect time. I will definitely return as often as I can. Also, I made online reservations very easily on their website. (They only reserve for afternoon...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI recently visited the lounge that left a really bad impression due to the blatant racism displayed by the staff towards local people. It was disheartening to see how they treated us compared to tourists. When I asked the waitress if we could sit at a table outside, she immediately told me it was reserved and seated us at a less desirable table. Just a few minutes later, a group of British tourists arrived, and the same waitress invited them to sit at the very table she had denied us, even saying they could stay for two hours despite it being "reservedā for another group. This isnāt an isolated incident; many locals have experienced this kind of treatment. Itās frustrating to be treated like second-class citizens in our own country while tourists receive the best views and service. Itās high time the management trains their staff to show some respect and manners to everyone, regardless of where they come from. Itās sad to witness such discrimination, and I hope they can change their approach...
