Wanted to love but could not. Taking guests around town and reserved a table well in advance because this was to be a highlight of the day. Our reservation was honoured properly but that's the end of the positivity.

We were seated immediately but then nothing. Others were seated and within minutes had a waiter flipping the plates over and taking drinks. A table that arrived after us got their first food dish before we even spoke to anyone.

We had to flag down a waiter who seemed utterly confused and we attempted to order drinks. Nothing arrived. Walked to the hostess and asked for a menu because the wifi and qr code was slow. Never received anything. She stayed playing on her phone the whole time.

Flagged down another waiter, attempted to order food and drink because it had been a while now. He didn't write anything down. We got 3 appetizers and 5 entrees. 2 entrees were wrong. 1 entree arrived after everyone else had eaten so it wasn't even needed and we had to flag down a waiter to remind him that 1 of the guests didn't have an entree in front of them.

We never recieved 2 of the drinks we ordered. The 2 bottles of water arrived with the last entree, after an hour of service with no water. A complete waste.

Was honestly the worst dining experience we ever had in the UAE. The food itself was mid. 2 plates, the wrong orders, were inedible. The haloumi flatbread was delicious and arrived quickly. The shish tawook grill was also good, but arrived an hour late and so was barely eaten. The others weren't bad but not good.

The location is amazing minus the abundance of house flies. The gulf, boardwalk, and breeze are hard to beat. We had high expectations, and didn't even receive food court level service. A genuine disappointment.
