Dar Habak Lebanese Cuisine — Restaurant in Dubai

Reminiscing mom’s homemade lebanese food and Lebanese ambiance ? habak is the place to satisfy your cravings and fulfill your memories offering the most pleasing experience in a fine dining atmosphere!

Upon entrance we were greeted with humble and friendly staff. Mr Paul who is the Master chef and Owner of Habak was present too and showed us around his restaurant with great interest to allow ourselves to feel comfortable and giving us home like feeling to select the best spot in restaurant to be seated at. He took good care of us and made sure everything was on point!

To begin our lunch with we were first offered with refreshing coolers passion fruit and berry coconut , minty , chilled with fresh cut fruits was just what we needed to beat the summer heat!

When in Lebanese restaurant how can one miss to have the famous Mediterranean Mezze (appetizers). I personally love mezze platters year round but especially in summertime they are just great food essentials . Nothing beats the mixtures of textures and flavors with hot and fresh khubbus.

Started of with traditional Lebanese Tabbouleh salad , fresh and delicious The must have and addictive creamy chunky hummus Muttabal (smoked egg plant) with so fragrant and charred taste flavor Waraq anab ( stuffed grapewine leaves) dipped in vinegar and lemon dressing was soft sour and tasty Mosakhan crunchy outside yummylicious inside Kebbeh belsenya loaded with mince meat goodness Felafel served with beautiful presentation of tahini and pickles one of my favorite mezze soft and flavorful !

We ordered these as starters but since these were so tempting and appetizing it turned out to be a great substitute for lunch+ dinner!

However we still coudnt miss on the famous Lebanese Mashawi (mixed grill) served in a classy style stand , each skewers perfectly grilled , the smokiness of their char and the zesty lemon garlic marinade flavor just made this dish the highlight of our lunch.

How could we leave without dessert , yes we ordered everyone favourite Kunafa with cheese... and also tried the new edition to their menu Date Cake topped with Vanilla ice cream on Chef Paul recommendation - both of these came piping hot the date cake was impeccable, the hot and cold combination with salted caramel dressing was scrumptious....

Something different then the usual desserts i would highly recommend the date cake it was worth every bite- the Show Stopper - a Must try

Overall exceptional experience at Habak restaurant where Authentic Lebanese food , service and ambiance is served with a french culinary touch definitely visiting soon again!

P.s they have shisha options and seperate seating area too but suspended due...

Habak Iftar is all you need for an authentic Lebanese street style feast! Super welcoming and attentive staff with a real smile is taking care of you throughout your visit!

You get to try a large variety of what their chefs are capable of and it all looks and tastes so delicious and yummie! Almost too much to name, but there is salad, moutabel, freekeh salad, cooked beans, muhamara and not to forget...the special Habak Hummus. You have to try it yourself to find out what makes this hummus so tasty and different from the regular hummus. Hot mezzes like Falafel, Cheese sticks, Spinach Fatayer and a mini Cheese pie are crispy and not too salty too.

Fresh bread, olives, cucumber/carrot sticks, all is there to compliment your perfect iftar meal.

For vegetarian main course I got special vermicelli rice with cooked yoghurt, a perfect mix of ingredients that come together!

A good selection of juices including Vimto and Laban is present as well.

The most memorable dish was the lentil soup, what a delight for the tongue...I am not a soup fan but this soup I could eat daily!

If you still have space left in your stomach, they have all the traditional sweets: Arabic baklava -great taste!-, Kunafa, Umm Ali, Luquimat, etc. A Must Try!

Also for meat lovers there is a wealth of choices so next time I bring my friends to try...

New gem at Dar Wasl Mall ....i am totally impressed. Visited here for early dinner yesterday. The interiors are cozy and beautiful. we tried Hummus ---Loved it ...completely different from the hummus i have had in the past . The flavor and the taste were exceptional Kibbeh- Have never been a great fan of kibbeh but the way they serve it here , i super liked it . Lamb leg--This is the show stealer....super well done lamb which has been cooked over 3 days served with vermicilli rice with minced meat. The rice was flavorful and the lamb leg i could finish in no time . It was so juicy, soft and yum. A must try !

Mix Grill -- this was pretty good too Dessert--we had cheese kunafa which was excellent too. Drinks - we had water melon juice and pineapple juice.

The food portions are very generous . And not to forget its organic ! and you can defnitely feel it in the quality of food . If you are looking for authentic lebanese food, very reasonably priced but excellent taste and a beautiful service...
