Review Eric's for us was completely unheard of, since the beginning of time so we were so surprised when our bur Dubai friends mentioned they frequent there all the time. When asked about the cuisine, they said its primarily Goan, but you get all kinds of fusion things available! My wife was a bit irked because she is not a bi fan of coconut based dished and she is allergic to seafood, so she had it in her head that it was her day to starve for dinner. Quietly we made our way there, and just in time because they only had one table available and the crowds were pouring in by the second!
Food The menu was vast and yes it was so typically Goan, but the good thing was that there were plenty chicken dishes as well and there was PAD THAI! Like, you are not allowed to complain when there is pad Thai involved. Our group is such a seafood lover, so we ended up ordering majority of the starters as seafood, and maybe one chicken starter and one chicken main dish!
Verdict The seafood at Eric's is exceptional, but the chicken is not! They are true to their cuisine which is all about seafood and coconutty mixtures! It seemed like a humble joint that is there to impress people with it's food and not some fancy setting and we thought it did that. Head over there to enjoy some kickass seafood!

Read moreA Beautiful Reunion with an Old Favourite – Eric’s Restaurant, Karama
Returning to Eric’s Restaurant in Karama after seven long years felt like coming home. Before we moved to London, this was our go-to spot—comforting, consistent, and full of memories. We used to dine here at least twice a month with our kids, and it was heartwarming to visit again during our recent holiday in Dubai. What made this visit truly special was not just the delicious food (which is still as flavorful and satisfying as we remembered), but the sense of familiarity and warmth. The staff, who once saw our children in baby seats, welcomed us back and were amazed to see how much they’ve grown. It was a touching reminder of the passage of time and the genuine relationships that can form over good food and kind service. Eric’s has retained its charm—still serving up great food with a generous helping of hospitality. This experience wasn’t just a meal; it was a walk down memory lane and a celebration of where it all began. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic food, friendly faces, and a place that truly...
