Kana Lounge — Restaurant in Dubai

This is one of those places in Dubai that blends business, leisure, and sheer indulgence in a way that only this city can. Strategically located in Dubai Digital Park, it’s right next to a ground-level parking area (which, if you know Dubai traffic, is a godsend) and boasts a massive terrace with cozy seating sprawled all over. This means you can walk in without a reservation, find a premium seat, and before you know it, end up in a business meeting with your party - without even talking business. If you’ve been here, you’ll get it.

Dubai is all about shine, and Kana Lounge doesn’t disappoint - everything here gleams, including the food. And here’s the twist: it actually tastes as good as it looks - if not better. After multiple visits (mostly because of its convenient central location), I can confirm that this is one of the few places where the food actually looks better in real life than in the menu pictures - which, as we all know, is practically unheard of.

The lamb shank is unforgettable, slow-cooked to perfection, falling apart at the touch of a fork. The salads are so colorful they look like they belong in a futuristic art gallery - but they’re real, fresh, and good. The Stromboli (think gourmet calzones) are a safe choice if you’re starving but don’t want to show it. And then there’s the hummus, served flawlessly, tasting just as hummus should: simple, rich, and addictive.

But the real magic of Kana Lounge isn’t just the food - it’s the atmosphere. If humanity ever gets serious about colonizing Mars, this place should be the first thing we send up there. Give it a few years, and suddenly the entire planet would be habitable, full of life, and most importantly - full of people who want to be there. Until then, you might as well enjoy this little interplanetary experience right...

Kana Lounge | Dubai Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)

I recently visited Kana Lounge in Dubai Silicon Oasis. The ambiance was pleasant, featuring stylish decor and comfortable seating, creating a cozy environment suitable for casual gatherings. 

The menu offered a variety of dishes, including Levantine cuisine and international options. I tried the mixed grill platter; while the meats were adequately seasoned, some pieces were slightly overcooked, affecting the overall taste. The signature mocktails were refreshing, though not particularly distinctive.

Service was friendly but inconsistent. During peak hours, there was a noticeable delay in order taking and food delivery, which impacted the dining experience.

Additionally, the shisha offerings were varied, but the quality was average compared to other lounges in the area.

Overall, Kana Lounge provides a decent dining experience with room for improvement in food preparation and service efficiency. It’s a reasonable choice for a casual outing, but there are areas that could be enhanced to elevate the...

We’ve been going to Kana cafe since 2019, but this time it was a different experience. Usually we sit on the first floor where we are served this nice soft spoken gentleman. However due to a nice weather we chose to sit outside, it was nice as we entered. But then we ordered sheesha, they suggested PAN (prejudiced) but we said we want cinnamon gum with less mint. The manager (prejudiced) asked the attendant to ask us if we are new, we said we come here often, she said we want to let you know it’s not replaceable if u don’t like it? “Moment of being mortified” Still, we didn’t want to spoil experience, the sheesha came in and for a long time no one came to change the coals, and when we complained that the sheesha is tilted, they gave us a judgemental look and asked “are you having sheesha first time”

noticed a clear disparity in how different ethnicities are treated. Disappointing experience—hospitality should be consistent and welcoming for everyone, regardless...
