Cabana is a casual lounge and outdoor pool bar concept by Address hotel that features shisha, cabanas, a live DJ playing some of the best songs and an outdoor pool with an amazing view of downtown.
Although it is categorized as an casual lounge, I considered it to be more of an upscale brand.
There are no other casual restaurants with the same concept that serves up the kind of quality that Cabana. Of course being an Address restaurant, they spared no expense in bringing the best ingredients and the chefs to prepare them.
I visited on seafood night where there was a mini seafood brunch in the evening. All the food was brought to you, and you just had to sit back and enjoy.
We sat outside to enjoy the view and was pleased with the cleaniness of the area, being an outdoor dining area that serves food usually means that there would be some flies flying around but this wasnt the case at Cabana.
The best item on the menu has to be the cold starter bowl which featured crab, lobster, scallop, mussels, sashimi and sushi rolls, that were all served up iced cold. The seafood were all so fresh that it was as they had just caught everything from the sea and prepared it for us.
Some of the other items like the seafood paella tasted Mediterranean and it was very well done. Usually I don't eat paella but this was so next level that it was basically finished shortly after arriving.
The cocktails were also nicely presented with flavours that were equally as amazing as the presentation.
Overall, whether you want to consider Cabanas as a pool bar, shisha lounge or outdoor dining venue, it is a restaurant not...

The buffet spread was nothing short of impressive, offering a wide variety of traditional Arabic dishes. From fragrant rice pilafs to tender grilled meats, each dish was prepared with care and bursting with flavor.
And let's not forget about the desserts! Indulging in sweet treats like baklava and kunafa was the perfect way to end our meal. The Turkish ice cream was a highlight, accompanied by a fun demonstration of the old culture of jelab drink.
