Started as one of the best restaurants in town some years ago, we went last 2 years ago, very mediocre. But last night 25th May 2012 we gave it another try. Beautiful location, but from moktail until coffee was utterly disgraceful. Moktails too sweet with syrup hardly anything fresh. Starters looked grimm, half raw sateh, over fried beef bits, soft/floppy... More

The waiter presented our sharing dishes saying "fish, chicken and veg" ok... No description? Have to get and walk to get someone's attention. More

To make the most of your experience, book a table outdoors. Obviously this is possible only in the cooler months of Oct-Apr. The booking confirmation allows you to take the abra (motorized boat) from the station at the Souk Madinat Jumeirah. This is a nice 5-minute ride through the winding waterways. Once you get there, the wait-staff at the restaurant... More

We went to this restaurant for our anniversary and was so looking forward to it but I was totally disappointed as the dishes were not balanced in flavor, in fact I thought the quality was really poor. The presentation was okay but I thought this would be a real treat but it wasn't. We also had to wait over half... More

Fantastic Thai food in a gorgeous setting. A table outside is a must. Don't forget to take the Abra to/from the restaurant. More

The dishes were beyond greatness!! Very tasty and great service. Pad Thai is a lovely dish there. Great soups! Nice for couples and families. Nice to sit outside in autumn time- then you get a lovely evening breeze and can enjoy Madinat. The stay was fabulous, absolutely tremendous. The staff: Very competent and open to help and assist. They paid... More
