Having lived and dined in Dubai For 18 months I have been fortunate to eat in some wonderful restaurants, the Seafood Market is not one of them. With the staff up... More

Having been a regular since this place opened, I've been recently disappointed with the overall experience. The last 3 visits have proved that the standards are slipping. Have now given up giving it the benefit of the doubt and will not go back. Philip and Stan wake up ! More

I went there based on the recommendation I see here, and that I have been a several of the similar Seafood Markets in Manila, Bangkok, etc. All have been very good experiences. I normally don’t post any reviews, as I have found most reviews to be close to my actual experience. However, I feel the need to post my review... More

My trip to Dubai would never be complete without a stop at the Seafood market located in the Meridian Hotel, opposite Dubai Int'l Airport. The concept is simple. A hostess takes you to a buffet filled with all types of fresh, and LIVE seafood items. Followed by another buffet of vegetables, and finally wine. You choose your items, the cooking... More

Have eaten in this restaurant over many years, I was very disappointed to find it just losing that extra special feel that it has always had in the past. Choices and food still excellent, but the place is looking tired and needs some tlc More

I love this restaurant. Service is very good and the quality of the seafood is great. From the live fish in tanks to the fresh fish on ice - you select what you want and then choose one of the many different ways for the chefs to cook it. Not cheap but worth it for a special treat. More

It is one of the oldest seafood market style restaurants in Dubai but still one of the best. They serve fresh and excellent seafood like the Lobster Lemon Butter or the Szechwan Prawns. You can select your fresh fish or shellfish and chose the style of cooking from the menu and in no time you get the food. This is... More

I had an expatriate position in Yemen from 1998 thru 2003. Whenever passing through Dubai, I always made it a point to stop at the airport Meridien's Seafood Market restaurant. I found myself back in Dubai June 2011 and knew I must make a return trip to my world's favorite restaurant. I was strongly hoping things hadn't changed much in... More
