I have to say that we enjoyed the location as it straight in front of the Duba fountains. The food is terrible...to improve the speed they cook and then they heat it up when it is ordered. We took a starter and 1 minute late the main came. I ended up sending back to main. Unfortunately it came back again... More

I went there with my daughter and I ordered Cesar salad with shrimps. it was a bunch of lettuce leafs and with some cold and tired shrimps thrown on it. They tasted very bad. No salad dressing. I had to chase the waiter to bring me some olive oil or a dressing for the leafs... The ice tea had a... More

this is a nice restaurant to try, it is located in the Dubai mall. I ate the north pacific king crabs' legs there and the taste were simply perfect. I was happy and satisfied with the service and the waiter ( Khan) was so polite and helpful to us. I would really recommend a visit to this restaurant. You also... More

This is the place you go only once. The menu is basically a repetition of the same Lobster, shrimp and scallop with small variations of sides. The plate was fairly presented, but it all tasted nothing. The lobster, the shrimps and the scallops had all the same boiled food feel. Totally tasteless. The staff was visibly not happy, and few...

I generally lke the Darden's Red Lobsters. I have eaten in some truly good one in the Baltimore/Washington area. So we decided to try the local version. At the end, when I was paying, the server asked, "well, how does it compare to USA?" I replied, not good. Service was good and timely. The problem was that the lobster I... More

I love trying out different restaurants in Dubai, and have experienced the best (Buddha Bar, Rhodes 2010, Nobu-Atlantis and Seafire-Atlantis to name a few), as well as some really good "cheap" places (PF Changs, Outback Steakhouse and the More Cafe), to the really shocking (well only the Red Lobster falls into this category). Food: Overcooked, undercooked, dry, mushy and tasteless... More

It was an immediate post-holiday, let's-go-somewhere-familiar dinner option as my daughters were here from University in the States and wanted some seafood. After living in the Gulf area for 15 years, we knew the hit-or-miss-ness of local seafood purveyors, so opted for the chain that made their name with good seafood. If this was a typical example, a name change... More

I had the unfortunate experience of being taken to this restaurant for a birthday treat. Naturally expecting a lot from a seafood restaurant due to the hype but alas this place failed miserably. We were seated very promptly but then left to our own devices for far too long. Our food came late and our drinks came even later. To... More

Thoroughly disappointing! Having heard so much about red lobster, I decided to check it out. Services was fantastic and flawless. I just wish I could say so about the food. It was bland and tasteless. Absolutely nothing special about the food whatsoever! More
