Arabian Tea House Restaurant & Cafe - Al Fahidi, Dubai

When we arrived, we hadn’t made a reservation, and seeing how crowded the place was honestly made me a bit nervous. I thought we would have to wait in a long line. We went on a weekend with my husband, so we expected it to be busy, but surprisingly, the restaurant had a very fast and well-organized flow. Everything was managed smoothly and professionally. The staff were extremely efficient, and the waiters served quickly and attentively. Even though the place was very crowded, we didn’t have to wait long at the entrance. After placing our order, the food also arrived much faster than we expected, which was a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, breakfast service had already ended by the time we arrived, so we ordered some breakfast-style dishes instead. The hummus was absolutely delicious, the salad was fresh and flavorful, and the bread was excellent. Overall, everything we tried was very tasty and satisfying. If I had to mention one small disappointment, it would be that I wish the breakfast hours were longer. If they extended the breakfast time, I would be even happier because I would love to experience their full breakfast menu next time.

Went here with my family for lunch, the restaurant have a unique theme/decor, with the floors being small stones and the interior is like a hut/treehouse. The food was not bad, we had this flatbread which was similar to prata, together with some curry, fresh salad, chicken biryani, kebab and pea sauce as condiments. It's really a midden east style kind of food which is something uncommon to me as I'm an asian foreigner. For dessert, they served dates with peanut suace and this sugar glazed donut balls, also with peanut sauce to dip and pair with, both was super good! Highly recommend if u want to try their local cuisine!!

Beautiful experience and lunch dining with authentic arabic flavours and fresh food. A few little moments lost in translation but nothing to spoil our experience just a few different drinks arrived after ordering. Lovely people and place. Kids meals are spot on! Good understanding and offering of gluten free options.

I had Arabian special tea (33 AED) Line & mint juice (39 AED). The Arabian special tea was good. Unlike the tea we get in India this didn't have the natural bitter taste. And having the tea black (without any milk) was definitely good. The service was very responsive and helpful. The ambience was really good. It was an authentic traditional unique arabic ambience. Overall a good experience!

Travelled from the US and was in search of an Arabian Restaurant and found this GEM!! 😍💎 Food and service were both amazing. The whole setup of the restaurant is perfect for photos and so super cute. I will be back everytime I visit Dubai… A must go. I had dinner but also heard the breakfast is great too.. Also loved my tea experience as well. Thank you and see you next time.

This isn’t my first time at Arabian Tea House, and it’s always a great experience. The atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing, and the food and tea are consistently good. The service is excellent, friendly and welcoming every time. Highly recommended when visiting Old Dubai!

We had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, well-presented, and served fresh. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable. A special thanks to our waitress Rashmi…she was extremely polite, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. Her service truly enhanced our dining experience. Thank you Rashmi !

A great restaurant to visit if you find yourself in Al Fahidi. Food was delicious, fresh and a decent portion. Staff were friendly and helpful even though the restaurant was quite full they still took the time to recommend dishes and explain the menu. Thank you! I know a lot of people don't like bones, but the lamb was so tender it easily came off and I was able to get the marrow from the bones which I love! Highly recommend! Would love to return next time I'm in Dubai.
