Shabestan Restaurant

Absolutely beautiful experience! The food is authentic Iranian, masterfully made by chef Shiraz (third generation running the restaurant!). The view of the Creek and Old Dubai is incomparable. The restaurant different sections both open and closed that allow you to have a unique experience for different occasions and the decor is elegant and traditional. The food is great and here is a good indication for that: besides us, every customer in the restaurant was local! And to close with a flourish delicious Iranian sweets and tea! A big round of applause for the live musician who also helped to make it an unforgettable evening! Five stars to manager Sahar and chef Shiraz for their thoughtful preparation and friendly welcome and interaction with my guests!

I was invited to a business dinner here and can tell that the service here is top-notch! The location of the restaurant is amazing as well! I can’t comment much about price/quality but the food could be a bit better, especially the mixed grill.

I had a wonderful evening at Shabestan Restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious — perfectly grilled kebabs, fragrant saffron rice, and refreshing yogurt with cucumber. Everything was served with attention to detail and presented beautifully. The atmosphere is warm and elegant, with traditional Persian decor that adds to the cultural charm. I really appreciated the live music and cozy ambiance — it made the dinner feel extra special. Their tea and dessert platter at the end were the perfect finish to the meal. Service was excellent from start to finish — polite, welcoming, and attentive. Definitely worth the Michelin recognition proudly displayed at the entrance. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience high-quality Persian cuisine in a relaxing, refined setting.

Wow. The standard of Persian food here is amazing. Flavour extraction from the vegetable sides is masterful and the leaner cuts of meat such as the chicken breast kebab dish are sooo tender and flavourful. Staff are fast and friendly. Great for a special dinner as the atmosphere is lovely. Highly recommend. Will be back for sure.

Shabestan is one of the best & oldest Iranian restaurants in Dubai! I personally love this branch more than the other one (mostly because of the beautiful view🌊) It is our go-to spot for cozy family dinners. The service is always great, and I especially love how their bread is served fresh and crispy & the fact that they keep replacing it whenever it cools down (a critical part in enjoying iranian breads) Anis, one of the longest-serving waiters there, is incredibly respectful and accommodating! I highly recommend visiting with a big group & ordering the mixed grill; it’s the best way to try a bit of everything and enjoy the full experience! ALSO, don’t miss out on their black tea with mint; its the perfect way to end the meal 🤰☕️

Best Persian food in Dubai, if you looking for authentic Iranian cuisine here is your destination. The ingredients are top notch, recommended dish are Ash-Reshteh, Kebab-fillet, and Bagli polo - mahichi.

This Iranian restaurant, located inside Radisson Blu Hotel by Dubai Creek, offers an elegant dining experience with a stunning view 🌊🏨. The food is authentic and flavorful, with saffron-infused desserts served as a lovely complimentary treat 🍮✨ The table setup is beautiful 🍽️, and the service is top-notch 🤝. Highly recommended for a refined Persian meal in Dubai ⭐️🇦🇪.

I had a wonderful dining experience at Shabestan, as always! The food was delicious and served fresh, and the staff were very welcoming and attentive. A special thanks to Anis, who went above and beyond to make our visit enjoyable, his hospitality made us feel genuinely special. Their Ash was 10/10 , it's rare to find such authentic Ash, especially at that time. I also really appreciated the generous complimentary touches, including fresh bread, salad, yogurt, tea, and traditional Iranian sweets served with the tea. Shabestan has always been one of my favorite Iranian restaurants, and once again, they did not disappoint. Highly recommended!
