Taverna Greek Kitchen - Souk Madinat Jumeirah

“The food was very delicious, rich in flavors, and served in generous portions. We really enjoyed it a lot. However, our Egyptian waiter talked too much about trivial stories, which made things awkward. Instead of enjoying the meal, it became annoying. Other than that, the lunch was perfect

The food here is truly exceptional. Some of my standout favourites include the sea bass carpaccio, grilled octopus, mixed grill, and the perfectly cooked lamb chops. On our recent visit, the chef made a personal appearance at the tables, offering tailored recommendations that completely exceeded our expectations. This thoughtful gesture added a warm, personal touch to an already outstanding dining experience. Highly recommended for both the quality of cuisine and the impeccable hospitality.

⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a wonderful experience at Taverna Restaurant this Saturday. Our waiter, Jimmy, provided absolutely amazing service from start to finish. He was attentive, friendly, and made us feel very welcome. His recommendation for dessert was perfect — the highlight of our visit! Thank you, Jimmy, for making our evening so enjoyable. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Taverna Greek Kitchen at Souk Madinat Jumeirah offers a warm, authentic Greek dining experience in a picturesque setting. Situated along the waterfront promenade, the restaurant provides both indoor and outdoor seating with views of the tranquil waterways and the iconic Burj Al Arab. The ambiance combines rustic charm with modern elegance, featuring illuminated arches and a visible charcoal grill that adds to the lively atmosphere. Unfortunately little bit noisy with only 6/7 tables, I can’t imagine it was full. Workers are really good and they make you comfortable. We captured the ambiance and dishes in photos and videos to give you a better sense of what to expect. Take a look before you visit.

Splendid and superior Greek Restaurant, the atmosphere is amazing 🤩 and food is amazing, we like everything there, we had a great time, service is fantastic too , appetizer and salads are fabulous, you can take the boat from jumairah hotel to it or from Al qaser hotel. I highly recommend it 🥰😍

This restaurant has a beautiful setting and atmosphere. The quality of the food is very good but unfortunately the quantity was lower than what would be expected in comparison to other similar places - for example, only one skewer of chicken as a main dish. Very friendly and attentive staff and lovely traditional Greek wine. I’d recommend it but I think they need to increase the size of some of their dishes.

It was great to try such good Greek dishes outside of Greece! Extremely delicious! The risotto is the best from another planet and goes so well with the meat! Also, their desserts are excellent! It is impossible not to visit if you are in Dubai, as the atmosphere of the area is so unique! Thank you for the impeccable service and for the good impression we left on our Italian friends! Special thanks to the head chef Rouvas and Panos in the service who were there for all our needs! Highly recommended!

Loved this place. The food was super delicious and their menu has a wide variety of greek dishes. They serve first a complimentary pita bread with olives, super delicious. The service was perfect and the seating is just amazing. I did not quite enjoyed the fries but other than that, I loved everything
