Reem Al Bawadi

Dubai Marina & Palm Jumeirah


This is the prettiest branch of a local chain serving regional faves in a dimly lit, endearingly over-the-top Arabian Nights setting complete with costumed waiters. The spacious terrace is ideal for kicking back with a shisha while keeping tabs on the marina action. It's near Spinneys supermarket.
