A very cosy beautiful restaurant. If you love coffee try the qahwa which they serve with dates. Too good. The pasta is very delish and i love their signature vinegar which they also sell. The pistachio dessert is a must try!

Very expensive cafe! The coffee was not hot and When I asked for extra hot they laughed as if I was joking … this place is for people who want to spend their money without caring about the quality or service

Starting of as a producer of gourmet dates and chocolates in 2007, Bateel has rapidly transformed into a well-known brand, loved for traditional Arabic coffee, French pastry, Mediterranean cuisine and luxury gift boxes packed with tempting goodies.Being right at the beginning of this popular neighborhood, Bateel JBR is quicker to reach than the rest of the development due to less traffic. Customers get two hours free parking at Murjan Tower 1 and there is indoor and outdoor seating with free WiFi.The menu introduces several signature dishes designed for the occasion, seasonal variations of all-time favorites and a few call backs from previous editions.The 10th anniversary menu consists of locally sourced ingredients with a focus on regional flavors rather than traditional Mediterranean cuisine. This trend is continued, adding mildly spiced curry, saffron and tabbouleh to otherwise conservative dishes.Superfood tuna salad pleasantly surprised me with a dash of roasted garlic that wasnt listed in the description but was hidden among the fresh lettuce, house-cured olives, avocados, pine nuts, cherry tomatoes and slices of beautifully pink tuna. Seasoned with light apple vinegar, it was an ideal choice for a starter as it triggered an appetite for more. Apparently it was available on the menu in the past, and if you are looking to try a completely new creation, the Bateel Palm salad is a great alternative.Lobster rigatoni made of slowly cooked Canadian lobster in light creamy curry sauce was delightfully fragrant. Fresh coriander leaves added lovely drops of green colour and perfectly balanced the zestiness of the lemon.Sea bass served on a bed of saffron risotto was tender and tasty. Large asparagus cooked in a pan added crispness and tartness to the dish.My dessert, paired with dark coffee, was made of premium beans and as delightful as the whole lunch. A Tarte Azelia greatly benefited from bits and pieces of roasted hazelnuts and the Emoji Tartelette and Passionfruit Strawberry Tart had a lovely contrast of sweetness and sourness that were just excellent.

Review β„–35

Just had an iftar with my wife at Bateel JBR. A complete waste of time and money. Service was very slow while the place was far from being crowded. But the worse was the food with overcooked (probably not very fresh) salmon and a meat ball dish that was serves cold. Frankly that was so disappointing and ended up at a pharmacy to buy gaviscon to treat our heartburn....

If its possible I would have given 0 star because when I went to jbr cafe bateel and when I stood outside to wait for the table outside where I wanted to sit and when the manager sinead saw me waiting she told a supervisor next to her who had a name tag as fatima and they started talking about me and said.what do black people have to offer So you mean bateel doesnt want black people.?

Review β„–46

I ordered a takeaway sandwich from cafe bateel in JBR and despite a 40 minute wait and flagging to several staff to enquire as to why it was taking so long they all looked disinterested and did nothing about it. After 40 minutes I asked John for a refund and he ignored me and said he would follow up on the sandwich, to which I said please cancel my order and give mea refund (as I had to leave). He was rude and refused to process the refund. At this stage Bojan the manager got involved and said he would Check on the status of the sandwich - I said I don’t want that I would prefer a refund and again I was ignored. He left and I asked another girl to just process the refund and she started the process it and Bojan came back and finally gave me a refund. Terribly run cafe with zero communication / customer service or service recovery ability. The staff look like they don’t even care as if this happens on a frequent basis.The priority in the kitchen seemed to be preparing food for delivery.

Review β„–51

The restaurent is a bit over priced. The service was so slow although the place was not crowded at all. A spoon to be replaced took 20min!! The bill had to be requested twice and also took 10 min to arrive. The waiter only recommend the most expensive two plates which was funny!The food was tasty I can’t deny that but the price and the service can be better than what it is now.

Review β„–60

The usual great menu from Cafe Bateel. The only reason for marking it down from 5 to 4 stars is that they only have limited seating outside, and the air conditioning inside is freezing.... so either come early, or bring an extra layer of clothing if you have to sit inside!

Review β„–68

While their Belgian waffles has always been my favorite, I don’t particularly like this branch at all. We went there for breakfast on two Fridays and each time, they served us cold Belgian Waffles. While the manager was apologetic and tried to compensate by offering us a free dessert, it’s a bit disappointing that for a well-known restaurant chain, their food quality is not consistent (or perhaps consistently bad). I might consider going back again, but not to this branch.

Review β„–69

A little overpriced as compared to the portion size of the food .. maybe it was a Friday when I went so the food took a good 35 to 40 min to come.. a little overwhelmed is what the staff was in general with the food orders and the service wasnt smooth at all .though the staff was very courteous but I guess in general overwhelmed..

Review β„–91

The food was fantastic. The service was not. Sparkling water served with black bits in glass. Taken away but no replacement of drink until asked. A choice of childs set menu when asked to amend was all too much making the experience overcomplicated. Resolution to buy 2 meals to appease my child. 2 tables put together. 4 place settings for 5 people. Kept having to ask for additional cutlery etc. Lots of staff. None actually great at thinking. No-one asked how our meals were. Just a shame. The standard of food was excellent. The cleanliness, wonderful. The customer service not great.
