Consistently great food, amazing service and an all you can eat offer you must try!I would also like to mention, that I have previously tried the Media City Circle Cafe, and i much preferred the Studio city one. The portions are smaller, therefore you have a chance of tasting more dishes, rather than feeling full from only 1.The service is excellent, they listen and bring your food in a timely manner. The team seems to work in great harmony. ( This was also different in the other circle cafe).The food is not just great for the price it exceeds expectations.Truly has to be tried, especially as breakfast is a bargain on the weekends.

It is one of my favourite places around Studio city. The service needs some attention, you may have to call the staff few times before they come. The food is always great and vibrant. The prices can be expensive without discounts from discount apps. However, with all of that being said, its still one of my favourite places because its convenient to find a park and to find vegan/vegetarian options.

I love it! Very nice vibe to it, and the staff are all so friendly and welcoming. The food is really good too, and Id recommend the all-you-can-eat breakfast!

Very nice layout, good vibe with reading corner. Can be quite quiet on Friday evenings. Relaxing and nice staff that are visible and friendly.

A good place for a weekend brunch, good food and all you can eat for 65AED. Staff is friendly but the only thing is the service speed which is painstakingly slow. Portions are small so if you know what you line, order all savory plates in one shot and when you are half way eating, order the dessert... otherwise à good place to eat

Loved the place. Its in Studio city so you have a 2 hour free parking window. Loved the avocado toast with sourdough bread and eggs - it has a delightful flavor and a dash of lime with brings out a wonderful taste and a cold Spanish latte to go with it. If you are just a couple, try and get the corner seat near the window.for big groups theres a comfy sofa seat.

Its my first time visiting this area. I was actually looking for a cozy place to eat my breakfast. Voila! I saw this cafe. The all-you-can-eat breakfast is superb for a foodie like me. The staff are very accommodating - great customer service especially to Ms. Rachel who assisted me during my visit. Please look for her, shell absolutely recommend you all the best on their menu. Must visit!

Love their all you can eat breakfast buffet for AED 57 (inc. VAT). I never seem to stuff myself the way I want to because I fill up too fast.I’d suggest you go with an empty belly ready to inhale all the options in the menu. You have all day - 8am to 5pm on weekends.My favorite was the French toast with butterscotch bananas and sliced almond.

Place is very busy. Food is average with small portions and staff is very rude. Furniture is dirty and tables are shaking. I get that it might be the value for money for the “eat all you can” for breakfast for 60 AED, but the whole experience is terrible ☹️

We are regulars to Circle cafe and over many years have introduced this restaurant to many of our friends who in turn became veterans too. However, last Friday our breakfast experience was a disaster. With higher popularity, I guess the staff is not able to cope. Their attitude becomes unfriendly and the FOOD! The food was just not anything like the brand Circle Cafe stands for. Till this experience we believed the chefs there cook with much love and passion but last Friday shattered our faith in this restaurant and it’s chefs, service and quality of food. When customers stops getting valued, no matter how attractive the offer is, it will slowly start going downhill. So request the management of Circle cafe to train the staff to work under pressure and keep providing customers with the brand standards.

Average experience. Average seating. Food is above average. I ordered orange juice and omelet with cheese. The omelet was good bit the orange juice was horrible (seems to be old). I replaced the juice with coffee, and came one year later. The stuff were friendly in general.

The all you can eat breakfast option is a good deal,the pancakes were delicious. It gets busy really quickly so it is better to go early.It is not particularly family friendly, the toilets didnt have changing facilities for babies and there wasnt an area for children to play around. The staff was nice and it was good value for money.

Great food. But possibly the worst online and delivery experience available today. The user experience of the website is poor and requires a lot of work to complete an order. I order from them regularly and at least 50% of the time I wait +1,5hrs for delivery. Good food, just lacks the basics of consumer journey and experience.

The all you can eat a lá carte brunch on weekends is epic. Great, healthy food choices, really proper coffee, solid menu in every way. Its one of the best deals in the area. Pro diner tip: Get there early to avoid a 30 minute wait for a table.

Review №29

Breakfast all you can eat deal is very good. The negativity about this place is their AC. They ALWAYS keep the air condition on full blast freezing cold….WHY? It makes it very uncomfortable to sit and try and enjoy your breakfast. We asked staff to reduce the AC flow but they never did.

The quality of the food changed drastically! The portions became smaller and not that good. And most of the times they confuse the orders.Last time I went with my husband, we wanted to get the all you can eat breakfast, and we had 10 minutes to order before the deal finished.I told the host that we knew what to order since we used to go there almost every weekend, so we can do it quickly but they refused to serve us and alleged that the deal was over (when we still had time to order) and told us that we needed a reservation (there were literally 3 tables occupied, the rest all free!) They were super rude, what a way to care for your long time customers! We’re never coming back, their loss... if I could leave 0 stars I would!

I love how they abide by their tag line... Circle serves Simple Good Food. I am a regular at this particular branch and over the years have tried most of the items on their menu - my all time favorite being the Salmon Sashimi, Steak Salad, French Toast and the Four Layer Chocolate Cake. Consistency is their forte. The staff are very nice and considerate. Overall a great place to dine.

Been coming to one of the Circle Cafes in Dubai pretty much every weekend for 5 years. In recent times the servings have gotten much smaller, quality had dropped, prices increased - essentially giving patrons much less value for money. I get its been Covid, but do you think screwing over your loyal customers is the right way to go and recover?

Met some friends here for lunch and it is a great little place to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the lunch crowd. I had the Mexican eggs which were good but could have used some improvements. My lunch partners had the Mexican salad and said it was the best salad on the menu. Service was good

Came today for all day breakfast with prior booking.There were empty reserved tables but they wanted to us to wait for a table that was occupied. Of course when we informed them about the empty table, they quickly accommodated our request.We had a cappuccino and it was okay.I started with English breakfast and it was awful. Cold and unappealing. I finished the dish because I was hungry.My girlfriend ordered huevos rancheros and she was happy with her choice. Also, she ordered a yogurt bowl and it was tasty, but very small.Because I wasnt satisfied with my previous choice, I ordered Asian chicksilog and it took 20 minutes to be delivered. A sign that it was freshly made.It was worth the wait. Very tasty and rich dish.Overall an average food experience and the service was fine.

Great place for a relaxed breakfast. 65aed for adults and 35aed for kids provides a decent menu with good selection and quality. If you expecting an extra large English breakfast, you might be a bit disappointed... but hey.. its all you can eat.. just order one more. The halloumi bagel with avocado is a must try.

Lots of healthy options to choose from. Portions are big. Tried their Super Bowl, Salmon Teriyaki, and Chicken Katsu Curry and all of them were pretty good! Their desserts are also to die for. Specially their Oreo Mousse and Chocolate Salted Caramel Cake.

With a deal like this it shouldnt have been a surprise there was a queue to get a table. The wait was not long but the waiter did explain the food may take longer than normal. No issue when explained. The coffee was good and I enjoyed the breakfast bowl. Id probably steer clear of the big breakfast in future and try something else. It was just ok. Ill be back.

Review №62

Used to be most lovely place for breakfast on weekend. Suddenly Circle cafe brought down them standards: furniture is dirty even if ita about washing covers for sofa, tables shaking. Its about furnishing. But service also dropped down, you can wait 10 minutes just to get menu. Food serving fast but portions became so small that visitors who coming time to time definitely can notice that:) anyway Circle its lovely place for healthy diet, just hope they will recover this small points soon:)

Food is good. But thats it, the whole experience is awful, I called them to ask but the lady who answered does not talk well. I arrived there and it seems I should have reservation, yet when I raised my voice I was given a table in another place. I asked the waiter for option and he completely lost, and never answered my question. The waiters need a lot of training, I had a similar experience in DMC branch

Review №66

We came here for breakfast which has a very reasonable price of 60AED per person for all you can eat. (Fridays and Saturdays)The seating on the terrace is nice that’s why we decided to sit there.Unfortunately the service is really bad. We waited 20 minutes until hubby got up and asked for someone to come. We’ve then been told “they’re busy inside”.Generally it seems they rather focus on Deliveroo, Talabat, etc. than on the guests who are physically there.And besides that, the food is really only average and nothing special. If you’re a vegan, you only have 4 options. So yea, there are definitely better places in the area.

Review №67

The food is amazing that’s why we keep coming back.. however the service at this branch is extremely bad.. I observed several errors not only with my order but 3 different tables around us..Sooo much waste due to basic mistakes.. Staff need to be more attentive to customers basic requests..• Asking for salt and pepper (more than once)• asking for cutlery over and over• incorrect orders served at our tableAnd small things that makes a big difference to ones overall experience..

The worst service! Booked a table for breakfast, arrived early and our table had been given away, waited 20 mins to be seated, a further 30 mins for our coffee and a further 20 mins for our food, most of which was missing from the order, then they proceeded to bill us for stuff theyd forgotten to bring to the table. Will never go back, the only reason Im giving the 2 stars is because the food was nice.

Review №71

The food was amazing pre-covid and this was our first time going back to Circle Cafe after the lockdown. The dishes had shrunk and in some cases for a good reason as they were far too big to finish, so at least there is less food waste. Our first order took a long time to arrive but then there were five of us and the cafe was very busy. I would go back but I wouldnt order the tuna bagel as it was too spicy.

They have really good deal for breakfast ALL YOU CAN EAT FOR AED 60 .......... but they are unable to deal this pressure on weekends as it was houseful with ppl waiting outside and we waited for our food for 40min and that too was served with wrong dish and again more wait time and wanted to order some more items but the servers were not even looking at us so we can ask for something else so and as it was totally full to its capacity we can imagine about the COVID 19 related concerns 🙄

Went on Saturday around 9am and it got busy quite quickly. I had the 55 AED All You Can Eat Breakfast option, available Fridays and Saturdays. The service was pretty slow but the staff were nice enough. The food selection was very vast (around 20 options), lots of things available, and the food was really delicious. Highlights were the Greek yoghurt bowl and the Elvis Waffle. Serving sizes are nice and small so you can try a lot of different dishes. I will absolutely be back without a doubt. Great value for money and would definitely recommend.

First time at circle cafe. Safe to say itll be my last.Staff are not welcoming. Not even a smile I understand they are working on a Saturday but its their job.Possibly the hardest toast known to man. You could build a house with it. Food was cold and then we had to wait 5 minutes for cutlery. Disappointed to say the least.Completely mislead by other reviews. I will not be returning.

This is a great place to go and have healthy good food at all times of the day. The coffee is excellent if on the premium side. They do a weekend brunch where you have all you can eat and kids for free and its super cheap, you just pay for extra coffee. Well worth going. Katsu chicken curry being my favourite menu item.

Review №91

Awful customer service. I am a regular customer who has had enough and won’t be returning.On the weekend, there is often a wait for a table. Happy to wait but more often than not, you aren’t welcomed at the door and on one occasion we were asked to wait in the building next door when we were quite happy standing at the door. It feels like you’re an inconvenience to the honest. Not even a smile or ‘sorry it’s busy, would you mind waiting?’They also cram the tables in so you feel like you’re in a bloody zoo and the service is slow. If they can’t deal with the level of customers on the weekend, they either need to hire more staff or stop doing the weekend offer. It’s not worth the weekend deal - go and spend your money elsewhere!
