Just got back from a very delightful all you can eat Korean BBQ special from Sonamu. Quality of meat, service and atmosphere were all top notch. We will be back. One challenge is finding parking, since the underground parking is relatively small and very, very tight (good luck with a large SUV). Anyway, I cant wait to come back to try other a la carte dishes!
Are you a fan of Korean series? Have you drooled while watching the characters eating Kimchi, Jajangmyeon etc... Then u should visit this place and try out their variety menu... Walk thru ur Korean food fantasy at this place. Just loved the experience and the food was yum. The customer service was really heartwarming and we enjoyed the evening so much... Try it out...

Unfortunately have to give 3 stars. First thing is that ok, its located inside the hotel but there should be a sign directing you to the restaurant....I was wondering around the lobby until I just asked a guest of the hotel. The reception just didnt mind me walking around there.The food is just ok...not worth travelling all the way from Marina...The service was polite and nice though....they made my dinner nice
Sonamu is a very authentic Korean restaurant and the official catering partner at the Korean Pavillion for EXPO2020. Thier beef BBQ dishes are out of this world and the service is great. Our server Kevin was a perfect professional and also cooked our meat with great skill. We will definitely be back!
Every time I have visited Sonamu with family and friends,it was a great experience-mostly because of the warm welcome by the staff. They make us feel “at home”.In addition-beautiful ambience,great menu,quick and great service.Very clean and I will be back. Special thanks to their wonderful team who made me and my mother feel lik vip’s. I am so grateful,and definitely it’s one of my most preferred spots in Dubai for a great dinner! Special thanks to Melissa,Jin,Kevin,Lemwell,Kristian,Kristel! Wonderful team and definitely will be back because of all of them!
Have you ever considered trying Korean Cuisine? My niece is a big fan of Korean famous Bank BTS and due to her love for BTS she got into knowing Korean cuisine. She recommended us to try and find some authentic best Korean restaurant in Dubai. We started our research and eventually found out Sonamu. Why Sonamu? Because James (The Head Chef) has served the VIPs of Korea and definitely he is no joke.This was our first ever expereince of Korean food and before I go into detail of food I must tell you after Thai, Korean cuisine has become one of my favourite due to their unique cooking techniques.We started of with Starters like Salmon Salad, Tofu with Kimchi, kimbap (Korean Sushi). Every thing served really had those flavors which we needed to understand the true culture of Korea. Then we moved to mains where we tried Black Cod which was just perfect, the Tkeokbokki which was good but it was difficult for us to chew rice cake and finally the show stopper which we were waiting for the whole night The famous Korean Bbq. We are not joking when we tell you that their Korean BBQ was the most delicious bbq I ever had, their beef briskets were simply amazing and we would want to have it over and over again.We would definitely rate it a 5 star based on their tasty and high quality food with the true flavours of Korea, the vibrant ambiance and friendly people serving you.
From value to customer service. Thumbs up
Amazing deal and amazing food. Friendly staff. Japanese BBQ best
When it comes to Far East Asian food, Chinese or Japanese is the option which comes to our mind naturally. But Korean cuisine is definitely a superior choice and if you are looking for an authentic Korean barbeque, Sonamu is something you should consider. It will spoil you with choices. Must try would be the Galbi, you will definitely come back for more!!! Weekends (Thursdays & Fridays) you are in for a treat with a Grand Buffet and it is truly worth the money. The service is a bit slow. Enjoy this delicious trip to Korea!
Food was really good, but I hope they have what they are offering before
I loved the hardworking staff in the restaurant and the food is amazing....i called them rich in hospitality in a way !
Great food, good service, a bit expensive
First Korean restaurant visited in Dubai and it was excellent. We ordered the live BBQ at the table with short ribs and rib-eye meats, seafood pancake and everything tasted amazing, plus all the side dishes you get with the meal. Highly recommend the location. The house was very nice and I was able to enjoy a fresh draft Kirin...Will definitely return here again.
Fantastic bbq and surely value for money, very reasonably priced.The meats are just so great and all the sides too. Very good staff and great ambience.
I just had the most satisfying Korean bbq meal at Sonamu. We ordered the eat all you can meat korean bbq, the quality of the raw meat that was served was very impressive. The appetizers were amazingly tasty. Service was impeccable, Andro looked after us so well, even the restaurant manager was on his toes the whole time serving the clients. I think this is going to be our new favorite Korean restaurant in Dubai!
One of the best restaurants ever, and I love the customer service especially Gar and Kristyan. I honestly never tried this much amazing authentic Korean restaurant. I would definitely come again.
Amazing place for kbbq! Highly reccomended! Our server Gar was really nice and helped us alot with the cooking process as we are new to this food! Ask for him!!!
The overall restaurant quality is amazing. Once I stepped inside, I found the atmosphere to be very welcoming!I also like how the staff are very polite and nice.Specially Mister Kevin and Miss Krystel.Id like to let more people know about this restaurant, because the food is healthy, and has a wide range of dishes to pick from.I 100% would love to come back here.
SONAMU is the luxurioust restaurant in DUBAI. If you have valuable customers to take care of or foreign friends want to eat Korean FoodIt is right place to be recommend strongly
Good experience eating here good atmosphere the food is nice the service is good especially you gar,keven and Kristen
Kinda worst experience 😕 service was so ok as compare to their prices food was OK portion of meat was too small not even good for one person thats a huge disappointment 😑we ordered 3 portion of meat and it came around 8-10 thin slices for about 400dhs so thats too much in my opinion!
Ambiance is great. Nice food.. staff are very polite and proactive specially Kevin. Planning to dine again soon.
Amazed with Sonamu. Authentic Korean food. I did not feel like I was in Dubai, it literally did take us to Seoul. Thank you James (🧑🍳), Kevin and everyone for an awesome service.
Very nice restaurant. The food was authentic Korean and the staff Melissa and Ralph and others were very good
Great food, excellent service..A must try
Amazing taste and exquisite menu.Great ambience and service.Common tables as well as private cabins.Staff very courteous and professional.

Very nice
Is very good korean food & live GRILL
Superb quality place
Best Korean dish and very affordable.
Real korean restaurant in Dubai with well organised atmosphere
Good place to visit if you are looking for Korean Food. The staff was very polite and helpful in choosing the dishes. Good value for money also
Nice decorated
Good working movers Packers in Dubai
Good circumstance to enjoy your food and nice staffs, but the taste of plate for foods has been lowered day by day...I am not sure it is because of the change of the chef, or any other reasons... I clearly feel that the plates are now not the ones I experienced before in Sonamu.
Good option if youre staying at the hotel, otherwise better to venture out.The breakfast buffet is good with vast choices of continental to Asian options.For lunch and dinner hours, its best to avoid the meat grills as their grill plates are not cleaned well and burnt flakes gets stuck to the meat.Avoid the Shrimp tempura, 7 pieces for AED 75!
Great ambiance Great service - The best authentic Korean Restaurant in town.
Amazing food and service ... highly recommended
We ordered korean bbq set menu and food portion is just disappointing. Left with hungry belly and disappointment. Service isn’t as good as what I expected
Fantastic restaurant and a great experience for us
Sophisticated interior design!!! I love! Service was a bit slow. But when the food came, it was amazing!!! Korean BBQ, side dishes - all I came for were fulfilled. We highly recommend this place. Specially for group of people. This can be a good place as the place is vast.
Wonderful
5 star is for the hospitality and food
Good food - try the Tuna Tataki.
Beautifully designed restaurant, decor is 5 stars. Amazing and authentic Korean food in Dubai. The menu has a vast selection of individual dishes however if you cannot make up your mind, you can go for the set menu that has everything (starters, main, deserts). You can also opt for the Korean BBQ. Ive always wanted to try it and might do so in my next trip there. Highly recommended!!
Very good Korean food
If anyone is thinking of Korean food or Korean barbeque, Sonamu is the first name that comes to mind. Reasonably priced and good food. The only downside is its distance from new Dubai, but well worth the trip for the food.
The service was really something else. Everybody is genuinely happy to help and the overall atmosphere is great. The food is really really good and fresh. Definetly worth the price.
Very taste and right place for Korean foods
Nice and relaxing place so quite the food is good even little bit expensive but worth it..they are friendly they give you good service espicially, Rena and two waiters i forgot the names....highly recommended this authentic korean bbq...
Korean food at its best. Lovely atmosphere. Attentive staff. Always a pleasure to dine here
It is great place from my first impression, I had only one dinner there, and planning to go there couple of times before giving my final verdict.
Great food!
Ambience is good
Amazing restaurant with great quality
Great place. Best Korean in town!
Excellent food, service and value for money! Good place for dates & groups.
Tastes good and the ambience is really nice. The price is the only thing that holds me from giving 5 stars.
