We were so impressed. The food was impeccable, but the treatment took the entire experience to an absolutely new level. Our family was taken such a great care of, and my son’s allergies were well catered for. Nothing was too much to ask for the chef and his team. Aleksandra and others were always there to help and to friendly chat. An absolute delight, we can’t wait to go back!

A very expensive and cozy place.ambience is good and the aminities as well. But food is not that tasty for the price we pay. It is located inside kempinsky hotel in mall of Emirates. There is an entrance from main road where you can do vallet parking. There is an entrance from inside mall of Emirates near ski Dubai as well.Drinks and bar counter availableCustomer service is really good

Great friendly staff but food quality is very low. Musakhan and mixed grill was a total disappointment. Tried much better ones in much cheaper restaurants.

Visited here for their special Christmas Eve Buffet with my brothers, and we sure had an exceptional time!The Buffet spread with a variety of meats, seafood, bread, cold mezze and salads Hmmm , was an exceptional feast to devour on. The presentation of everything was so well made!The dessert section was yet another wonder with many options, from a section of Arabic delights, chocolate fountains and many Christmas favourites.With it’s lovely ambience and live music, it was an evening to remember!

Nice food, insanely expensive beer with no draft.

Lovely Friday Brunch. Good food, live music, and friendly service. Meriem, Eliza, and Faraj have been outstanding hosts

Food was delicious. Great entertainment with an Iraqi singer. He was very talented. The server was a Moroccan young guy. Very nice, friendly and professional. We gave him a good tip cose he really deserved it. But the food was just excellent and of great quality. Everything was perfect so 5 stars well deserved. Congrats!

Top of the class fine dining arabic restaurant. Service is slightly slow. But food is exceptionally good.Most of the items were the best in its class in dubai.I had a dinner here with a set menu following a medical seminar in the hotel, sponsored by the organisers.The set menu had all the mid eastern classics. I dont know the names of them.The restaurant is huge. Decorated in a soft and silent way. No loud colours. Soft understated ambience. Total privacy. Total high class. Tabling was great. Plating was superb.Servers were extremely well behaved.I specially loved the Meat with rice item, which is prepared in a reverse manner. Chicken liver. Shrimps. Salads. Even the thin pizzas were lovely. The barbcued kababs specially with minced meat was divine. The kunafa was considered one of the best in Dubai , by my Arabic colleague.

Located inside the Kempinski Mall of the Emirates hotel, we had an excellent breakfast at Olea. The inside area was very nicely decorated and there was also the option of the outdoor terrace. There was a great selection, including eggs of your choice and a huge range of hot and cold food, healthy options and a live pancake station. The highlight was the staff who were very engaging and friendly. We left very well fed after a superb breakfast.

Its impossible to not fall in love with this place. Amaziiiing food. Amazing!!! Service is also good. Colors. Hygiene. Open bufe is wooww . Try it untill u r alive :)))

Excellent Service, especially the Mixed Grill was great. Try the Smoked Mutabal it is an experience by itself.

Be careful! They defraud on a Bill!Also management is useless. Unable to solve an issue!Waiters were nice though.

Wonderfull place coffee & restaurant. Very kind & helpful employees thanks special to Hani & Said

Very delicious food, great ambiance and friendly staff.

The food is nice, and price is fair as the quality is good, but the iftar set menu is huge and rather a obscene, the amount of food is too much and there is about 90% waste this is not with the ethos of the holy month of Ramadan and actually totally opposite. I was embarrassed to waste so much food, we are both large menu who came for the set menu.

Very had service. Waiters they don’t care customers and also very expensive fir the service is under zero I don’t recommend at all you will get upset the worst service I have ever seen

It was a very nice experience on a rooftop of Kempinski. So happy there is a place where you can have nice shisha after enjoying your shopping day. Definitely, will be visiting ot more often.

We have been coming to Olea for several years now and it has become an essential part of our every visit to Dubai.We are big fans of Lebanese cuisine however this place takes that experience a level up.First, the food is absolutely amazing. I love hummus and have been eating it for over 30 years now and this is by far the best place where I have enjoyed it. It comes served as El Hummus with three different varieties (spicy, picante and traditional) and honestly all three of them are amazing. We enjoyed it so much that we had thank the chef who made it (If I am not mistaken Mr. Hawiad). The other food is breathtaking as well, such as spicy fish, lamb chops and lamb kebab.The other aspect is the service. Since our first visit we were fortunate to be taken care of by Mr. Mohamed who simply makes you feel at home and every suggestion for choice of food was spot on. We have not been coming to Dubai for over a year die to Covid19 but when we visited Olea the other day and having him welcome us made us feel like we are home. One big thank you Mohamed.

Tastiest food (Levantine, Ottoman cuisine) and nice interior, location. Friendly staff. Although the place is spacious they found solution to separate tables with help of lighting and decor screens so you still can feel cozy. We loved the food and service so much we visited the place for a few days in a row and kept discovering new tastes. Chicken liver in hot pomegranate sauce is absolute must-have. We had take-away food, it was securely packed and there was a sticker indicating exact time and date the food was cooked, I believe for food safety reasons. 👍

I would like to share my experience in this restaurant - it was last Friday evening.So I went with 2 friends around 9 pm and we sat outside and we ordered water (mentioning that we are very thirsty), cocktails and a shishaThe restaurant both inside and outside was 90% empty.We kept asking for water several times. Another waiter came and asked us what we ordered ... so zero coordination between them .... and its not like the place was busy. So during this time nothing came, no drinks, no water no shahs and btw the shahs guy was just roaming around bored ...Anyway we decided to leave frustrated and still thirsty after 20 min and we shifted to Sheraton in MOE where we had a MUCH better treatment. So I guess never going back to Olea again ...

Good food and cozy environment

Amazing food all the times for the past two years been visiting for trainings.Friendly hospitality

We enjoyed amazing super tasty dinner hosted with Chef Sudqi Naddaf , Executive Chef💞💞💞💞💞💞

We reserved expecting a solid Lebanese restaurant. What we experienced as so much better than that. First of all, there are many dishes from Arabic countries other than Lebanon on the menu, and we tasted many - each dish was a pure pleasure. The mutabal brought to the table with the cherry wood smoke still under the cover was perhaps the highlight - what flavor! Kalb and the two wonderful Moroccan waiters gave us explanations demonstrating a complete knowledge of all the attention the chefs had put into the preparation of this feast. Also, the prices were quite reasonable, all things considered. Thanks to the whole team for a wonderful evening.

Good place

Olea is tha fantasticIts very beautiful

Great food, nice ambience and good outdoor area. Shisha available. The best kebabs served! Service is average but still highly recommended.

Superb!

I love the place, it is very cosy, the service was amazing especially Meriam. Thumbs up to you.

Great place, nice atmosphere and vibe. Food was great as well. We were a table of 30 for a family occasion and were not disappointed.

Amazing food!Great customer service by staff name meriam

Great place, wonderful food, fantastic service from very welcoming staff members who really make you feel relaxed, there are reviews about expensive drinks, welcome to Dubai everywhere is like that. The restaurant is well decorated and plays nice relaxing music. Worth a stop

The quality of food was not that good,,mixed grill was pretty much ok,,,service was great

We visited for a luncheon hosted by one of the area universities. The food was delicious, the venue is beautiful and oh my! The desserts were amazing!

Fine dining at the cost of casual dining especially with Zomato gold. Tasty arabic food. Cozy ambiance. Highly recommended for couples.

Nice place

Nice place for shisha in a clean, new and luxury restaurant. Easy to get to and the shisha ok. They have lots of drinks options and its reasonably priced, the waiter remembers us from when we went last time and he knew what drink I ordered and asked if I wanted that again.Only 4 stars though because the shisha service can be a little slow.

Best Hummus in Dubai. They have a 3 small hummus option the red one is out of this world.

Very good food and service. Price are not cheap but right for this kind of restaurant

Nice Arabic food , good iftaar during ramadan. The staff are very nice and attentive

Staff ,food, atmosphere everything to perfection, love it.

It was a great experience, the team were extremely nice and professional, they checked on us if we needed any thing , made sure we were enjoying our time and food. Particularly, these employees really made our iftar a different one: Mark, Meryem, Kaalout, Ennajari and Gabal, all were so kind and smiling all the time.

Best lebanese food/levantine cuisine in Dubai.Mark was our waiter every time and had great service!

5 stars restaurant in Kempenski Hotel Mall of the Emirates. Beautiful ambiance, cosy and classy. They have a tent attached for smoking shisha. The food is amazing. The mixed barbecue, mazza and smoothie are very delicious. Staff are very friendly and super customer service. Very good for couples.

The food was excellent and the service staff are some of the nicest people on the planet.

Levantine restaurant serving good iftar!

Wonderful restaurant, for 3 guys awesome tasty Delicious food in this 5 star category restaurant bill will be around 500 Aed , we had Lebanese Moroccan and Indian cuisine, chef is very kind, and stewards are great, they shower kind and affection with the food, very lot for smokers non smokers office party, and family get together, royal service guaranteed.

Great service. Great atmosphere. Food quality avarage. Beverages are unreasonably costly.

Very tasty jordanian mansaf and palestinian musakhan

Good service and good food also..

Olea at Kempenski Hotel, Mall of the Emirates has such an expansive menu offering that it could almost be exhausting. We were already exhausted from the super busy day at the Zomato Blogger Conference. Interacting with fellow bloggers was exciting and tiring after 5 hours. We were treated to a massive feast at Olea for which a review would not do justice. Will be writing a detailed blog soon but know this.Olea, Specializing in Levantine cuisine which has heritage in the Ottoman era but adds a contemporary twist to the modern Arabian taste. Fans of Middle Eastern cuisine, will most definitely like the fine-dining experience of Olea without a doubt. Though the place is massive in size, they have managed to keep the ambiance intimate and you do not feel lost at any point.The dessert menu was insane with an entire room (The size of a studio flat) being dedicated to it. Tried a lot of dishes from the open-spread but my favorite bit of the evening were the sweet endings.-- A drop of ink may make a million think.Pawan Manghnani

The restaurant and food I gave 3 stars but the service is -1

Very poor quantity , poor food presentation and the worse customer service I have ever seen!

The buffet is so delicious variety of dishes

Nice buffet but slow service

Very badly managed and a lot of mismanagement.Not at all cooperative staff

Service is very slow. The foods not as good. The staffs friendly, but service is not up to a 5 Star standard.

The restaurant smells too bad, I left as I couldnt have my lunch.

Olea Restaurant Shamy Food for its fans in Dubai

Wonderful food, wonderful service, wonderful evening!Me and my partner came here for his birthday dinner.It was an incredibly beautiful atmosphere with a great climate among the staff. Dealing with the guests is incredibly professional and warm. I / we have never felt so well cared for. All the staff went out of their way to make us feel as good as possible.Our server was very helpful in choosing our food. After I mentioned in the conversation that my partners birthday, he went to his colleagues and I realized that they were planning something. After we had eaten our incredibly delicious food, the loving staff came singing with a cake to our table and congratulated him on his birthday.I was so warm about the heart.As if it was not perfect enough, we got small mini smoothies afterwards. We had the best evening in Dubai!The prices are in contrast to other restaurants absolutely normal (what shocked us first, since it is really a very classy restaurant)Everyone has to experience this restaurant.Whoever is in Dubai MUST go here, otherwise its a loss.Big thank you to the team, we will never forget you !!!

Especially wonderful free fish and shrimp with acid, garlic and kunafa

Excellent Levantine food and very courteous service. Outstanding!!
