Oh my! What a difference! Villa Beach has been around as long as Jumeirah Beach Hotel and despite holding a special place in our hearts - having had some precious family events there - over the years it has went from great to good to not-so-good but now to brilliant!The whole dining experience, from the teams attentiveness and extensive knowledge of the food and wine list, the ambience and location and then to the food - all four of us were blown away by the amazing flavours and quality; It was exceptional.We ate there twice in a week and thanks so much to Manager Pratik and Chef Marco for making both

Villa Beach has had a reboot with a new manager and a new Italian Head Chef and, oh my! What a difference! Villa Beach has been around as long as Jumeirah Beach Hotel and despite holding a special place in our hearts - having had some precious family events there - over the years it has went from great to good to not-so-good but now to brilliant!The whole dining experience, from the teams attentiveness and extensive knowledge of the food and wine list, the ambience and location and then to the food - all four of us were blown away by the amazing flavours and quality; It was exceptional.We ate there twice in a week and thanks so much to Manager Pratik and Chef Marco for making both experiences truly memorable.

The seafood was amazing but the risotto tasted a bit.. different? But it’s all good though, the staff were nice. The atmosphere could’ve been better? Make sure to come when there’s not a lot of people haha

Never come her if you considering celebrating any romantic occasions unless you want to be disappointed.We booked for our 13th anniversary and we regret the poor luck that led us to this restaurantAfter we ordered the food , the served everything in 10 minutes which led to cold dishes after 10 minutes in our beautiful weatherEven though we called them and told them about our celebration, still the didn’t even but a candle on our table.Don’t come her unless you want to take a photo with burj alarab

Very nice place and amazing views. The staff is very attentive and helpful. The food took a little bit to arrive, especially the appetizers took a very long time, but over all it was very good.The serious problem they have is they have a lounge open literally right by them, at first you think it’s their lounge. It’s like an open place where they just threw some tables in front of Burj Al Arab and the noise is horrible. Ruins the night.

It was a good place very romantic for couples and nice for groups gathering... The location is just right fronting Burj Al Arab...I took advantage of Dubai Restaurant Week so far the 3-set course menu was good (but not so surprising). Service was fine too. It wasnt good weather when I had dinner that night (27Feb18) so theres a bit of rain drops and people were started evacuating inside the restaurant. As I evacuated myself and stood up beside the restaurant waiting for the staff to accommodate me. A server (forgot to get the name) approached me after a few minutes of waiting and he tried to accommodate me inside the restaurant to continue with my dessert.

Not many choices, and a bet overpriced. But atmosphere was very nice

Villa Beach is a cozy restaurant at the Jumeirah Beach, close to Jumeirah Beach Hotel (entrance to Villa Beach is from this hotel). You enjoy your lunch, dinner or just a glass of a cold drink with the view of Burj al Arab and the sound of the ocean. I really enjoyed this, and would love to come back!

We went there to grab a quick bite and we are never going back. We ordered a burger and cream cheese salmon bagel. We wouldnt have mind paying 100 dirhams for the burger and 85 for the bagel if the quality was good. But nothing was fresh - from the buns & bagels up to meat patty and salmon, everything was dry. Isnt salmon bagel the most basic dish to prepare? I dont even care about the cheap fries which had a worse quality than deepfrozen supermarket fries. The only thing that wasnt dry was ketchup. The nice ambience and location on the beach are simply not enough for more than one star!

Villa beach is a restaurant tucked in the beautiful property of Jumeirah hotel. It has a gorgeous outdoor seating area with views of Burj Al Arab. We loved sitting outdoors and made use of the perfect weather before its long gone. For the Dubai food fests Restaurant week they have great offers where you could try three courses for just Aed 199/- . You could also win staycations if you dine in for three or more times.We started off with Beef cheek terrine with Foie gras, red onion marmalade and toasted sour dough. It was delicious and full of flavors. Well presented as well.Next was Villa beach Salad with Kale, russet apple, walnuts, manchego and truffle dressing. It was crunchy and fresh with perfect dressing.For mains we had Corn fed chicken with Parsley spaetzle, creamed leeks and caramelized ceps. The chicken was so tender and we really wanted to order one more of it.Another one was Mushroom ravioli with Wild mushroom, rocket, parmesan and truffle cappuccino. We felt a little bland but a pinch of salt covered it up.Finally for dessert we had Chocolate tart with Vahlrona chocolate and mandarin sorbet. The tart was melt in mouth consistency. I fell in love with it at the first bite.Next was Fruit selection with lemon sorbet and mint syrup.I wish they had some variety of desserts available otherwise we enjoyed the experience and really value for money.

Had our annual year end dinner in this restaurant. The food was nice and very tasty. The view was the best part. The staffs were also very nice and accomodating. A bit pricey though. But the experience is worth it. The restaurant manager was also very hands on. Wish there are better lighting than the small lamps. Hard to take photos of the food for IG.

The weather was great, the food was amazing although the spaghetti carbonara just had a wee bit too much cheese for my liking. I guess everyone has different taste.

Always a nice experience to sit by the beach and have an amazing dinner with friends. The food took sometime to arrive but it was perfect! The steak was on point.I dropped a star due to the noise. In such a venue, why put a lounge with loud music next to the restaurant, even if it’s ladies night!!! It was frustrating as we couldn’t hear each other and just sat there to eat. I hope management recognizes the issue.

One of the poorest meals I’ve had in Dubai in a long time. Not enough waiting staff meant very slow service, lack of communication meant we paid for Italian water having ordered local & food was poor too.Then they started building a truss for a Mew Ywars Eve event 2m from the table where I sat with my wife & kids. As they lifted it vertically, my own knowledge of Health & Safety kicked in & I ordered the staff to stop. Appalling.

I booked at Villa beach to celebrate my wifes birthday. The service is exceptional, the staff are very helpful and attentive. The view is spectacular and the ambiance is amazing, very quiet and cosy. The food was very good, we had 2 seafood plates and some appetizers, and the staff treated us for a cake and sang happy birthday to my wife. Amazing experience.

Id have to stay the location is fantastic, its great to be seated outdoors when the weather is still bearable in Dubai. The views are directly of the iconic Burj Al Arab. The only downside my wife and i felt was that the choices on the menu were quite limited. Otherwise, great ambiance, friendly staff and overall fantastic quality of food.

Nice menu and delicious dishes, good service. But there is terrible location. Outside by the sea you can see a lot of workers and excavation works. To came in and came out you have to use a local baggies. But local baggies are the worst service in the world. So, my recommendation to visit this place only if you have enough patron.

We decided as part of our half-board package we would try Villa Beach as we had heard such good reviews from other guests in previous years. I can confirm we were not disappointed. The restaurant had a calming atmosphere with bright/airy decor. The food itself was superb and the staff both attentive and knowledgable.The location of the restaurant is amazing, onlooking the Burj Al Arab. Just a shame the weather was so hot... otherwise, we would definitely sat outside!

Was so very impressed by this place!! Pratik‘s team especially Sahdev Amgeth and Antony went above and beyond the service we could expect! Their pastas are fantastic with a very authentic style and taste. Their flexibility on pizza styles was great and the ambience of this place is gorgeous!One meal they specially sourced South Indian cuisine for my mum which meant the world to us. A bunch of warm efficient polite guys who understand food and customer needs

Very kind and pleasant service, absolutely lovely atmosphere when sitting on the beach lounge. The view onto Burj Al Arab and sunset is wonderful and really tasty cocktails. There is calm and relaxing music being quietly played and the couches are also comfortable to chill on. Only complaint would be relatively high waiting time when just ordering drinks.

Awesome experience that was worth every dirham. Although we were a large group their staff really took care of each and every single one of us.To get to this restaurant you need to go through the Jumeirah Beach Hotel lobby (free valet, get ticket stamped at restaurant) once youre outside its a short walk or buggy ride away.
