Such a beautiful place to hang out, its an open air restaurant bar. Love the ambience and good food too. The beef skewers is fantastic. Video uploaded on my YouTube channel LOISMAV Dubai Vlogs about my amazing experience on this beautiful place.

Obsessed with this new hangout spot at the ME by Melia Hotel! We visited for my partners birthday and was delighted to spend an evening encompassed within a beautiful and unique ambiance whilst enjoying yummy food and quirky cocktails.I think its worth mentioning that the food is more suited towards a tapas style menu so I would definitely recommend ordering a few different dishes to share on the table. There are a few comments below suggesting that the portions arent that big, but I believe that is because the dishes were created so you could share with friends, try more of the menu, and ultimately split the bill. You wouldnt go to this place for a sit down steak and chips for example, its more of a cool social setting.The venue also doubles up as a pool lounge during the day.Cant wait to go back!

Despite the average reviews here, I visited this place with a colleague as we wanted to check out the lavish hotel this restaurant is located in. I really feel pushed to write this review now as we were absolutely delighted with the place! The place really exceeded our expectations and we already agreed that we would come back here with friends anytime and can confidently recommend it.The atmosphere of the restaurant is very nice. It has a cozy design and a great tropical vibe, as well as a great view of the surrounding skyline. Its very comfortably furnished, with loungy sofas, but also normal table options.We were served by Manoj from Nepal, who is an absolute gem. A very nice chap and we really enjoyed chatting with him.Emiliano, the Italian manager, also took very good care of us and overall we felt great hospitality here with warm interactions with the staff.Regarding the food: we totally over-ordered as we read in advance about the small portions. Let me tell you, the portions are more than adequate and the food was incredibly good. Great dessert too.The place was well populated when we were there, which I usually take as a good sign and which added to the nice atmosphere.Overall I had a great time there and would come back anytime!

I often go to Dubai on business and I love to try different glamorous places. Two weeks ago I went to Deseo with my colleagues. It was a marvelous ambiance but what we loved most was the elegant and the amazing welcome by Emiliano, we thought he was the manager but he told us he was the food and beverage manager assistant. He was highly professional, elegant and friendly with brilliant manners. He made sure we had a high standard service. And yes we had an amazing service! Luxury while feeling at home!

Too bad that the zero star is not an option in google review, but lets give this only one to the place, the view and to the waiter that was really nice and sorry for us.Dont waist your time for a dinner there and take all the bad review as true, all the prices of the place are ridiculously high regarding to the quantity and the quality. Attached the picture that speaks for any review (3 tacos like that are priced 60AED, without taste).

Lovely experience , cozy elegant pool bar in modern yet charming decor . Our waiter was very kind and helpful to suggest the cocktails and lighting here is a plus to create a nice ambiance. We did not try the food menu , next time, but the appetisers looks amazing. And we are tempted to try...

Dont expect anything there except the ambiance and the spot which is cool but not amazing.We went for a birthday and we were highly disappointed by everything. The quality (disgusting, I am still wondering what was the taste of the crumbs they served me) and quantity (even kids portions are 3 times bigger) of the food is RIDICULOUS specially for a place pretending to be at a high standing and very expensive.The service was very bad, not reactive, slow and the manager was really of bad faith! I think he can now really thanks me for the feedback as it was continously his only reply to us!

Good ambience and staff, but the food was ridiculously priced for such tiny portions. The food took too long. End of the evening we payed a huge bill but I was still hungry.

If I could give a negative rating, I would. This was one of the most, if not THE most, horrible restaurant/bar I had been to.All the previous reviews were right in all accounts: the food was ridiculously priced when it was bad, portions too tiny, took too long to reach your table, but the worst part was not even the food but the service.Not only will you get unsatisfying food for the price, but the servers were rude and inefficient. They had a bad attitude when asked, gave me the wrong drink after waiting for so long, and they practically ignored our table and requests even when we ordered several times.When confronted, not only were they not apologetic, but with a disrespectful tone told us that they could offer us better food and drinks than we were having.This place is not recommended. There are countless better restaurants and bars in Dubai that are worth your money. The ambiance and the view are not even that good in comparison to others.

Go to eat at Treehouse, dont waste time and money.OK, the manager will tell you everyone is so happy in my restaurant, I think that was the biggest lie he told us that night, but at the same time he lied several times, so not easy to choose the biggest lie.We received a menu with dishes for the restaurant, we are still waiting to see them. Maybe the menu was also a lie? In any case they deleted the card in 3 days without warning us, while we were talking to him during the day.We ate portions equivalent to the kids food, even the child would have been still hungry. But the price was equivalent to a gourmet restaurant. A breathtaking price for a non-existent portion.Their Guacamole tasted soap and the avocados were hard as a rock, but apparently it was delicious. Why you have 2/10 on google, if everything is perfect ?We had asked for a table overlooking the Burj , they said yes, but the message was not transmitted and we had to fight to get the right place.Luckily, they offered us some churros, too bad, even that was cold and not taste. But Im impressed, because its hard to mess up a dessert like that.In short : lies, disrespect, unprofessional, expensive AND I AM HUNGRY.Dont make the same mistake we did. You will be disappointed!
