The restaurant is well decorated and clean. The staff are nice but not highly trained, i had Falafel and Hummus and Fatte! The Falafel and hummus was very delicious, I didn’t really like the fatte needs little garlic (that’s how i like it)The location is convenient with plenty parking slots (paid RTA parking) and the restaurant is not visible the the street as it’s located at the canal (back side) it was hot but the outdoor sitting area is amazing overlooking the canal and the marina berth.PS: Falafel and hummus lovers should visit

One of the few places that offer authentic Palestinian and Jordanian breakfast. Heavy but delicious. Crowded and with COVID restrictions and limited seating capacity you should expect wait.

Food is average. Hummus is the best.- One waiter for a big restaurant: service is extremely slow- not a single Jordanian staff member around to explain the culture- they don’t have sparkling water- they don’t have large bottles of water: that’s the minimum!- not a single Jordanian flag: are you ashamed of your origins?- restaurant’s ceiling is too high making it too noisy

We have tasted the falafel , humus, fatteh , foul , qudsiya . The falafel is so tasty and crunchy with kaak. The humuss is also lovely. The fateh and foul are different than what we eat in Lebanon and it has a different taste. Personally , I prefer the original taste. The restaurant is big , clean and it has a parking nearby. The service was excellent .

Well, definitely not as good as Amman’s branch, but it’s still good. The menu is quite limited but whatever you’ll try, is so tasty! Place is very clean and service is really prompt.

I love the recpies, they do well in that department. But they dont deliver (home) when it counts and when the you sit in their business bay restaurant... Took us 30 mins to be served. Till when would this loyalty be abused.

Coming from Jordan I know this place well. It’s a bit overpriced even in Jordan, so it’s expected to be overpriced here. The food is good and you’d get what you’d expect from a place like this. If you’re not used to ghee or don’t know it then don’t order anything that has it. If you’re looking for something good and simple for foul and hummus go for it, but keep in mind it’s pricey for that kind of food!

Great taste for traditional jordanian food (falafel and humus). but I still belive that they should enrich their menu with more plates from the jordanian traditional food.

Very Good Food Original taste. Prices are very expensive for such food. It almost doesnt make any sense. Place is almost empty on a Saturday night four customers in a restaurant that seats hundreds. Management should have a better strategy as we love this restaurant to succeed in the Dubai and Middle East region.

Food tasted good and the service was quick. Falafel were fresh and crispy and tasted like home. The only downside would be the higher prices but I guess you are getting quality food.

Nice to have Abu Jbara open up in Dubai! It’s still a great falafel and as good as Jordan. Even the hummus is top notch 👌The location however is complicated to locate and it would have been better to open up on the boulevard. Actually they might have more foot traffic as I fear the current location might end up shutting down.We had both inside dinning and take out once, with the staff being very friendly. They can speed things up but overall a great experience and nice to have them in Dubai!

All you need to do is get a lot of falafel, and hummus with extra Tatbeeleh, and dip away that falafel into the hummus. Enjoy the best two ingredient meal ever!!!

Review №37

OK I feel really bad giving this place a one star because the food air is awesome and for the food they definitely deserve more than five star. It’s the stuff that makes this please difficult to navigate the cashier is one of the rudest I’ve seen in a restaurant. His name is Brian or Briaaan.Having driven 130 km I just asked for a glass of water as I was thirsty. He walked behind me for 2 AED, and wouldn’t wait for me to finish giving special instructions to the cooking station. Oh the parking is 10 AED for 15Min. They need to improve the customer service

For famous Arabic Foul, Humous or Falafel this is great spot at Business Bay and big restaurant with nice outdoor seating and views on the waters and yachts. Menu is limited, an addition of cheeses, eggs or manakeesh can make it the ultimate place for Arabic Breakfast. It is family friendly.

Excellent Jordanian food. Exactly the same quality as the one in Jordan. The restaurant offers hommos , foul, falafel and similar dishes. It provides freshly unlimited baked bread for dine in. They never brought cold falafel or bread to the table. The seating area is comfortable, neat and always clean. They provide more of free complimentary items in the UAE compared Jordan. This includes vegetables plate, hot sauce, tahini sauce for falafel, olive oil. My only note that they can be a bit slow sometimes specially compared to Jordan. There is a big RTA parking area nearby.

Great flafel and hommus restaurant beside the canal. Abu Jbara is a famous Jordanian food chain that has been opened in Amman since long time. Today it’s finally opened in Dubai. Highly recommended.

Review №75

The food is good and up to the mark. The service was not bad. In general the prices are acceptable but what got me so angry was the price for falafel, tea and drinks and I rated the place as three star. They definitely should be slashed in half.

Edited on 20.7.2020The food is as good as before, and they have reduced the prices (45%) to be in the average range, which is perfect. I would highly recommend anyone who loves hummos, falafel and foul, to visit thos place or order online, it will never fail you.It deserves 5 for the quality of their food, but I have rated 4 because of the price, unbelievablely high, And there is no reason at all.But ..... the hummos, the foul and the falafel probably are the best in UAE. its worth trying.

The food was okay... there was a problem with the oven so the bread was not fresh and it was the regular bread that you can find in any supermarket..The falafel was average. Staff seemed tensed and no one said hi back to us when we entered or anything when we left...There was a bad smell due to electric problem or something...(just our bad luck)Will most probably go again but will call before to make sure the oven is working

Food is amazing. Wish I could give them 10/5. The outdoor seating is very nice and the view is so pretty! Staff are very friendly and helpful and the place is really nice for big groups. Their menu is limited to very few things but I believe thats a plus since everything is expertly made. Hummus and falafel are the best Ive ever had in my life. Definitely worth it.

People say this place has the best hummus and falafel in town, but honestly? Its mediocre and people need a tastebud transplant. The food is just too fatty and oily for my taste, I dont know if I came in on a bad day for the chef but the branch in Jordan is much better. Im into hummus, falafel, bread especially, and I think that the 3 star is the best this place will get. Not to mention 20 dhs for hummus is quite expensive! Id rather go to Turkish Village, better hummus for around the same price
