Hi
Review №1

Karak was just okay, there is better karak in town, you are paying for the ambiance and location, so obviously you pay a premium for everything on the menu. The place is nice for other items in the menus, lots of healthy options, just not good karak! There’s both outdoor and indoor seating, for parking there is a valet right outside the restaurant so that’s super convenient, and the staff and very friendly and helpful! I would not go again as I mainly went for the karak, which was quite disappointing but check there other items before going and decide for yourself ;)

Traditional Emirati cafe. We came here for breakfast. Their ice karak and traditional karak was perfect. We also ordered Karak Breakfast, Waffle Chorizos and Pancake. My favorite is pancake.Staff is friendly and professional. Location and view is amazing. I will come here more

Good tea but they put alot of zaffran in it so it tastes very sweet, other than that good service and nice ambience no doubt.

Nice view but expensive. I paid 60 aed for a medium Karak, small bottle of water and paratha. I didnt even eat the second paratha, didnt feel fresh and it was a bit greasy, it looked like it was reheated and the grease was staying on my mouth. Prices for medium size Karak are not on the menu, was surprised to find it is double in price than the regular when the cup size is not double. I dont think Ill come back again, you can get the view from somewhere you can spend well those 60 aed

Actually the karak house is an average restaurant location is good I would give 3.5 more than average slide but it is nice to visit but price is very high their food is average restaurant can make better if the work more hard and I believe they may take the comment into the consideration I will may visit it again in futures and reevaluate it again and I guess it may make difference in future. Try and share your opinion with others

The iced karak here was so delicious because the flavors were perfectly balanced. It’s not easy to find karak with the perfect amount of spices and ingredients. I forgot the name of the sandwich I had, but it was on traditional Emirati bread, filled with scrambled eggs and other tasty ingredients. This place is great if you’re looking for an authentic Emirati cafe. Location is also a bonus

Wonderful place. Came across accidentally, iftar offer catched my eye. Where else you get a chance to experience a full table of transitional emirati cuisine for a hundred dirham? Moreover, they served me it after traditional hours. Everything was extravagant and well decorated as in the best 5-star restaurant. I fully recommend not only come here for a dinner but any other time. Im sure they know how to impress guests

On a Cloudy Dubai Morning, I went for a walk in the boulevard. And to add to it I found Karak House. I mean there is no better way to enjoy this weather than taking a walk in the boulevard and sitting and sipping the delicious karak with the view of khalifa.They are usually a little crowded during weekend mornings. But you will get a place after a brief wait. I ordered the Karak(Ofcourse), Shakshuka and a Berry French Toast. All of them were brilliant. I had to order another karak after my meal, thats how good it was. Bounty Points for the Glucose Biscuit :)Must Try : Karak and Shakshuka

This is an excellent restaurant located in this Downtown Boulevard Dubai.They dont have a lot of menu option. Food was hot nicely presented and food is tasty and I really love the Karak chai here, We thought a little pricey for dinner but worth the experience to dine here.

I liked their Instagram account and they invited me to come for a Karak Tea. Ive ordered from them on Deliveroo once before and again had the amazing salad I ate from my previous order. Normally I dont like pomegranate in my salad, but this is a beautifully engineered dish - the salad dressing is also quite sweet (I might suggest asking them to go lite on the dressing if you like your salad crisp).I had a fabulous sweet dessert too. I found the service to be too slow considering the amount of guests they had, perhaps my fault for sitting around the corner. Nevertheless, the server was very pleasant and acknowledged my long wait for my dessert to arrive.The restaurant is far enough from the hustle of The Dubai Mall but close enough if you plan to visit after or before something to eat. The Burj Khalifa can be seen if sitting outside.Something different to experience when in the mood for a sweet treat.

My one star review because they allow pets. Its a restaurant not a park. A screaming kid afraid of dogs in a restaurant is absolutely not acceptable. I am not even sure if its legal to allow bets in Dubai restaurants. Very strange

Review №85

This place is normally quite good, but last night Very Disappointing, all 3 portions of Samosa’s were over done, near to almost Burnt in oil, the 5 medium Karak Chai’s all warm & not Hot.. Had invited guests with me, so didn’t want to show my displeasure to the staff, in front of my guests..But Karak House, please don’t let your high standards drop, otherwise you will lose customers like me... My bill last night was just under 400 dirhams.. Regards
