Review №1

Hilton hotels buffet restaurant that is popular amongst hotel guests, but open to outsiders alike.It offers seafood night on Thursdays with a couple of live grill stations - one for seafood, another for meat. For seafood night, the live seafood station includes fish, prawns and squid but unfortunately no lobster/crayfish. The cold seafood section includes oysters, crab, clams, squid and prawns. The live grilled meat station includes beef, chicken and lamb.Other food includes appetisers such as sushi and sashimi, salads and mezze; through to some cooked main course dishes, and cheeses and desserts. Overall theres quite a lot of choice for an all-round buffet meal, but overall food quality is average and the seafood in particular is so-so for a seafood night.Service is friendly and helpful, with staff efficiently assisting with the canteen style serving of food, clearing plates and serving drinks.Theres a couple of packages available - buffet with soft drinks package or buffet with alcohol including beer, wine and some basic spirits. However, note that the venue closes at 10:30pm and it starts to get quiet well before then.Overall, a decent experience which can be improved with better seafood for a seafood night.

Located in the very convenience venue just in front of the entrance of Hilton Jumeirah Beach Residence. You can find wide variety of buffet here. What I recommend here is seafood and also surprisingly salmon and tuna sashimi here are terrific which is not really the case in buffet style restaurant!

I’ve enjoyed my dinner at Hilton tonight. There was various fresh seafood options in the buffet. All of the staff were really helpful especially Callen. When i said that steak and octopus were tough, she kindly offered to make it up for me with some other drink or food. I would give 7/10 for opulence & value for money. A bit of diligent care in cooking could easily make things perfect. And deserts were lovely 👌

I’d like to appreciate the team members from housekeeping team, Shan and the hostess (sorry I couldn’t ask for her name) from traders inc. , Sandeep, Callen, Errol, Takie from pool and Rabi. Super friendly and very welcoming. Keep up with the good work.

Good value for money. Taste of dishes is average but the desserts make the experience above average. Belle Provence cake is the best cake then creme brûlée although small is nicely done. Thumbs up for these desserts.

Went for the Eid Buffet. Lovely staff who are so happy to help and assist. I had a buffet here last year and the menu changes. I actually preferred the desert selection last year. However, food was well prepared, fresh and suited everyone is our group. Valet parking is available and is free. You have the option to sit in the light glass conservatory to the left as you enter the restaurant, which would be lovely in the cooler months. I think the decor could do with a little updating. With the buffet option you have the choice of pool access too. Would definitely go back again.

Celebrated our Daughters 21st Celebration and it was so wonderful. Hagen, Melanie, Callen, Grace, Riedwaan and the whole team just made everyone so special. It is always such a wonderful feeling when you are made to feel as if you are the only guest in the restaurant.I will most surely be coming back.Well done Oceana and team.

This came late, but you know what they say .. “better late than never” 😃😃.I’ve invited my friends to Oceana restaurant during the holy month of Ramadan, and the experience was exceptional. Jegan, Yogesh, and their team were very welcoming,friendly, and helpful. We were very happy with the service provided and the offering.We have been to different buffet restaurants, but we have really enjoyed the variety of food that was available, and we had a friend who was vegeterian but was able to enjoy the food. This will definitely not be the last visit, inshallah 😃

The staff is amazing at the Hilton Jumeira/Walk from front office to housekeeping to breakfast lounge. Special thanks to management Loes, Elfi, Karen, Caroline, Donna, Ahmed, Vaths, Bimala and all others that I don’t remember names sorry. Makes being away from home an amazing experience and sometimes i forget about my home in USA and replace with this as a sweet home. Thanks again to all and will be back in May only 3 weeks away.

Staff is unprofessional, very slow service. I’ve asked two times what kind of drinks included in the package and after all they billed us for the drinks (( variety of food is limited, some of it not even fresh . AC isn’t working properly. I’d not recommend this buffet unless you have no choice to go.

Loved the Arabian Night buffet! Great options for everyone, the servers were attentive and there was a great selection of available food. The traditional and even some Middle Eastern dishes Ive never had the pleasure of tasting until that evening. I used a Groupon and well worth the money, but if you arent a big eater the full price may not be worth it to you. I dont eat a ton so it was spot on price wise for me.

Review №28

I have only experienced the buffet,In my proper opinion , the buffet could be better. The food is lacking flavours as per my taste , however there are choices in each category, 10 choices in entry ( cold) 5 to 6 choices as main dish, and more then 8 choices in desert. Its ok

Review №29

We went there in family for a normal lunch buffet on Friday. The disadvantage is that there was very limited hot dishes (qty.5 + grilled fish + grilled steak + chicken shawarma). But this time I found more highlights: 1. The cold starters were very fine and delicious. The seafood (fish, crab leg) is delicately hidden inside the small dishes; 2. I had the best mayonnaise in my life ever! 3. The chicken shawarma was far better than what I had before: the wrap was thin and crispy, the chicken was tender and juicy.I give a four-star to all the highlights above!Of course if you want something extraordinary and more in choice, you should choose their evening themes, such as seafood night, etc.

Arabian Theme is the best.I tried many Arabian Resturats but I have never tasted delicious Ozi like the one I tried here.I met the chief who did it, he cooked it better than Arabs - and I am Arab.Other dishes were very good and tasty.Grilled food was fantastic.Sweets, I just couldn’t stop eating them.I recommend everyone to try Arabia Theme on Monday, you will come back again like me.The Manager, chief, and the staff are very hospitable.

Review №35

The worst Iftar ever, I dont recommend it at all. Total waste of money. Arabic grills are overgrilled with no spices. Lamb ozi is terrible! Fruits are tasteless. The only thing that tasted well was the lentil soup and the salads. And to add flavor to the experience, the AC was too hot that me and my daughter were sweating!!

Below average food quality, presentation and selection of dishes, been recently in the French night and it was horrible, I would say the restaurant quality equals to 3 stars in bur dubai, if it wasn’t for the location this place wouldn’t be worth to visit. Staff polite and nice...This outlet is far from 5 star, not recommended at all.

Good day! Our family rested at the Hilton Hotel from May 31 to June 13, 21 years old. All this time we will remember for a long time! The hotel staff are courteous, tactful and know their job well. I would also like to write about the Ocean restaurant of this hotel. The restaurants cuisine is delicious, varied and satisfying! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming! We, both children and adults, are satisfied and glad that we had our meal there! Separately, I would like to note and express my gratitude to SHERZOD, BAHA, AKBAR! Well done guys! Professional! And doing their job well! Thanks to them!
