Al Safadi Restaurant Motor City

From the looks and reviews, it seemed somewhat upscale place with delicious food. However, I was slightly disappointed, with the main reason being the taste.

The ambience of the restaurant is a bit specific. It's mostly white and gold with the excerpts of design everywhere from the waiters to the table runner to the plates and interior. For my taste though, it was too bright, too much chrome and gold finishing. I think the interior needs revisiting. Upstairs, though smoking, was better, more relaxed.

The service was good. Although, no one came asking how our food was or if we wanted anything else, it was quick and requests were acknowledged promptly.

The food was presented very nicely, and it looked yummy to eat. But I was taken aback by the taste. Most of the things I tasted i.e. the mixed shawarma plate, stuffed lamb, vegetarian khashkhash lacked seasoning and spice. It was very bland. The drinks menu also had very few options, with none for mocktails.

My go to Lebanese place for authentic and the highest quality food. Thanks to Kamal and staff for a great experience. Loved the live music on Saturday night.

I had raw meat for the first time and I loved it so much, I wanted to take it away, but it was not allowed. Of course, I understand the reason :) The portion was good for four people.

In general, good restaurants have good food, but at times when I was there, it was noisy.

The food is super delicious, portions are generous 👌 all staff are very friendly, we were served by Fedaa. He was professionally polite. People coming here non-stop😍
Highly reccomend for food lovers, especially lamp kebab ❤️

Great food and vibes. Service is outstanding specifically Laith, he has recommended the best options for us. Kept asking if we needed anything. Such a polite and friendly waiter. Made out experience even better.

On our recent trips to Dubai we've now visited two Al Safadi restaurants at two separate locations including tonight a visit to Al Safadi in Motor City Dubai.

For a restaurant that was established within the last twenty five years its established a strong reputation for service and food & one that is quite justified based on our recent visits.

It's a modern Lebanese restaurant with large glass curved frontage with seating inside and out as well as having a first floor. The restaurant is well laid out so tables aren't right on top of each other. The decor and lighting are bright and modern. The staff are smartly dressed in prestine white shirts with the restaurant logo embroidered on the right side in navy.

Tonight's meal, during a very busy Ramadan, was excellent. The service was prompt, efficient and friendly; all staff are polite, very helpful and courteous.

The service is matched by the quality and presentation of the food, as my photos show. All beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. The hummus is beautifully creamie, light in texture and full of flavour and taste.

Al Safadi is our favourite restaurant when visiting Dubai; a must visit each time. Strong service and great food. It does good Lebanese food very well with attentive staff, on hand quickly if needed, whilst checking if your food is 'good'.

There's a convenient parking garage right next door which is free for the first two hours.

Popped back for our second visit in four days. Funny enough it hadn't changed. Still very good. Hats off to the cleaning staff who are as busy as any of the staff, efficiently cleaning tables, cleaning under the tables and outside area, busying themselves to keep the restaurant spotlessly clean 😉.

Level 9 Google reviewer; 900 plus reviews, 1.5 million views and over 12,000 photos with around 45 million views and still going strong 💪.

You can’t complain about this good restaurant a bit overpriced but food and service is amazing.
