Akawi Restaurant: A Mixed Bag in Dubai

If you find yourself wandering near One Lake Plaza, you might stumble across Akawi Restaurant. Tucked in a small spot on Sheikh Zayed Road, it’s one of those places you could easily miss if you’re not paying attention.

Now, everyone’s got something to say about this place. With 133 reviews, they’re sitting at a rather lukewarm 3.5 outta 5 stars. That’s like getting a C in school, right? Some patrons rave about their quick bites and affordable meals, especially their shawarma wrapped in saj roti. It seems like it’s a solid pick when you’re in a crunch for time or cash.

But hold up—don’t just dive in headfirst. There’s chatter about service that, let’s just say, could use a bit of polish. Ever had your food take so long that you wondered if it swam over? Well, some folks have experienced that here, with deliveries taking ages. And then there’s the food quality that, depending on whom you ask, can either be a real treat or, unfortunately, a letdown.

For those who appreciate a casual vibe, this might be your scene. They do outdoor seating, which can be a nice escape from Dubai’s hustle. Plus, if you’re into sippin' on chai, they’ve got a good selection.

But seriously, if you’re thinking of dining in, just be ready for a cozy spot; seating’s limited. And while many find it good for a solo lunch or a quick breakfast, the atmosphere feels a bit cramped.

Akawi’s open every day from 7:15 AM to 11:45 PM. So, if you’re around, you might as well give it a shot. Just keep your expectations in check and maybe, just maybe, bring your patience along.
