Tasty food, friendly staff, service as smooth as 'silk'! Every dish ordered had a taste of its own! They serve alcohol and do have an outside terrace for those who would like to sit outside or go for a smoke!

Great food, friendly staff, ask for a table on the terrace, you can watch the world go by as you eat. The fried ice-cream is very good.

We booked - didn't need to it was empty inside. Outside there is a small balcony overlooking noisy street scenes. The staff were unhappy looking and lackadaisical in their approach. Three times they had to be asked for slices of lemon for the water. The food was uninspiring and took along time in coming, which was surprising as there were... More

Above the street and attached to the Arabian Courtyard Hotel, this wonderful restaurant pleases. Duck, fresh fish, tangy soups, nice wine list, wonderful service (although they are very slow to give you the bill). Especially if you are staying in the hotel, do visit this. We dined there lots and enjoyed Chinese and Thai dishes.

This is probably the best of the Arabian Courtyard Hotel restaurants, offering a good variety of Chinese and Thai dishes, the lobster being particularly good, and do try the Manchurian vegetable patties, delicious! The food offers a variety of spiciness and is all beautifully presented and served by charming and helpful staff. The outdoor terrace is delightful in the evenings,... More

A friend who had resided in Dubai for years recommended we stay at the Arabian Courtyatrd Hotel, home of the Silk Route restaurant. We took my mates advice and we are glad we did - it is a great hotel, with a small English pub, and 3 restaurants. We tried them all and found them excellent, and we were on... More

my partner and i were directed there through a friend of mine. We wasnt disappointed at all with the location , the food and the service. Their vibe is trully authentic and ambience can never be better. You can simply tell the Chef to minimize the spice in your chosen dish and be able to still get amazing results.The food... More

To be honest with you when my friends requested me to join them for dinner in Silk Route restaurant I was a bit skeptical as it is located in Bur Dubai, a crowded area with no parking available. I was pleasant surprised when I realized I was wrong; apart from that the hotel is offering free valet parking. The restaurant... More
