Quiet, beautiful place with a very friendly and attentive service. The complimentary hummus served as a starter was amazing! The Sea Bream fish is highly recommended.
Great food and service by Mr Ahmed our server. Had the Robyan Magli - and the Samak Tanoor. sea food was good.
It was our first visit to Al Fanar and it was exceptional!
The ambiance, the beautiful terrace with fountains and most importantly, the food which was was sooo delicious! We ordered rice with shrimps and rice with chicken and also luqaimat. Everything was tasty, we’ll definitely come back again!
I liked the food and place👍
المكان يفتح النفس ومطل ع البحيره خاصه الجو هالايام جميل
Really loved the experience at al fanar ..we ordered 3 dishes which was enough for 4 ...the rice which came along with the fishes and quail was too plain ...they could have added at least butter to it ...although they wanted to bring back the olden days of UAE . We ordered the sea bass fish which was opened up and had a lot of flavor with fresh garlic and other spices ...that was the best one out of the three that we ordered ..then the sea bream was a whole fish which was a little too plain and a little too burnt but it was still fine and the quail tasted good but it was hard so quite. Struggle if you don’t use your hands to eat it ...the decor was wonderful especially with the water fountain at the side which made the environment very pleasant. At the end they even sprinkle Rose water for everyone which was something very common in the olden days even in the south eastern countries!
This was the first time I visited Al Fanar. What struck me most about the place more than the cuisine was the overall experience provided by the ambience and the tranquil atmosphere at the Majaz Waterfront. As a place to try out Emirati cuisine, Al Fanar provides some delicious grilled dishes. Try out the Kebabs. You won't regret it. Trying out dishes like the Tikka Deyay also leave the taste buds satisfied. Although I could go on, for the moment, this suffices and I was pleased to spend an evening with my family here.
The food was both light on the palette and stomach. The winter weather adds to the lovely ambience!!

Al Fanar is a terrific home grown brand that has grown considerably in the last couple of years, but has maintained the consistency in their offering.
Came here for breakfast and had a varied selection of breakfast specialties from the region
Muhalla - Thin crepe like preparation - nice to dunk in date syrup
Balaleet - this was slightly sweetened vermicelli with egg - it made for a great breakfast dish and something unusual.
Bajeela - These were boiled brown broad beans that were served their own liquid with a local spice - very nicely cooked with nice taste and texture
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes - interesting egg preparation - never realized tomatoes could taste so good with eggs
Fried eggs - ordered these just in case - and these came as a surprise because of the three eyes - cooked three eggs together in a pan - perfectly cooked.
Khubz Khameer - these were freshly baked breads with a sprinkling of sesame - very nice and went very well with the scrambled eggs
Boiled chick peas - These were natural with a hint of cumin - healthy and delicious.
Kadak Chai - Amazing end to the breakfast - don't need any lunch after this great breakfast.
Service was spot on - a Filipino waiter serving cuisine from the region, but very knowledgeable about all the dishes and went the extra mile to explain every dish that was being served.
The layout and setting of the restaurant is just great and at this time of the year, the weather is perfect to sit out and enjoy the ambiance of the amazing setting in Al Majaz
Plenty of parking available - don't forget to get your parking ticket validated at the restaurant.
Traditional Emirati dessert !! I just love it !! ❤️
Amazing seafood (seriously one of the best I had in Dubai) in an authentic Emirati restaurant - we ordered shrimps, seabass and squid.
The view outside is nice and you can enjoy old Dubai and the Creek Canal.
The service provided by Ahmed was inpeccable.
I like this place, i order for regag, balaeeth all i like very well, and the ambience also very nice...staff is friendly..i recommed this...you must visit...🙂 thnks

We had been for a staycation in Yas island and while visiting the yas world we luckily found Al fanar in zomato gold and being in the UAE for the last 7 years we have not tried Emirati food and so we had stepped forward to Alfanar and it was for lunch that we had visited them
Ambience- was filled with antiques that depicted the olden Emirati life style right from the olden television 📺, tailoring machine, landline phones 📞 , lanterns , picture frames , cutleries made the ambience 100% Emirati
Food- they had not only focused on the ambience but also on all their food menu as well right from the traditional sweets to the yummiest biriyanis they have it all . We had ordered for chicken majboos and the Emirati chicken beriyani then lamb chops with Arabic bread , The quantity was very much super filling and it tasted extremely good. Rice cooked to perfection which carried the flavors of the chicken and the Arabic spices. How ever found the lamb chops served with Arabic bread was definitely a very good filling combo .
The staffs were very decent and polite enough to serve, take orders.
Since we were very happy with the serve and the food we had. Also visited the shj Majaz Fanar and we were satisfactorily happy!
Also after the meal don’t forget to get the rose water hand wash ❤️
Highly recommended for good Emirati food
Over all rating
Price -5/5

Ambience-5/5 just perfect
Lovery traditional Emirati restaurant with an outdoor and indoor area, situated by the Al Majaz Waterfront.
The food was delicious, very fresh and tasty with big portions. The service was good too, the lady who served us was very polite, attentive and friendly. Recommended for a good quality dinner with a nice view.
I always love coming to Al Fanar because the staff is always nice. It’s my go to place when I can’t eat at home but still crave something Emirati. I’m glad they opened a branch in Sharjah!
We ordered Freed, Khmeer and Khubeesa. The food was good; we almost emptied our plates! I’d defiantly recommend the Freed but the Khubeesa was disappointing to be honest.
Fanar is from the best restaurant which me, my husband and my kids like.. it has variety of good imarati food.. we like browns byranh, fried browns, laham nashef , momwash and meat biryanh..
I had visited this restaurant before, and I really enjoyed it. The food was fabulous and the service was so good. I also liked the traditional cloths.

Nice restaurant, clean and fast. Specially with Emirati food. Served great and hot. Well located near the sea and has a lot of parking. Thanks.
We were here on a Saturday evening for our dinner and we really loved this place. Nestled in the Al majaz water front area, this is a true Emirati restaurant. They have a beautiful view of the Al majaz waters and even the indoor seating has the local Emirati ambience. The staff is really friendly and helpful and we had a good meal. We ordered the kebab Emirati and Tekat deyat Emirati with a very light and refreshing Yogurt dip which was so good. We ended our meal with their luqaimat which was drizzled with date sauce. We would definitely visit this place again.
It's a good restaurant and they have a quick service.
The place is very clean and the food is very tasty and tasty and the wonderful outdoor meetings.

Best Authentic Emarati Foods, the taste of Salona Lamb with white rice with green chilies is awesome, you will keep coming back for the delicious complete Emarati cousins from Appetizer, Main Course and sweets and best Emirates hospitality given to us by Mr. Jobin who serves the foods . The ambiance is very relaxing as it’s in the sea side . More Blessings to this restaurant.

Had a great, delicious lunch at Al Fanar. Cerelina is a friendly waitress and made sure that everything is ok. She also recommended some of the dishes. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for Emirati food.
It's great see Al Fanar Flag in Sharjah
I have visited their DFC branch
its more spacious then DFC
The food was excellent and up to the T
True emiraiti hut
No one can beat their Luqimat - 👍
Highly recommended
A true place to taste the emirati cuisine
Staffs are well attentive
Excellent ambience with museum effect
Really enjoyed the food from here. Very very tasty indeed. Well cooked, delicious and flavourful.
Only one thing that slightly put me off was,
I thought the portion size would be much bigger for the prices they offer, but was slightly disappointed.
Another recommendation from me is to please not deliver with plastic cutlery or check with the person if they need cutlery or not.
أنا داءما أذهب إلى هذا مطعم، يعجبني أكلهم متنوع عندهم كل الأنواع مثل الكيما، براتا، جباب، بلاليط، دنجو، باجله، بيض طماط ،بيض عيون ،جباب ،خبز وقافي ،والكرك اللذيذ ، في مكان مميز على بحيرة خالد ممكن مشاهدة البحيرة والنافورة والمباني العمرانية والمساجد ذات التصميم الاسلاميي الذي يذكرنا بالحضارة الامويه الأندلسية كما تم تزيين المطعم من الداخل بلوحات وصور تراثية تعبر عن تراث الإمارات وتم تأثيث المطعم بطاولات تذكرنا بتراثنا الجميل بالإضافة إلى بعض المقتنيات القديمة من تلفاز وراديو يذكرنا بالماضي الجميل صراحه تحس انك تقضي وقت جميل يمر عليك الوقت كشريط ذكريات بين الماضي والحاضر
كما ان الموقع ممتاز جدا واتمننى لكم دوام التوفيق والنجاح الدئم راجيا من الله تعا لى ان يدم عليكم كل خير شكرا لخدماتكم الممتازه والطعام الجيد🤩
Excellent restaurant and quality of food reminds us of the past, and the staff is very helpful and upscale service .. Do not forget the request Balalait 🥰

It's a good place that have good food and appetizers
I ordered balaet and it was good
I like a lot the food there
And i liked the karak here it's so good
افظل مطعم و الخدمة ممتازة و المنظر مريح جدا انصح بزيارته بشدة و تعامل الموظفين راقي و المطعم نظيف نتعامل معهم كل مرة و ناتي بالعائلة أكلهم لذيذ و مطابق للوصفات الاماراتية و الزينة كأنها تحفة فنية جيد جدا للتصوير
A tourist's delight.
Who doesn't love Al-Fanar? Im so happy they opened in Majaz.
The staff is kind and the ambience is mindblowing as expected. I just love the old, quaint set-up here, even the restroom adheres to the theme so every tourist has to try this. The food is very tasty.
The breakfast is loved by all. I haven't had their main meals (Lunch/dinner)
But, everything else, is up to the mark. I have got pictures of the luqaimat (Ask for more date sauce and sesame) and chebab (served with kraft cheese and honey). As you can see the portions are small. So I request the management to introduce regular discounts, espcly for students.
Lots of love !!
It s a very good emirati restaurant, nice place, good food and beautiful view of al Majaz waterfront. Highly Recommended for family and friends .

Loved the ambience, good staff and good food,
Tried this for the first time and safe to say, not disappointed at all, would definitely recommend to friends and family, can’t wait to come back here again.
يعتبر مطعم الفنر من أرقى المطاعم ذات الطابع التراثية الإماراتي العريق الذي يصور التاريخ الإماراتي من طعام وشراب و ديكورات تجربتي نقلتها إلى أصدقائي في الامارات وخارجها وانصح الزائرين والمقيمين بزياره مطعم الفنر.. يستحق التجربه
