Staff are great (especially when hiding your birthday cake!) All food on the menu is a must try! Go for their spider roll and Thai iced tea 😉
You can check their promotions in Groupon! ☑️
Their customer service is over the top especially the Filipino lady named Arlene who extended help to surprise my friend for her bday. Thanks to u! And their pad thai is always amazing. Highly recommeded.
My first visit at Smoking Doll and I had a good dining experience.
They have an extensive menu & a lot of options for Sushi specially.
The Dessert - Mango sticky Rice with Coconut cream stole the show. Personally not a huge fan of coconut but the entire combo works👌🏻

Their sushi is awesome! The best plan is to go for an unlimited sushi and try them all!
With their high-end interior design and trendy ambiance and overlooking sea and Emirates Palace offers a great dining experience to enjoy with friends and family. An Asian Fusion destination where is the finest quality of Asian cuisine that crafted from fresh ingredients; famous for its intense flavors brings a taste of the Orient to the capital. With the perfect blend of sweet, sour, salty and spicy flavors that satisfy your taste buds with a variety of textures and fragrances. Superb food and dining experience. Kudos to all their friendly staff. Don't forget to try their 54 pcs Sushi combo highly recommended.
Nice place in a nice quite mall on corniche. Enjoyed the food especially the Sushi and Thai curry. The street food barbecue was also very good although I though the street food is a bit overpriced for the portion served. Quality of the food was top notch and so was the staff service.
The food is horrible,pad Thai has no taste at all,the Tom yum soup has no taste of any Thai herbs especially the sushi is like a leftover food from yesterday.
Wasting time and money.
I regret to order in your restaurant.
احلى سوشي بصراحه و خدمتهم جيده شكرا Franklin
Definitely worth it!!! I wont stop coming back over and over again. . .
Made the right decision to celebrate my wife's birthday here. The food were great, service wes excellent all the staff were all nice specially Franklin.

Loved the service and food. Our server Franklin was very friendly and attentive. He did some good recommendations. Will come back for sure.
Wonderful dinner experience we had! Food was great (4stars for it) but 5 stars for service by pur server, Franklin. He noticed that my wife was pregnant and on his own offered her an extra pillow, ensured the glasses were sterelized,made sure the sea food was well cooked too. He was awesome,with an ever smiling face served us like we were at home.
Great view overlooking the emirates palace.
Overall value for money.

Oh yeah, their food is instaramable! No need to filter the pic to appreciate. ☺️☺️
I was in AD and entered Nation towers by chance. I had a craving for sushi this week so I tried Sushi Salmon Tartare. It was excellent, the flavors and you could feel the fresh salmon. Well done Chef Jomar ! I also had my favorite beef thai salad, and Thanks God it was a real one tasty with lots of beef !!! The restaurant is nice with a sublime view of the corniche. I will definitely come back inchallah. Thanks to Franklin who served me with a pleasant attitude !
The food was delicious and very rich in flavor. Our waiter Franklin was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu different ingredients. Nice ambiance with lots of natural light.
Frankline the server was very kind and knowledgeable! Will for sure visit again!

We really like this place. They do amazing thai food ! The food is flavorful, natural and fresh.. Thank you mr. Ali the manager for accomodating us and frank for a very 5 star service.. 100% we will come back again 😁
Loved all the food we ordered; staff service is superb (especially Kuya Frank); relaxing ambiance with a great view of the sunset. We will definitely come back 😍 worth the money
Best sushi in Abu Dhabi, but what’s better than the sushi is our server Upeksha😍 she’s so friendly and her smile is infectious, and she will help you with any special requests (we didn’t want shrimp in our rolls and was more than happy to assist!) Very recommended 😍
I love their sushi and with Zomato Gold it's pretty good deal! Highly recommended! Frank was serving me very well. Thanks to him as well! SE

Great food! Great service! Really liked the first waiter who came to serve us even taught us how to use the chopsticks but the second one was rude since he saw that we had a Groupon ticket for the food.
Amazing food with a decent ambiance and amazing server Franklin, he was so helpful in making us chose the dishes!
Will definitely visit again!
This is a great place to have Thai curries and Shushi. Doll Roll is one of my favorite. All three thai curries (yellow, green, and red) are good. Mango sticky rice is uncommon and tasty dessert.
Had a taste of Japan and Thailand for dinner with the girls today. Thanks to our server, Franklin, who's been helpful for our food choice. The food was great.
The freshness and tasty blend of the sushi rolls' perfect! The steaming savoury pad thai were really good in every slurp😋
The high-end-restaurant feel is a plus👌
We'd definitely come back 😊
Food were great and worth the price. I also loved Kuya Franklin he was so kind and prompt assisting our needs. Definitely will come back! I recommend pad thai and thai iced tea and mojito.
Best Thai/Japanese restaurant in the cityy!! We ordered 3 different types of sushi and a noodle dish. We were served by a waiter called Franklin. He was very sweet and polite. I definitely recommend the place for anyone who wants to have a good time!
Celebrated a friends birthday in Smoking Doll. Their food selection is amazing and very friendly staff too. Staff let us brought our own cake and even helped us surprise our friend. Location is also amazing, facing the marina and can watch the sunset. Highly recommended!
Very nice Asian food i would recommend everyone to the experience and they have juices of all kinds and mohito thank you for the beautiful service
So pleased to have found an Asian treasure in Abu Dhabi! The sushi s were fresh and perfectly done! We ordered almost everything on the menu as we were a big gang. There was sushi, green Thai curry, wok noodles and rice combo. Loved the hospitality of the staff. Let the waiter assist you with your order, you wouldn't regret it!
It is always a best experience to dine in this place.. the ambience is so relaxing and cozy.. the crews are attentive and polite.. dinning here like twice or thrice a month.. food are sumptuous..
What a wonderful dinner, greeted by friendly staff and of course, great view of Corniche beach on the side as the sun sets as we taste an Asian-fusion cuisine. For starters, we had salmon sushi, fresh fish and tastefully done, we were surprised to get 8 pieces for its price (I am not complaining, we are delighted!) and we had chicken satay -- moist meat partnered with crunchy peanut sauce. For the mains, ordered Shrimp Pad thai, good for 2, shrimps was succulent and noodles were cooked just right, I just think that the sauce was a lot which overwhelmed the totality of the dish. Drinks were fine and just normal -- Thai Milk tea and Thai Iced Coffee. Although we are full, we had to make room for sweets, Mango sticky rice paired with coconut milk, freshly prepared, warm and not too sweet.
We went with our Dubai friends and we all liked the menu and taste. We used Groupon voucher and the restaurant was good enough to let us use 2 vouchers. Service was with smile from Mr Prasad. And food never disappoints there!
Amazing atmosphere, great food, and such friendly service. Our waitress - Marina - went out of her way to makes us feel welcome and comfortable.
I really recommend this amazing place. We just had our dinner there. Nice food and very friendly service with special thanks to Marina.in addition the view is nice as well in Nation towers
Just had dinner there, the atmosphere is amazing, seating is cozy, and the food is wow, special thanks to the staff Marina who made sure we are having a good time
Mouth watering sushi and great service from our waiter Franklin and sushi chef Henry. Me and my friend tried their special selection that came with eel, it was her first time trying it and she loved it.
A go to Asian Fusion restaurant in Abu Dhabi! We were welcomed into a near place with friendly service. They’ve got a stunning interior and a great view which overlooks Emirates palace and the Abu Dhabi corniche. We ordered Prawn Tom Yum soup and the combo set (54pieces). Since we were celebrating a friend’s birthday, they gave us 10 pieces of complementary sushi. Franklin, our waiter, and Ali, the manager, couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. So thank you SmokingDoll team for a great experience!
Had a chance to dine at this resto with my family in our random trip to AUH. They offered us their eid dinner set for 339 aed, Thanks to Franklin for his recommendation and giving us brief info on our selection. They didn’t failed us, even more than what we expected. The set was more than enough for six persons, the salmon was just perfectly cooked, juicy on the inside, beef skewers were tender enough and curry has the right spiciness. It also comes with a free drinks of your choice, we chose mango, strawberry and peach which we all love. Ambience is cool and relaxing, service is commendable with special mention to Mr. Franklin who never fail to deliver every time we ask for assistance. Food and service are both beyond expectations. Had a great time!
I’ve visited Smoking Doll before to try out their sushi & that’s when I first started liking sushi.
They’ve got stunning interiors and a great view.
Tried out their Asian Street food which includes dumplings, Thai curry, a variety of skewers, Asian slaw and much more. Highly recommend this place since they make everything so well & despite visiting a few times before, I haven’t found one flaw, be it the service or the food.
My fave place😊 delicious asian plates and rolls!
Mr. Dranreb was kind enough to serve us these tasty dishes! It was quiet because of ramadan and we went there for lunch but definitely a busy resto all the time. Highly recommended and must try!
Very nice restaurant, great food, staff was super friendly especially the waitress that served us. She even talked french with us. Thank you Marina
Loved the food, ambience, and the view. Order was taken and served by Frank with great service. We'll definitely be back here to try some of the other food.
Always a good choice. I like everything in the menu, but specially love the Massaman beef curry. Service is good as well, but tonight Frank made the difference, was outstanding.
I had a great fine dine experience here as my best friend celebrated her birthday. They offered a savory foods (thai and jap). They have a very accommodating staffs especially sir frank and chef jerry. Will definitely come back and recommend to my friends here in auh.
Good food, ambiance & service (our server is franklin)! The staff are very accomodating, they got big servings too. Most fave food ~ pad thai & mango sticky rice 🤤
I was invited by a friend to have our dinner here earlier. foods are tasty!!! We enjoyed it. Specially the view its so lovely. Everything was perfect, except when we ask them to serve all the foods together, but they served it one by one. Aside from that all was perfect. We will come back soon again. Thank you to all the staffs.
I came to Abu Dhabi for the first time with my friends, having lived in Dubai for a while and never been!
We dined here before heading out for some drinks, and we where absolutely delighted. I couldn’t fault a single thing from the food to the service.
Our server was franklin, (if I remember correctly) and he made sure we had a lovely meal.
He was very welcoming from beginning and very patient with us (fussy eaters). His service was absolutely first class and we would for sure return to this restaurant.
Thankyou for such a lovely meal.
I like the place , food and the crew in this place. The location is nice. The food is well prepared and mouthwatering that you can’t resist not to eat. The crew are very friendly especially Sir Franklin who assisted / serve our food. 👌😉
The most amazing and delicious food. Our server Franklin was exceptional. He was so engaged and recommended the best dish. He made our experience at this restaurant amazing
It’s just amazing to have dinner at smoking doll specially the service provided by the person Franklin is just awesome, been to many Restaurent’s but the way Franklin served here I must say he is THE BEST
We had a great experience last Monday at Smoking Doll! When we arrived we were greeted warmly by the staff. The place was cozy and had a good ambience. I loved the Pad Thai as it tasted so wonderful (thanks to Mr. Franklin for recommending it) and the sushi rolls we ordered were very good too. I find the price reasonable since I enjoyed the food. It’s not too expensive for around 40-60Dhs per plate. Will surely come back for that flavorful taste! Keep it up!
The place for Asian cuisine in town, ambiance is nice. We were greeted by Franklin who gave us recommendations for the food. Many thanks Franklin for the amazing service.
We highly recommend sushi platter! We enjoyed every bite of it and of course the pad thai is really good (pad thai with prawns). Staff are accommodating and courteous. Ambiance is good and relaxing.
First time to eat here at Smoking Doll, ambiance, and food prepared by Chef Henry's all great as well Franklin's being attentive to all our requests. I'd rate them 5star, highly recommended and cant wait for my next visit
Very good. Perfect service, served by marina in the nation towers very very very very very very good like fantastic and very very very very nice

We were the only customers as we came before 5pm. Staffs were friendly and nice. The place was clean and very welcoming. Couch was comfy. When the waiter gave us prawn crackers, i asked if it was cooked in chicken oil as i was allergic to chicken. The waiter immediately asked the chef and then later on advised us that indeed it was. So we preferred not to have some. When our order came, he apologized because it took a long time before food was served (which was actually not very long)... he explained that he asked the chef to cook all our orders again and not to use any chicken oil and stocks. It was so nice of him and I really appreciate his initiative. Thanks Frank for being such a considerate and kind staff. We enjoyed our date! We will definitely be back.
Delicious and attractively priced, soul and stomach filling Business lunch. We tried Sushi and Thai and both were winners. Nothing over the top or something you haven’t tried before. But the food is perfectly flavoured, for someone who prefers mildly spiced. Comfortable and relaxed seating, convenient location.
I like the food The restaurant serve very High quality Sushi and good service but the only thing is not satisfying that they are very slow in serving the dishes
Me,my husband and mom had dinner here and we enjoyed the food and service. Lovely ambiance. Food was delicious. The filipino guy who served us was very friendly and helpful. Check out my photographs, this restaurant is worth a try 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 and I will definitely come back. 🙂
We tried this place once and it was a very nice experience, I liked the food and the interior, Plus the staff was extremely nice and helpful especially Franklin who helped us a lot and made our experience at Smoking doll even better! I Would definitely recommend this place for a group or even for a romantic dinner because of the design that adds some privacy!
Pros:
- the food is delicious
- portion sizes are good
- the atmosphere is very relaxed and the setting is very nice
- they have deals and discounts (entertainer)
- the staff are friendly and attentive
- very nice location with a nice view
Cons:
- I honestly didn’t find any.

I had been wanting to try this place for a long time and finally I tried it with a friend. From the moment we stepped inside to the moment we left, we were well taken care of. The menu selection was great, and the tastes were outstanding! I seriously recommend this place for dinner with friends or even a quiet date (the setting is perfect).
Nice little restaurant tucked away at the back of the nations tower mall. The Thai food was very good and seemed very fresh. Service was good and It wasn’t very expensive. They deliver too.
Tried this place upon recommendation by a friend.
Had a delightful Thai curry with Jasmine rice.
Really pretty interiors and friendly staff.
Went there using a Groupon voucher and is quite the value for money

Celebrated my husband’s 40th birthday in smoking doll. He really enjoyed the great food and quality service (thank you Franklin!). Sushi platter and Thai milk tea are big hit! Love it!❤️
Best Sushi platter ever! Food is really good at fair prices. We also love the Bibimbop andthe Thai Green Curry. The service is excellent - thanks to Franklin who provided warm and accommodating service.
Amazing offer from Groupon for my sister's birthday. Frank was very accommodating, he helped by suggesting which sushi and noodles to get. We were able to taste most of the sushi, the Green and Red Dragon Rolls were great but the Smoking Roll was amazing. The Beef Pad See Ew is delicious. Their Peach Iced Tea was sweet. We didn't like their classic Lemon Iced Tea, it was too sour. Overall, amazing experience.
Celebrated my birthday in their Nation Towers branch. Staff were friendly and polite. The food was great especially the green curry. It was impressive over all. Special thanks to Franklin for assisting us. Love to come back again... Kudos!
I love this place so much, the Nation towers branch. They have the best Thai yellow curry (chicken), vegetable rice & maki rolls! It's a tad bit pricey but worth it. ❤ always looking forward to a good meal here.
I love this place and can't complaint about anything here. The thai food and sushi here is mouth watering good.
Thai green curry, yellow curry, tom khao soup , sushi un limited platter, pad thai are my recommendation.
If you are a thai food fan then this is the place. I also love the ambiance. It is lovely and very authentic.

Ambiance to this place is chic which i love. I just recently moved to abu dhabi, so going around and searching for good places to eat is one thing i love doing, let alone still in search for a good Thai place. I came here few months back but didn’t get a chance to leave a review. I ordered pad see ew, pad ka prow, curry (not sure if i ordered panang or green), and of course sticky rice w/ mango is a meal ender 😋. I have high standards when it comes to ka prow as i have tried all versions you can imagine from Thailand and all over Los Angeles! 😁 This was not bad, i’d give it a good 3.2/5. Well, overall, it was great. Great variety tho i only have 1 stomach to fill. I’d love to go back and try more on the menu. Shoutout to Franklin! Great server and polite. Wont fail to mention either that they are on Groupon, so thats kinda neat! Makes it more inviting to come back.
We ate here last Thursday night with my family.
We truly enjoyed our overall experience from the delightful food to the great service by Frank and Ms. Madonna. Salute to all the chefs for preparing our food!TomYum and Smoking Roll are the best!😊😍👌👏
A friend of mine was celebrating his birthday and we decided to go to smoking doll as it is one of our favorite restaurants. We decided to try something new but at the same time also wanted to satisfy our cravings. For starters we got the smoking doll roll which is one of the signature dishes. Practically melts in your mouth. My friend got the pad si which was also interesting and unique in taste. Another main dish that we ordered was the green curry which is one of our absolute favorites in this restaurant. The taste brings you to Thailand. I was bold enough to try the bibimbap. A Korean dish that really stood out from all the other dishes. It was a mix of flavors and spices plus the soup that came with the dish really complemented it. Needless to say our list of favorites has grown.
Ambiance is so posh and cozy plus the view when seating near the window is a wow factor. Great selection of food. We ordered Bibimbap, Smoking Doll Roll and Green curry. These are must-tasted on their menu. Drinks are also impressive. So thirst quenching and surprising.
Restaurant ambiance is very welcoming. Clean and orderly. Staffs were all kind and nice specially waiter sandeep and frank.. 😍😍😍 They entertained us as guest not as customers only. The food was prepared as to our liking and was served fast. We definitely be back ❤❤❤
It was a peaceful and satisfying experience. I really like the thai lemongrass chicken wings very tasty. Definitely will come back again.. I love smoking doll nation towers
Their food is the kind that will tease your mouth, one that plays wonderful flavors in your palate.. plus attentive service from their wait staff, superb lighting and ambience, it’s a must try! If you’ve had, then a return trip should be in order! Will definitely be coming back
PS. I forgot the name of their Filipino waiter (Kuya kabayan), kudos to his great service, he was also very knowledgeable in recommending must-try dishes, and patiently explained that a particular ingredient called morning glory is actually kangkong in our native tongue.
The ambience of the restaurant is great .. We ordered their Cashew & Chicken, Meat Dumplings & Thai Curry with Rice .. Overall the food was great although I didn't eat the Thai curry very gingery (spicy) nevertheless we enjoyed our Lunch.
Love this place! Have been a few times, the food is always delicious, the service is great, especially Franklin who is always so accommodating, there's a very nice atmosphere in there and it's a great place to go with a group. Highly recommended! :)
It's a delicious Asian restaurant especially the Tamim soup, and treated the staff more than great and very kind and I wish them luck and especially Mamgula where he relaxed the validity of the Coupon
Every my experience of smoking doll dining was really amazing for it's value. Tom Yam soup is really delicious. I liked most of sushi (except crispy salmon roll, but it's my personal preference). It's a perfect place for sushi lovers.
Nice place with cozy ambiance. Excellent service from the staffs especially Mr. Franklin and delicious foods. Highly recommended. Thanks and God bless.
