Beautiful location with the great views. The staff were courteous and friendly. The food was delicious and the presentation was beautiful (as you can see from the pics). The only downside were the flies as we were sitting outdoors

Visited this place for a late Friday Brunch. With ample dining space, the ambiance is lovely. The staff are super friendly and were quick to serve the dishes. We were first given a welcome salad and bread. We placed an order for the Salad Shirazi, Kashk-o-Bademjan, Maast-o-Mousir, Blue Lemonade, Strawberry Lemonade, Chelow Kabab Kubide, Tikke Masti, Kabab Shahname, Gheymeh Bademjan, and the Special Persian Dessert - Falooda with IceCream.

Loved everything that we had, in particular the Kababs and the Gheymeh Bademjan. These are a must-try. If you are not a fan of eggplants, you will surely change your mind after the Gheymeh Bademjan and the Kashk-o-Bademjan. The dessert was super delicious as well. Overall, excellent value for money and a place that you should definitely visit.

Had been to this beautiful place at Madinat Jumeirah Souq. In the current weather it’s a best place to be by the blue water bay.

It’s a pure Persian taste so if you like a little spicy then ask for it as they make for you. Service and ambience is beautiful. You will love it.

Personally I feel it’s overpriced for one kebab and saffron rice. Bread is good sprinkled with black and white seeds.

Staff is courteous. As mentioned you will love the experience.

On my recent visit to Souk Madinat Jumeirah I came across this amazing Persian Cuisine Restuarant named Anar - it means Pomegranate in Ancient Farsi.

They have still kept their recipes as old as 2500 years alive and have given them a beautiful modern touch .

The food is awesome , especially the way the meat just melts in your mouth,food is supposed to be primarily bland however you can customise the Spices accordingly to your taste and liking.

I opted for the Chelow Kabab Kubide (which is minced lamb ,onion,Persian Saffron,black crushed peppers served with Steamed Saffron Rice) and the Kabab Bakhtiary ( which was the juiciest Grilled Mixed Chicken and Lamb Fillet ,marinated in affron ,fresh lime juice and Shallot Juice .

The food was cooked to perfection,the restaurant staff was courteous..however for the Quantity offered the food was slightly overpriced I feel. However am ready to pay for the beautiful ambience in any case.

As far as parking is concerned it’s free for first two hours as per the Souk rules.

Tried out this beautifully located fine dining resto in Madinat Jumeirah. Warm persian culture, music and colors engulfed us. Very happy vibes! Ordered masti tike for a quick lunch. The meat was slow cooked and extremely tender and juicy. It just melted in my mouth! Love the touch of 2500 year old recipes and rich persian culture that made this lunch completely worth it!

The place is really nice with friendly staff and delicious food. The location is just perfect, since you have a great view of Burj Al Arab just in front of you and its situated in Soak Madinat Jumeirah Dubai, where you can spend some time doing local shopping and after to relax and to try some Persian cuisine.

The experience was close to the gastronomic places. The Kabab Torsh that I ordered which I highly recommend as it is different, a bit on the sweeter side but really very tasty. It came on this marble dish that had coal burning inside and the kebab was sizzling ♨️ The ambience is also pretty top notch and it's a beautiful setting altogether. 😍🤩

The Kebabs had a really nice flavour to it!
Anar has a lovely ambience, with aesthetic interiors & a beautiful view, if you're sitting outside.

An Iranian restaurant in Souq Madinat is a nice place to have lunch or dinner. Has outdoor seating option with beautiful Burj Al Arab view. The interiors is beautifully decorated. Has a tandoor where they make fresh Iranian bread and serve hot with all the orders. We ordered Chelow Kabab Kubide which was very soft and juicy and came along with fresh salad plate.

Wanted to just breathe in the freshness of the air and see the gulls flap their wings around, I decided to sit outside and eat my early supper. Chef Ebadi came along with his charming smile and brought in a good bowl of fresh salad (mint leaves, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, red radish, spring onion, soaked walnuts and fresh basil)and freshly baked Iranian bread topped with black and white sesame seeds. Next came in my Kabab Bakhtiary which was a grilled mix of chic and lamb fillet that was marinated in saffron and fresh lime and shallot juice. It was a melt in the mouth dream that was combined with flavourful pilaf rice. Amazing marriage of delectable food! The interiors were tastefully done but honestly sitting al fresco had an cool edge over dining inside. The ambience takes you to another world altogether. Yes...I will come again...yes....yes..yes. back for more...... #anardubai #anar.dubai @anar.dubai

Anar- a Persian restaurant offering mouth-watering and appetizing late lunch , overlooking the magnificent Burj Al Arab with lake views, is just the elite eat out place you dont cant afford to miss if you are in Dubai!

The juicy and tender kebab skewers together with buttery saffron rice added a very subtle flavor and aroma to my main course.

Anar restaurant atmosphere sets the stage while offering a luxurious taste - totally delighted.

Anar is a quaint Turkish restaurant in the Souk Madinat Jumeirah located by the Canal with a view of the Burj Al Arab.

Recommend taking a table by the canal to enjoy the wonderful ambiance and relaxing sounds of the water.

A very lavish menu awaits you with a mix of kebabs, stews and other delicacies.

A kind Turkish gentleman Mr. Ibadi served us the complimentary salad and bread which was refreshing and reminded me of my childhood days in Kuwait.

We tried the Kabab Torsh platter served with rice which was very succulent and aromatic. We enjoyed the mix of pomegranate, walnuts, herbs and spices used as well as the texture of the meat.

We were well taken care of by Emalou. She highlighted the different delicacies and how each is prepared. Very sweet.

All in all an afternoon well spent with my wife in an amazing setting. #anardubai #anar.dubai @anar.dubai

You deserve more than 5 Stars. You are excellent in all the ways. First I would like to thank you a lot for being so flexible & easy with my late show for special promotion I had. Time was over but still you helped me & managed having me there. I do appreciate your help & understanding. Then starting from your service, your staff were super amazing & pleasant & the service was really quick. The food was the original Farsi taste & well presented. Cleanness was well observed. And what I loved most that you got the most magnificent view & seatings. I recommend it for romantic dates. Thanks a lot for such great experience.

Anar is a great place with really lovely food.
Every meal starts with a small cheese salad and some roti-like bread. We had Kebab Bakhtiyari and Tikke Masti with some Rice.
The Kebabs were cooked perfectly, way too good. The food was really nice overall.
Anar is situated right by the waters at Madinat Jumeirah, so a good view is guaranteed alongside the beautifully designed and decorated interiors.
It’s definitely a must visit, that is, only if the pricing seems friendly enough for your budget.
