Stumbled on this place in dubai mall which looked quite enticing "Somewhere" a great choice for a healthy, fresh, Middle Eastern meal. The restaurant has a lovely terrace with fantastic views of Dubai fountain, so at night time you’ll be able to enjoy the fountain show every half hour. The food is fresh, colourful and tasty. Hummus was amazing as was the aubergine starter.
Service: The service is attentive and available at the drop of a hat,but the waiter never came back to check on us. The ambience is pleasant, airy and light. Somewhere is just not exceptional and should travel some more to hone in on its true value proposition.
Ambiance: The concept is very creative. I really like the concept because they reflect the modern minimalist style with a bright cosy lights and with some unique displays with a focal symmetrical mirrors.
What we ordered:.
Salad: 1. Lime Corn Salad.
2. Falafel Salad.
Dippers: 1. Jalapeño Bell Pepper Hummus.
2. Guacamole Hummus.
Slider: Batata Hara Fries.
Main Course: 1. Chicken Musakhan Rolls.
2. Chicken Ozi Puff.
3. Shrimp Kunafa.
Drinks: Somewhere Mocktail.
Dessert: Cerelac Umm Ali.
What's fascinating: The food was amazing from the salad to the desert. You end up ordering more options to enjoy a wider range of flavors and concoctions. I love their pots - well cooked rice, creamy dishes and balanced flavors.
What wasn't expected: Unfortunately, portions are very small so i would recommend sharing dishes instead of single dish per person. It's worth a try but I guess they should slightly increase the portion.
My review: Well I must confess that every dish is tastier than the second one nothing tried was not delicious. I appreciated the quality and the diversity of the food offered at this restaurant. It is a mix of flavors that simply makes you say... hum interesting and then you dip for more.
Food rate: 4.9/5
Overall rate: 5/5
Food not consistently well made, but the best part of the experience was the the waiter Manmohan that served us very well and politely. The waiters on the restaurant are very well trained, but the staff responsible for the waiting list are rude.

Looking for somewhere to go ? Look no further! This place has the perfect Arabic fusion dishes - I've tried almost everything on the menu, the items that stand out are: shawarma in bao buns, batata harra fries, shrimp kunafa and beef shawarma with beetroot rice. For dessert, travel back in time with the cerelac Um Ali! To top it off, if you have visitors you can sit outside, enjoy the fountain show, and the delicious plates!
my love for somewhere is endless.

Went their On this Monday afternoon for lunch, as recommended by my Local friends. Well designed concept and well earned word of mouth!
Have tried their French fries, beetroot hummus, corn salad, fateh & beetroot rice.
All food was as expected apart from the corn salad, I Believe that the spark was missing from the salad that somewhere had put in all other dishes that I have tried.
Nevertheless they have few more dishes that will be coming again to try.
Lone queue to be seated but an Amazing experience overall, we enjoyed the uniqueness of there recipes, they were delicious. Will definitely come back..
I Had Chicken Rolls they were sooo yummy

The fries were so normal
the brown rice and the meat was so mouthwatering
i want to try it once again

Can’t wait to come back and try other stuff!
I enjoyed my lunch there. The menu is limited but had couple of interesting options. The terrace is very nice and has the fountain view. It requires some work though as they had mats that were curled up and people were tripping over it. Also, the seats were not comfy :(
Beautiful venue! Came here with my friends last night and proud to say as an Arab, never had arabic food outside that tasted this good! The three of us shared the shrimp kunafa 🍤, the kubbah with cheese 🧀, the chicken jalapeño fatteh 🥗, the truffle & cheese batata harra fries 🍟, the wagyu arayes pocket 🌯, and the beef shawarma beetroot rice 🍚.. for dessert we had the sticky date pudding and nescafe karak ~ honestly each dish was better than the last!! For sure plan on coming here more often ✨
The food is beyond delicious loved it .
الأكل لذييييييذ بصراحة حبيته و مميز عندها أطباق لذيذه أطباقهم عربيه و الأسعار مناسبة بالنسبة لي انصحكم في المطعم يستحق التجربه
Highly Recommended!!👍🏻
Food is so damn delicious!!
I tried their Chicken Jalapeño Fatteh and Jalapeño bell pepper Hummus and both of them our my favorite!!
Although jalapeño makes food a little spicy but both the dishes were balanced really well and the bell pepper on hummus had a nice taste and a little crisp!!
Their small and cute pita bread/kabus is really soft and fresh!
Ambience is just amazing as you get Dubai fountain view!
Overall this place is definitely A MUST TRY!!🤤😁
I’ve visited somewhere today for Ramadan Futoor, I liked the ambience and the service, the food was yummy we ordered 3 dished and 1 juice, they served us with complementary soup and dates and it was 👌🏻 however, cheese kebba was awful I didn’t like it at all!!! ❌❌

Catchy name. Cozy ambience. Yummy food.
We tried the sticky date pudding and omgee it’s absolutely divine. I loooove the coffee here. The service is top notch. And so instagrammable 👍🏼
One of the nicest places with the best service I’ve tried in a VERY long time. I rarely write reviews but I felt as though this place deserved one. The decor is chic and beautiful, the outdoor seating was amazing and most importantly the FOOD was delicious, so well seasoned and in good quantities. I definitely feel like it’s worth the price.
I’d like to thank our waiters, their service was honestly phenomenal as well as the manager who did all he could to get us a seat outside and prioritized us and made us feel special.
I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family and coming back several times more.
Thank you Somewhere for making us feel so great!
Tried this last weekend. The food was delicious and the location is great. I had the sayyadiya with yogurt and the moussaka. Service was good, too.
Nice food with reasonable prices, loved the environment. Staff is great as well. Mark was excellent, he was patient and he helped us with everything. Will come back soon.

My fav restaurant in Dubai mall honestly,
I just hope they expand the restaurant so we don’t have to wait, because it’s always full, yet I use this application called Eat to reserve a table which is good,
Anyways, I love their guacamole hummus because I reallyyyy love love love avocado it’s my fav, I tried the corn salad and falafel salad both are delicious but I prefer falafel salad, also, I tried their labnah and zatar baby potato it’s SO DELICIOUS I LOVE ITTTTTT 😭😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖💖💖 the chicken musakhan rolls also nice, I tried different dishes honestly loved most of dishes but my favs are:
1. Guacamole
2. Labneh & Zatar baby potato
3. Musakhan rolls
4. somewhere fettah
Like these are my favs I have to order these four dishes when I go to somewhere
If u didn’t try it, u should and trust me you’ll come back to try the rest of the menu, it’s sooo nice and delicious and also i didn’t mention how kind and lovely the staff are, they’re soooo welcoming and just try their best to get the food on time and keep checking on tables and customers just to make sure everything is alright, even tho the restaurant is always crowded!
Its a very classic restaurant located in the fashion avenue of Dubai mall
place is classy with a nice terrace, service is immpecable and they have a delicous Beef Shawarma Beetroot Rice which is a MOST TO TRY !!!
This is my 6th time maybe and i never regret it never bored from it , tasty food great staff ambience and everything is cool my favourite dish is shish barak try their shawarma and musakhan as well , shawarma rice 10/10 😍
The hotel is in a good location of the city, just opposite Deira City Center. The reception staff was welcoming and upgraded our room (we got a 1BR suite, it is spacious and tidy)
They also have a good yet small swimming pool. Breakfast was just okay/limited. Unfortunately that time their wifi suck, they did tried to fix it but took time until evening.
Amazing 5 star food I love everything on the menu especially the beetroot hummus. I regularly visit this resturant and love it more every time!
Somewhere is one of the coolest hang-out places in Downtown. The prices are a bit expensive but the service is impeccable. I particularly like their watermelon mojito and their to-share starters and items from hummus bar. Highly recommended!
The catchy name and reviews from friends got me intrigued to pay them a visit. I must admit that at first glance of the menu, the items definitely grab your interest and tickle the curious within you.
After contemplating for a while, we ordered beef shawarma beetroot rice and chicken ouzi puff. Both the presentation and the taste did not disappoint. I may have my gripe about the quantity but the taste from the unique blend of ingredients is what's governing this review.
Somewhere brings an interesting twist to the otherwise traditionally simple Lebanese/Arabic cuisine accompanied by plain yet chic ambience and a great view if you get the chance of being seated in the restaurant's balcony. Definitely worth a visit!
"Somewhere" in Dubai Mall has a variety of popular Mediterranean food with "somewhere" touches to make the menu more special. It was a tasty experience combined with a good service and indoor ambiance. Next visit will sit outdoor. Recommended! (See images caption for each rating)
YUM YUM YUM! One of my newest favs in Dubai! Somewhere is a fusion Lebanese (or Levantine) restaurant, with the weirdest yet tastiest creations.
Make sure to order the Kibbeh with cheese, the Guacamole Hummus, the Beetroot Hummus, the lime corn salad, the Wagyu Fatteh or the Somewhere Fatteh, Truffle & Cheese Batata Harra, and of course the Beef Shawarma Beetroot Rice (AMAZING). For dessert both the Cerelac Umm Ali and the Karak French Toast are reallyyyy good.
I was surprised to find such amazing food, tucked away in the quiet Dubai mall..
The service in general was attentive and polite which I really appreciate.
Would I return back to somewhere ? That was would be a loud YES! I love finding restaurants witch delicious food, great ambiance and exceptional service, and somewhere ticks all the boxes.
P.S. they have a massive outdoor area, witch would be perfect for the upcoming cooler months.
If you are fence about going to somewhere, I would say, stop overthinking and just go, you won’t be disappointed.
So we're trying out the restaurants in dubai mall this week and everyone was talking about somewhere and we finally went there. What an amazing restaurant from the moment you reach it outside till you get in, the waiter wissam was very polite and greeted us upon arrival, he explained the story behind the restaurant and it's concept, took our orders with his suggestions and omg the food was so amazing, the service was excellent, the decor is amazing and the drinks were delicious. Will definitely visit again to try the rest of the menu. Great work somewhere!

If you haven't already, then bookmark this place. The pictures on Instagram may have your attention, but visiting this place and experiencing the food is something that will leave you spellbound. An upmarket restaurant in the extended part of Dubai Mall, the glitzy fashion avenue, Somewhere is developed on a simple concept, awakening the traveler within you by feeding you food that reminds you of "somewhere". In our case, we were exported to a world where the fusion of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines were combined.
The interiors are classy, from granite marbles floors to an array of travel books that give you insights about planning a holiday, this restaurant is chic, classy, and yet simple. The ambiance is soothing and the music complements the overall theme of the restaurant. The servers move around swiftly and before you know it, your entire meal is served on a table before you. The service is that prompt and efficient. They don't let you blink an eye.
We started off with some mocktails, and while my husband tried the passion fruit mojito I went in for a watermelon mojito. Both were served chilled, presented beautifully and were thirst quenching too. For those who like their drinks to be a tad bit sweet, watermelon mojito should be on your list. We then moved to Truffle and Cheese Batata Harra fries and these were every bit delectable. The spices were balanced, little truffles were present in moderation and overall these fries left an after taste that was deliciously pleasing, to say the least.
Post the fries we tried the Jalapeno hummus and were smitten by the taste and flavor. The little shavings of beetroot, the creamy hummus and the tangy jalapeno made for a perfect dip that came with a basket of complimentary pita bread. The pita bread was small round in shape, fluffy in texture and soft while eating. Our bread basket was refilled almost instantly too. Even though our stomachs were full by now, our heart wasn't and hence we ended the meal on a sweet note with Tamarind Date dessert.
The Tamariya Bites which had a flavor dates, tamarind and was topped with some Arabic ice cream on top. The toffee date pudding was delectable and fulfilling. It was every bit satisfying and we couldn't help but finish the dessert impeccably as if it was never there in the first place.
Loved the food, service, ambiance and the carefully curated menu. Worth the binge, worth the experience. Will visit again for sure.
The place concept is very modern, the outdoor setting is good yet the indoor was a bit cramped and crowded for me. The food comes in measured plates. The decorations of the place and attention for details is just perfect, also the food was worth visit, I recommend it.
Whole new concept, Manu been mixed from different cuisines with small portions where you can tastes different dishes. #RecommendedByObaid ...
Good experience in somewhere really the food is very teasty we have had Hommos, patata hara and shrimps it's very good and the price it's not expensive plus the service was woooooow from Abdullah he is so professional thanks Abdullah.
This place is just amazing and unique... they do perfect things ... i tried kubbah with cheese: it is very tasty , also tried guacamole hummus and shawarma with beetroot rice : exceptionally delicious... this is one of my favorite places ... not very pricey for the great food and friendly staff and ambience. Deserves 5 stars ✨ 😍
مكان رائع و اكل لذيذ ... جربت كبة بالجبنة و حمص بالافوكادو و صحن شاورما مع رز شمندر ... الاكل عندهم متميز و لذيذ جداً .... خمس نجوم بامتياز و اسعار معقولة على الجودة العاليه و الخدمة المميزة ... اصبح ضمن قائمة الاماكن المفضله ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😍
The Resturant is very good and it worths the waiting, it took us 30 minutes to get seated and we where 2. The food came fast and it was hot. Chicken shawarma pao and the corn salad are the best, in addition to the beef shawarma rice.
Special thanks for Akshay who made sure that we are having a great experience.
I highly recommend this restaurant.
I visited the place many times. The most delicious dishes i've tried:
Chicken musakhan
Somewhere fatteh
Shish barak
CHicken shawarma & beef
The most mouthwatering dish is "Um Ali" one of the BEST!!!

I’ve been quite fascinated to visit here since knowing this was a concept restaurant and that too related to travel.
Got around to going here to dinner one weekday evening. I booked a table since I read that it should be done through Zomato reviews. But when I got there, only 5 tables were taken and plenty were available. We were kindly greeted by the host and was taken to our preferred table. He showed us around the restaurant before we took a seat.
I loved the ambiance and decor of the place. It was so chic and modern and had a vibe of a cafe too. Their menu selection is limited but you’ll definitely find something for you in there. At the back of restaurant is a family area where you have great view of the fountain.
We went for the Kunafa Shrimp which is a popular item of the restaurant, Chicken Shawarma Bao & Crispy Chicken Jalapeño Fateh. For drinks we got the popular Passion Fruit Mojito and Watermelon Mojito. The watermelon Mojito was just too good! It’s a must try. So refreshing and the flavors are perfect. The best food items was the Fateh. It was filling and filled with flavors that’ll make you go Wow. Everything in the dish went so well with each other. The chips on top was a bit stale though. The chicken Shawarma Bao’s Bin was extremely soft and it was so tasty. But quite small in quantity.
For desserts we went for the Karak French Toast which I read in the reviews were a must try. The presentation of the dessert was so cool with the golden tea pot. Loved the concept. It tasted so different and amazing at the same time. The only negative thing is that they only gave me knife and spoon for the dessert. But the dessert came with French Toast that you cannot properly slice with a knife & Spoon. Even if the idea was for the toast to soak in the syrup, you can’t really even flip the toast to the other side to soak more with a spoon or a knife. They should definitely provide the customer with the Fork too.
The Zomato management needs to upload the Menu pics, please.

What a fun concept with gorgeous decor and courteous service!
We ordered:
1) Guacamole Hummus with Tortilla Chips (8/10) - super fresh, rich and tasty. Loved it!
2) Shrimp Kunafa (9/10) - my favourite dish from Somewhere, it’s so addictive and easy to eat and eat and eat some more.
3) Beef Tenderloin Shawarma Beetroot Rice with tahini sauce (8/10) - very flavourful, creative fusion dish! The presentation enhanced the experience even further! We loved it, but the portion is pretty generous.
4) Chicken Ouzi Puff (6.5/10) - puff pastry ratio was a bit too much, there was a lot of dough. Not a fan of double carbs (rice and bread). But the presentation, once again, was very eye catching. I would not order this again though.
5) Passionfruit Mocktail (9.5/10) - no wonder everyone orders this. It’s delicious, refreshing and satisfyingly sweet!
6) Kunafa Croissant (8/10) - what an interesting recreation! Taste was on point, croissant was very flaky, we liked it a lot. (Although next time I’ll try their Baklava shake instead...looks so scrumptious!)
FEBRUARY 1 2019 EDIT:
7) PARMESAN TRUFFLE BATATA HARRA Fries (9/10) - okay, I am a fries-addict but this one was seriously delicious. My family loved it!
8) Chicken Shawarma Bao (7/10) - loved the crunch factor, the soft buns, but overall flavour was average.
9) Jalapeno Hummus (8/10) - Nasser liked this one much more than the Avocado. Both are good in my book.
10) Lamb dumpling fattet with rice (9.5/10) - my current favourite! Yummm. Try this for sure!
SOMEWHERE, you stole my foodie heart. I love how creative and adventurous you are with your dishes. Bravo!!! I will be back for sure.
Happy eating 🌷
Nasser Bahlooq
Such a crowded place always!
I never pass on a Passion fruit drink so started off with that followed by some Arabic bread and Beetroot Hummus. Can't tell how much I loved it!
Chicken Musakkan Rolls (can't remember the exact name) was so so good. While I truly can't remember the rest, it was all suggested by Clinton. Try to have him serve your table because all the food suggested makes you just want to eat and not use your phone.
Kudos to Clinton for making my experience at the restaurant so good. The Chefs too deserve the greatest applaud for the same.
Although I did not have desserts, it was worth it and I came in twice after that!
Lunch at Somewhere was authentic Arabic food. Started with Hummus black angus beef and falafel salad. Both dishes super. Hummus was the best I have had so far. This was followed by the much popular beef shawarma boa and the arayes cheese slider. Both not as good as the former. Good service and ambience
Mediterranean food with a twist, love love the concept!! And the food was sooo delish!! It was so interesting that I can’t wait to go back and try everything on their menu!
The service was also great even though the place was too busy.
visited the place many times, worth every penny. tried the Guzi rice taste delish it s a rice with ckiken on a puff pastry with souse on top.. all the fatta dishes are fantastic... also tied the baby potato and the cheese cones all good. the Pssion fruit mojitoo is one of a kind...
restaurant is always buzy but service is good..
5 - the food tasted very good, the concept which is inspired by travels is a nice idea. The portions are also perfect for sharing, not too much. Also, the staff were great with very good recommendations of the menu!
Loved the place and food.. I recommend beef shawarma with rice and the falafel salad plus chicken ouzi was really tasty.. passion fruit juice was good
It has become one of my favourite places. What a cool concept. Giving new life and style to Arabic street food. All i can say is its a must go. Amazing ambiance , friendly staff and outstanding service.
“Innovation” was my first impression about this nice place. First my order was Hummus with avocado, Chicken Fatta, Chicken musakhan, and Sheesh Barak (check the pictures). I know these are traditional dishes, however the touch of contemporary taste and ingredients were infused with old traditional dishes to present something up to date and extra delicious.
Going through the dishes was more like a journey for my taste buds. I liked the hummus with avocado and the chicken shawarma. the musakhan was delicious not extra ordinary. the fatta was extremely deliciously off the chart with nice Idea to dip the chips into the Fatta. The Sheesh Barak, how I can describe it!!!! lets say this is the best sheesh barak that I ate in my life.
The service was excellent here, and the waiter was explaining the restaurant’s concept of traveling somewhere around the world and there are books about countries that you are allowed to pick and read and help you imagine SOMEWHERE.
Overall highly recommended.
One of my top favorites ! i enjoyed every dish chicken jalapeno fatta was the best the staff are really friendly and they helped us with food choices.
I would’ve rated it 5 out of 5, but for the issue that happened with the waiting list, and us not getting our drinks until we finished our food, although the food was great, amazing infusion of food.
located in the new extention of dubai mall this arabic fusion place is worth a try .. The menu is small but the range of selections is good. I had the chicken musakhan and somewhere fattah both which i liked and recommend. The lime corn salad was ok the dressing was too light i would prefer it better marinated . The beetroot rice beef shawarma was my fav very tasty and gets better with added tahini sauce.. Will visit again..
22 AuG 2018 :best gathering and friendly team,
I will share with you the menu that today I order from it:
Hummus meat
Somwhere fattah
Corn lime salad
Shawarma chicken and meat
Sayadya fish
Chilli fries
Juice :
Passion fruit ( best seller)
Note: the restaurant is always crowded and u need to pre-book a table
Somewhere is literally from somewhere else! Out of this planet...amazing food.. loved the sauces. Coming back to try more from the menu. Friendly staff good job
Love the vibes of the restaurant, the simply concept but luxury. Located inside the Dubai Mall in the new section Fashion Ave, the beautiful atmosphere and also nice staffs. I got my brunch with my friend in here at night and the view is awesome overlooking the Burj Khalifa downtown.
One of the most beautiful restaurants in Dubai Mall excellent service and delicious eating
Looooove the food here., basically try everything The same owners of SALT, Parkers, and Switch own it. Wish them all the best👌🏼😋
Good food but limited menu. Good service but the only thing I felt that could improve is the tea should come with proper teaspoons rather than with take out stirrers.
