Stop searching, this is it.. hands down the best Japanese I’ve had and got me longing for more!
Food was EXCEPTIONAL, every single dish including dessert was made with skill (and love?) difficult to go wrong here really.
Service was very attentive and they took the time to explain where needed including portion sizes which was appreciated.
Ambiance was buzzing, with cool “well to do” yuppie crowd, place was a little crammed indoors but you get to watch them cook! Not sure if they have an outdoor section now the weather is better. Location is in an upscale strip mall, no touristic value or views, but it’s “happening” with quite a few popular eateries.
Price was reasonable for the quality (for Dubai)
Will be back again, and again, and again.. Make the time to visit!
I absolutely love Reif! One of the best japanese dining experiences in the UAE. We had:
Togarashito (10/10 would recommend)
Tamago sando (10/10)
Wagyu sando (9.5/10)
Chicken ramen (9/10.. the shredded chicken in the ramen doesn’t taste good but the broth was refreshing along with the chicken skewer)
Kimchi edamame (8/10)
Kimchi melon (8.5/10)
Black pepper beef kushi (10/10)
Beef gyoza (9.5/10)
Waiters were super nice and sweet. Would definitely visit again!
The Kagoshima Kushiyaki skewer is the Best beef in the world !!! Must try. Everything else is worth it.
The molten chocolate cake with vanilla bean icecream from Reif was divine! The molten lava had chocolate & peanut butter lava oozing out and the icecream was delicious as well. Loved the service! Going back for their main course next time!
Simply Amazing!! Reif is truly a Food God. He put Zuma on the map and won Chef of the Year so many times. Now he has his own Treasure trove of delicious heaven. This is a must visit to Everyone in the Emirates and Visitors to Dubai... He is my #1.. The meal and the staff are top quality. Chippy is the best waiter. Make reservations its an essential, There is a waiting list to get in. Bravo Reif!!! well done!!

It’s not everyday that you leave a restaurant feeling completely satisfied and just happy. Eating here does exactly that
⭐️ Peach Elixir and Shiso Mint Julep were incredible refreshing summer drinks that are great to have before your meal arrives, just to cool down from the heat.
⭐️ Beef Gyoza - This was my first time having a gyoza with a beef filling but it was absolutely delish!
⭐️ Chicken Sando - Oh boy…where do i start? Crispy chicken fillets from the outside and juice tender meat on the inside couple with a lemon mayo sort of salad stuffed in a bread. Loved it!!!!
⭐️ Stuffed wings - Saw this in their specials of the day and so glad that we ordered this. A more flavourful, well cooked and flavourful rendition of a fried chicken. Brilliant!
⭐️ Tiramisu boba - Here’s where the place disappoints. Although the presentation was amazing, i found the Tiramisu to be bitter and the boba wasn’t helping it.
⭐️ Chocolate cake with ice-cream - Loved the combination of a lava cake and butter scotch ice-cream. Did not love the addition of the peanut butter
Despite the just okay dessert, the sheer brilliance of the food makes me want to give it a 5/5. A must-visit for sure
One of my Favorite restaurants in Dubai, I always come here to try different things on the menu. They always surprise me with the new additions on the menu. Good to great food and Chef Refi is very talented. Thanks to Cepi the waiter for his great service
Outstanding food, original menu, great service. Wagyu sando was a delight.
Highly recommended place! Will be back
Hands down the best food I've had in Dubai. Unbelievable main courses (we had the chicken sando and the wagyu beef sando), best edamame I've had (loved that they're grilled) and stunning and tasteful desert (banana passion fruit). I want to have breakfast, lunch and dinner here.
I had one of the best meals in all of my time in Dubai! Their chicken sando and wagyu beef is truly a festival of flavors. It was cooked to perfection and presented in a timely manner.
In addition to that, their service is great, awesome team and absolute delight. And order a dessert, you won’t regret it.
