The restaurant atmosphere is really nice and the revolves and gives a panoramic view of Dubai . The staff are really welcoming and friendly. They have glass up at the food section and chefs serve the food for you so it is organized and tackles the Covid issue.
It is a very nice buffet style and there is 3 main sections:
1-Cold section nice variety of Salads and cold cuts and sushi and sea food stand (oysters, Crabs, shrimps)
2-Hot section International with very nice variety options and cuisines Chinese/Thai, Indian, Grill, Arabic. Also Pasta made to order.
3-Desert very nice selection of deserts
Great place to make a new memory. It was a good experience. Food was great too. The staff were really good. They checked on us every time. It’s a little expensive but worth trying . Had a great anniversary date night.
Dined here on a Wednesday and the place was packed as Al Dawaar just reopened. Lovely place for a date night.
The revolving restaurant adds a unique dining experience and the food was excellent.
Food is presented according to safety guidelines and we enjoyed the overall ambiance of the restaurant.
Enjoyed the variety of food available for the dinner buffet. Especially loved the dumplings, salads, sea food and other main course items. Great quality food and fine dining experience.
Thank you to Avik, Aflal and Chris for the great service.
Get ready to revolve! Dubai’s only revolving restaurant the legendary Al Dawaar is back. Located in the 25th Floor of Hyatt Regency in Deira, Al Dawaar is a must-visit destination for both the tourists and the residents. It is open for dinner from Wednesday to Saturday and for Sky Brunch on Friday. The restaurant and lounge not only offers a stunning view of the city skyline with Burj Khalifa, sea and the creek, it also serves up great food and drinks.
Server didn’t attend to us until we called out, later service was fast.
At all counters, since buffet was not self service there was a long queue. Less choices for vegetarians in the main course and serving rice and dal in Indian food did not do justice!
It was fun to have the restaurant revolve and finding the buffet counter, beautiful views.
Before all of this Covid storm fell on us, me and my family and cousins had a dinner at this fabulous place, everything was so great from the amazing ambience, great tasting food, and service. This place is really a treat. You can literally spend hours, just relaxing and enjoying your time there. Definitely a must visit!

This place is the best for all sort of celebration. It is the only revolving restaurant in uae so far! The ambiance and food is amazing! Honestly it’s worth a visit and specially for romantic dinner. Would highly recommend!
Each and everything in the buffet was exciting and delicious! The food was made fresh and the serving was super fast. We had indian, Italian, juices, bakery, sweets everything. Loved it
Afzal was very polite and was very helfpul . He managed to get a very nice green tea even if that was not a part of my pkg . Amit made amazing sushi and it was delicious . Keep the good work on Hospitality . My stay here became better because of their hospitilaity . Cheers !!
Try it, its an authentic experience
We were there with a treat from son and daughter in law on our wedding anniversary. We were well looked after by the staff and served with an anniversary cake at the end of our meal. We had a fabulous evening.
Delicious food and great server Ahmad was very nice and helpful.
Went for our Anniversary and was not disappointed.
Being vegetarian they made us veg dishes and made us feel comfortable. Enough said!
Only suggestion for visitors is to go during day as sea view is missed during night.
Very friendly staff! Excellent starters, a big range of choices. Good desserts too. However the main courses were underwhelming. Overall a good experience, it was nice to be in a revolving restaurant, definitely something different :)
OMG this place is the beautiful among all cafes in Dubai the Ambience is the best part of this place the outdoor seating is just like heaven. Shaurya place for date the loved ones hospitality is is very good
Great food and great service by the staff of al dawaar restaurant. View is incredible and would recommend for any occasion. They took extra care by making a cake for our anniversary.
Plenty of reviews out there telling this place isn't a "stand still". No doubt the view is mesmerizing and having the floor move beneath you is a class apart, but beyond that, the food is exquisite. The servers don't step a foot wrong. All on point and polite. Unfortunately I was seated right next to a family with half a dozen of lovely little juveniles who added a bit of noise in the air but the restaurant not at fault. A must visit.
Food was ok, not impressive, but good. The place is unique and worth visiting. Probably better during the day. Fun for kids. Mine enjoyed the rotating room. Great desert selection.
Great food and a super oppertunity to get a 360 degree view of Dubai while you eat. Make the most of it at be sure you have the time to enjoy the view -good photo opportunity.
It was a very beautiful nice experience. The atmosphere, the service and the idea of the restaurant itself is nice. Food variety was good but the tastes were excellent. Will definitely come back and recommends it for others.
The rooftop Emphasis very beautiful people are enjoying their at day and night. The food of this place also very tasty, I ordered Sushi which was very tasty.
Lovely views and good selection of dishes. Good ambiance and friendly staff. When. Booking a table try to be seated as close as possible to the window if you wish to take the most of this experience

Lovely atmosphere friendly staff
Good food
Quantity of food was a bit less
Complete view of the dubai old and new skyline
Great Ambiance....
I had a creme brulee and oysters, both the dishes were quite amazing but I most enjoyed the oysters since I really like seafood so it was a good experience
Amazing and delicious food, great romantic ambiance, and friendly staff! Every item on the buffet was made to perfection...we’ll definitely come back!
Really amazing food with nice dynamic view. It is also funny to see family members get lost to find the table after it turns while getting food.
Shout out to Abhishek for his attentiveness and friendliness.
Extremely memorable experience. The food was mouth flooding to say the least. Coupled by the revolving restaurant, Al dawaar is the place to dine while in the city of Dubai.
Rachel and Aflal were exceptionally warm with a rare gift of inviting consistent smiles. My wife and I will definitely tell the story back in Kenya.
Place - This is a must visit place in Dubai one of the most amazing roof top restaurant, you will get to see both versions of Dubai old and new, and the revolving feature is like can’t describe in words it can be only experienced
Staff - The hospitality of the staff was very great, we had a delightful experience.
Food - Varieties n varieties n varieties
I like the theme of the place - revolving restaurant. We celebrated a friend's birthday. Had this dinner buffet. Food was great. Flattered by the crews gesture, heart warming and so entertaining. What I really like is the view so calming ...not too crowded even if it was weekend. Highly recommend the place. ❤️
I recently visited Dubai and this selected this restaurant for lunch. It was worth it. It offers excellent views. Vegetarians and non vegetarians have plenty of options to choose from. Tasty food and excellent service.
Unique experience of a revolving restaurant with a wide buffet spread. We loved the desserts, especially Umm Ali and the cakes.Great service and polite staff. View from the restaurant was nice. The ambience was okayish. Taste of the food was alright but didn't quite meet our expectations based on online reviews. Their drinks menu wasn't unique or worth the pricing. A bottle of water and a non-alocoholic drink costs almost the same.
Such a great evening at Al Dawaar!
You're greeted by welcoming staff who are there whenever you need them.
We went on a Thursday night and took the buffet package with alcohol.
The variety of food on offer leaves spoiled for choice and the flavours makes you keep going back for more.
Add in the ambiance and the ever changing views, you'll be set for a great evening at Al Dawaar.
A Dawaar of Hyatt Regency is a legendary restaurant of Dubai with spectacular rotating view of Dubai, the restaurant itself rotates and you can get a 360 degree rotating view of Dubai. Had the lunch buffet here, had reached here at 2.30 and the restaurant closes at 3.30 so the staff was slight hesitant of refilling the dishes, altough it has a live cooking station with a very good variety of food right from soup, starters, main course and dessert. The food was amazing with the rotating view of Dubai is once a lifetime experience. To see the view of Dubai slowly change in front of your eyes is so enjoyable, I would recommend everyone to once visit this spectacle.
Good value! The buffet was very diverse , the service was impeccable and it’s actually cool to keep running after the buffet ! I believe the dessert and the wine list can be definitely better !
Went there for christmas dinner! Everything was so nice decorated and all the desserts were in christmas theme. Food is very good and desserts aswell. You can use here 1+1 entertainer for the people who are interested! I got a bit dizzy from all that rotating but i think thats a personal thing im very sensitive with movements.
Al Daawar, the only Revolving Restaurant in Dubai. Went there for our special day, Marriage Anniversary. And I must say what an exhilarating experience. The ambience, the food, helpful and courteous staff, everything was so impeccable and impressive!!! Everything on the menu is scrumptiously delicious. Salad station has amazing salads. I loved Couscous salad Guacamole the most.
Being a vegetarian we were given special and extra attention and care.
Chef prepared special vegetarian recipes just for us 3 for the main course. And I must say I have never eaten such yummy Broccoli curry in my life.
If you have a sweet tooth this place is definitely for you. Varied choices of fruits, sweets, cakes, pastries, chocolate fountain and ice creams are there to choose from.
There was just one downside to an otherwise great experience:
Inspite of informing them in advance about the occasion, there was no special gesture from their side. However, other tables celebrating special occasions were given such a treatment.
We have been to so many other eminent places of Dubai and they leave no stone unturned to make your special day all the more special but this was not the case here, unfortunately!
The concept of the revolving restaurant is something which i love, the food is okaY BUT THE ambience and the service of the place just lights up the mood.
If you want an unique experience while you dine, this is the place to be! You'll have a different view with every bite u take off your dish! The ambience is classy as you'd expect. Food could've been better; can't complaint though
This is the place for a perfect romantic dinner. Restaurant was a total surprise and we had an amazing experience .....the staff were very friendly & nice .... They have a wide variety of food to choose from 😋 . A must visit for special occasions.
The restaurant is very classy and neat.
The fact that the restaurant rotates in a circle is so nice.. you can enjoy a lovely dinner while looking at the Dubai skyline!
The buffet is generous with many options to choose from! It was a seafood buffet night.
The staff is friendly and very responsive.
The price is somewhat overpriced, but it is worth it.
Will visit again!

Amazing view, only revolving restaurant in dubai worth visiting the place, need reservation, as it’s get filled very quick
Super service and polite staff, manager visit the table,
Not very impressive with the food, quality is food need to work on increasing the variety
Me and my friends visited this place for dinner. It was a great experience as we enjoyed the food so much with a revolving view. Good selection of dishes. I enjoyed the seafood so much. The fresh oysters, crabs, fish and even the meat and salads. Would definitely recommend to try this place if budget is not a concern.
Such an authentic place I never forget. Visited somewhat 5 years ago and its one of those places I came to look for to review! I'm the type that gets dizzy from anything but I didn't feel dizzy or nautious. The food was delicious. The ambience so nice. It's definitely a memorable experience.
Al dawaar is an amazing restaurant and the thing that makes it unique is that its a revolving restaurant while enjoying the great food u also enjoy the beautiful views of dubai ... went there for lunch with my better half loved all the variety of Arabian and middle eastern cuisine but my favorite was the sea food pasta and the amazing selection of the desserts 😋 truly loved the experience ...
Stunning view and good ambience. But I find the buffet very limited and the Chef gave me a roast beef with only fats, I only noticed it when I was having it on our table and had to left it on my plate. Food taste was just okay nothing special. Service seems tired and bored. We had to pour or own wines and water all the time.
Great to be at a restaurant serving good food, superb ambience and time to time attention by Yalina. Would love to be here again... Celebrating 16th year of togetherness
It's my first time to try this restaurant. Went with a friend of mine for dinner. They have wide array of food choices in their buffet. We also tried their wine that was recommended by the waitress. I did enjoy the night. It was a delicious dinner with a view. I would definitely come back and bring the rest of my friends here.

Excellent Buffet, Different cuisine, excellent ambience, a bit pricey but at the same time 100% Upscale place, staff and food. Total worth visit.
Visited this place for their saturday buffet. Good food, great service and awesome view. The food is good but found their buffet limited. Can't fault them on the quality though. Everything made tasted good especially the freshly made chicken spring rolls from their live counter.
If your someone who enjoys the view while eating this place is a must go...you will surely live the changing views from you table.
Went to this Revolving restaurant for a dinner with family. Worth a try. The buffet was excellent and they had different cuisines. The desert counter was huge and lots of cake and deserts to try. They have singaporean, indian, thai main course dishes. Couldn't try all the dishes as it was so heavy and fulfilling. A bit expensive though but an excellent experience all round. A must try! Couldnt take any photos as we all were busy eating as soon as we got there. Ajai CR
Been There For My Wife’s Birthday...They just made it so special and had really wonderful staff ready to help u in any poss way they could...
The buffet had good variety and excellent fresh food...
I would recommend this to every1....
I was amaze when we dine at Al Dawaar Revolving Restaurant.We enjoyed the food and we love the ambience.Don’t be surprise when you enter and exit in different location of the restaurant.Lol!Deserve a thumbs up and recommendation😍 #dawarhyatt
Staffs were really friendly. The place had a positive vibe. View was Breathtaking.
We tried the lunch buffet. Loved every bit of it. Beef Steak was my fav..just fab !!! Indian dishes (meat) were a little dry, but tasted good. We got our seat near dessert counter. What more do I need. They had a variety of desserts. I tried every single one, couldn't resist - it was just too good to be true.
Friday lunch buffet for the first time at the revolving restaurant and I am completely blown away. They have a very lavish spread of different cuisines. Love the seating arrangements and the view. The servers are polite and welcoming. The food was excellent in taste and my favourite was the nachos and guacamole, the sushi, Thai veg fried rice and the green chicken gravy. Good salad selection and fabulous appetisers. It’s a great place for a celebration especially if you want to impress your guests.
Been meaning to go here got the chance last month with business meeting.. great view no complaints. Service was a bit slow. But we had better service later w the drinks
Ambience was Amazing & romantic😍
Variety of Delicious Food starting from appetizers to desserts with great quality..
Main attraction is the view in a revolving restaurant along with delicious food, beautiful decor & very friendly staff.
When there are too many delicious options it gets difficult to choose & enjoy the food😂
Tried everything in very small quantities & trust me all the dishes were Oh so yummy!
They had 2 soup options-Lentil & sea food soup. Couldn't resist a second cup of sea food soup,it was that Superb,loved it!
Out of all the dishes i can say Singaporean black pepper shrimps & shrimp rice were my favourite,it was a bingo combination.
All in all, a wonderful experience and would highly recommend to all!
Been to Al Dawaar a couple of times in the past few years. The view is really great and since it's a revolving restaurant you get a 360 degrees view of the city. The staff is really courteous and polite and they make sure that all your needs are taken care of. Their buffet spread is pretty impressive. The one dish that has always stood out to me in their buffet is the Umm Ali. It tastes so, so good! Apart from that, the other dishes are pretty good too. Albeit a bit on the pricey side, the money you spend is really worth it given the view and the service. If not for the food then stop by to have a quick drink and enjoy the amazing view!
Value for money: 5/5
Ambience: 5/5 (Perfect for date nights!)
Service: 5/5
Food: 4/5
Excellent service (special thanks to Anna from Belarus who has been very kind and attentive).
Excellent view.
Good variation of cuisines.
A must to bring friends/relatives who’s visiting Dubai to enjoy and experience the only revolving resto in the country.
Good food very good service and good view. That makes a good restaurent 😊 i will defenitly go here again.
Make sure you ask for credit card offers. We really got surprised hearing tat enbd got 50 percent off
This place is one of the best and my most favorite since 1996. Have visited it umpteen number of times, its so relaxing to view Dubai 360 degrees and enjoy your spirit and super delicious buffet ! Amazing food layout, this place is renovated recently and has come out very very well !! One must visit and experience the 90 minutes aerial tour of the city !!!
Al Dawaar is a perfect fit for experiencing a revolving restaurant in Dubai with scenic views. It’s a 360 degree spin and an experience in itself.
The place is comfortable and cosy with very attentive service staff.
It’s a buffet restaurant with a decent spread comprising of sea food and other local and Asian delicacies, though taste wise it seemed ok.
Though I would love to visit again but only for the experience and views with a couple of cocktails.
We went withe family for Saturday lunch in June and we loved the experience. It is a place which deserves to be better known. I would have rated 4.5 if I had the option.
First, the interior is so bright with 360o windows with a fantastic view on the old Dubai, port and sea. The restaurant is indeed turning very slowing which can be funny sometime: your table is not at the same place when you come back from the toilet...
The food was good but I especially liked the sushis and some dishes you never have in buffets: guacamole or quail legs. Very diverse choice including Indian, Mexican, Japanese or Thai. Excellent dessert too.
The service was top-notch.
Really recommended place (they have only buffet so rather expensive but worth it for a long romantic lunch).
Assalamwalekum 😊, had our company Iftar this Ramadan at this revolving place. To begin with the ambeince is beautiful and the view from the restaurant is simply amazing. The relvoving of the restaurant takes 1 hrs 15 mins approx to complete one round. Coming to the food it was good and with lot of variety, the salmon, prawns, kababs garvy, chicken Tikka, whole lamb biryani, variety of salads (loved their beetroot salad) the only draw back was the Hyderabadi biryani which needs a lot of improvement. The variety of desserts was more then the main course and everything was very tasty. Overall it was a good experience.
Please note this review refers only to the iftar buffet. This restaurant is all about the view, it is rotating very slowly so you get a full 360 view of downtown Dubai and the creek from the 25th floor of the Hyatt hotel. The selection of food was smaller than other buffets I’ve been to but definitely well prepared. It ranged from mixed grill to pasta, it included a couple of seafood dishes which were very tasty. The salad bar is also great, everything tasted fresh and perfectly prepared. The dessert selection was the highlight for me: great mousse, fruit tarts, creme caramel, creme brulee etc all served with fresh Arabic coffee or tea. All in all it was an enjoyable experience topped with excellent service. I would like to give a shout out for Anna who was incredibly friendly, attentive and helpful. Recommended.
Since my extended family couldn't find time to go up Burj Khalifa or Dubai Frame owing to the lack of time and bad weather on the day they were visiting, and also since we wanted to celebrate my niece's birthday, this place turned out to be a blessing in disguise. And for someone who was brought up in Dubai, this place held a special place in my mind being this massive structure I could ponder upon everytime we visited the Vegetable and Fish market. I've always wondered what it was like on the inside, and I finally got the chance.
The place is posh, unlike your regular buffet places, with great ambience to boot and great seating area as well. They underwent a overhaul under a year ago, and it definitely shows. The kids enjoyed the automatic door of the bathrooms the most (so did we), while the bathroom felt luxurious with the marble and gold inlays. However, the highlight of the place had to be the slowly revolving setting, which obviously cannot explained enough as experienced. It was really exciting to have the kitchen next to you at the start of the buffet, and later find yourself at the entrance. It was also fun trying to figure out which way to go after picking up items from the buffet. The food was good, with good variety, but nothing exceptional that had us going for seconds, except for the desserts. I have to thank the staff for seating us right next to the desserts, it was awesome as well as such a convenience, even more so that it didn't revolve away from us. Also a special thanks to the staff for arranging a cake and song routine for my niece, that it left a big smile on the entire family.
Overall, it's all about the experience than the food, and it's definitely worth it as the food complements the whole experience quite well. We sat around long enough to get a full revolution of the restaurant, which took around 2 hours. The only downer would be the price since it didn't include water or soft drink, however you really can't put a price on a great experience as this.
Highly recommended!!
A luxurious restaurant on the rooftop.Enjoyed the iftar buffet at a reduced prices .The cuisine was primarily Arabic with a variety of salads.Limit op ions for vegetarians.But they had a variety of deserts to die for .Overall a rich and grandeur experience .
Very good place.. nice ambience.. very friendly staff.. located in very good hotel.. very nice concept of revolving restaurant... however keeping in mind the cost.. the choice of food in the buffet is very limited... dessert not very impressive... 4* for location, ambience, friendly star..
If you've lived in Dubai long enough, odds are you've heard of Al Dawaar at the Hyatt Regency Dubai at least once (unless you've been living under a rock). Open in the 1980's, the revolving restaurant and lounge has solidified itself as one of Dubai's most iconic and long lasting restaurants. Recently, the restaurant underwent a complete makeover, revealing a new tropical, colonial style theme to the public. Pair that with their great food, service, and 360 degree view of both old and new Dubai, and you have a recipe for one of the best dining experiences in the city.
