We visited Zamzam mandi with family for dining out after ages. The restaurant was following all SOPS. We got the temperature check on entrance and our majlis seating area was sanitized. We were served delicious lentils soup while we decided what to order. We were 6 adults and 3 children so decided to have 2 Mandi, a Madhbi and a Hanith. It came with delicious and flavourful rice whereas the chicken and meat were cooked to perfection. The servers were attentive and provided excellent customer service. The food came along with salad and red tomato dip which added went really well with the overall food. In the end we got complimentary mint tea and a plate of delicious luqaimat which ended the meal on a sweet note. We also ordered their kunafah which could have a little bit more cream/cheese but it was good. Will definitely recommend it for a delicious Arabic meal.

Today we went to their best branch which is just opposite to Deira City Center around 8:30 PM but it was closed without any notice so then we went to Karama one.

We reached there around 9 pm and we came to know that in Chicken only Mandi is available, not Madhbi and in Mutton, only Haneeth Kidhf was there which I haven’t tried before.

Well, we ordered the available items and it was amazingly well delicious plus the quantity was too good.

Later they delivered the mint tea (Gaawa) and Sweet Balls (dipped in date syrup) as complimentary and then we ordered Cream Kunafa which was also good.

Their ambiance was also good as they have family portions (Jalsa) and the staff was quite professional and humble.

I have been to this branch so many times but didn't get a chance to post my review well today I took the pics so thought to write about them.

I strongly recommend this place for a good and reasonable price mandi plus if you are going in a large number of groups so do visit them as their restaurant is ground plus one so they can easily accommodate your group.

My go to place for mandi these days as they deliver the food real quick. I have tried the mutton and chicken mandi from here and I must say that the quality of meat is good.

I love the accompaniments - the apricot dip and a chilli dip that go very well with the mandi.

Arabic food is just amazing.
If you haven’t tried mandhi at Zam zam, just go and have it.

I have visited on this outlet and ordered mandhi chicken and fish both followed by Kunafa.

Taste was just awesome and ambience of the outlet is good.

You will have separate privacy for family as well.

After the mandhi you can have the best view of dubai frame just from the front of the outlet.

An excellent choice to have delicious Mandi. Tried their mutton Mandi, mutton madghout and chicken madbee and it was Woowww !! Though spacious, on weekends may have to wait a bit to get hold of a table . But the food what they serve is worth the wait .

Though the staffs are super busy they make sure that excellent customer service is provided .

Brilliant mandi and chicken 65. This was one of my best mandi experience in Dubai. Would definitely go back. Parking can be an issue since the outlet is located in a busy street.

I ordered chicken 65(I am not very sure what the name of the dish was, but was like chicken 65) it was my favorite amongst the lot. Service was good and price was decent. Overall awesome

Amal was excellent. He is sure an asset to Zam Zam

Mandi, The best Arabic cuisine!

I believe I've eaten enough Chicken Mandi for me to back this title up, and comparing it to most Arabic cuisines I've tried which are mostly simple grilled meat with bread, Mandi truly is the best, more on this after the break.
I can still remember the time I had my first Mandi and having no idea what it was, surprised me seeing the glistening chicken on top of a mound of rice with soup, some greens like cucumber or arugula, and tomato chatni Arabic ketchup on the side, thinking this is too much for a single person, but then I dug in and learned it isn't.

One of the best Madfoon ever tried. Their rice is really good and masala spicy and flavorful enough. The Chicken was extremely tender and juicy. The quantity for AED30 was actually sufficient for three people! The soup was also good.. Only one thing though... There was no yogurt served along with the rice which is usually expected.. still I would give 5 stars for the taste! Looking forward to ordering their Mandi next time...

Starts by a complimentary appetizing soup and salads followed by the main menu i.e. the Mutton Mandi. Served along with spicy tomato chili purée. AED 45/- each and can be shared by two #musttry

#zamzammandirestaurant located in the heart of K-Town (Karama) next to Lulu Hyper Market and facing the latest beautiful masterpiece #dubaiframe. The service is good, has table sitting and private room with floor seating to relax after having a tummy full of deliciousness.

Mandi is a traditional Yemeni dish originated from Yemen, consisting mainly of rice, meat (lamb, camel, goat or chicken) or fish with a special blend of spices. It is extremely popular and prevalent in most areas of the Arabian Peninsula, and even considered a staple dish in many regions. The main technique which differentiates Mandi from other meat dishes is that the meat is cooked in a pit underground (Tandoor), which is a special kind of oven which is usually a pit dug up in the ground and covered with clay all around its sides. The meat used is usually a young and small sized lamb to enhance the taste further. The meat is then boiled with whole spices until tender, and the spiced stock is then used to cook the Basmati rice at the bottom of the Tandoor, then the meat is suspended inside the Tandoor above the rice and without touching the charcoal. After that, the whole Tandoor is then closed with clay for up to 8 hours. Dry fruits can be added to the rice as to one's taste.
P.S: Traditionally Mandi was cooked in a hole dug in the desert. It is also eaten with hands on floor seatings.

If you're craving some yummy chicken or mutton Mandi, then this is the place for you. These guys use very good quality meat and it is well marinated and perfectly cooked.  I find the portion size quite overwhelming, but yes if you're famished then it's a different story!

Very much spacious for dine in. You even have a closed cabin for eating the mandi traditional way. Mandi sufficient for two. Worth the money. The service was good. They never hesitated to serve anything we asked as extra. I also ordered extra mandi rice, extra caramelized onions and also sweet balls.Salad was fresh. Soups, mandi, sweet ball and classic traditional tea was served along with mandi. Only disappointment is that the sweet ball was not hot or freshly made. I ordered extra asking them to bring it fresh. But they just heated it and gave us. Rest others are all perfect.

So the food is not the best, I’ve had better mandi but I must vouch for the service. There was a waiting time of about 30-40 minutes to get ourselves seated in a majlis because the place was packed. Everyone was being served with lemonade while they were waiting, towards the end they offer complementary black tea and legaimaat.

Zam zam mandi is one of my favotite place whenever i have crave for mandi... The best part is you will get sweet balls after meal and solemani tea. As always i ordered chicken madhbi which is grill chicken with mandi rice and tomato chutney and chicken soup and salad and red chilli paste and... Thats it😁😁😁😁.... And at the end my favorite sweet balls and i must say staff are so friendly that if you ask for one more cup of sweet balls they will never say no....
So if u wanna try mandi you should try zam zam.... If u want extra rice ask for it... Nything u ask they will give and will not charge extra....

Stumbled upon while looking for a place for dinner. Did not search as wanted to go for a walk and search for a place. Made an excellent choice even the restaurant only had 3 tables when we walked in.

Visited this place for lunch with friends for the first time and we were lucky to have gotten a table almost immediately on a Friday. We ordered a mix of the Chicken Mandi and Chicken Madghout. One of the best mandi I’ve had in town, especially with their sides. First, they served us a soup and salad. And we finished the meal with their special tea and ligamat. Very good service. Overall, a good experience.

This place is by far one of the best restaurants in the city serving Mandi.
We order the Hamour Mandi every weekend as a ritual now. The quality of the food is very good.
We experiment with their list of Chicken Mandi as well. The meat is always fresh and I would highly recommend it.
In addition to this, their Kunafa is to die for. SO delicious.
When dining-in, they also serve complimentary tea and Arab sweet balls which completes the experience at the restaurant.

I tried my first Mandi in Saudi, after that any where I never couldn't find same or better taste. Since then I tried many restaurants in Dubai but no where got satisfied and since long time I was thinking to order from ZAM ZAM (Karama), which I could order yesterday and to be frank finally I could taste one of the finest mandi biriyani in Dubai. I had ordered Mutton Mandi and the quantity of one box was enuf for two. Thank u.

What’s not to like about this place ?
We went here because of their well known Mandi .

We had ordered their ;
madbi with hamour
Chicken mandi
Cheese kunafa.

The mandi tasted amazing and was well served . I loved how they served us . I loved every bit they came after as well, from the dumplings to the black mint tea , everything tasted amazing .

The Kunafa was filled with cheese and was served hot , just like how it should be .

The quality of service was another point to be added; they were so friendly and welcoming from serving us to coming every now and then and checking up on us .

Loved every bit of this place and would love to come back and try out their other dishes as well.

Overall, my ratings are ;

I am very selective when it comes to giving 5 but damn this place just blew it when it comes to the overall foodie experience. What I loved the most was their service followed by taste and ambience. We ordered mutton hanid which was really good, even the rice was pretty good with light spices. Ambience was probably one of the best in a mandi restaurant and service was just out of the world good. When I entered itself they made it a point to attend to me very fast and coordinated with other staffs and arranged a beautiful room. They young guy attending to us was really nice, soft spoken and super friendly.

I also love the way they differentiated from other mandi restaurants by giving us free Laqaiymat and sulaimani at the end and sulaimani is unlimited!!!! Also one other main point is that the pricing is good, more value for money and free parking (Huge Deal).

Thanks guys for the amazing time 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
