a la turca - rixos the palm dubai

unique weekend experience with extensive selection of traditional anatolian dishes along withturkishentertainment. we were excited upon receiving and invite from rixos the palm to experience their newly launched saturday brunch in a la turca restaurant. it is resort’s main restaurant and has a buffet concept that serves a variety of international cuisines including authenticturkishcuisines with delicacies such as grills, kebabs, and mezzes from eastern anatolia, the aegean and the black sea

not necessarily aturkishplace, more intercontinental than anything. not bad at all with a good desert selection, however there could be more food variety. do not get their steak as its like a tire, steak aside i highly recommend.

i was invited for the iftar preview at a la turca and the food was fantastic. loved the ambiance and the view.

if you're looking for iftar and suhoor, there is a lot in store for you. it would be almost impossible to try the food as there is so much of variety even for the dessert. pure and traditionalturkishtaste. it's a must

i have been here for a business lunch. the lunch is served as buffet. the variety is great and everything tastes nice. furthermore, the tastes are same with what it should locally be in aturkishrestaurant. it was not very crowded but service was still not great. when the weather is nice, outdoor seating is very joyful.

having our 'staycation' at rixos, we opted to have a half-board meal plan to our room as you know that the hotel is located on the very end of the palm. so we chose to have the breakfast and dinner. going down on the lower ground floor of the hotel, you will find them on your left downstairs, and while you are still outside of the door, you can imagine that the restaurant has a huge selection of foods. and we are correct indeed! turkishfoods are so tasty! the dinner buffet is carefully laid out, and the staff are so wonderful assisting you all the time. for our breakfast, we opted to sit outside as the sitting area is amazing and relaxing. and as it turns out, the guy who is assisting us in everything we need is the manager himself! which i found it so humble of him, he doesn't act like he's a manager at all. walking casually, cleaning up the tables, so humble of him. this restaurant must i say is a wise choice for a buffet that you should not miss trying.

came here for lunch on a regular weekday. have to say i would not come again. it's too far away a drive to come out here specifically. if you live here then okay maybe.
i didn't find any innovative dishes and the few items that wereturkishwere definitely not the best.
for hot dishes, i found lots of side items and not much meat/fish. the doner was average and the kofta was undercooked.
the desserts should have been chilled, chocolate and mousse was melting.
bread buns were disappointing too.

sadly, i wouldn't recommend this for your buffet cravings. there are surely better spots to overeat on the palm.

if u are fan ofturkishcuisine u wouldn't be disappointed here..the only prob is service, which is so slow and needs reminders...overall worth to try it...

aturkishrestaurant with a global touch. loved the chicken shashlik, lamb kebab, lasagne bolognese and the chocolate praline. the only real challenge would be getting to the rixos, where you need to go all around the palm jumeirah to actually get there. but overall good experience. the service was good and the ambience was just about fine. the place where we got a table was a bit dimly lit, more than what i would have liked but no complaints. would definitely recommend this place if you are planning dinner with family

first time we triedturkishbuffet. the good point of this restaurant they have really wide spread of food.
from salads to desert u can find multiple options.
specially their grill items are good and wide options they have. for desserts also they have multiple option. good choice for a sweet tooth.
recommended

the food was awesome.. served in lovely ambience. they serve not only authenticturkishcuisine but also a variety of international cuisines. they have some amazing delicacies like grills, kebabs and mezzes, entire seafood counter, live pasta station, multiple dessert counters and so much more!

during our stay at rixos we enjoyed the spread of the buffet for breakfast lunch and dinner a number of times. the food was high quality and we were well taken care of by mr. shiba, yusuf, mohammed. their fresh grills and meats section was amazing and we got to try out someturkishand eastern european cuisine
with the all inclusive package, we also got a varied selection of alcoholic beverages and drinks which were amazing.
brilliant service and food options to cater to everyone's palette

aturkishrestaurant where buffet is served,
menu comprised of of continental and middle eastern cuisine

very good ambiance
relaxing
sea food choice was ample.
thou we were little hesitant to pick salad but good spread of variety.
service was bit slow in clearing table, may be staff cut down after covid.
good choice of desserts

the food spread wasn’t reallyturkishand there were a couple of items that wereturkishyou can say. disappointed as i was expecting something good.

staff not really attentive even though there weren’t many people in the restaurant.

this place is exquisite. i don't remember enjoying aturkishcuisine that much in last few years in dubai.
- man'ousha is best i tried since decade.
-salad bar is rich with vicarious selection.
- staff is super friendly
- ambiance is casual and fair
- desserts is my benchmark from now one till someone nominee a better one.
-live cooking corner is having a mouthwatering kofta, very recommended in medium well cooked.

amazing place for real authenticturkishfood...one of the outstanding ones i visited so far from good to their services...
the grills and kebabs were perfectly cooked and tender....
forturkishfood lover definetely a place to drop by and taste their food and enjoy the atmosphere...
the service is good and the welcoming definitely warm which makes u come back again....
