ewaan- palace downtown

opted for the lunch buffet by using the groupon voucher.
was pretty upset with how the staff welcomed us. the lady at the entrance had an expression as if she was paying for our lunch.

the buffet however, was above average. a lot of choices from around the world.
the roasted beef was on a live cooking station, but tasted raw and bland.
the charocoal grilled sheesh tawook and lamb kofta were fresh and cooked to perfection.

unfortunately we were assigned a waiter to our table named dharma along a few others as well. he lied saying we said we were using entertainer vouchers instead of groupon which meant we had to pay for the soft drinks.
even though the food was pretty good, the waiter serving our table was a negative.
in the end the manager agreed it was a miscommunication between us and the waiter.
we were unhappy, but atleast it was solved.

ewaan reminds me of agrabah (disneys alladin).
from the moment we reach the valet parking, i feel like i am a prince entering a palace.
my friends and i took the stairs (at night, it's usually crowded to take the elevator) and reached the gate to the restaurant.
we were seated in an arabian style "vip" room covered with luxurious curtains and we were alone and pampered.
the seating was comfortable and the atmosphere of the restaurant had a royal feel to it.
we got up to invade the buffet, which was simply delicious and inviting.
they had everything! arabic, italian, steak, seafood, desert and best of all, a crepe station (we had to race the kids to be the first in line).
generally, had some of everything and let me just say that i am thankful we wore loose linen pants :p
after wards we ordered morrocan tea and what served was really awesome service. each of us got a small tray with the teapot, cup, sugar cup amd spoon. it looked like personalized silver-plated china. we felt special.
all in all, ewaan was a perfect experience to socialize with great company and awesome food (but make sure you reserve your place)
and now, we need to leave on our magic carpet

my favoraite brunch spot in town. staff are so friendly, fiod is delicious and selectuon is wide. if you want a place to havr this friday brunch or celebrating a special occasion, look no further since you r guaranteed to have a great time

we went to try their lunch buffet. the interior is gorgeous. service was good. the waiters were warm and helpful. however the food was okay. they did have a wide spread of food. i was very disheartened coz i am a huge sushi lover... and the sushis which they had were really pathetic! why keep something which is not even average, leave alone good! also the seafood section wasn’t upto the mark, mostly there was a stench. main course also was just okay....desserts were thankfully good... so indulged in it... 😃🙏

place is luxurious and all, but the food is just not on the level. tried their friday brunch. most dished were arabic and not tasty as one would expect. the crowd at the buffet was a bit rude, lot's of old people in a rush to get their preferred dish.

it was our 8 wedding anniversary and ewaan was a treat to celebrate our soo special occasion there. after saloan at grosvenor house ill rate ewaan palace the best available buffets in dubai in terms of taste. surely it was amazing ull get that wow factor which is absent in large quantity meals. hmmm it was exotic and satisfying for every person as i haven't seen soo many verities in each section of food you will get bbq ull gets roast in all form of meat and you'll get lots n lots of stews ... then sea food in grilled,fried,steamed and raw😳👍 every thing was just perfect . a huge array of salads beautifully presented will also charm you but my advice focus on meaty stuff as you cant have enough. oh yes the ambience will surely grab you for being in a real palace its very classy with dim lights candles on the table high ceilings and earthy floor will surely give u a royal feel. there is no clear view of burj and it doesn't matter as u will be really busy eating. the cherry on the cake was a special exclusive pastry cake with a candle served us directly from the kitchen as a surprise for celebrating our anniversary there ... must try specially for buffet lovers.

went on thursday night for a dinner. my expectations were really high, but i couldn't find anything special in terms of food.
good points: staff was extremely helpful and caring, ambience is nice. complimentary cake was also good. but the variety of food didn't impress me.

excellent place and amazing food choice
specially grill sea food.
romantic atmosphere,we had awesome sheesha
extremely high standard of cuisine, very courteous/happy staff. a real pleasure. . i will return!!!"

very nice place and good atmosphere.
i went for dinner open buffet and we really enjoyed the food so much.
we had good time outdoor.
it was my second time :)

pre-ramadan iftaar buffet at ewaan, the palace downtown in burj khalifa district was grand. the decor, the menu and the ambiance was terrific. it is perfect place to be after ramadan fasting during the day.

sensational views of the dubai fountain and burj khalifa . perfect setting for an arabian dining experience. however the food wasn’t up to the mark.

whenever i get an invitation from the palace downtown, i’m fleet of foot to accept. is it because it always feels like a bit of a royal affair, thanks to the decor and the name of the hotel? or is it because i always have a smashing good time whenever i’m there, regardless of the occasion? a bit of both, perhaps. but the real reason is that their green tea. i know, i know. but just hear me out. the entire emaar hospitality group serves twg water fruit green teas, and it’s a small (but consistent) detail but my green tea lovin’ palate has been all pavlov-ed out.

located in the 5 stars palace hotel and overlooking a beautiful pool and the burj khalifa, this restaurant has a royal atmosphere and a great service.
it offers delicious international buffet on wednesdays: international salads, raw/ grilled/ cooked/fried seafood (although i have to admit that the seafood bbq is no longer up to the ewaan standards), arabic rice meals, shawarma, and some indian food, steak and various grills...and yummyyy desserts !
the belly dancer and the tannoura show add to the place an amazing ambience...
reservation is highly recommended

one of the places that u actually get to miss and forward to your next visit... the consistency is really impressive ... to have everything cooked that perfect is not an easy job... just make sure to bring ur appetite :)

ewaan is one of the luxurious places in dubai .. very suitable for romantic night .. but if you are going for the food this is not the right place .. i went with my fiancée on wednesday arabian night .. not much food varieties in food .. very limited menu .. but the decor and the view is amazing .. belly dancer .. egyptian helahopa made it really arabian night
