karak and rigag - كرك ورقاق

very friendly staff, excellent service and delivery of the food. the rigag tasted excellent making me want more with how crispy and cheesy it was. definitely recommend!

what a cute lil place. they have swings! the desserts are mouth watering & finger licking good.
whatever i have eaten from the menu there till date has made happy. no complains so far.

located in jumeirah road, good place. have nice karak tea and good friendly staff. prices are good this value for money it’s a small place. food is good and nice mix of local and other cuisines. opens late till 4am.

a perfect cafe to have a lovely snack by the beach. they have very limited indoor seating and outdoors they have chairs and swing chairs which is lovely. we ordered the lotus milkshake which was delicious and flavousome. the quantity is good enough for a person. we also had the pink sauce pasta which was served hot, creamy and good to be shared.

karak and rigag is just the ideal place for desserts. it's a tiny, cute and cozy place located in front of the mamzar beach. in love with the molten cake here, which just melts in the mouth and has the perfect blend of chocolate. would love to try more here!

the staff was very friendly and the food was served nice and fresh to us . it was a good experience and i would recommend it to my friends and family

ordered khubz rigag..oman chips with egg and cheese..
good to go but not the one traditional type which you usually eat..packed elegantly but because its packed and closed the rigaag loses its crispness which i would suggest them to not close the box or change the packaging to avoid the soggyness.
on the other hand kunafa is very nice and crisp.

so this is my i guess 3-4 time at karak ,and i would say its amazing for their dessert things. we have tried their mix platter of pancakes,brownie box and pancakes with strawberries and white chocloate and i would say they are amazing actully.
one must try their dessert and definately i am going back every time and wana try their various dishes.

was here last winter. the swing seaters excited my kids n me. am sure tht is one of their prime attraction. i ordered for lotus milkshake irrespective of the crispy cold weather as the temptation kicked in. my kids enjoyed their nutella spread pancake. thy hve a wide range of tempting dish to choose frm. can be a ideal place for dinner enjoying a swing.

amazing food everything is deliciouss especially the pancakes and the rigags haven't had such tasty and amazing variety in pancakes and rigags. the pastas are also a must tryy.

we were excited to try out karak & rigag at al mamzar & we had a more than happy experience. it’s not your average karak tea joint. they serve emarati food with a twist, burgers, pasta, shakes and desserts. 

we dug into their menu and found out they had loads to offer. the restaurant is small so there is not much space for the dining area inside the restaurant. the outdoor seating is pretty cosy with swinging chairs. 

we started with karak tea. they have a lot of karak and milk in many flavour varieties. we also wanted to try out zaafran (saffron) tea but it wasn’t available. 

the rigag here is a must try. the rigag is a wafer-thin bread and is well-known in the wider gulf region. it’s freshly cooked in house over a large pan and stuffed with good portions of cheese, veggies and meat/chicken (stuffing as per your selection of pizza). we couldn’t stop at one slice and one could feel the flavours in every bite. we tried the chicken pizza rigag. we were stunned by how tasty this thing could be. 

for milkshakes, we tried the lotus shake. they have a good range of chocolate shakes too. would try the other shakes next time we visit as the lotus shake was excellent. 

rolls are another speciality of this restaurant. we tried the chicken mayo garlic roll and we must admit that this was the best roll we ever had. the flavours were tantalizing and literally, all our taste buds and senses were awakened. they claim this is one of their best selling items, and it has 100 reasons to be so!!

we then tried the alfredo pink pasta which was creamy and rich in flavour. it was really creamy and the sauce was top notch. the pasta range is very limited on the menu and we definitely were glad to order this. 

for fries, we ordered the peri peri fries. as the name suggests, the fries were spicy and satisfying. 

we couldn’t miss trying the desserts, so we called for traditional luqaimat in dibs (date syrup). you can choose from honey, lotus and nutella as well. and also, we called for brownie heaven cake which we totally loved. it was served with vanilla ice cream and we finished it in no time! 

parking could be an issue during the weekend but you can also comfortably side park your car and munch on the food seated in your ride. the staff takes your order from your car and delivers it to you as well.  

we left with satisfied tummies and a never forgetful experience. we would definitely come back here. 

food - 5/5
staff friendliness: 5/5
ambience: 4/5
value for money: 5/5

i was a regular customer to this place for their riggs,luqaimat and pancakes but lately their luqaimat served aren't fresh they have a sour kind of taste we have repeatedly asked them to check but everytime they say no it's resolved but it's still the same.
the management needs to check on this asap before losing many loyal customers for not serving quality food.

visited this place while i was at mamzar tried their rgag and few other things. this was honey an cheese it was good worth trying again. and the staff is really sweet.

karak & rigag opened its all new branch in mamzar area and i was invited to review the same. it has a small outdoor area with swinging chair and beautiful breeze from the beach. its a great place to enjoy hot tea along with with crispy rigag of different varieties. we chose to have a karak ginger, karak saffron and ordinary karak tea. karak ginger was the best among all. saffron tea could have been a little better.

after watching mark wiens (one of my favorite youtuber/food reviewer munch on some crispy, cheesy rigag i had no choice but to follow his footsteps in absolute honor and hunger. :p
