khayal restaurant - marriott hotel al forsan

wow…. iftar buffet was on point the space between the tables was convenient very neat clean organized buffet thevarietyof the food was very fair everything was delicious special thanks to our waiter nilham i guess that was her name she was working like a busy bee between the tables and cleared the dishes from the table on time. they had good food options for kids my son was very very happy, they made sure to make our kids happy and full. this is the first buffet in my life that cared for kids up to this point, kids food included (burgers, pizza, nuggets, fries) and they even had popcorn and slush for kids to serve. my son was happy, husband was happy, i was happy. the best iftar buffet i have ever had on my last 30 years in uae.

after reading all the great reviews about khayal, i decided to enjoy my day off by having breakfast their and it was certainly a great one.

when we arrived, the setup was beautiful, luxurious and very relaxing. the display of the food was simply outstanding. each food was broken down into sections and explained to us.

we chose to sit by the window to enjoy the lovely view. we were warmly greeted by the staff as well as mr. rahul, chef de cuisine.

breakfast was a feast; the buffet had everything, salads, cereals, cheese, cold cuts, yogurt, fresh juices, pastries and amazingvarietyof indian and arabic traditional breakfast dishes as well as healthy options.

they had pancake, waffles and eggs stations that happily cook according to your preference. what pleasantly surprised me was that we had an option of ordering egg benedict too, which not many restaurants have on their live counter menu. it’s always either scrambled or omelette. we opted for the one with salmon and it tasted amazing.

the food itself was fantastic quality and the service was unbeatable. compared to all other breakfasts we have done before, this is by far one of the best for quality, variety, service and presentation. the verity of drinks also was brilliant, wish it was an all-day breakfast!!

restaurant chef de cuisine mr. rahul did a great job. the pictures speak for themselves! i highly rate khayal with 5 stars for everything. we will be back for sure.

iftar buffet. the food was intended with quality serving. alot of varietythat can choose from. the staff were all good very accommodating. they were also good in communication with the needs of the guest. cozy and beautiful environment. thank you so much and keep up the good food and good environment. يعني الصراحة مطعم اكثر من رائع

had been here for family lunch with kids on friday afternoon. kids havevariety- pasta, pizza, fries, wedges, chips, desserts, ice lollipops & different ice creams. for adults, there’svarietygrills, sushi, salads, biriyani & desserts. great place & worthwhile quality time with family.

probably the best ramadan buffet in the capital. it is hard to overstate the quality,varietyand friendly service that this place offers.

we went to the iftar buffet 2 nights in a row. it was that impressive. i didn’t care to take photos because we were too busy enjoying the food and ambience.

two years ago i left a detailed negative review so i am not one to flatter. unfortunately, the quality went down drastically but the last two nights have proven otherwise. khayal is back with a bang in ramadan; providing a deliciousvarietyof cuisines and excellent service to match.

an extra thank you to the staff who made the qamardeen drink. it was so refreshing! i regret not going for a second glass! if this is the quality of 2021, then we’re all going to need bigger clothes soon! well done, khayal. keep it up.

grateful to experience their wanasah family lunch last friday. khayal restaurant is a lovely place. love the interior and atmosphere also the comfortable seats. almost everything was delicious.

i did enjoyed their salad bar and the asian corner with almost everything homemade by chef ellie was phenomenal. i ate loads of rice because of their chicken stir fry and shrimp curry.

their is also a goodvarietyin their emirati and arab food from fish to chicken to beef mixed grill.

not to be forget also their desserts. i looove the creme brulee, cupcakes are also and delicious.

i did enjoyed my wild berry mocktail, fresh juices for my daughter and dad as well as my iced coffee served by mina. shoutout as well to their awesome staff sarah and shovit.

the 25 minutes drive from our city place is totally worth it. excited to see what more they can offer after the pandemic.

we came here on a friday evening. thevarietyof cuisines are wide, they have 4 live cooking stations. friendly and helpful staff, especially jezra.

one of the besssssstttt breakfast buffets we have tried so far...as we were staying at the hotel we had the moment to try al khayal to fuel up for our breakfast needs..
.
we were pleasantly suprised by the widevarietythey had to offer & everything was super fresh & delicious..the grand buffet at al khayal has different stations spread across the place that include a bakery section with avarietyof crossants, bagel, donuts, cakes, even my favourite cinnabons & much more.
.
next is the fresh juice section offering a widevarietyagain, the chinese section that had dimsums, spring rolls, stir fried chicken, noodles etc.
.
the indian section was pleasing to see as it included the traditional sewiyan to feast on, on a eid day & many other options to savour on.there was a nice spread for the fitness freaks too & the customer service was absolute courteous.
.
i highly recommend al khayal for a breakfast buffet...it will keep leaving you coming back for more. excellent service!

khayal marriott al forsan.
tokyo to casablanca night.

we really enjoyed this new theme night at khayal last night.

it's such a cool concept in the style of a flight on khayal airlines from tokyo to casablanca with boarding pass and all.

the food was amazing, a selection of items from all regions in between with an excellent salad and dessert range as well.

the highlights were the korean bbq beef, the oxtail, biryani and the sushi.

there was just too muchvarietyto try lol must go back soon.

great venue, superb food awesome service and very cheerful and professional staff.

a must try for all.

this is one of the best family buffet i ever had and i have been to uncountable ones.

so finally i decided to plan my anniversary dinner in khayal restaurent,experience was awesome.service was fantastic (especially eric).food was great too they have a widevarietyof international cuisine.last but not the least they treated us with a complimentary cake.

the restaurant is located in the newly opened marriot in khalifa city a. good. location and easy parking plus also its good to escape from the city crowd and the restaurant is a with very good and quite ambience. they also accept the entertainer so you can use that to get the other meal free. the price is reasonable for lunch and i have been there twice for lunch i havent yet tried their dinner. now coming to the main part the food which is backbone of every restaurant in the world.
