sikkat beirut

one of the best restaurants we tried in ummalquwain. everything we tried was good quality and big portions, they even give us one free main course due to eid . one must try their desserts specially lotus waffles and chocobanana crepe. overall highly recommended..

one of the best places to have arabic food, beautiful ambience, friendly staff & food is top quality. a hidden gem in ummalquwain

it’s a hidden gem located in ummalquwain. my husband and i went there for a dinner, it was really good.
we ordered shawerma, mixed grills, kibdeh, mutabbal & fatteh.
the shawerma was superb! i also loved the other plates
it’s really a nice place, it also has a private cabinet outside with ac and tv.
i would love to come back again for sure 👍🏻

breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day, agree? agreed.

and we did it right with the newly launched breakfast menu at sikkat beirut, located in ummalquine, serving some beautiful lebanese cousins.

and what is breakfast with some hot and lovely chai beside your wholesome breakfast?

we had some karak beiruti which should surely be an inclusion in all the breakfast menus ever served.

i have tried egg benedict in a few places before, but none like the one i tried at sikkat beirut. the bread so soft it literally melts in your mouth and egg was very well made. it is served with turkey. but can be ordered without it as well.

loved every bit of it.

want something healthy yet yum. acai bowl would definitely be a perfect option to consider. at sikkat beirut, i tried my first acai bowl and was it good or what. had a big bowl of smoothie covered with granola, and mixed fruits. loved having it.

tried the at sikkat bierut arabic platter, with various arabic sides and sauces and had some big & fluffy arabic bread (khaboos). really well done.

who doesn't like lotus biscuits? i certainly do, and especially the ones i get in a form of a cheesecake. had some divine lotus cheesecake which totally made my day. something everyone should try it out there.

visited this restaurant recently. one word for this restaurant would be 'unique'. yes, this lebanese restaurant serves one of the best unique food i've tried. its a must visit in ummalquwain. having wide range of variety, great ambience, & reasonable rates, this restaurant definitely stands out.

for starters we ordered the hummus & sujuq. both the dishes were scrumptious where the sujuq had a little indian taste to it..

for drinks we ordered the very cherry cola, sikkat beirut, passion fruit mojito, strawberry mojito & rahash. the passion fruit mojito was a bit too sweet so make sure to ask them to make it less sweet. the rahash and sikkar beirut was my personal favorite. loved it!!

for main course we ordered the fatteh qraydes, arayes, mac & cheese boat, & don pablo. the arayes and mac & cheese boat both were splendid. the arayes was the best arayes i have eaten till date i must say.

for dessert we ordered the knefeh & chunky monkey. both the dishes are recommended. the chunky monkey was huge in size, as good as a large pizza.

pros: quick service, friendly staff, wide range of variety, reasonable rates, ambience, quantity, quality.
cons:

this was my first time driving down to ummalqaiwain for a tasting session and it was absolutely worth it.
we were invited to review sikkat beirut and was really impressed by the feel and vibe. the interiors are done
in a classic railway station model with wooden doors and wall art. they have private cabins for family and
separate shisha area. the outdoor seating is perfect with transparent partition and good for family get togethers.
we started off with classic chocolate and tropical blast. classic chocolate shake was too good and being a
chocolate lover i really loved it. tropical blast had pineapple and strawberry flavors and perfectly refreshing.
from cold mezzeh, we had mohamara and fattoush. mohamara is a dip made of walnuts and slightly spicy. pretty
good one. fattoush on the other hand was crunchy and the molass sauce was really complementing it.
from hot mezzeh , we tried sambousa meat. the made the rolls in a different way with less oil. the filling was good too.
for mains we had mixed grill with lamb chops, shish taouk, kebabs etc.the meat was well cooked and tender and
served with fresh breads.
we also tried the sikka burger which is a specialty here. i wish it was less cheesy.
finally for desserts, we had knefeh vermicelli. the sugar syrup was served separately and it was just the way i love.
overall a great experience and a must go place at ummalquwain.

ummalquwain is one of the most tranquil places in uae, free from all the buzz and long traffic lines on fridays but there's definitely a buzz at sikkat beirut, as the ambience of the place is contemporary/modern and has an energy of its own, the lebanon vibe is strong with the southeast asian servers who deliver food to you're table with a smile,
definitely order the sheesha, mix grilled platter and the lebanese ice cream. and finish off with some chai.
this has to be a go to place for anyone who is visiting ummalquwain.

band new place with great decor and ambience. great coffee and pizzas. they also have shisha in a separate space. a must visit in ummalquwain.
