Friday night, with no reservation, there were only two tables available.
We placed our order and in 5 minutes we already got everything!
The pad thai was amazing, one of the best that I had considering the ones that I ate in Bangkok too!
The other dishes were also very good and drinks were perfectly balanced.
The only negative side is the really loud music with guests screaming instead of talking. After that half of the guests left it was much better.
I got the bill with already - surprise - an automatic 18% tip (no way to increase it?). I sincerely wanted to tip something more, you deserved it, next time I'll bring some cash with me.
Thank you again!

We visited various good restaurants in Dubai as a tourists, and we found this our favourite one, we have been here multiple times and we will get back again for sure.
Food is definitely very very good and price is not so expensive as the location might suggest.
Desserts are amazing, ice cream in first place: I'm Italian and trust me, an ice cream lover (try the chocolate or strawberry ones).
Fish is fresh and you can get the ones that you prefer.
I could have shot more photos about the dishes, but..my stomach was more impatient... 😅
Waiters are good to check your needs and suggest appropriately, and they were nice with my 6y daughter.
Location is very nice and not noisy as you might expect seeing the street in front of them.
Compared to other "Al Hallab" in the city, this is the best one for service and ambience.
The only small defect that taller people might find problematic is the table, not allowing you to stretch your legs due to his shape.
