Ariana's Persian Kitchen

Absolutely phenomenal dining experience! From the moment we walked in, everything was exceptional. The ambiance is luxurious yet welcoming, with stunning interiors that reflect the elegance of modern Persian culture. The food? Simply unforgettable. Every dish was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients and incredible attention to detail. The kebabs were juicy and perfectly seasoned, the saffron rice was fragrant and fluffy, and the appetizers were bursting with authentic taste. Even the desserts were a masterpiece! The staff were warm, professional, and attentive — always around when you need them, but never intrusive. You can tell they take pride in their service. If you’re looking for a refined culinary experience with the soul of traditional Persian cuisine, Ariana is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to anyone visiting Dubai.

Absolutely Ariana restaurant amazing experience! This is by far the best Iranian restaurant in Dubai. The food is incredibly delicious — every dish was full of authentic flavor and beautifully presented. The cleanliness and hygiene are top-notch, and the entire place exudes elegance and class. Located in the prestigious Royal Atlantis at The Palm, the restaurant offers not only exceptional cuisine but also a truly luxurious atmosphere. The ambiance is both upscale and welcoming, and the staff are attentive and professional. Despite the high-end location and premium quality, the prices are very reasonable and offer great value for money. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy top-quality Iranian food in Dubai. It truly deserves all five stars. A must-visit spot for food lovers!

Ariana’s Persian Kitchen – Royal Atlantis Dubai (Dinner on July 8, 2025) I went for dinner with my son at Ariana’s Persian Kitchen with a 9 p.m. reservation—and honestly, it far exceeded our expectations. This was our very first experience with Persian/Iranian cuisine, and we were both genuinely impressed. My son is vegetarian, and they offered several thoughtful and flavorful options that he loved. I had the lamb, and it was perfectly cooked, rich, and delicious. The dessert? Absolutely exceptional—one of those rare moments when you consider ordering a second just to relive the experience. Service throughout the evening was warm, attentive, and professional. The staff took great care of us from start to finish. A special touch: the hotel’s Food and Beverage Manager, Michele, personally came by to greet us, which really highlighted their commitment to making guests feel welcome and appreciated. Ariana’s isn’t just a beautiful restaurant with excellent food—it’s an experience of hospitality done right. Highly recommend

First time trying Iranian cuisine and the flavors were great! The lamb kebab was tender and delicious, definitely the highlight of the meal. Service was friendly and efficient. We didn’t enjoy the desserts as much, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience. The atmosphere was nice and the restaurant design was stylish and comfortable. Would come back to try more!

It was my first time trying Persian cuisine, and I was invited to celebrate my birthday at this beautiful restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised by the warm atmosphere and the charming, feminine interior — it felt fresh and inviting. The food was absolutely incredible! Every single dish was a delight. I’m sorry I don’t remember all the exact names, but we tried their version of Olivier salad, arancini, beetroot salad, an amazing assortment of pickled vegetables, a main course with sea bass and kebab, and of course — their delicious bread that’s hard to stop eating. The desserts were also excellent — yes, they are quite sweet, but in the authentic Persian way that makes the whole experience feel special and true to its roots. Huge thanks to our waiter Johnny for his wonderful service and for helping us navigate the menu and choose drinks — excellent job! The restaurant truly exceeded my expectations.
