These people really care about pets so it's a pleasure to spend time in their space. Dubai has very little to offer in terms of being able to socialize your pet so this is a great and affordable option provided you can drop off and pick up your dog (taxis won't allow animals inside their cabs). Woof also offers boarding and grooming options and it's only 10DHS/ hr to allow them to romp and play with others.
For our little Madison, she was timid at first because she wasn't used to being around other dogs especially off their leads, but then got into the swing of things pretty quickly and even sharing the ball with other buddies. We noticed a happy difference in her demeanor even after only an hour of play so we are always looking to find the time to bring her back.
Caution: Space is limited so you will need to book ahead of time particularly for their services but it's worth it!

Does anyone know if this place is still open? I used to live across the way from them and order burgers all the time (YUM!), but now that I don't live as close and would like to place a delivery, noone answers the phone. I would be really sad if it's closed down!

Delicious healthy gluten-free options and really cute cafe where the decor brings the outdoors feel indoors (which is hard given our weather most of the year). I was impressed with how genuine the staff was about pleasing customers and even used their catering services to make my baby shower more memorable and tasty! Affordable, flexible (can design your own salads if needed due to allergies), and courteous. I don't ask for much! ;)

Oh boy, this isn't going to be pretty. Firstly, I have to say that I've enjoyed Ruth Chris' food for many yrs now and just spent my 3rd UAE Thanksgiving dinner there last night introducing visiting European visitors and old friends living here to the Thanksgiving concept so I thought this would be a great evening with good food. Well, the food was good, but the service was beyond crazy. Special Thanksgiving menu was 325AED including 2 glasses of wine which wasn't bad but not cheap either. We were 8 ppl and for some reason, the mgmt decided to scale down the portions per person to a few thin slices of turkey, tiny individual pots with about 3 tablespoons of sweetpotato mash (they gave us 6 pots for 8 people so not everyone got one), a half filled tiny pot of cranberry sauce pp (everyone requested more), 4 plates of greenbeans to be shared (of course), and 6 small muffins that were supposed to be the stuffing (again shared by 8 ppl). Not only did they not provide nearly enough food per person, but they didn't bother to check if we had enough to drink so our glasses were either empty or nearly empty during the 4 hr meal. When desert came (only 1 choice which was a cheescake), they served 4 guests and kept saying the others will come out soon (took nearly 20 mins and asking the server numerous times) before anyone could eat together. It was painful. IT WAS A SET MENU! Why in the world would they serve us in segments like that so some people finished their food before others got enough? Thanksgiving is all about the food and having it in abundance so this was a really cheap blow . Several of us let the 3 managers know about the problems on NUMEROUS occasions, got increasingly upset (some of the guests had to leave to catch their flight and requested separate checks to do so which was another painful experience), and finally reluctantly got another portion of food (they emphasized at no charge (!!)) and 2 cheap bottles of sparkling wine (not champagne) which I had to argue not to pay for given we were constantly waiting for their staff to serve us or respond to a request of any kind. I am sooo disappointed with this restaurant and was really hoping to love it since it is right by where we live and we had had such good experiences in the other Ruth Chris in the Monarch hotel over the years. I really regret talking this chain up to friends and ruining our special holiday with having to constantly get upset throughout the meal. Ugh.

I haven't actually been into this salon because I only use there mobile home services which I love :) Being pregnant, it's been a struggle to get out of the house so my beauty upkeep has been very sad of late (yes, even hubby has commented on it!). So I was excited to learn about Dial A Nail's home services and now my hands and feet are once again back to being pretty! Tip: They only open at 10am so be sure to book the day before if you want them to come to you before the morning is over (even just around the corner in the Marina). Mani-pedi cost me 130AED which is what I pay in the salon anyway but make sure you have change or request that they bring it in advance. On another note, I've been really concerned about all the chemicals that are normally in my products so I was even more excited to learn that they carry 'organic' nail polish brand ZOYA which is formaldehyde-free! I request that they bring only this with them when I book now.

When I used to work in Media City, I ordered from here all the time because it was consistent and a healthy option but I always had to order right when they phone lines opened if I wanted to receive my order by lunch since they get super busy. For the times I actually went into restaurant, I think the portions were better but the staff gets so busy that they often forget things like parts of your order. The prices are decent and the turnover is reassuring so that food is never left sitting for too long!

Very spacious and more on the quiet side which is perfect for meetings and to get some work done out of the office. I love how each cafe is a reading culture where they offer magazines and other reading material for you if you don't bring it for some quiet time and a huge selection of food. Beware of the soups though, since they famously give you a whole pot of soup which could easily serve 4 people so this is the best deal. And I love soup!

Recently went there for the Standub Comedy Night which was really fun. I wish they had more white wine choices instead of the boring Chardonney and Sauvignon Blanc for this kind of pub atmosphere but it was spacious and decent and good local. Also, this time was a vast improvement from when I went there the first time and they ran out of white wine for Happy Hour before 8pm!

I think this was meant to say in the Monarch Hotel not H Hotel... Anyway, the food here is great but the chairs are completely unsociable! We organized a birthday dinner here with 10 people and the table was so large, chairs like its own cubicle and spread out, that it was all but impossible to talk to anyone or get a vibe of some kind. We were relieved when we were done with the meal and moved next door to Okku to actually start having fun! So great place except for the furniture!

Very girl-friendly where you can grab trendy Japanese grub with your girlfriends while sipping on a well-made cocktail or a decent glass of wine. Sunday and Thursday get uber crowded with the pretty people of Dubai but worth going out to always run into old friends or make new ones. Pet peeve is the chain smoking all the smokers seem to compete in once there which can make people queasy fast especially since it's not a big space. Feel sorry for the pro staff who have to breathe it in every night!
