If you are looking for something authentic in Dubai, my absolute favourite after all these years is still Al Safadi. You can go to the one on Sheikh Zayed Road – right before the Dusit Hotel or Al-Rigga Street. Al Safadi has the best EVERYTHING in Dubai! The Shawarma is outstanding!!
Excellent food, quick and efficient service (though not so friendly) , the price is very reasonable for the quality of food you get (in other words…dirt cheap), and a nice garden to sit outside in the cooler months. Wonderful selection of cold and hot meze (dips and nibbles), and they have fresh fruit juices, including exotics like avocado. Other than the shawarma, I particularly love their mixed grill and grilled seafood (the prawns and squids)
In conclusion, Al Safadi have the tastiest Shawarma I have ever tasted! This is the true truth because I say it as it is…
