This has to be one of my favorite lunch places. I have also eaten a few times at the one in DIFC. The food is good! The Bateel risotto is excellent! They leave Olive oil on the table and they serve great bread too. Food is delivered quickly and the service is good. The view over the Marina makes for... More

Visited a number of times in our latest (13th?) Dubai stay - food at breakfast & lunch excellent. Haven't visited in the evening but the setting with all the evening lighting around the Marina should be spectacular. Expect a good choice of well-prepared food, comfortable seating, sun shades and fantastic views of the most popular end of Dubai Marina Walk.... More

The food and service is pretty goid here and the prices are average. However, the scenic view is what makes this place a speical one. Having a Bateel couscous salad as people were passing by relaxinflg and interedting. Meanwhile, the surrounding trees and the builing around are lit up, which gave the night a special ambiance.

One of the best on the Marina walk. They have a variety of choices in their breakfast menu. We tried the omelette and cheese croissant which were delicious

consistently delicious lunch offering, and excellent sweets. the one point that is a bit annoying at each visit is the very slow and unorganized service. expect to wait for 15 minutes to pay your bill around lunchtime

I went to Cafe Bateel upon a colleagues recommendation and was really wowed by the food. Four of us ordered lentil soup, a chicken zaatar sandwich, a prawn avocado salad and a Nicoise salad. Everything was good. Even the service was far better than most establishments I have visited so far. I highly recommend the Nicoise. The tuna was fresh... More
