What else do you need other than some nice Lebanese food after a long party? This is the right place for that. The mix grill was so juicy and tender that it literally melted in the mouth. This is one of the best places to good some great food in Dubai. Took a sweet after the meal which was sweeter than the rest of the menu.

The most disgusting shawarma sandwitch I had ever had.
The chicken meet pink, partly raw partly burnt.
The lamb meet is hard and chewy.
Last but not least the zaatar which used to be good is now mixed with bread crumbs like the zaatar sandwitch at Carrefour.

Al Reef used to make the best Manakish in town, at least for the last 15 years.but this sadly seems to be over now.what I bought as Manakish today, was not even worth the name. Hard, dry and tasteless, the cheese version and the za'ater version. It is very sad to see an institution like this not live up to its former reputation.

Food was bit bland. Overall experience was good. Could use more flavour! Mukhtaar bakery in sharjah is a much better much more amazing experience.

The best cheese manaeesh in dubai. Your order will be freshly prepared right out of the oven. The superbly delicious manaeesh easily makes up for the lack of ambience or seating. Big choice of different kinds of freshly prepared manaeeshs.

Had their manakish today for breakfast. Although filling, the manakish size is small (unless you specifically ask for the large one which I felt is highly priced) compared to other bakeries taste of their manakish is also very plain. Their sweets and biscuits are good though and it would do them good if they could serve coffee. The cashier was a little rude and impatient but I'd probably let that pass. All in all, it's not a bad place to go to. And definitely worth a try if you are in the area but I've had better.

Love this place. The meat and cheese flat bread is simply the best. Have been going there since 2006. Simple offering with excellent value for money. Please try it out.

It's one of the only authentic bakeries left in Dubai. This is where you go to get a bit closer to the taste of real manakeesh.

This place is full of nostalgia, it feels and smells the same as the first time I visited more than 15 years ago.
The food is great

An authentic and cost effective place to treat yourself to Lebanese snacks. Love having the freshly made Arise here.

A classic, and for good reason! Al Reef is one of the original Lebanese bakeries of Dubai, with their fresh manaeesh the stuff of legend! An absolute must try

This place is an institution and serve fresh baked Manakeesh flat-bread from the Levant (Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Palestine) with an assortment of toppings. Toppings like lamb, cheese, zaatar, spinach, and more. Check out the menu to choose.

Nostalgic place from my childhood, the price has been increasing and the size decreasing ever since.
18 June 2019 11:50
Disappointing. There was too much cheese and only a little meet in the middle and it was soaked in water within seconds.
16 June 2019 18:11
Not bad but they don't have the Lebanese technique in baking and the interior is poor the have toilet paper on the table where we sat. Value for money is OK but they should more effort in technique and interior design.

So glad I finally got to try this place today
My friend picked up manaeesh from there this morning and brought them over
Meat quality is good
Dough is good, but I wish they cooked it a little more

Came here at 3 am for a snack after a night shift and the food was really bad! Ordered cheese and chicken Manakeesh and it was really bland.the Bakhlawa tasted stale. Wouldn’t recommend.
03 May 2019 19:30
Very deliciously manaqish bakery and it is quick to serve you with the thousand options of spreads, you just need to look at the long menus and end up with a watery mouth, small seating place with some refreshments close to you. Reasonably priced but I can tell you this is an amazing tasty and you will not regret it.
11 April 2019 17:24
We tried the manaish and we really really liked it! Definitely worth trying. Lebanese style manaish at it's best!

Yummy pastries, fresh out of the oven, they have drinks, cakes, bread, yogurt and many more organic staff, one of Dubai's best Managesh btw

It is different from the one next to Karama, so we were expecting few.extra tables to sit, but those were very few, scattered and empty.they didn't serve hammus, sandwiches or hot bread either unlike their other branch so that was a bit disappointing.the guy said: 'what do you expect, this is a bakery'. When we asked him why you don't serve everything else. Well, what is the other branch then?

they did have some one or the other passing by, stopping to buy bread. I know this has been an old outlet so one knows what to expect lind of, but I've been here for the first time and was not so impressed.

Great Lebanese style zaatar and cheese man’oushe.
The place doesn’t look that good but the food is.
28 March 2019 11:26
Yummy Lebanese manooshi! The cheese and the dough are so good. Felt I was back in Lebanon. Highly recommended!
18 March 2019 18:10
One of the oldest most lebanese bakery in Dubai serves variety of manakesh and fatayer very good place to grab quick breakfast or dinner
25 February 2019 12:23
امس تفاجاءت براءه الجوده العجين غير مختمر والطعم غير جيد اظررت لرمي الفطائر وعدم تناولها مع العلم اني زبوبه دائمه للمحل اتمنى ان ينبهوا لهلذه الملاحضه واخذها بعين الاعتبار
24 February 2019 16:49
One of the oldest in dubai and still had the same taste. Very nice place for take away Lebanese pastry and fatayer!

Super fast, super fresh manakeesh. I got a few treats to eat afterwards and was hoping to have a coffee with them but all they have is cold drinks in coolers. Definitely still worth it and I will be back.

I took a taxi across Dubai just to try this place today, and I was very happy that I did. The manaeesh and zaater were so fresh and enjoyable that I ordered more. I recommend eating it right on the spot when it comes out of the oven. The food was delicious, the prices were great, but the people were wonderful. They were so hospitable and happy to help and willing to let me try sweets I didn’t know. I’m very happy I found this place and met these people and had this food
27 January 2019 20:45
Lovely! Been going here since 22 years and this place hasn't changed the quality of food and the taste is still the same and brings back all thr memories and nostalgia. Feels great and hits the spot perfectly!
13 January 2019 20:57
This bakery is super star bakery lol my family and I just love them fresh prepared cheese and meat breads, mmmmmmm so yuuumyy.
03 January 2019 19:43
One of the best manaeesh in town! Been going there since I was a kid. Ask for “mashrooh” when you order manaeesh. It’s a bigger version of the normal manaeesh size and very tasty (throw the diet out the window for the day), you’ll thank me.
03 January 2019 19:34
Best manakish in the city. Hands down. Dont try any others. All gimmicks. This is the original and best in dubai
19 December 2018 21:59
Open 24/7. Always fresh and decent amount of cheese.
Try the spinach manakeesh, has a tangy taste to it.
17 December 2018 16:39
One of the most authentic Lebanese bakeries in Dubai. Their Lahem b Ajeen and Cheese & Zaatar manakeesh are my favorite. They also offer a variety of Lebanese sweets. There are limited seats for dine in so this place is perfect for a quick bite on the go.

I've been coming to this branch of Al reef for 20 years. One of the last bastions of old Dubai still left in Jumeirah. Reasonably priced freshly baked Lebanese produce. Try any of the manakeesh and marvel at the quirky English on the menu on the wall. I love their coconut macaroons. Worth a try and wash it all down with a nice laban drink from chtoora dairy.

The food is tasty, tables are too small to acomediate more than 2 people. It basic place but fulfill the need of killing the hunger. Make sure to explain clearly what you want, how it is cooked.etc.no washroom available (or at least u could not find it).
29 June 2018 2:04
Very nice manaqeesh Bakery with lot of options to offer. Prices are very reasonable compared to other bakeries in the area. Now they accept credit and debit card payments.
18 April 2018 12:53
It's a hidden gem in Karama serving 12 things. The kebabs are to die for. Start with the your choice of kebab and end your delicious meal with a glass of lassi which is not a regular lassi but a thick kick ass which needs to eaten with a help of a spoon. The cons about the place is the quantity is less. They should come up with combo option where people can try their all their kebabs in one go.
18 February 2018 18:17
Food is good but call 3 times over the phone. They didn't understand english well and in the end, no home delivery service provided saying their car ia broken. Went myself to collect.
