Reviews
The meal commenced with appetizers that set a high bar. The yellowtail sashimi was fresh and delicate, while the roasted bone marrow was a revelation rich and flavorful, perfectly complemented by its accompaniments.
For the main courses, the prime skirt steak was cooked to perfection, boasting a savory caramelized onion jus that enhanced its robust flavor. The lamb shank exceeded expectations, tender and succulent, showcasing the chef’s mastery in preparation.
Concluding the meal, the Dubai chocolate bar dessert was a decadent treat, offering a perfect balance of sweetness and richness that left a lasting impression.
The restaurant’s ambiance is both elegant and inviting, with a modern design that doesn’t overshadow the warmth of the dining experience. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, providing service that was both professional and personable.
No doubt about the food, it’s fantastic. The beef cheek molé was as good as it could’ve been, and the pork chop steak was the perfect texture I wanted it to be.
But the service, we waited to see a server for 5min and got waters after 15min, then waited 40min to get our starters… I understand they are really busy but i think they should not accept this many reservations if they can’t manage it properly. This wasn’t the horrible experience but if you go to those type of restaurants, they expect more than this.
Cocktails – they weren’t bad but they were one note. For the price, I was expecting a bit more flavor.
Our server was amazing. And the hostess always able to squeeze us in on a Saturday night without a reservation.
I’m looking forward to coming back and trying more!
Spanish octopus did not have enough flavor and was burnt rather than charred. It could have benefitted from a marinate prior to being prepared. The dish also lacked cohesion. While the black olive yogurt was delicious, it did not fit on the plate and distracted from the rest of the dish.
The pork chop was overcooked and dry, however the mostarda was very good. The braised beans lacked a big pinch of salt.
The fillet mignons were well cooked but did not brine for long enough – the salt did not penetrate into the meat and the inside of the steak was unseasoned.
The dessert was too sweet and did not have any creativity in it.
Service was good, but overeager. They also add a 3% surcharge due to “California” that you have to ask to be removed from the bill.
The atmosphere was too loud and cramped, but it did have nice decor.
We will return as often as we can afford.
We split the Beet Salad, and Ravioli. Both just outstanding.
Mains, I had the Smoked Pork Chop. Wow, smoked flavor was perfect and the reduction sauce topper! Wow, what intense rich flavor. If it was so rude I would have liked the plate.
Wife had the Halibut and that was also beautiful.
Now Desserts, we had the Apple Crisp which I thought was to die for until I tasted my wife’s Panna Cotta, Wow rich and tasty. Perfect compo of sharp strawberry sorbet and sweet cream with these tiny coco balls. Oh my gosh another dish worth plate licking. I didn’t but I wanted to.
Wife also had an Espresso Martini that was excellent, rather than too much sweet Bailey’s they take a small amount and make a Bailey’s cream foam on top. Well done.
Thank you Amar and the entire serving staff for such a wonderful Top Chef experience.
I highly recommend Broadway by Amar.
