Food 9

Seaweed salad Net +8

“The spicy tuna and seaweed salad were definite highlights.”
African powerhouse Net +7

“We were absolutely amazed by everything we ate and drank. I’d like to add that I’m not a big fan of dark chocolate but that African powerhouse completely changed my mind and is easily one of the best things I’ve ever had.”
Salmon carpaccio Net +7

“The salmon carpaccio was actually my highlight.”
Fish burger Net +4

“We also had the fish burger which is the best fish burger I have ever had. The fillet of the fish is so thick and battered very well. But I would suggest to call them up for the burger as they have limited stock and is usually sold out by 1st half of the day.”
Beef carpaccio Net +3

“The beef carpaccio was fresh and had an amazing texture and flavor to it, I’d recommend it if you don’t mind raw meat.”
Chicken wings Net +2

“The chicken wings are a highlight, packed with flavor and executed precisely.”

“Pretty impressed by 3Fils. Top sushi and they did a great job with the blue fin tuna sashimi! Beautiful and calm location that was a great contrast from the bustling downtown area. Great getaway place for a nice lunch, will definitely visit again. Cool that they have own brewed beverages.

Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6

Arrive early. Go early to avoid the evening queue; one diner had no wait at 6pm, while tables were waiting by 8pm.

Expect queues. Plan for a walk-in visit rather than a booked table; one review reported waiting about 35 minutes.

The Bottom Line

3Fils is a Japanese-emphasis restaurant in Jumeirah where the menu stretches well beyond standard sushi. You can order carefully prepared nigiri and sashimi, seafood dishes such as salmon carpaccio, and richer plates including the wagyu burger and lamb ribs. The African Powerhouse dessert is another recurring favourite, particularly for its chocolate, sea salt and vanilla ice cream combination.

The harbourfront setting is a major part of the appeal. Reviews describe calm waterside seating, coastal views and a relaxed atmosphere, though outdoor dining is most comfortable in cooler weather. Service is consistently described as quick, friendly and attentive, and staff are often praised for useful menu recommendations.

There are practical trade-offs. 3Fils is walk-in only, and an evening queue is common; one diner waited roughly 35 minutes, while another had no wait at 6pm. Arriving early is the safest approach.

Parking may also be limited at peak times. Several customers feel portions are small for the price, and a few found individual dishes disappointing, including a cold burger or fatty lamb. If you are dining alone, ask about half portions on selected two-piece dishes, and check fish-burger availability because it can sell out early.
