The Bottom Line

Clove Tree is a Pan Indian restaurant in Dubai Silicon Oasis, inside Silicon Central Mall, with a menu that suits both everyday dining and occasions. You can order regional Indian dishes such as Chicken Pot Biryani, Bamboo Biryani, butter chicken and paneer starters, or choose the all-day brunch. The high tea is another standout: reviews describe a spread of dhokla, samosas, Bombay chilli cheese toast, stuffed besan chilla and desserts.

Presentation is a consistent strength. Diners mention innovative plating, generous brunch portions and a warm, quiet setting, while the service is often described as attentive and quick. The restaurant has also hosted a birthday gathering of around 15 people, making it a reasonable option for a small family celebration.

Breakfast promotions and high tea can add value, but confirm current terms before visiting. There are a few caveats. Food appears somewhat inconsistent: one diner found the erachichore under-seasoned, another called the lamb biryani too oily, and a separate review found biryani bland and butter chicken overly sweet.

Appetiser portions may feel small for the price, and one customer disliked the chairs. If you are sensitive to spice, ask before ordering; parking arrangements should also be confirmed.
