Set the heat. Tell the team how spicy you want your food; reviewers say they adjusted Thai spice to suit their preference.
Try lunch. Consider a lunchtime visit, especially around the surrounding offices; one review found the area quieter and better suited to noon.
Check lunch value. If you want a set meal, ask about the business lunch, which one reviewer said included a starter, main and dessert for 69 Dirhams.
Use parking. For a car visit, a review mentions plentiful parking outside Bay Avenue Mall.
Share tables. For larger parties, expect smaller tables to be joined together; booking or arriving outside peak periods may make seating easier.

Thai authenticity is not consistent for every diner: some reviewers found the spices off or the flavours toned down.
The restaurant can feel cramped when busy, with small two-person tables combined for larger groups.
One diner felt the price was high relative to the ambience, taste and service, and found service slower than nearby options.
The vegan Pad Thai was described as bland and needed extra chilli sauce.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

“At 69 Dirhams their business lunch is a fantastic proposition”Google review · June 2019
The Bottom Line
Eat Fuchsia is a Thai restaurant in Business Bay where reviewers come back for Pad Thai, green curry and mango sticky rice. The menu also works well for plant-based diners: reviews mention a full vegan menu, vegan katsu curry and a vegan Tom Yum that could be made less spicy on request. Catering is another option, with one customer praising the Pad Thai and green curry for arriving on time and being set up efficiently.
The strongest pattern is friendly, attentive service. Reviewers describe staff as welcoming and quick, while the dining room is modern, clean and comfortable; one review also mentions an open kitchen. Coconut water, Thai iced teas and the butterfly-pea rice in a complimentary mango sticky rice dessert add a few distinctive touches.
There is some disagreement about authenticity. Diners with different expectations have found the seasoning either convincingly Thai or toned down, and one vegan Pad Thai was considered bland until chilli sauce was added. The restaurant is small, so busy evenings can mean tight two-person tables and slower service.
For value, an older review highlighted a 69-dirham business lunch with starter, main and dessert, while another found pricing high for the setting. Parking outside Bay Avenue Mall was described as plentiful.
