Common Concerns

Showing 2 of 5

Uneven service

Service can vary: one three-hour dinner included only one drink check-in, and another guest found servers difficult to flag down.

Low chairs

The individual chairs are notably low, which may be uncomfortable for taller diners or guests wearing heels.

The Bottom Line

Flamingo Room by tashas is a polished modern European restaurant in Umm Suqeim, inside the Jumeirah Al Naseem setting. Its food carries a clear African influence, and the restaurant suits date nights, family meals and celebrations. Reviewers particularly return for Calamari Mozambique, lobster pasta, mushroom lasagne and the baked Alaska.

The setting is a major part of the visit: pink-toned interiors, high ceilings, baobab light installations and outdoor tables near the water all appear in the reviews. Portions are often described as generous, and the team has handled birthdays with personalised cakes and family tables with toddlers. Guests with celiac disease also report unusually thoughtful gluten-free support, including fresh gluten-free bread.

Book ahead, especially for dinner, as the restaurant can fill up. If conversation matters, avoid the bar area, where reviews mention louder music and smoking nearby; the side near the gift shop was described as quieter. Prices are generally seen as upscale, and service is not completely consistent: many diners found it warm and attentive, but others struggled to catch servers or felt unwelcome at the host stand.

Vegan diners should check carefully, since reviews point to a lack of proper plant-based options.
