  9. Fish fry Net −1
    “I told to add onions for fish fry, i opened my order in the restaurant and notified that its not kept. Still you assured its inside the aluminium foil of the fry. And its not... How many times i said dont forget the onions, dont forget the onions right from order desk down to the waiter....!!!!! Also the items are cold.. Atleast microwave and put inside aluminuim.. Whats the point of cold fried fish inside aluminuim??”
  10. Iftar kit Net −1
    “People are nice. Their iftar kit is not recommended. For 12 dirhams I got one small bottle water and small watermelon juice with half piece of samosa and fritters. Seriously there are much more fruitful offers!”
  11. Kothu porotta Net −1
    “Very disappointed. I ordered Kothu Porotta, but the dish was full of bone pieces, which made it unsafe and impossible to eat. This is extremely careless and unacceptable for a prepared food item. I couldn’t trust the quality after this and had to stop eating. Hygiene and food safety need serious improvement. Would not recommend.”
  12. Mango fish curry Net −1
    “And we picked two curries for porotta: mango fish curry, which is made up of avoli (pomfret) and spring chicken. The porotta was fresh and crisp, and the spring chicken was both tasty and of superior quality. The fish curry was both plenty and delicious. However, the fish was not fresh, which is why it was given three stars rather than four.”

    “Onion pakadoa has no onions”
  14. Vegetable kurma Net −1

beef curry with paratha

The Bottom Line

Green Land Restaurant is a casual, 24-hour stop in Al Qusais for filling food rather than a polished sit-down occasion. Grilled chicken is the clearest draw: one review describes a generous platter with well-marinated, charred chicken and crisp fries, while another calls the charcoal version excellent and spicy. Kerala and South Indian choices are also prominent, including ghee roast dosa with beef curry, porotta, ghee rice with chicken curry, biriyani and karak tea.

Prices can look attractive. A customer reported biriyani at 12 AED, and another remembered a beef curry with paratha breakfast costing around 20–25 AED. 50 AED at this branch versus 28 AED elsewhere.

The main practical concern is consistency. Dine-in service is sometimes praised as friendly and fast, but delivery reviews describe waits from 45 minutes to nearly three hours. Other complaints mention cold, overcooked or foul-smelling food, hair on chicken and insects around the dining area.

The small restaurant can also fill up, so an off-peak visit and a price check before ordering are sensible precautions.
