Caesar salads Net −1

“I honestly just had one of the worst Caesar salads in Dubai. The dressing tasted nothing like a proper Caesar—it felt more like plain yogurt, completely missing that classic rich, savory flavor you expect. On top of that, the portion of chicken was unbelievably small, almost symbolic. It’s disappointing when such a simple dish is done so poorly.”
Delmya lamb Net −1

Kurdish kebab Net −1

“1- Kurdish Kebab was so oily and tasteless, too much fat on it”

The Bottom Line

Miran Erbil Iraqi is a Kurdish-style Iraqi restaurant in Umm Suqeim for traditional Iraqi cooking, particularly masgouf fish, KABAB Arbil, dolma and quzi. The reviews make it appealing for diners who want a full meal rather than just a single grilled dish: mains are often accompanied by soup, salad, pickles and flatbread, with tea, dates or watermelon sometimes arriving afterwards. The masgouf is a standout for some visitors because they could watch the fish being cooked over wood fire.

Dolma, Iraqi qaymar, kubba and kebabs also receive specific praise, while one reviewer called the grilled fish generously portioned. The room is spacious and stylish, with indoor and streetside patio seating; music adds atmosphere without necessarily making conversation difficult. Families and birthday groups are mentioned too.

Service is usually described as warm, attentive and professional, although a few diners experienced slow service or poor follow-through on takeaway packing. Food is not universally consistent: one lunch found the Kurdish kebab and lamb stew too oily, with a small lamb portion, and another strongly disliked the Caesar salad. Parking feedback varies between free valet service and difficulty finding parking, so checking ahead is sensible.
