“Very delicious hot chocolate !😋☕️ I had the hot chocolate from Mondoux and I am happy to say that is was so good . I love how light it tasted and it’s wasn’t too sweet or bitter it was in between . I also really loved the texture it was creamy but not too creamy . However it did have a slight powdery taste to it . The service there was very good they still gave us a seat even though we took the hot chocolates for take away and they treated us with kindness and respect . The atmosphere there is stunning especially the outdoor area where you could see the view of the Dubai skyline . In conclusion this place kindly served amazing hot chocolate and has a great seating spot .”

“‘Profiteroles’: this was beyond dreamyyy to devour, the perfect sized bites are filled with their homemade venilla pastry cream, placed on a warm bed of custard, sprinkled with powdered sugar and served with warm chocolate sauce. What makes this dessert even delicious is that the plate itself is warmed before serving and that makes a whole lot of a delightful difference. These profiteroles were so rich and silky in texture the shells were baked to perfection, the cream filling and the custard wasn’t too sweet and ofcourse the quality of the hot chocolate was top notch 👌🏻. Loved how elegant and delicate the flavours were ✨. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Mama was in loveee! ♥️”May 2026
“We also tried their ‘Valronha Chocolate Fondant’ 🍫: another classic dessert that you simply cannot resist! Made to order this irresistible dessert is served with Ice Cream 🍨 and raspberries. We had to impatiently wait till it cools down a bit 😂 but oh wow! the chocolate inside was soooo delicious!! The quality of the ice cream was perfect and the combination of everything was drool worthy 🤤. The tartness of the raspberries add another depth to this sweet dish! Only drawback was we wished the fondant was a cooked a bit more as it felt soupy- but a addictive soup 😜.”

“Mondoux is a must-try! The food here is amazing. I absolutely loved the decadent French Toast with fresh berries and the perfectly executed Eggs Benedict with Pastrami. The atmosphere is lovely, but the service truly stands out. A huge shoutout to our waiter, Precilla, who was simply amazing—attentive, professional, and made our brunch experience fantastic. Highly recommend Mondoux for a delightful meal and top-notch service!”

Try breakfast. For a first visit, consider the French toast with berries; it is one of the clearest breakfast standouts in the reviews.
Check timing. If ordering several breakfast dishes, ask about serving timing so one person is not waiting while another starts eating.
Ask dietary. Ask the team about lactose-free and gluten-free choices before ordering; reviewers found them willing to explain the options.
Use play area. Families with toddlers can make use of the dedicated kids’ play area during the meal.
Choose outdoors. For terrace seating and the waterfront atmosphere, winter is the season one repeat visitor specifically favours.
Check loyalty. If you expect to return, ask about the loyalty app, which one reviewer described as offering cashback and a welcome reward.

Breakfast and coffee did not always arrive together, with one review noting the food came first.
An açaí bowl arrived well before the second breakfast dish, creating a long wait for one diner.
One customer found the restaurant a little pricey, even while considering the food worth it.
The matcha latte disappointed one reviewer, despite the cheesecake being well received.
The chocolate fondant was considered too soupy by one diner, who would have preferred it cooked longer.
The Bottom Line
MONDOUX is a café-restaurant in Dubai Creek Harbour where breakfast, coffee, main dishes and desserts come with a waterfront setting. French toast with berries is a frequent breakfast highlight, while the dessert menu has more elaborate choices such as profiteroles and Valrhona chocolate fondant. The açaí bowl and veg bowl also suit lighter, health-focused meals.
The setting is calm, spacious and comfortable for lingering over coffee or catching up. Outdoor seating brings the water and skyline into the experience, while the indoor kids’ play area makes the branch practical for families with young children. Reviews also describe the food as fresh and well presented, with vegan choices and staff able to explain lactose-free and gluten-free options.
There are a few things to keep in mind. The restaurant can feel expensive, and breakfast timing is not always perfectly synchronised: one reviewer received the açaí bowl long before the other dish, while another received breakfast before the coffee. The matcha latte has had a mixed review, and the chocolate fondant may be softer than some diners expect.
For repeat visits, one customer mentioned a loyalty app with around 15% cashback and a welcome reward.
