What to Eat at Mr Miyagi's Media City How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Mr Miyagi's Media City, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.
Foods and drinks mentioned in reviews of Mr Miyagi's Media City, ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

Shrimp pad thai Net +2
“9. Shrimp Pad Thai [AED 65]: Another Thai favorite that was done so well in true unique, Mr. Miyagi’s style. An egg net stretched across the contents of the dish. The noodles were slightly dry but we’re not complaining because it tasted so good, all of it together! It was different from what we’re used to but a good different. Yummy pieces of shrimp, tofu and egg were scattered all throughout the dish.”

“10. Chicken Katsu and Japanese Sticky RICE [AED 75]: This was a classic sticky white rice served with a helping of chicken katsu, which is basically crispy fried chicken breast pieces sliced in length on the rice. The outer layer of the chicken was crispy and light, and the chicken was cooked so well, soft and succulent meat. The dish was a fabulous meal overall!”

Tips for a Better Visit
Reserve ahead. Book ahead for busy brunches; one review warns that arriving without a reservation may mean no table.
Expect noise. Choose this for singing and socialising, not a quiet conversation over dinner.
Check karaoke. Ask what time karaoke finishes if you plan to stay late; one group left when it ended at 11pm.
Clarify seating. Check whether your package applies to the restaurant or bar, as one review says the two areas had different drink offers.
Plan parking. Allow extra time in Dubai Internet City: a first-time visitor struggled to find the building entrance and parking access.
Try standouts. For a safer first order, consider the dynamite shrimps or chicken katsu curry, both specifically recommended by a guest.

Common Concerns
Food inconsistency
Food feedback ranges from excellent to basic, salty, cold or mediocre, so the kitchen may be less reliable than the entertainment.
Very loud
The music, singing and crowd can make normal conversation difficult, particularly during busy brunches.
Expensive drinks
One guest found the drinks expensive, while older reviews also describe some cocktails as watery or overly sweet.
Early finish
Karaoke has ended at 11pm on at least one visit, cutting short a group’s planned evening.
Safety response
A guest reported being cut when a roof lantern fell during beer pong and felt the manager handled the incident poorly.
Customer-reported prices
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

The Bottom Line
Mr Miyagi’s is an Asian fusion restaurant in Dubai Internet City where the main draw is the evening energy. You can eat Asian dishes, join karaoke, sing with the entertainment team and, on selected brunches, combine food and drinks with a lively show. It suits groups, birthdays and friends who want a night out rather than a quiet meal.
The food has some clear bright spots. Guests specifically recommend the dynamite shrimps, chicken katsu curry and popcorn chicken, while shrimp dumplings, vegetarian dumplings and Thai green vegetable curry also receive praise. Older reviews mention dim sum, sushi, sashimi and bento-style meals.
Still, the kitchen is inconsistent: other diners found food basic, salty, cold or mediocre, including one complaint about a very tough crispy chilli beef. Expect a loud room, especially during brunch or karaoke, with singing, dancing and sometimes a move into a disco area. That atmosphere is a strength if you want to participate, but it can overwhelm conversation.
Packages and drink deals appear in reviews, though reported value varies; clarify what is included and whether karaoke will run as late as you expect. Reserve ahead on busy nights, and allow time to find parking and the entrance.
