What to Eat at Na3na3 Cafe 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 Na3na3 Cafe, 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.

Spinach with meat Net +1
“One of my favorite dishes is Spinach with Meat but it is very rare that you find this dish in UAE restaurants and when you do, they usually use the shredded kind of spinach so you don't feel you're really eating anything and they barely put nay meat. To my surprise, their Spinach and meat meal is just as good as the one my mom prepares! Big fresh Spinach leaves and a very generous portion of meat and pines, it tastes insanely good!”

Tips for a Better Visit
Book games. Book ahead when there is a match or event, as one reviewer specifically recommended it.
Check broadcast. If a match matters to your visit, confirm the available channel first rather than assuming every sports service is working.
Try fatteh. Order the fatteh hummus yogurt; one repeat visitor called it a must-try.
Plan parking. Allow for the two-hour limit and possible 10-dirham-per-hour charges if you plan to linger.
Choose rooftop. Try the rooftop in winter for a cosy setting, but expect some nearby Kartdrome noise.

The Bottom Line
Na3na3 Cafe is a Lebanese restaurant in Motor City that suits relaxed meals, breakfast visits and shisha sessions. The menu has enough range for a group: reviewers mention fatteh hummus yogurt, mix grill, spinach with meat and saffron milk cake, while the rooftop adds an outdoor option for lingering over food and drinks. The standout food details are unusually specific.
One reviewer praised the spinach with meat for its big fresh leaves, generous meat and pine nuts, while others highlighted hummus with meat, tabbouleh, mashawi and breakfast dishes such as lahm baajin and basterma mano. The saffron milk cake is another strong dessert mention, though the rice pudding received a more mixed assessment. Service is a major part of the experience, with repeated comments about warm, attentive hospitality.
Shisha is also a central draw, including kiwi mint and Pinkman flavours, and the venue has separate smoking and non-smoking zones. The rooftop can be cosy in winter, although its position beside Dubai Kartdrome brings some background noise. If you are coming for football, book during games or events and check the broadcast setup first: one visitor reported IPTV-only coverage and problems with the TV.
Parking is limited to two hours, then costs 10 dirhams per hour.
