“Decided to try the iced hazelnut latte and iced coffee from here on two different days. Had them to go but I can definitely see myself coming in for a breakfast and coffee on another occasion. Staff was nice enough to bring the coffee out to my car on the second visit here since my dog was with me and I couldn’t leave him unattended in the car. I loved both the drinks, it’s damn good coffee ☕️”

Share flatbread. Consider sharing the zaatar flatbread: one reviewer found the portion huge enough for two people.
Check availability. Ask what is available before ordering, since a review noted that some menu items were unavailable.
Plan seating. Expect limited dine-in space; takeaway may be easier than waiting for one of the few tables.
Check sides. If you want fries with a burger, confirm the order first because one reviewer said they were not included.
Allow time. Build in extra preparation time if ordering a sandwich, as one customer reported an 18-minute wait.
Try breakfast. For a morning visit, the Moroccan shakshuka and zaatar flatbread are two of the clearest review-backed picks.

The venue is very small, with reviewers describing only a few tables and a stronger takeaway and delivery feel.
One Nashville chicken burger had an extremely fishy taste and bitter aftertaste, making that order unpleasant.
A delivered burger arrived soggy, with damp wrapping, while the chicken strips were slightly dry.
A reviewer waited 18 minutes for a sandwich, suggesting preparation speed can vary.
One dine-in review reported an old-frying-oil smell lingering inside and on clothes and hair.
The Bottom Line
Next Door Street is a small international street-food restaurant in Mirdif with a relaxed, low-key atmosphere and a strong takeaway following. The clearest reasons to visit are the smash burgers, zaatar flatbread, Moroccan shakshuka and churros. One reviewer called the Oklahoma smash burger especially crisp and flavorful, while another praised the flatbread dough for being chewy, crispy and soft at once.
Breakfast is a genuine strength rather than an afterthought. The Moroccan shakshuka and Portobello mushroom eggs croissant both received enthusiastic feedback, and the espresso bar covers drinks such as iced coffee and an iced hazelnut latte. Portions can be generous: the zaatar flatbread was described as large enough to share.
The trade-off is space. Reviews describe only three tables or similarly limited seating, so takeaway or delivery may be more comfortable than planning a long dine-in visit. Preparation speed has also been uneven, with one sandwich taking 18 minutes.
Delivery packaging is well regarded, but a burger arrived soggy in one order. Food quality is not completely consistent: the Nashville chicken burger was reported as strongly fishy, and some fried-chicken items were called average. Check availability and whether fries are included before ordering.
Prices divide opinion, although one customer considered a 69-dirham short rib sandwich worthwhile.
