What to Eat at Patio Gourmet Lebanese & Turkish Cuisine 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 Patio Gourmet Lebanese & Turkish Cuisine, 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.

Chicken mixed grill Net −1
“Nice food. Chicken mixed grill was disappointing but ok. Price 102 dirhams with a coke. Looks a lot when it arrives but not as much chicken as expected or showing on menu. Definitely eat there again but choose something different.”

Tips for a Better Visit
Try sunset. For a more atmospheric meal, consider arriving around 6 or 7pm, when one repeat diner enjoyed the sunset.
Choose carefully. If ordering a mixed grill, consider choosing a version other than the chicken mixed grill, which received one poor review.
Allow patience. When the restaurant is busy, allow extra time for drinks; one diner received them with the main dishes.
Sit outside. Ask about the outside seating area if you would rather dine outdoors, keeping in mind that the street location can be loud.

The Bottom Line
Patio Gourmet is a Lebanese and Turkish restaurant in Jumeirah Beach Residence, known in reviews for grilled dishes, generous portions and attentive hospitality. You can order Adana Kebab, Mix Grill, Lahmeh Bajeen or lighter favourites such as pomegranate juice and Turkish tea. The menu suits both individual meals and family-style sharing.
The grills are the clearest draw. Diners describe the meat as fresh, juicy and well cooked, while one family praised the sharing platters and generous portions. Lahmeh Bajeen was singled out as especially flavorful, and Turkish tea—sometimes served with fresh mint—often rounds off the meal.
Some visits also included welcome snacks or complimentary items. Service is a major part of the experience: reviews repeatedly mention warm, attentive staff who offer menu guidance and make families feel comfortable. The setting is described as beautiful, peaceful or cozy, with outside seating available.
For a sunset atmosphere, one repeat diner suggested arriving around 6 or 7pm. There are a few reasons to order selectively. The chicken mixed grill disappointed one diner, fattoush was criticised for excess vinegar, and another review found the dates avocado salad messy and the falafel bland and oily.
Street-side seating can be loud, and drinks may arrive late during busy periods. One reported bill was 102 dirhams with a Coke for the chicken mixed grill.
