What to Avoid (6)

Food 6

  1. Cesar salad Net −1
    “The Cesar salad had a good dressing made inhouse with real anchovies but the lettuce was old and stale, the cheese was not Parmesan and the chicken was grilled and not smoked as claimed”
  2. Dark rye bread Net −1
    “We received a bread basket which had dark rye bread and a harvest bread, all looked great with good crust but that is where the buck stopped. The inside if the bread was just wrong in taste and texture.”
  3. Feta salad Net −1
    “The feta salad was a failure in all fronts that I don't even want to get into.”
  4. Harvest bread Net −1
    “We received a bread basket which had dark rye bread and a harvest bread, all looked great with good crust but that is where the buck stopped. The inside if the bread was just wrong in taste and texture.”
  5. Lasagna Net −1
    “Food was good but they've changed the menu to burgers and pizzas which doesn't go together with the fancy interior. Very quiet and intimate place, used to be great for dates when the menu was more appropriate. Lasagna tasted like ragu. Pizzas have a bit of a sour aftertaste - maybe that's their signature but I wasn't a fan.”
  6. Rib eye-medium rare steak Net −1
    “Rib Eye-Medium Rare Steak, got it rare. Not evenly cooked due to the uneven thickness of the meat cut. The surface is boiled on the grill and not properly seared; there is no Maillard reaction.”

Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 5

Use parking. Paid parking is available at both the front and back, so check those areas before circling nearby streets.

2

Check smoke. If you need a smoke-free table, ask exactly where it is and whether lounge-door traffic could let smoke through.

Common Concerns

Showing 2 of 4

Smoke drift

Smoke can reach the supposed non-smoking area when the cigar-lounge door is opened, which is a serious issue for babies and smoke-sensitive diners.

Packaging concern

One cigar-lounge visitor reported hygiene problems with food packaging and returned the food to the kitchen.

The Bottom Line

Quince is a sizeable, design-led restaurant in Al Barsha that works for more than a standard meal. You can come for breakfast and homemade croissants, order pizzas and pasta, book a business lunch, or settle into the cigar lounge with coffee or juice. The sourdough-crust pizza, truffle pizza and diavola pizza are the clearest recurring food draws, while the vegan pasta bolognese gives plant-based diners a well-reviewed option.

The setting is one of the restaurant’s strengths: reviews describe a spacious, stylish interior, comfortable seating and music quiet enough for working. The cigar lounge is a genuine part of the experience, not just a passing mention, and the bakery also handles bread and dessert pickups. Service is usually described as warm and attentive, with staff often helping guests choose from the menu.

There are a few reasons to plan carefully. Smoke can drift into the non-smoking area when the lounge door opens, making it a poor fit for babies or anyone sensitive to smoke. Breakfast service was slow for one Saturday-morning visitor, and one review raised a food-packaging hygiene concern.

Portions and execution have also been inconsistent in isolated reports. Paid parking is available at the front and back, and the business lunch may offer better value than ordering à la carte.
