“I usually go for the poached eggs on avocado toast - its served on rye bread which isn’t my favorite so i usually replace it by either brown or white toast. I also tend to have pancakes or french toast, the portion is pretty big so make sure to share it if you’re having another dish as well.”August 2020

Plan Parking. Allow extra time for parking and ask about validation; one review says parking can be tricky despite validation being available.
Avoid Peaks. For a calmer breakfast, try a weekday morning rather than a busy weekend or Friday afternoon, when waits and slower service have been reported.
Share Portions. If ordering another dish, consider sharing the pancakes or French toast first: one reviewer says the portions are big.
Try Outdoors. Choose outdoor seating when Dubai’s winter weather is pleasant; it is repeatedly singled out as the more enjoyable setting.
Ask Vegan. If you eat plant-based, ask the team for recommendations rather than assuming the choices are limited; reviewers found plenty of vegan options.
Check Extras. Confirm add-on availability and charges before ordering: one diner requested extra fruit and found it charged on the invoice.
Plan the visit
Parking nearby can be difficult, and one visitor had to park across the street and walk in the late-May heat.
The restaurant is not large, and indoor seating can feel crowded, especially near the coffee machine.
Weekend breakfast may involve a wait, with reviews mentioning around 15 to 20 minutes for a table.
One Friday-afternoon visit found the food below expectations and service slow with several requests.
Some diners feel the portions are not quite priced for the experience, while others consider City Walk pricing expected.
The Bottom Line
Sarabeth’s City Walk is a breakfast-focused restaurant in Al Wasl where the menu runs from pancakes and French toast to avocado toast and salmon Benedict. The strongest consensus is around the pancakes, often described as fluffy and generous, and the French toast, including the French Almond Toast and crunchy apple version. The salmon Benedict also has a loyal following, with one diner praising its freshly baked bread, salmon and well-cooked eggs.
Portions can be substantial: the chicken waffle sandwich was described as large enough to feed two, while pancake and French toast portions may be worth sharing if you order another dish. Vegan diners can ask for guidance, as one reviewer found plenty of suitable options, and families have a generous kids menu. Coffee and juices receive positive mentions too.
The setting is warm and bright indoors, with outdoor seating that is especially appealing in winter. The trade-off is space: the restaurant is small, and indoor tables can feel crowded. Weekend waits of roughly 15 minutes, and one 20-minute wait, are part of the picture.
Parking is another practical nuisance, although a reviewer says validation is available. Prices are in line with what some expect at City Walk, but at least one diner wanted better value for the portions.
