Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6
1

Reduce Spice. Ask for less spice if needed: the red-masala seafood can run hot, and staff have accommodated reduced-spice requests.

2

Try Arabic. For a milder fish grill, ask for the Arabic way; one diner specifically found it delicious without heavy heat.

The Bottom Line

Sea Brill is a seafood restaurant in Al Qusais where the main decision is which fish and preparation to choose. Reviews repeatedly mention fresh sea bream, sea bass, prawns, squid and hamour, with the grilled sea bream standing out for juicy flesh and crisp skin. Mandi rice is a popular accompaniment, and diners can select red or green masala, among other preparations.

The broasted prawns are a frequent recommendation, although one diner preferred the grilled version. Staff are generally described as polite and attentive, and several reviews say they followed requests about spice level or doneness. Indoor, outdoor and majlis-style seating are available.

The setting is often described as clean and welcoming, though one branch visit reported shabby interiors and dirty walls, while another review wished for more seating. Plan for possible crowds at peak times and allow extra time for parking. The food is usually considered good value, but opinions on pricing and consistency are not uniform: one reviewer found the meal expensive for its quality, and another noted that rice can occasionally be dry.

Ask for Arabic-style grilling or reduced spice if you prefer milder fish, and clarify whether rice is included with your order.
