What to Avoid (3)

Food 3

  1. Irani bread Net −1
    “We ordered 1kg Mix grill it was amazing as usual no complaints about the meat kebab chickens. But this time the Irani bread quality was very bad actually I'm not sure if it's same for other days also. And they must work on their services as it's very slow. But Food Quality is mix grill is amazing.”
  2. Meat kebab Net −1
    “Very disappointing experience. I ordered a meat kebab and it was completely unacceptable. The meat was raw and undercooked, had an extremely strong and foul smell, and the texture was soft and mushy, as if it was spoiled.”

The Bottom Line

Seekh Kabab Restaurant is a busy Iranian and Arabic grill in Al Khawaneej, known mainly for kebabs and tikka. The menu gives you several ways to build a meal: a mix grill, meat kebab with rice, lamb chops, or the frequently praised tikka yoghurt. Reviewers often describe the grills as juicy, smoky and well seasoned, while the kobeda and zafrani chicken kebabs also receive specific praise.

The setting has an old-school roadside-diner feel, with indoor, outdoor and covered family seating. It suits casual meals with friends or family, and one review mentions free karak after eating. Prices are generally described as affordable or reasonable; one customer paid about 50 AED for two kinds of tikka, though that is a past customer report rather than a current menu price.

Crowding is the main practical drawback. Weekend queues, limited seats and tricky parking can turn a quick meal into a wait, while service has occasionally been slow enough for rice and roti to arrive after the kebabs. A few diners also reported flies and cleaning concerns, and delivery reliability has been criticised recently.

If you are driving in, follow the first service-road entrance, and consider an outdoor visit in winter when the weather is more comfortable.
