What to Eat at Sizzlin' Steak - Flayva Food Hall Al Ghurair Centre Mall 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 Sizzlin' Steak - Flayva Food Hall Al Ghurair Centre Mall, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. We still have more reviews to analyze, so the scores may change. 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.
Foods and drinks mentioned in reviews of Sizzlin' Steak - Flayva Food Hall Al Ghurair Centre Mall, ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

Ribeye steak Net 0
Only neutral feedback
“We ordered the Ribeye Steak and the Crying Tiger Steak. The overall taste was great, and the portion sizes were generous. The only downside was the cooking temperature—we asked for medium-well, but both steaks came out well-done, which made the meat a bit chewy.”

Penne bolognese Net −1
“I ordered the penne bolognese (AED 28) with iced tea (AED 5) from Sizzlin' Steak. The food arrived in about 15 minutes. The penne was cooked al dente, which I appreciated. However, the bolognese sauce could use some improvement, it was a bit too light in portion, making the pasta feel dry. The flavor leaned more toward raw tomato rather than a rich, savory, meaty taste, and the meat itself was a little bland. That said, the dish has good potential with some refinement to the sauce.”

Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm doneness. Repeat your preferred steak doneness when ordering and check it on arrival, since medium requests were reported as well-done.
Avoid opening. If you want to order immediately, arrive after opening time; one customer found stalls still preparing at 10 AM.
Allow buffer. Build in extra time during a busy visit, as another customer waited about 25 minutes for an order.
Try the steak. The Crying Tiger steak received a strong report for accurate doneness, a seared exterior and a juicy centre.
Check sides. If ordering a set meal, check the sides and seasoning: reviews mention cold vegetables, salty mash and average iced tea.

Common Concerns
Doneness issues
Several steak orders came out well-done despite requests for medium or medium-well, leaving the meat chewy or hard.
Tough meat
Some customers found the beef hard, dry or rubbery rather than tender and juicy.

Experiences vary: a returning customer praised earlier ribeye meals but found the last two notably chewy.
Occasional delays
Waits have reached around 20–25 minutes, including one order that appeared not to have started preparation.
Inconsistent seasoning
Reviews mention overly salty beef, mashed potato and other dishes, while some sauces and pasta servings felt light.
Customer-reported prices
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

The Bottom Line
Sizzlin’ Steak sits inside Flayva Food Hall at Al Ghurair Centre Mall in Deira, serving casual, value-focused meals built around steak. The Crying Tiger steak and rib eye are the clearest draws, while sizzling beef, chicken steak, cheesy beef rice and pasta give groups a few different directions to choose from. Portions are often described as generous, and several customers found the prices affordable.
The presentation can be part of the appeal: some meals arrive on sizzling plates, piping hot and warm through the meal. Service is often quick, and staff are frequently described as friendly and accommodating. It works well for a relaxed food-hall dinner rather than a formal restaurant experience.
There is a real consistency caveat. Multiple reviews report tough or chewy beef, including steaks ordered medium or medium-well that arrived well-done. One customer waited 25 minutes, while another found the steak thin and dry with little sauce.
Seasoning also varies, with complaints about salty beef and mashed potato, cold vegetables, and average iced tea. For a first visit, confirm the doneness clearly and check the steak when it arrives. If visiting at opening, allow for stalls still preparing; arriving a little later may make ordering easier.
