What to Avoid (5)

Food 5

  1. Aloo tikki chaat Net −1
    “3) Aloo Tikki Chaat - The Tikki was served cold”
  2. Butter chicken katsun Net −1
    “Butter Chicken Katsun (chicken schnitzel with butter sauce ) - breaded chicken turned out to be very dry. Each element of the dish sounds separately and is not played together.”

  4. Goan fish curry Net −1
    “2) Goan Fish Curry - Did not taste as it should, had a decent coconut flavor to it but was not at all spicy which is what it should taste like but I am giving a benefit of doubt as I am not a chef - but the most shocking thing was the gravy/curry was not even warm and when we were given a explanation they said the fish is served cold but the gravy was hot, we tested the gravy and it was not hot, secondly we had to wait for the rice which kind of gave unpleasant experience.”
  5. Palak paneer Net −1
    “But palak paneer was terrible.”

The Bottom Line

Tamasha Asian Fusion Zabeel is a modern Indian-Japanese fusion restaurant in Bur Dubai, with enough range for a casual meal, a family dinner or a stylish evening out. The reviews give the clearest support to the Dynamite Prawns, Beef Teriyaki, lamb chops and maki platter, while the Tamasha Mixed Grill for Two brings chicken tikka, lamb chops, wagyu beef boti and grilled king prawns together for sharing. Drinks are a major part of the experience.

The creative mocktails and fresh juices get consistent praise, with the Fresh Bellini and Purple Rain called out by name. The interior has green décor, warm dim lighting and romantic nooks, and reviewers mention both indoor and outdoor seating, valet parking and the West Tower parking lot. Breakfast is another option, with eggs and sourdough bread receiving positive feedback.

The main caution is inconsistency. Some diners found dishes fresh, flavourful and generous, but others reported frozen or reheated food, cold Aloo Tikki Chaat, an un-warm Goan Fish Curry and a dry Butter Chicken Katsun. One review also felt the pricing ran high, citing around Dhs340 for Indian food for two.

Check dish temperature when ordering, and consider sharing portions.
