What to Avoid (18)

Food 18

  1. 16 Broast chicken bucket Net −1
    “I ordered the 16 broast chicken bucket(take out) when I opened it at home, the chicken crust was soggy and chewy, the meat had grey spices that looked un appealingand sad and the taste was less than what we expected, also the quantity of potatoes was so tiny (2 small paper bags) and the meal was for 4, so it should have had 4 bags, but i guess they think the amount is more than enough and you should cut your carbs!!”

    “I had ordered a broasted meal today in the afternoon, I picked up my food in less than 3 minutes, since everything was precooked a ready. While I was happy to get my food quickly, I wasn't happy with the quality of the meal. The chicken was only 50% cooked. Some parts were still raw. This explains why everything is served very quickly.

The Bottom Line

Taza Battuta Restaurant is a chicken-focused fast-food outlet in Jebel Ali Village where you can order Arabic-style favourites including kabsa, mandi, grilled chicken, broasted chicken, Tikka Combo and the Maharaja Meal. The Tikka Combo and Maharaja Meal receive some of the clearest praise, with one customer calling the portions huge and highlighting the fresh bread. The experience is not reliably consistent.

Some diners describe hot, fresh meals, soft bread and quick service; others report dry or tough chicken, bland or overcooked rice, stale kebab and small portions. The most serious complaints concern chicken that was reportedly raw or uncooked, including a broasted meal with raw sections and nuggets ordered for children. Service can also swing sharply.

One regular described a fast, welcoming team, while other reviews mention rude interactions and waits of around 30 minutes for order preparation. Check your chicken and takeaway sides before eating, and confirm spice levels rather than relying on the description at the counter. Prices have been viewed as reasonable by some customers, but others felt the portion size did not match the cost.
