What to Avoid (10)

Food 7

  1. Berry croissant Net −1
    “The berry croissant is too sweet.”
  2. Chicken kaarage Net −1
    “We ordered the beef burger, gulf coast and chicken kaarage. The beef burger was nice, the brioche bun was great. Gulf coast was also nice, the sauce was yum and fish was okay. The chicken karage though felt like a mid attempt at butter chicken and naan.”
  3. Expresso Net −1
    “The coffee was a major disappointment .. also in the cup that was offered.. a expresso was offered in a dip cup.. very weird”
  4. Fries Net −1
    “We ordered a side of fries that were a little over-salted and would like to see an improvement on them. Maybe homemade chips? They didn’t match the high standards of the rest of the dishes.”
  5. Meatballs Net −1
    “The meatballs were slightly dense but complemented by the exquisite tastes of the kefir mousse and pepper sauce.”
  6. Seasonal seared catfish Net −1
    “Main dish, seasonal seared catfish was disappointing. Skin under-seared and slimy, flesh side of the fish over seared and dry. Served with sautéed baby gem in soy sauce, but then covered with tarragon cream sauce which appeared to have slightly split, for me the two flavour profiles just did not work together.”
  7. Shrimp pasta Net −1
    “Really really love the concept and all our starters were fantastic, but the mains were super disappointing (for the shrimp pasta the waiter advised us to eat as quickly as possible, as the flavor changes "a lot" after it cools... Unfortunately it wasn't good hot either 🤷🏻‍♀️).”

Drinks 3

  1. Black tea Net −1
    “then got black tea i didn’t like so much it was light.”
  2. Coffee latte Net −1
    “Lastly, the coffee latte is not good, the milk froth is not smooth, lots of bubbles on the surface and the coffee art is worse than nothing.”
  3. Iced latte Net −1
    “We ordered Iced Latte, which is nothing more than a little bit of milk and a shot of coffee, but it was a tiny amount for AED 27!!! Come on guys, show us some generosity 😅😅”

The Bottom Line

Teible is a restaurant at Jameel Arts Centre in Al Jaddaf, where the menu follows seasonal, local-ingredient cooking and a sustainability-focused concept. It works well for breakfast after visiting the galleries, a relaxed creek-side lunch, or a quietly paced dinner. Reviewers repeatedly mention the pumpkin ravioli, eggplant dish, Garum burger and glazed donut, so those are useful starting points when available.

The setting is a major part of the appeal: minimalist, stylish and calm, with views towards the creek. The food can be genuinely inventive, from locally sourced produce and fermented elements to wild catfish paired with brown butter ice cream, parsnip crisps, umami caramel and pickled pineapple. The restaurant has also been praised for its Michelin Green Star and Bib Gourmand recognition.

That creativity is not completely consistent. Some diners found dishes ordinary, overly salty or poorly cooked, while coffee feedback ranges from excellent to average; one latte had bubbly foam, and one mocha arrived room temperature despite an extra-hot request. A pastry was also reported stale.

Prices are described as reasonable by some guests, though an iced latte was reported at AED 27 and a zucchini starter at AED 85. The Lazy Set Menu was reported at 149aed per person with drinks.
