The seafood salad was laden with jumbo prawns, squid, baby octopus, mussels (which I don't normally rate but these were meaty and succulent). The spinach in oyster sauce was done to perfection.

What to Avoid (3)

Food 3

Fried squid garlic Net −1

“Foods were average. We had mango sticky rice, pad Thai, seafood Tom yam, fried squid garlic and grilled sea bass. The best among them were grilled sea bass and Tom yam (the soup could be excellent with lesser sweet). The squid was very chewy and hard, not the best option for us.”
Grilled garlic prawn dish Net −1

“The Pad Thai, in particular, was thoughtfully composed and well balanced in flavour. That said, the prawns—both in the Pad Thai and in the grilled garlic prawn dish—were taken a touch too far, losing the tenderness one would hope for in seafood of this calibre.”
Rad na chicken Net −1

“I’ve ordered several times before, but this time I had the Rad Na chicken. The gravy was thinner than usual, almost like soup, and I only received five pieces of chicken for 52 dirhams.”

The Bottom Line

Thai Sea - Seafood Grill is a seafood-focused Thai restaurant in Jumeirah Lake Towers. The menu gives you plenty to explore, but the clearest starting points from the reviews are Tom Yum, steamed sea bass, papaya salad and the Thai Sea in Young Coconut, a seafood dish with shrimp, squid and mussels in coconut milk and red curry sauce. The strongest pattern is fresh seafood with bold Thai seasoning.

Steamed sea bass in soy sauce, lemon-chilli sauce or salt crust gets repeated praise, while reviewers also rate the red curry, Pad Thai, pineapple rice and mango sticky rice. Spice levels can be adjusted, so ask before the kitchen starts if you prefer milder food. The room is clean, bright and fairly simple rather than fancy, with Thai songs adding atmosphere.

Service is often described as warm and fast, but it is not perfectly consistent: some diners experienced a 40-minute wait, missed dishes or a long wait to pay. Grill availability has also varied. Prices split opinion.

Some reviewers call the portions good value, while another found the menu expensive for Jumeirah Lake Towers. Dining in appears the safer choice than delivery, and it is worth confirming availability and any discount-app terms before ordering.
