Avis NINIVE

A good place to chill and enjoy moroccan food in dubai

The ambience of the Montblanc x Ninive collaboration was truly amazing.
The views:
excellent, you’ll feel warm, cosy, and comfortable vibes with tasteful lighting and eye candy views of the Museum of the Future.
The Food:
Delicious, can’t go wrong with any option, the kitchen staff knows what they’re doing.
The service: Hands down this was the best part. The staff is warm, helpful, courteous, and genuinely happy to welcome you which is a rare thing many people forget to consider. We were looked after by YASSER who was amazing. He was knowledgeable, authentic and it was a pleasure to interact with him. Now I see why everyone loved Moroccans.

Great evening, thank you.

A big thank you to Yasser who made my experience here more than enjoyable. His knowledge of the menu made us have the best drinks and meals and besides that he’s also very friendly. Great view of the Museum of the Future as well. Highly recommend to come here for dinner.

We keken erg naar dit restaurant uit. Er was een wachtlijst. Maar die hoge verwachting kwam niet geheel uit. De bediening is aardig maar niet erg behulpzaam. Op het moment dat wij er waren kreeg het personeel een lange uitbrander van de chef. Niet erg sfeerverhogend. Het is lastig eten aan die lage tafels. Het eten was lekker. Maar het miste alle verfijning. Geen michelinster waardig. Voor Marokkaans eten even verder zoeken.

Perfect food, vibe and service.
The beef fatayer and the manti were fantastic.

The only bad thing was the reservation. 1- they required to enter my credit card by the morning, and called to confirm we’re coming.
All this and the restaurant wasnt busy at all

분위기 최고였습니다.
음식도 완전 내스타일

The worse reception and the stuff are not professional at all… I don’t recommend this place it’s over rated for nothing … there are so many other good places where you can go

Our experience was terrible. We went there for Suhour as group of 10, they made us wait 15 minutes or more for our table to be ready. The music was so loud that we could not hear each other despite telling them to lower the music and asking for the manager but nothing was done by the manger. It went on deaf ears. After and hour an a half or so needed up speaking to DJ who was so kind enough to lower the music at a more reasonable volume. The service was ok but not the best. Over all the experience and the ambiance was terrible I would not recommend for a Suhoour if you are more than 4/5 people.

Super amazing

Had a booking at Ninive 25H hotel @ 11pm , it’s 11:45 pm & we haven’t been seated yet. We were told to sit and wait at the pool bar!! We kept following up and were told to wait for 10min more for like 3 times! We were told they had an issue in the kitchen and food was delayed so people with previous booking had to be shifted, how is that our problem, why didn’t they call is to inform is ? We left and they couldn’t care any less.. poor management, as poor as Emirates Towers branch.

Bad experience ever ! I booked Iftar on montblanc majlis by NINIVE before 2 weeks at 6:30 ! Some one call me to confirm and I confirm ! I reached the restaurant exactly at 6:47 . The one on the reception said to me , we try to call ! No one answer!! Then she said you table is order taken!! I said sorry but it not pass 20 minutes! And no one call me ! First of all at least we are fasting give us a cup of water and dates! Then one guy come told us it ok to site near the pool ! Sorry it’s your mistake if you have given someone our tables it’s not our mistake!! They he arrange table for us while we are standing! With only 2 chairs! And we are 4 ! One the chairs with a bad condition ! After a while they bring for us pool chairs!!!! Then they are starting serving us bring 3 sambosa ! And we are 4 we ask to bring the one piece!! Bad experience ever ! At least no one said only sorry or we are apologies!

One of the best Arabic restaurants I’ve visited in the last months. Delicious everything, starting from bread, finishing with mains. Out of 5 positions everything was amazing and quite unique. The ambiance is dark and romantic. Service is good. Must visit.

Came here with friends a month ago, food was overall good, but not the best I’ve had.

Staff was not bad; they didn’t do anything exceptional or out of their way.

Atmosphere was alright; like any other place you go to.

Not sure I’ll visit them again, but now I can say I’ve been.

I've been to Ninive for their Iftar. Food was very average and not worth the price they were charging. It was very average, and I think the Iftar package should be way less. We were calling the given number on the website for 2 days, and nobody answered. Table slots on the website if you want to book online are showing that it's fully booked, but it really wasn't. The reservation team called me back only after 3 days of not picking up the phone... should work on that.

On the other hand, place by itself it's very nice and well put together, vibe is super nice and the music was matching so 5 star for that.
I think it would be better for drinks over the weekend for sure. We really enjoyed the DJ's set.

We made a reservation for sohoor at 11 pm through a phone call.
Upon our arrival, the waiter informed us that the kitchen would close by 11:45 pm.
Typically, when booking at a restaurant, they inform you in advance if the kitchen will close early, but in this case, they did not.
We politely asked the waiter if he could at least hold the main course for us, to which he agreed.
Following that, we inquired about any minimum spend requirement since we were not informed about it during our booking over the phone or through email.
The waiter confirmed that there is indeed a minimum spend of AED 250 per person.
To meet this requirement, we decided to increase our order.
However, when the food arrived, the starters, hot appetizers, and main courses were all brought out together.
Perplexed, I asked the waiter why they were served simultaneously, and he claimed to have held them for 20 minutes.
This explanation didn't make much sense to me.
At around 12:15 am, other customers arrived and placed their orders, receiving their food by 12:45 am.
Curious, I approached another waiter and inquired about the kitchen's closing time. He informed me that it closes at 12:45 am.
Frustrated, I sought out the supervisor and explained the entire situation. He assured me that there was no minimum spend requirement and that the kitchen does close at 12:45 am.
However, the manager later intervened and contradicted this, stating that there is indeed a minimum spend. As a gesture of goodwill, he offered a discount on our bill due to the inconveniences we experienced.
When the bill arrived, only the fruit platter was deducted from the total amount.
We paid the bill and left. The following day, we spoke to a friend who had also dined at the same place on the same day, and she confirmed that they were not informed about any minimum spend requirement.

Amazing experience in this restaurant the vibes are cozy and the staff are very welcoming, the food is great also! Will visit again for sure! ????

Really liked the place and hospitality. Downtown nightlife . Must visit place

الاطلاله رائعه والخدمة ممتازه

Have some shame as an establishment. What gives you the right to make a mockery of Islam? I’ll let you tell me what the issue is with this picture because surely your skulls can’t be that numb?

Incompetent staff, not well informed, messed up reservation

Food was ok, service ok, atmosphere nice.
My friends and I have been overcharged “accidentally” by them with more than 1000 aed and 3 months later they still didn’t give us a refund!

I am sure they will ask us to send an email under this review and pretend to adress the issue. Extremely disappointed on how they handled the matter and how long they let it go on for.

Amazing food and vibes

مكان جميل واجواء اجمل وخدمه ممتازه

Used to be one of my best restaurants to go to , not anymore if you value your time don't go apparently booking a table at 8.30 and wait for 45 mins is normal !! Staff being rude instead of sincerely apologising. Disaster

مكاني المفضل بدبي ????
شكرا لكل العاملين بالمكان ع الرقي والخدمه السريعه
