Un restaurant grec, sophistiqué, au cœur du quartier financier. Des plats à partager. Aussi bien au déjeuner qu'au dîner.
Gaia est la déesse de la terre et la mère du soleil, des montagnes et de la mer : aux Émirats elle a donc toute sa place. Et c'est à DIFC, que Eugeny Kuzin et Chef Izu ont dessiné un deuxième restaurant après celui de Monte-Carlo. Le concept est simple, une cuisine grecque généreuse, des plats à partager, une exigence sur la fraîcheur des produits. Le résultat est convaincant, on y vient une première fois par curiosité, et on y revient encore par conviction que ce soit à midi ou le soir. Décidément, Gaia a enfanté un bien bel endroit au pays des Bédouins.

We had a booking for the last seating at 14.45. I understand this is not ideal for the kitchen and the team but unfortunately we didn’t have the choice as we had a meeting just before.
The food was excellent, delicious, well presented. PERFECT.
The service was embarrassing.
No explanation on the menu, no up selling , no introduction from the waiter, not a smile.
We were rushed as the team wanted to finish their shift. Fine, I understand. They might be working long hours and might need to rest and get ready for the dinner service.
However a few mistakes happened and could have been avoided. We order a bottle of wine and then waiter came back to us and mentioned the price out loud of the bottle of wine to ensure we were aware. How embarrassing when you invite guests over.
We were confused so we asked the Sommelier why this happened, he then sighed openly on our face. I didn’t know what was going on.
Then we were eating our starters (half way) and the waiter came with clean plates to let us know he wanted to prepare us for our mains and basically clean the table. Once again very confused as we were only half way eating our starters. We felt so embarrassed and said yes sure but I think he understood he did it wrong.
Desserts have been preordered and were delicious.
Such a shame we didn’t enjoy our lunch as the food was exceptional and I really love Gaia.
Maybe we went on a bad day but for the pricing the service must be reviewed. However hostess and welcome, was faultless. Thanks to them
