Excessive bread in the Tawook Sandwich (1 layer of arabic bread in between 2 layers of saj bread). And the side bread (one pc) came like a stone. Tawook platter and chicken platter tasted good.

My fav Shisha place .. lovely and beautiful decor, huge place to sit and separate parking.. ordered their orange carrot juice and it was for 32 dhms which was expensive but freshly squeezed.. nachos platter was good and it was good for sharing with friends.. food was fresh and I still need to try their more food items . They have many shisha options., talk to the person and they are always happy to guide you.

Very Bad Experience ! <br/>I Used to be a Regular Customer to this Cafe , Then I Started to be Annoyed from this Attitude Since every time I reserve a table and I arrive to the Cafe I find that they give it to Someone Else , I got shocked and when I ask why ? , they don’t give any answer and try to give me other table by doing the Rule ( Take it or leave it ) and it’s also happening with a lot of other people I know , The Employees and Managers there are reserving tables depending on their personal contacts and their mood ! <br/>The Service for the Shisha is very poor and slow . The Place is always hot coz the Ac’s most of the time Is not working ! <br/>The Place is Nice and the Food is fine but the Bad Service of the Employees and Managers there plus being moody and un professional makes the place All in All not Recommended at All !

Xenia is a great spot to sit relax and have a good breakfast and shisha they do a deal - which is only 65 aed and is well worth the money . The food is great quality and presented well. The shisha guy keeps you topped up. I think they could advertise better as people I don’t think are aware of this lovely restaurant.

Ordered a Chicken wrap - literally served a wrap with no side, a shawarma joint serves more sides with pickles etc. But this was just a basic wrap tasteless wrap served on a big wooden platter. Not only do shawarmas cost less, but they taste better. Not really worth the money you're paying for. <br/><br/>Waiter also told me that their fresh watermelon juice has no added sugar in it, but the juice came out really sweet and I could literally taste the sugar granules as I drank - so maybe educating your waiters would be a good improvement.<br/><br/>Would really have to be the only place open for me to revisit.

First reaction;<br/><br/>Wowwww!! Was mine first reaction after seeing the place. Xenia is contemporary Arabic and Middle Eastern Restaurant. I love the set up of this place, it’s so relaxing. The interior is also very beautiful and relaxing. The way they use Lights is super awesome.<br/><br/>What we ordered;<br/>We had shisha which was made to expectation, the shisha guy changed the charcoal when needed and kept checking if we were ok with it or not. The mix grill was one of the best I’ve ever eaten in Dubai, Grill chicken platter served with potato and fresh seasonal veggies and it’s up to mark. Their bread is so delicious, Outdoor dining is also available. <br/><br/>Cessation;<br/><br/>The ambience, food preparation and staff are amazing. Especially Ms. Yola and Ms. Jennifer took very good care of us and provided excellent customer service. I would definitely recommend<br/><br/>#food #foodofinstagram #foodie #toptags #instafood #yummy #sharefood #instaeat #foodstagram #heresmyfood #foodiegram #foodlovers #amazingfood

++++++WHAT WE ORDERED++++++<br/><br/>WAFFLES: Kunafa Waffle with Berries<br/><br/>STARTERS : Fig Salad, Smoke Salmon Poached Egg, Xenia Kunafa Shrimps, Chicken Roll<br/><br/>SANDWICH: Steak Sandwich<br/><br/>MAIN COURSE: Grilled Beef Fillet<br/><br/>DESSERT: Fully Loaded Baked Cookie<br/><br/>DRINKS: Four Seasons Mocktails and Pina Colada<br/>++++++++++++++++++++++++<br/>.<br/>One word to express my admiration for this restaurant is... Its : AMAZING!💗✨✨ Their place has a beautiful and colorful interior adorned with antiquities and cool designs. Their lighting fixtures were just jaw-dropping - Unique and creative. Their staff was also a plus point to my visit at Xenia Cafe Lounge at the Springs Souk. They were very informative, accomodating, and hospitable. 🥇<br/>.<br/>For their food,🎉 it was stellar and it never disappoints us. I love how innovative their starter dishes were. The Kunafa Shrimps and Kunafa Waffles were mesmerizing to the eyes and mouth. I love their Chicken Roll.😋😋😋 It is a thick roll of sumptous chicken meat with some cheese and stuffing in it. Their Poached eggs were something new to me. It is an acquired taste and some might find this delicious. But I find it Interesting in a good way.<br/>.<br/>💪👌The Fig salad was also the star of the show. Fresh and delicious. I love the nuts and the sour notes of the salad. 😍Their Sandwich was also delicious. It was juicy and savory; just a minor comment, I prefer sandwiches which has a slightly salty sweet kick on it.<br/>.<br/>🔥Heading unto the Main Course was the Grilled Beef Fillet. So far, this is the best beef fillet I have tasted. Sumptous meat and the gravy was amazing. The rice side made it more special for me.<br/>.<br/>👍👍Their desserts and drinks were also topnotch. The classic Four Seasons and Pina Colada where excellent and beautiful . Not too sweet. Fresh and all natural. Their Fully Loaded Baked Cookie was also a beautifully crafted dessert by Xenia Cafe Lounge<br/>.<br/>Good job! Xenia Cafe Lounge and the team.. More powers 💕❤️😘<br/><br/>

Xeniadxb has recently launched a new branch at The Springs Souk. With quirky interiors & a massive indoor & outdoor seating arena, you’re bound to enjoy this place with family & friends alike. There’s also some quote corner & can be an ideal working space if needed. FYI, the non smoking area’s entrance is inside the mall & the outdoor seating, shisha bar is outside access. <br/><br/>Now let’s get down to our favorite part of reviews, food !!! As the name indicates, it’s Arabic cuisine, the best part is this place opens for #breakfast every morning at 08:00 am serves a lavish menu full 11:00 am & then continues to lunch and dinner the place closes at 01:00 am. So it could be your go to place no matter what the time. <br/><br/>We had :- <br/><br/>•Mixed Berries Salad<br/>• Shrimp Kunafa <br/>• Wine Leaves Sushi <br/>• Lahem Dajen<br/>• Hummus with meat & Pine Nuts <br/>• Mix Grill <br/>• Lamb Ouzi <br/>• Skillet Cookie <br/>• Turkish Coffee <br/><br/>This place serves hot breads & you all know how that’s just extra points from my end. Portions are all sharing which is a great thing & place is good value for money. <br/><br/>You’d surely wanna order the Shrimp Kunafa & the Wine Leaf Sushi, so succulent and packed with flavor. <br/>And the mix grill also, the quality of meat used speaks for itself & we couldn’t get enough of the Lamb Ouzi, the roasted almonds & tiny bits of lamb in aromatic rice absolutely delightful !!! <br/><br/>The venue is defiantly recommended, myself would like to return for the breakfast & enjoy the outdoor seating during the present weather.<br/><br/>The place offers shisha, we however don’t do, hence can’t review. <br/>Also the menu offers, a selection of pancakes, waffles & milkshakes, making it child friendly too.<br/><br/>•<br/>•<br/>🍴 #food #foodofinstagram #foodie #toptags #instafood #yummy #sharefood #instaeat #foodstagram #heresmyfood #foodiegram #foodlovers #amazingfood

This is the best eatery at The Springs Souq. It’s got everything - from awesome starters, to filling main courses, mouth smacking dessert and beverages and sheesha for that perfect evening. It gets more exciting, it’s not just got outdoor Sheesha but an almost smoke free indoor Sheesha smoking area which can house a lot of people - everyone enjoying their space. I can talk about the food till kingdom come - but the top favorites for me are the Kunafa Prawns, followed by the Kebab Wrap. You can close your eyes and put your finger on any dish, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised!

A warm welcome from this new branch of Xenia! Must admit went to the ibn Battuta branch a few years ago when it opened and was disappointed. This branch however has great food, good shisha including the fancy starbuzz carbine pipes or normal on request. The food was plentiful and well presented. The business lunch deal included a main course and shisha for 75aed which is a good daytime offer.<br/><br/>The interiors are bright and cosy. Will definitely be returning with friends and the future shisha club gatherings.
