The menu spans breakfast platters, mezze, and grills, making it the pick when a group cannot agree on a cuisine. It is the only spot here with a show kitchen where chefs work in front of you. The space also hosts Tawl games in the afternoons, a detail the other nine restaurants do not offer. It suits families and large groups who want a sit-down meal rather than a quick stop. The price range of AED 90 to 220 per person depends on what you order. Choose this over Eataly or New Shanghai if you want a lively, all-day option instead of a single-cuisine focus.

She trained as a pastry chef at Dubai’s International Centre for Culinary Arts. The menu draws from Emirati cuisine, and the Dubai Hills branch is one of three locations in the city.
This place suits people who want a relaxed café meal rather than a full restaurant experience. It works well for mornings, casual lunches, or catching up with friends.

BEST OF takeChoosing the right spot
Pick Al Beiruti when your group cannot agree on a cuisine. It covers breakfast, lunch and dinner with a lively but not formal atmosphere. Choose Eataly if you want Italian food and want to browse groceries. Go to New Shanghai for a proper sit-down Chinese meal with shared dumplings and noodles. For a lighter option, try Eat Greek or Miyabi Sushi. KASIBEYAZ suits bigger groups who want generous Turkish grills and mezze.
How We Chose These Dubai Hills Mall Restaurants
We ranked restaurants based on food quality, mall usefulness, family friendliness, variety, seating comfort, service practicality, cuisine mix, value for the type of meal and whether each place solves a clear reader need. Best Of ratings are editorial scores based on practical reader value, not customer-review averages.
What kind of Dubai Hills Mall meal do you need?
Choose the dining mood first, then jump straight to the best match. Dubai Hills Mall has everything from quick mall meals to proper sit-down restaurants, so the right pick depends on your group.
- Family meal. Choose Al Beiruti for Lebanese food, breakfast platters, grills and flexible group dining.
- Italian craving. Choose Eataly for pasta, pizza, desserts, coffee and Italian market-style dining.
- Sharing dishes. Choose New Shanghai for dumplings, noodles, fried rice and Chinese comfort food.
- Breakfast or café. Choose Mitts & Trays for breakfast, coffee, cakes and a calmer café-style stop.
Decision Helper
- Choose Al Beiruti if you want the safest all-round restaurant for families and groups.
- Choose Eataly if pasta, pizza, coffee and Italian desserts sound right.
- Choose New Shanghai if you want dumplings, noodles and sharing plates.
- Choose Mitts & Trays if it is breakfast, coffee or a relaxed café meal.

Real talk before you goHonest Caveats
Dubai Hills Mall has a lot of good dining options, but the best choice depends on whether you want a quick bite, a proper family dinner, a café stop or something close to your parking gate.
- Mall timing matters. Weekend lunch and dinner can feel busier, especially near cinema and restaurant parking areas.
- Floor location helps. Choose based on where you are shopping, parking or going next inside the mall.
- Groups need flexibility. Broad menus like Lebanese, Turkish and Italian are usually easiest when everyone wants something different.
Planning Notes
For the best meal at Dubai Hills Mall, choose based on your plan: cinema night, family dinner, shopping break, breakfast, coffee meeting, quick lunch or proper sit-down dinner. If you are visiting on a weekend, check parking, restaurant location and wait times before deciding.
