Why Travelers Love Askim Restaurant
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
We absolutely love this place! The food is always exceptional — fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and elegant, with great music that makes every visit feel special. The whole team is friendly and attentive, but Mwafak truly stands out. He provides outstanding service, always paying attention to every little detail. His approach is so professional, kind, and discreet — he manages to create a truly memorable dining experience every single time. ⭐️ We’re always happy to come back and can’t recommend this restaurant enough! A beautiful restaurant to sit outside. Very cozy atmosphere. It is directly on the street so you will hear traffic. Everything we ordered was delicious. A great lemon ice tea. From where I sat, I could even see Burj Khalifa. Great Shisha service. I had one of the best dining experiences at Askim Restaurant & Cafe 😋🥰 The food was absolutely delicious, especially the grilled dishes perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The service was exceptional, and the staff were very polite and welcoming. A special thanks to Joseph for his kindness and outstanding service. Truly a place worth visiting again and again ❤️
