Food: Shayan

Shayan one of the most prestigious Iranian resturants that I have visited and one of my top 5 best Iranian resturant. The quality of the food, the atmosphere and the service... There is nothing wrong about the spetacular resturant..

 

 

Shayan is located within the newly opened hotel  Rayhan by Rotana just beside Al Ghurair center.. its in the 3rd floor just after the reciption

Appetizer

 For our appetizer we didn't have to order anything as the restaurant offer complementary vegetables, feta cheese and fresh walnuts... in addition to a fresh out of the oven bread that is served to you very hot.. however, to enjoy our main course we ordered a side green salad and a yogurt dish mixed cucumber... usually no one will give you a review on those two dishes as you expect them to have the usual taste.. BUT NO... the green salad had a very very weird taste.. is it a good taste.. well its beyond good.. its magical... Until today I have no idea what is the dressing used for it.. what made the salad more exceptional is that the vegetables were cut into really small pieces.. that's said.. you should have figured out by now that the yogurt didn't not taste like any other yogurt mixed with cucumber.. even the yogurt was mixed some spices that I couldn't figure out what !!! ... the taste was phenomenal

 

Main Course

 

do I even have to review the main course.. I dont think so .. I think all you need to know is the name.. My friend and I ordered the Chilaw Kabab.. Rice with meat...  I know you went up and looked at the picture... yah you think the portion is small... well you are probably right... but as I said its one of the most fancy Iranian restaurants.. and fancy means small portions but believe me when I say this .. Its worth it... and by the end of the meal you will feel FULL... ok ok ok .. you want a review read this word slowly... the food was Spectacular

 

 

Total Bill  was approximatly 300AED EXQUISITE PRICE ... nothing more to say.. grab a friend and head to Shayan

Appetizer & Main Course

 

 

we ordered the appetizers and main course all at once.. our order was asparagus with wafu sauce and sesame, Brokely fried, Tumpura, 3 kinds of sushi 5 cuts each, rice with vegetables.. there is nothing that i can say about the food except three words Delicious, Expensive, Not enough... yes the quality of the food is amazing but the quantity of the food is just too little and too expensive.. we were 6 girls in the restaurant and we ordered just a little amount of food.. and when we saw the food on our table we were kind of shocked.. there was exactly 9 tiny chopped asparagus in front of us.. we started laughing on the view that dish costed us about 50 dirhams.. yes it tasted heavenly but its not out of gold!!... the sushi was spectacular the taste will blow your mind.. but guess what its not something unique.. take this from a person who eats a lot and have eaten in every place available.. you can get the same quality of food for 4 times less at bentoya's.. especially the sushi's.. the other dishes tasted good.. but the taste and the quality it all vanished when i was the bill.. it is truly an overrated restaurant..

 

one more thing i liked about the restaurants is its very comfy and quiet atmosphere.. and the place is very fancy and suits business meetings or dinner dates.. but still I'm against very expensive food... !!!

 

 

 

 

Total Amount was 985AED ... Very very expensive !!!
