Ariana’s Persian Kitchen

3.5 / 5
Ariana Bundy
Price per Person AED 850

This was my second visit to Ariana, the elegant and stylish Iranian restaurant by Chef Ariana Bundy. Known for her TV show and a cookbook, Chef Ariana, who spent time in Los Angeles, has created her first restaurant here, offering a modern and refined interpretation of Iranian cuisine. During my first visit, I was particularly liked the starters, especially the Whipped Lighwan, Cheymeh Bdin, and Chormeh Sabzi. This time, the highlights were the Wagyu kebab and the Duck Tadiq with pomegranate sauce. The ingredients are high-quality and predominantly organic, which makes you feel light even after a heavy meal. Service has also much improved compared to my initial experience.
