Shi Restaurant

An Exceptional Dining Experience at Shi Restaurant Our lunch at Shi Restaurant was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we were seated, the service was impeccable – attentive, warm, and professional throughout our meal. The culinary experience began with a selection of starters that set the tone for what was to come. The sesame toasted prawns were a standout, perfectly crispy with a delightful nutty flavor that complemented the tender prawns beautifully. The prawn dumplings were equally impressive, delicate and bursting with fresh flavor in every bite. For our main courses, we indulged in three remarkable dishes. The black pepper lobster was expertly prepared, with the bold, aromatic pepper sauce enhancing rather than overpowering the sweet, succulent lobster meat. The black pepper beef was equally memorable, featuring tender cuts of beef coated in a robust, peppery glaze that delivered just the right amount of heat. The spicy prawns rounded out our selection perfectly, offering a vibrant kick that showcased the kitchen’s mastery of balancing bold flavors. Every dish demonstrated exceptional quality in both ingredients and execution. Combined with the outstanding service, Shi Restaurant delivered a dining experience that exceeded our expectations. We left thoroughly satisfied and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone seeking authentic flavors and genuine hospitality.

Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience with a beautiful setting and stylish outdoor seating. 🍜 The noodles were very delicious, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. 🍹 The Passion Fruit Mojito was refreshing and really enjoyable. 🍣 Unfortunately, the sushi did not meet expectations. The prawn inside the roll was overcooked, which affected both the texture and taste. The atmosphere and service were great, but I hope the sushi quality improves to match the rest of the menu.

Loved the place! My first time here and hospitality is top notch! Our server anish was amazing! So friendly and very fun to talk to. Loved the vibe and the energy the place offers. Also the Dhillon was so kind. Thanks for the complimentary drink 🍹 loved it!

Incredibly delicious food, impeccable presentation, and a truly breathtaking atmosphere — every detail is thoughtfully curated. Each dish feels like a piece of art and tastes just as impressive. The seafood and duck were especially outstanding: perfectly cooked, well-balanced flavors, and beautiful plating. The view is a highlight on its own — city lights, water, and a vibrant evening vibe that makes the whole experience feel special and memorable. The service is attentive yet unobtrusive, exactly what you expect from a high-end restaurant. Good to know: seating on the 2nd floor is available with a minimum spend of €400, and it is absolutely worth it for the view, the ambiance, and the overall experience. A place you’ll want to come back to — highly recommended for a special evening ✨

We are vegan and we are so happy with the food, service by Tapa, and the atmosphere by the ocean overlooking the drone show! All the food we ordered is unique, simple yet high quality and bursts in my mouth. The live music is also great, not overpowering/too loud. The best restaurant I have tried in Dubai so far. Definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone.

Nous avons passé une très belle soirée au Restaurant SHI à Dubaï, un lieu qui réussit à combiner une atmosphère raffinée avec une cuisine asiatique moderne parfaitement maîtrisée. Dès l’arrivée, l ambiance est chaleureuse, des lumières tamisées et un décor élégant crée tout de suite une sensation de confort et de sophistication. Le service est attentionné sans être envahissant, avec une équipe souriante et efficace. Côté assiettes, SHI propose des plats aussi beaux que délicieux. Le carpaccio de poisson cru, baigné dans une sauce parfumée, était d’une grande fraîcheur et parfaitement équilibré. Le poulet croustillant et tendre, présenté de façon originale, s’est révélé gourmand et parfaitement exécuté. Mention spéciale également pour le Taiwanese chicken smocked, généreux et plein de saveurs. Le dessert de fruit, coloré, varié et magnifiquement présenté apporte une note finale légère et rafraîchissante. Chaque plat est travaillé avec soin, avec des textures maîtrisées, des sauces aromatiques et une présentation irréprochable. On sent que rien n’est laissé au hasard. Un excellent restaurant asiatique, idéal pour un dîner en terrasse ou une soirée plus intime. Cuisine savoureuse, service impeccable et ambiance élégante — une adresse à recommander sans hésiter lors d’un séjour à Dubaï.

We celebrated our 7th anniversary at this restaurant, and Aung, our server, was incredibly helpful and cheerful throughout our dining experience. As a token of our appreciation for our anniversary, they even offered us dessert as a complimentary treat. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be returning to this restaurant in the future.

The atmosphere was pleasant and luxurious, and the view was absolutely stunning. However, the food was quite disappointing! The prices were unbelievably high — truly shocking. I expected unique flavors and exceptional taste, but that wasn’t the case at all. Believe it or not, they served ready-made, store-bought sauces! The wonton sauce not testy and wasn’t authentic whatsoever, I think they used Sriracha sauce. The prices of the dishes were simply outrageous. Overall, I’d rate the experience no higher than 6.5 out of 10. The noodles dish was delicious. The dish with the different shapes was deep-fried and fell apart the moment we touched it. In short, considering the prices they charge — it’s definitely not worth it.

I had a great experience at SHI. The sushi was fresh, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. Every bite tasted high quality, and you can tell they use good ingredients. The atmosphere was pleasant and made the dining experience even better. Overall, it was a very good experience, and I would definitely come back again.

We dined here on October 21, 2025, at 7PM. I called a day in advance to make a reservation and mentioned that we would be celebrating our 10th anniversary, specifically requesting a nice table with a good view. On the morning of October 21, the team called to reconfirm the booking, and I again mentioned the occasion. We were given a lovely table facing the sea. The service was quick, and the food overall was good. I have to highlight the Salmon Tataki and the Hazelnut & Choco Profiterole, which were the stars of the night. The cream cheese and orange sauce on the Salmon Tataki were sublime, while the Hazelnut & Choco Profiterole was a heavenly dessert, truly satisfying. Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy the Peking Duck (AED 455) as much as I hoped. Some parts of the meat taste raw, and it wasn’t as tender as expected, though the skin was perfectly crispy and flavorful. I also found the Lamb Chop a bit on the sweet side, which didn’t blend well with the meat in my opinion. The Assorted Dim Sum Platter was beautifully presented, but the flavors were mostly average, except for the Snow Crab, which stood out. It was a bit disappointing that nothing special was done for our anniversary, even though the occasion was mentioned twice during the booking and confirmation. After dessert, I told our server, Thapa, that the dessert was very good but the “Happy 10th Anniversary” message was missing. He kindly apologized and later informed us that the dessert had been made complimentary, which I truly appreciated. Overall, while I was slightly disappointed that the occasion wasn’t acknowledged, we still had an enjoyable evening. Noting that we might come back for their appetizers and desserts.

Last weekend, I had an unforgettable brunch experience at Shi Dynasty, a premier restaurant with stunning views of Dubai Marina. The restaurant offers an extensive menu featuring high-quality sushi, dim sum, Peking duck rolls, and main courses like Chilean seabass and spicy tiger prawns. The seafood options, including sashimi and inventive sushi rolls such as the spicy sake roll and goma dragon roll, were fresh and expertly prepared. The dim sum selection, including prawn har gau, black truffle chicken siu mai, and snow crab dumplings, was steamed to perfection, showcasing authentic flavors. The highlight was the Peking duck rolls—tender duck slices wrapped with hoisin sauce, cucumber, leek, and sweet melon—delivering an authentic Chinese culinary experience. For the main course, the Chilean seabass was cooked beautifully, paired with spicy tiger prawns, wok-fried wild rice, and baby bok choy, offering aromatic richness and a balanced flavor profile. We concluded our meal with a signature dessert platter featuring sorbets, matcha tiramisu, and fresh fruit, served on ice while enjoying the outdoor ambiance overlooking Dubai Marina. The beverage selection included vibrant non-alcoholic options like Passion Citrus, Peach Earl Grey, Bergamot Mint, and classic Mint, which complemented the richness of the dishes perfectly. Overall, Shi Dynasty provides a luxurious dining experience with delicious cuisine, innovative drinks, and breathtaking views. Highly recommended for a memorable brunch in Dubai with excellent service and ambiance.

Das Ambiente ist gemütlich, das Essen hervorragend und der Service super freundlich und sehr zuvorkommend, wir wurden von Anisch bedient, welcher seiner Arbeit wundervoll und sehr aufmerksam nachgeht. Es gibt sogar eine Bilderspeisekarte, was bei Sushi sehr hilfreich ist. Live Musik sehr angenehm und nicht zu laut Restaurant sehr zu empfehlen

Beautiful presentation, but unfortunately the food was extremely disappointing. The dishes looked nice in photos, but the taste and quality simply weren’t there: • Dim Sum: Looked fine, but tasted like defrosted supermarket dim sum. Texture was rubbery and the flavour was honestly unpleasant. • Rice: Pretty plating, but completely dry and lifeless. • “Wagyu”: Presented as a premium dish, but tasted cheap, flat, and nowhere near real wagyu quality. The staff were friendly, and service was polite - but that doesn’t compensate for the food. When we shared our feedback with management, the response was that we had “eaten almost everything.” Yes, we did - because we were hungry, and I didn’t want to embarrass the guests I had invited. Eating food does not mean the food was good. Overall: Nice photos, bad flavours, poor quality. For the pricing and positioning, the experience was far below expectations. Not a place I would return to or recommend.

Anish was our server and he did an awesome job taking care of the four of us. His recommendations for food were great and right what we were looking for. The food that was served was fresh and had great flavor to it. The presentation of everything we got was amazing. The desserts are to die for and the cheesecake is a must.

Omg what a great restaurant. Anish was the most attentive professional waiter I have encountered. His food suggestions were amazing. You must try the fried Seabass as an appetizer and the cheesecake egg was not only delicious but fun to crack open and eat. I cannot recommend this restaurant high enough. You need to experience it for yourself.

Posto stupendo con un’ottima vista, un super servizio e un cibo squisito. Unica cosa che i prezzi sono devastanti! Due bottiglie d’acqua da 750 ml pagate 21 €, 5 piatti di noodles e totale 750 AED, che corrispondono a circa 175 €. Unica grande pecca questa, prezzi molto alti, sconsigliato a famiglie.

We love this restaurant! The food is very good, my favourite is their Udon noodles with seafood and DimSum with Chicken Sheng Jian Bao. We even went back there twice during our one-week-vacation for the dimsum. The personnel are very kind and the view is breathtaking. Make sure to book a table in advance since it’s quite fully booked in the evenings. Recommend to visit!

Прекрасный ресторан азиатской кухни. Хостес Сельма-очень любезная девушка. Заказали роллы, вок с морепродуктами и нежнейшее мороженое. Морепродукты свежие. Цены для такого места адекватные. Шикарный вид набережную и колесо.

Very tasty food. This restaurant has pleasant ambience with sea view. Service was quite good. High recommend.

Amazing Dumplings, Creative Dishes, and Great Service Shi is easily one of the standout Chinese restaurants in Dubai. The dumplings are incredible — super fresh, creative, and full of flavour — and the noodles are just as good, perfectly cooked and clearly made with care. The staff are extremely attentive without being intrusive, and they make the whole experience feel warm and seamless. If you’re looking for high-quality Chinese food with a modern twist, Shi is absolutely worth the visit.
