Asador de Aranda

It was our first time here, and we decided to try something new for our 2nd anniversary. We ordered the brunch menu, and it was absolutely fantastic! The food was delicious and perfectly portioned for two—just the right amount without the overwhelming feel of a buffet. Plus, it’s great that you can take away any leftovers. The ambience is lovely—romantic and peaceful—and the service was exceptional. Special thanks to George for taking the time to explain everything and making us feel so comfortable. We’ll definitely be recommending this place to our friends!

I had high expectations for this Spanish restaurant, but unfortunately, it fell short in almost every aspect. The food was extremely basic, lacking any real Spanish flavor. The main courses were tasteless and uninspiring, making it a very underwhelming dining experience. Service was another letdown. The host was not helpful at all, and despite being in a busy area during lunchtime, valet parking was unavailable due to what seemed like an excuse rather than a real reason. The restaurant itself also needs serious maintenance. The floors were visibly damaged, giving the place a neglected feel. As for the wine selection, it was disappointing—an overly sweet white Argentine wine, a Spanish Castilla red that tasted and smelled off, and the only decent option (Frontera from Chile) was conveniently “out of stock.” Overall, this is definitely not a place I would return to. With so many great dining options available, this one just doesn’t make the cut.

Probably the BEST Spanish restaurant that is in Dubai right now after Jaleo closing. Besto croquetas for SURE. Competitive prices. Not overprice. Really good quality. Real Spanish food . I’m really impressed (for good). It’s a must try! Thanks for the food!
