EETEN, Dubai Marina
Eeten is located on the ground floor
of Marina Mall, and offers International and American cuisine where the only
thing better than the conversation is the food and coffee.
The
best part is that it’s open from Breakfast until late and has a wide selection
on the menu to choose from. Offerings include breakfast classics like the
all-American and continue with mains like glazed salmon and juicy burgers.
Meanwhile, power bowls, salads and soups make for a perfect quick bite. Food is
best washed down with a house-blended coffee, promised to impress
caffeine-purists.
The interiors are cozy with an
eclectic mix of furniture - a fine blend
of stripped-back counters and monochrome tiled walls with contemporary leather
chairs and super-sleek lights. Effortlessly fusing New York casual with London luxe and
embodying Dubai’s own brand of cool. Trailing plants brighten the grab-and-go
coffee bar, while booths offer cozy nooks to relax. I loved the outdoor seating
option and as far as te weather does permit, it’s amazing to sit back and relax
with the view of the walk and the hustle and bustle of the city.
An American theme runs through the menu, but there are Asian influences too with a tempura starter and wasabi-glazed
salmon.
The avocado hummus dip is thick and creamy, and when we run out of crostini, the staff are only too happy to bring us an extra plate of the crunchy herb-infused mini toasts.

The zucchini fritters are crunchy and a good starter over
conversation.
For mains we ordered Herb crusted tenderloin beef filet medallion
and Oven baked wasabi glazed Salmon.
For the Beef filet, we went for Herb and butter sauce with
fries on the side. Perfection.
For the Salmon, I asked to go with the 4s sauce, but it was a
little overpowering for me. So, I just ate the salmon on it’s own, and it was moreish.
And the kale and spinach soup as a side was flavorsome. The portions are quite huge
and can be easily shared among two in my opinion.
Now comes my favorite part of the evening – desserts. We
ordered the Affogato ice cream and the chocolate chip cookie with macadamia.
OMG, both were out of this world desserts and I’m running out of words to
describe how good both the desserts were. The Affogato ice cream is a soft
serve that tastes extremely good. I would highly recommend this.
I expected the chocolate chip cookie to be hard when I dug into
it, but I was pleasantly surprised as to how effortlessly by spoon slipped into
the warm cookie dough. Combined with ice cream and the crunch of macadamia it
was pure bliss. Love, love, loved it.
I would highly recommend both the desserts!
The service is good. Min zao was extremely helpful, and both
he and Sandeep (the restaurant manager) came to notify us of the fire alarm and
explained why our mains would take longer. I felt it was a nice touch and it didn’t
keep us guessing as to what was happening.
I loved the ambience, service
and most importantly the food.
