Our Story

A taste of Lebanon
on the water's edge

Anbar opened on the Dubai Water Canal in 2018 with a simple idea: honest, generous Lebanese cooking in a room that feels like a celebration. The name means amber, and the whole place glows like it, brass light, warm wood, deep teal velvet and a wall of roses by the door.

From cold and hot mezze to charcoal grills and a seafood counter that runs to whole lobster, the kitchen sends out one of the largest Lebanese menus in Business Bay. Come for a long lunch, stay for shisha as the Burj Khalifa lights up across the canal.

A place we return to again and again. Excellent food, friendly staff and a lovely view over the canal. It is always full, which says everything.

Had Iftar here with my partner and the food, the location, the service and the shisha were all spot on. Nothing to fault and we cannot wait to come back.

Generous portions and genuinely good Lebanese cooking. Reasonable for Business Bay and the terrace at night is hard to beat.

Sample layout. On the published site these stream live from the Google Business Profile, so the rating and latest reviews stay current.
