About

HuQQabaz Souk Al Bahar has earned its reputation as one of Downtown Dubai's premier destinations for authentic shisha, Turkish cuisine, and unbeatable views. Located in the Souk Al Bahar complex on Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard, this stylish restaurant offers front-row seats to the iconic Burj Khalifa and Dubai Fountain, creating a magical backdrop for any occasion. The venue seamlessly blends modern elegance with Middle Eastern charm, welcoming guests from early morning until 2:00 AM daily. The menu showcases international, Turkish, and Middle Eastern flavors, with standout dishes including expertly grilled items, generous meze selections, and authentic Turkish specialties. Each plate is noted for its vibrant flavors and beautiful presentation, making it equally suitable for hearty brunches, special dinners, or casual evenings. However, the true signature here is the shisha—prepared with premium tobaccos and special blends, it's consistently praised as among the best in Dubai for its smooth, aromatic quality and meticulous preparation. Whether seated indoors or on the outdoor terrace, guests enjoy attentive, friendly service from knowledgeable staff who take pride in their craft. The restaurant accepts all major payment methods including contactless options, though visitors should note the higher-end pricing and consider booking ahead during peak times to secure the best views of this iconic Dubai location.

Reviews

“As an avid shisha lover, I don’t say this lightly. I’ve been fortunate to travel across many countries and experience some of the finest shishas out there. This was my first time in the Middle East, and honestly, HuQQabaz at Souk Al Bahar completely blew me away. Over the past few weeks, I’ve enjoyed shisha in Jeddah, Kuwait, and now Dubai—and this place truly stands out. The quality of the shisha is hands down among the best you’ll find in town: perfectly prepared, smooth, flavorful, and consistent from start to finish. You can tell this is not rushed work; it’s a craft they take seriously. But what really elevates the experience is the people. Special shoutout to Aakash, Cool, and Mehdy—these gentlemen made the evening unforgettable with their warm hospitality and expert care. They truly know how to make you feel welcome and ensure your shisha experience is spot on. And then there’s the location. Sitting right in front of the Burj Khalifa, enjoying world-class shisha with impeccable service and an iconic view—it doesn’t get more Dubai than this. Old-school hospitality, modern finesse. If you’re in town and appreciate truly good shisha, do yourself a favor and come here. This is how it’s supposed to be done.”
