Les restaurants les moins chers de Dubai

You’ll struggle to find a dish priced at more than Dhs20 in this South Indian eatery, which makes it a decent place to kick off a budget list. It’s not fancy, but the food is light and tasty. Winner in the Best Budget category at the 2012 Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards, this is certainly one for your shortlist. Try the biryani at Dhs15 or a mixed veg curry for Dhs14.50.

Dubai isn’t overpopulated with Indonesian restaurants, but thankfully there are two branches of this decent value restaurant. It looks pretty basic inside, but don’t be put off. Whether you’re in the Karama or JLT restaurant there’s an authentic menu, which although not long, has some flavoursome soups and traditional dishes including nasi goreng (Dhs32), satay (Dhs32) and Indonesian salad gado gado (Dhs27).

We all know there’s no shortage of choice if you’re after Lebanese fare in Dubai, but with a reputation for tasty, home-style cooking in its native Lebanon, this brasserie is a winner. Open until 4am (in case those late-night hummus cravings get the better of you), you can easily feast on a selection of mezze for less than Dhs100 for two. We recommend the grilled cheese rolls (Dhs32 for four) for oozy, cheesy happiness.
