BESH Turkish Kitchen Dubai – The Honest Guide to Sheraton’s Star Restaurant

If you’ve been searching for proper Turkish food in Dubai, you’ve probably already heard of BESH. And if you haven’t – well, that’s about to change. Tucked into Level 5 of the Sheraton Mall of the Emirates, BESH Turkish Kitchen has been quietly doing things right since 2019: real pide from a traditional domed oven, mangal-grilled meats that actually taste like they were cooked with care, and a set of deals that make it genuinely good value for a hotel restaurant in Dubai.

Here’s everything you need to know before you go.

What is BESH Turkish Kitchen?

BESH is the Turkish restaurant at the Sheraton Mall of the Emirates in Al Barsha. It’s been open since 2019 and operates out of a striking space with tile and ceramic interiors that pull from Istanbul’s old city aesthetic. The centrepiece is the traditional domed oven – visible from the dining room – where the pide and lahmacun get made. The kitchen is open, the energy is relaxed, and it’s the kind of spot that works equally well for a business lunch or a long Friday dinner with friends.

The food skews authentic rather than fancy: meze, charcoal-grilled meats, fresh bread, and Turkish desserts done properly. No fusion experiments, no Instagrammable foam. Just good Turkish cooking.

BESH Turkish Kitchen Menus and Prices

This is where it gets interesting. BESH runs several offers simultaneously, and knowing which one to book changes the experience entirely.

The Eat Up – Unlimited Food

The best value option if you’re going with a group that likes to eat.

• Monday to Friday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM | AED 110 (~$30) per person
• Saturday & Sunday: 12:30 PM – 9:00 PM | AED 125 (~$34) per person

Two full hours of unlimited food from a curated menu of Turkish dishes. Think meze spreads, grilled meats, pide, and more, all sharing-friendly. For a hotel restaurant in Al Barsha, AED 110 weekday is genuinely competitive.

The best brunches in Dubai are often judged on value per dirham – and at AED 110 for two hours unlimited, BESH clears that bar on a weekday.

Business Lunch – 3 Courses

The weekday lunch deal for anyone eating near Mall of the Emirates.

• When: Monday to Friday, 12:30 PM – 3:30 PM
• Price: AED 95 (~$26) per person
• What: 3-course set menu

AED 95 for three courses at a Sheraton is hard to argue with. One of the better-value business lunches in the Al Barsha / Mall of the Emirates area.

A La Turk Menu – Set Lunch/Dinner

A curated selection of signature dishes, available daily.

• When: Daily, 12:30 PM – 3:30 PM
• Price: AED 150 (~$41) with soft drink | AED 180 (~$49) with house wine

Good option if you want a structured meal without committing to unlimited food. The A La Turk menu covers appetisers, mains, and desserts. The wine option bumps it to AED 180 – still reasonable compared to most happy hours in Dubai at licensed hotel restaurants.

Taste of Besh – Signature Grill Set

The showcase option – what you order when you want to try their best.

• When: Daily, 12:30 PM – 10:00 PM
• Price: AED 210 (~$57) per person including one soft drink

Lamb chops, chicken skewers, beef kebabs, all grilled on the mangal. The freshest ingredients, seasoned properly, no shortcuts. If you’re bringing someone who hasn’t tried Turkish grill before, this is the one to book.

À la Carte

BESH also has a full à la carte menu for those who prefer to pick and choose. Expect meze starting around AED 35-55, pide at AED 65-95, and grilled mains at AED 95-160. Desserts from AED 35.

Wow-Emirates Expert Tip: Book via OpenTable for the smoothest experience. The restaurant is on Level 5 of the Sheraton – take the hotel elevators, not the mall ones. Valet parking is available at the hotel entrance on the Sheikh Zayed Road side.

What to Order at BESH

You don’t need to overthink this, but a few things are worth flagging.

Start with the meze. Hummus, smoky baba ghanoush, and stuffed dolmas are the obvious picks. Order at least two or three to share while the main event gets sorted.

Get the pide. It comes out of the domed oven and it’s the signature item for a reason – crisp base, fluffy inside, properly portioned. Don’t skip it in favour of going straight to the mains.

For mains, go with the grill. The mangal-grilled items – lamb chops, Adana kebab, chicken skewers – are where BESH is strongest. The meat is well-seasoned, the char is real, and the portion sizes are generous.

Finish with Turkish tea or coffee. The baklava is good (layered, sticky, not too sweet), but the tea ritual is what makes the meal feel complete.

Wow-Emirates Expert Tip: If you’re a group of four or more, the Eat Up unlimited option makes the most mathematical sense. Order everything on the menu across two hours and you’ll leave well ahead on value.

Getting to BESH Turkish Kitchen

BESH is at Level 5 of the Sheraton Hotel at Mall of the Emirates – the hotel is directly connected to the mall on Sheikh Zayed Road in Al Barsha 1.

Is BESH Turkish Kitchen Worth It?

Yes, and the numbers tell you why. For a hotel restaurant at a Marriott property in Dubai, BESH punches above its weight on value – especially the weekday business lunch at AED 95 and the Eat Up unlimited at AED 110. The food is consistent, the setting is comfortable without being stuffy, and the Turkish-first approach to the menu means you’re getting something specific rather than a vague “international” spread.

If you’re after the best Turkish food in Dubai with hotel-level service and without hotel-level prices, BESH is worth the trip to Al Barsha.
