FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A few honest answers to the things you're most likely to ask.

From reservations and dietary needs to deliveries and finding a quiet corner to sit, these are the practical questions that tend to come up before, during, or after a visit.

If you can't find what you're looking for below, our team is only ever an email away. We'd rather answer twice than leave you guessing — write to us at [email protected] any time, and someone will get back to you.

RESERVATIONS & WALK-INS

Can I make a reservation?

Yes, and we'd always recommend booking ahead — especially on weekends, when a reservation saves you from a longer waitlist. You can book for any group size between 12pm–midnight on weekdays, and from 9am–midnight on weekends, when we serve breakfast exclusively until 11.30am.

Do you take walk-ins?

Yes, you're more than welcome to walk in — we hold back some tables for walk-in guests. On weekends though, we can't make any promises, so we'd advise booking in advance.

Do you take large group bookings?

Absolutely — we love hosting big gatherings. Bookings for up to 15 guests can be made online. For anything larger, or if you can't find a slot that works, write to us at [email protected] and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

My deposit wasn't taken off my bill, what should I do?

Our apologies for the confusion. Drop us a line at [email protected] with your reservation details and a copy of your receipt, and our team will sort out your refund promptly.

I want to cancel my large party reservation, will my deposit be refunded?

Of course. Just let us know at least 48 hours before your booking, and we'll happily refund your deposit.

Can I amend my reservation party size?

Absolutely. Your booking confirmation email should have an option to amend your reservation. You're also welcome to email [email protected] and we'll take care of it for you.

Do you have valet parking?

We don't, but there's ample RTA parking right in front of the restaurant.

IN-HOUSE

Are you pet friendly?

Yes, during winter months, when our outdoor verandah is open.

I've lost or left something at the restaurant, what should I do?

Not to worry. Email [email protected] and our team will get to work tracking down your lost item.

What are your opening hours?

We're open Monday to Friday, 12pm-12am, and Saturday and Sunday, 9am–12am. We're open as usual on public holidays. Breakfast is served exclusively on weekends, from 9am until 11.30am.

Can we bring a birthday cake?

Please do — just bring it along on the day itself, as our storage space is limited.

FOOD & MENU

I'm vegan or vegetarian — what can I have?

We have a generous selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes, clearly marked across our menus.

I'm Jain — do you cater to my dietary needs?

We don't have a dedicated Jain menu, but we do offer dishes free from onion, potato, garlic, and egg, which many of our Jain guests enjoy.

Is your food halal?

In the UAE, all meat is sourced halal by law, and at Khadak we go a step further by sourcing exclusively from Halal-certified suppliers. Certificates are available on request for your peace of mind.

Do you cater for allergies or intolerances?

We take every precaution to avoid cross-contamination in our kitchens, but we can't guarantee any dish or drink is entirely allergen-free. Allergens are clearly marked on our menus, and we'd encourage you to flag any dietary requirements to your server.

Are you kid-friendly?

Very much so. We have a dedicated Kid's Menu, highchairs on hand, and are happy to warm milk on request.

Do you have non-spicy food?

Certainly. We cater to guests of a wide range of spice preferences, so our menu ranges from mild to spicy — there's something for everyone. Your server will be glad to guide you.

Do you serve alcohol?

We're a non-licensed restaurant, but we're known for our house-made non-alcoholic cocktails and fermented kombuchas, which many of our guests enjoy just as much.

Do you offer catering?

Yes, we cater for private events. Send your enquiry through the form on our website or reach out directly to [email protected]. We also take large takeaway orders.

Do you have set menus?

Yes — for groups of 8 or more, we offer our Feasting menus at breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

DELIVERY & TAKEAWAY

Can you deliver to my address?

Yes — we deliver via Deliveroo, Talabat, and Careem, within a set radius of the restaurant. Do check online with your preferred platform to confirm coverage at your address.

Do you offer takeaway or click-and-collect?

You're welcome to pick up your order directly from Khadak, or book a Careem Box. We also handle large takeaway and delivery orders for bigger gatherings.

Can we take home leftovers from our meal?

Absolutely — just let your server know and they'll happily box up your leftovers. The one exception is our tasting and set menus, which are designed to be experienced dining in, so we'd kindly ask that these be enjoyed at the table.

SAFETY & ACCESSIBILITY

Is Khadak wheelchair-accessible?

Yes, we are.

Do you have highchairs?

Yes. Let us know how many you'll need in your reservation notes, or simply ask our host on arrival.

Can we sit in a quieter part of the restaurant?

Of course — just leave us a note when booking, or mention it to a member of the team on arrival. We'll always try to make reasonable adjustments so you're comfortable with us.

Please do — we're all ears at [email protected], and our team will be glad to hear from you.
