My sister and I were shopping in the mall and after all the shopping we were hungry and decided to try out Accents at the InterContinental Dubai Marina… And we were not disappointed! I would rate Accents as one of the best restaurants in the area. Location is excellent as the hotel is located in the middle of Dubai Marina. At arrival, the friendly staff asked us if we wanted to dine in- or outside. It was dark already and opted to enjoy the stunning outdoor views. I immediately noticed how well maintained this place is. It all looked brand new and smelled amazing.

The most accommodating waiter asked us what we wanted to drink and I asked if they have any non-alcoholic cocktails and boy – they definitely have them! Honestly, one of the best Virgin Mojito I have ever tried. It was just delicious and so refreshing! My sister is a pinacolada fan and thoroughly enjoyed hers. We don’t drink alcohol frequently and it is always nice to see that a place offers a good selection of non-alcoholic versions of the usual cocktails. What a great start of our evening 🙂

The food itself was just delicious. As a starter I tried their raw mango salad and absolutely loved it! The salad came with grilled chicken, peanuts, a lovely tapenade and balsamic caviar. It was not too large so excellent as a starter! For the main course I thoroughly enjoyed the corn fed chicken breast. The home made croquets and mushroom puree were to die for! I could eat this every day 🙂 And of course, every great dinner should be finished with a delicious dessert. And since I am a chocolate lover, I enjoyed their chocolate dessert which came with some caramel and peanuts. Loved it!

Accent at InterContinental Dubai Marina is a top notch restaurant with a great ambiance and excellent service. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a perfect lunch or dinner with one of the best views one could wish for! Loved it!
