Anyone thinking of booking here on a Friday night it’s a must. Amazing buffet including steak chicken 4 different salads lobster and so much more with cocktails wine and beer for around £100 a face, none alcoholic package £60. We went on a Wednesday also which was nice but a little quiet. Friday is also live Jazz and samba. Fantastic last night of our holiday. Special mention to Lucy our waitress first class as well.

Loved it. It is very hard to find places with the current weather and humidity to have a space which is outdoor and air conditioned. Malibu Kitchen is a perfect place to sit outdoors and enjoy a meal and drinks. Their service is on point and attentive. Music is on the correct decibel so you can have a good conversation with friends. It’s a nice and cool vibe.

We went for Saturday Roast Lunch. And chose Beef and Lamb. We enjoyed both very much but would have been nice if the beef was roast rather than brisket as it came out a little bit too rich and salty for us. Otherwise starters were very nice. We kept asking the roast lunch menu as different staff came and took it away… and didn’t quite understand what we wanted every time we asked… we wanted to choose drinks included in the package. Also they tried very hard redirecting the AC vents but we felt too cold sitting outside… it would have been nice if they could control the temperature more adequately. However the service was good and atmosphere was nice so definitely we’ll go back and try different dishes.

It is a pleasure to know you enjoyed the starters, service and atmosphere, and that your Saturday Roast experience had many highlights. At the same time, it is appreciated that you have highlighted a few areas where the experience could have been smoother, particularly regarding the beef preparation, menu communication and comfort levels. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back again soon to explore more of the menu. Sincerely, Guest Relations

The setting is lovely, it’s a very nice atmosphere sitting by the pool, surrounded by the greenery and the plants. I felt it was very average, I ordered shrimp pasta, and it literally had 3 pieces of shrimp in it. I was definitely expecting more shrimp for the entrée. I wish they would do more to separate the non-smoking from the smoking area. As a non-smoker who’s extremely bothered by the smell of smoke, the table next to us were heavy smokers.
Malibu Kitchen at the Ned DohaResponded on 12 April 2026
Dear Kathleen, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience at Malibu Kitchen did not fully meet your expectations, particularly regarding the shrimp pasta portion and the seating arrangement despite your non-smoking request. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused, as this is not the level of comfort or consistency we aim to provide. Your comments have been shared with the team, and we will be investigating this further to ensure improvements are made in both service execution and guest seating considerations. We appreciate your valuable feedback, which helps us learn and improve. Sincerely, Guest Relations

Fantastic venue. Roast dinner was good. Tho the brisket beef was too greasy for my liking, the meat was very tender. Yorkshire puddings were by far the best in Doha and that made it for me!

Excellent service at The Malibu Kutchen from start to finish. I was very well looked after, enjoying a tasty 3 course business lunch and some cool beverages. I love the layout of this restaurant with the outoor air conditioning and the greenery. What a lovely afternoon!
