Exchange Grill
Dubai's top steakhouse has a clubby feel, with oversized leather arm chairs at giant linen-draped tables, and big picture windows overlooking the glittering strip. The classic American menu features Wagyu beef, which may sound attractive, but is more than twice the price of the more-flavourful USDA prime: save your dirhams.

M's Beef Bistro
The key to running a good steakhouse is developing a solid clientele, the kind who come in at least once a week - M's has a cabinet filled with personal engraved knives for its regular guests. Classics dominate; try the beef carpaccio or beef tartare (prepared tableside). The aged (six-weeks) tenderloin and the fabulous Wagyu are also winners.

Manhattan Grill
It is an accomplishment that this stylish eatery manages to feel so very New York in a hotel that has dhow hulls plastered to the ceiling. The food lives up to its stylish surroundings, too, with sensational steaks, juicy and perfectly cooked to order. Sides of mash (a creamy delight) and vegetables compliment them well.

Peppercrab
The busy open kitchen and huge fish tanks are almost a tourist attraction in their own right, but the fresh fish and shellfish are the real draw at this smart restaurant. The signature chilli-pepper crab is sublime, but there are plenty of innovative creations on the menu as well.

Pierchic
Looking for a place to drop a ring into a glass of champagne? Make reservations for access to this stunning seafood house at the end of a long pier jutting out to sea. The best tables line the outdoor decks and provide drop-dead-gorgeous vistas of the Burj Al Arab and the Madinat Jumeirah.

Pisces & P2 Brasserie
Stylish and slick Pisces is Dubai's top table for seafood. The chef has a knack for eking out intensely bright flavours from his ingredients; dishes are elegantly light and melt on the palate. We're not too keen on his overdependence on foams and nages, but with talent this good, we can forgive a few idiosyncrasies. The understated dining room echoes the colours of the sea: wear blue-grey Armani and blend right in. (No sneakers.)
