Restaurant restaurants in Dubai

  1. A

    Grand Grill

    Wine racks line the walls of this South African steakhouse, a favourite of carnivores in search of half-kilo slabs of perfectly grilled meat and boerewors sausage. Detractors point to disappointing appetisers and overly inventive mains that just don’t work, but there’s no denying the pleasure of biting into a juicy steak the size of a fat man’s thigh.

    Bateaux Dubai

    If the food is more important to you than the ambience, indulge in a four-course à la carte feast aboard this stylish contemporary boat with floor-to-ceiling windows, linen-draped tables and a live DJ.

    Special Ostadi

    If you’re not in touch with your conservative side, you can’t go wrong with a meal at Special Ostadi.

    JW’s Steakhouse

    In the classic American tradition, the dimly lit JW’s is done in dark-wood panelling with green-leather Queen Anne wing chairs. The menu is equally orthodox, with succulent fat-man-sized steaks and chops, best preceded by Scotch and followed by cigars. Expats know JW’s best as the home of the 12-hour Friday brunch, the longest in town (note: no alcohol served between 4pm and 6pm; call for details).
