Where to eat in Dubai
Al Ustad Special Kebab
A no-frills Iranian restaurant in Bur Dubai that's been serving perfect kebabs since 1978. The lamb kubideh is legendary — tender, smoky, and served with saffron rice. Under $10 for a feast.
Tresind Studio
A 8-seat chef's table serving progressive Indian cuisine that'll change how you think about Indian food. The 12-course menu is playful, precise, and worth every dirham. Book months ahead.
3Fils
A casual seafood-focused restaurant in Dubai Harbour with Asian-inspired flavours. The lobster roll and the salmon sashimi tacos are outstanding. No reservations — just queue and the wait is always worth it.
Orfali Bros Bistro
Three Syrian brothers cooking a menu that blends Middle Eastern traditions with global technique. The knafeh French toast and the wagyu shawarma are genius. Consistently rated the best restaurant in the Middle East.
Ravi Restaurant
A legendary Pakistani restaurant in Satwa that's been feeding Dubai since 1978. The butter chicken and the dal are comfort food perfection at absurdly low prices. Cash only, always busy, always good.
LPM Restaurant & Bar
French Mediterranean cuisine in DIFC with an elegant terrace. The burrata with truffle and the lamb cutlets are flawless. The business lunch is exceptional value for this level of cooking.
Logma
Modern Emirati cuisine that introduces locals' actual food to tourists. The regag (thin bread) with cheese and the balaleet (sweet vermicelli with omelette) are authentic breakfast treasures.
Amazonico
A rainforest-themed restaurant in DIFC with dramatic decor and Latin American-Japanese fusion. The ceviche and the robata-grilled meats are excellent. The energy on weekend nights is electric.
