Dubai not only captivates with its fabulous skyscrapers but also with its outstanding gastronomic offerings that leave all visitors in awe. Dubai is a city that appeals to multiculturalism and combines flavor experiences from other countries, bringing together the most diverse proposals.
Beyond the great architectural promises expected this 2025, the year will also be marked by the opening of new restaurants that bring unique experiences with cuisines from other countries and those that blend the most traditional cultures with modern dishes. In this context, there are three highly anticipated venues that will dazzle visitors and captivate even the most eccentric.
Kira, the most awaited project at Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab
The options are many, and new residents will not know what to choose with so much diversity. To make the decision easier, experts recommend Kira, a gastronomic space located at Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab. The fusion of cultures will be the highlight at this venue, offering a mix of Japanese and Mediterranean flavors in a glamorous setting.
LITT will also be showcased here, a luxurious bar that will become an icon for nighttime gatherings in the city. The decor of both spaces provides a sense of relaxation, with furniture matching this site’s vibe and privileged views of the sea and the entire city. During its presentation, the venue’s representatives emphasized that “these two locations match their iconic site, promising the same level of excellence and innovation.”
Gerbou, the winter promise in Dubai
To enjoy the pleasant Dubai winter, Gerbou stands out as one of the most luxurious options in Nad Al Sheba. This is a venue that blends the best of Emirati cuisine and preserves its roots intact by promoting sustainable cooking. Its name translates from Arabic to “welcome to my humble abode,” and its design reflects the best of this country’s culture, paying tribute to its simple and warm architecture.
Set in a remodeled 1987 building, the venue is described by its owners as “a cozy, heartwarming, experimental, and stimulating place, and a designed space.” This restaurant is the result of collaboration between Tashkeel and Atelier House Hospitality, featuring the culinary expertise of chef Ionel Catau. Those who visit will find here the perfect place to experience different sensations and explore the most traditional recipes.
A slice of New York in the heart of Dubai
Carbone, one of New York’s signature venues, will find its space at Atlantis The Royal and is set to open in the first quarter of the year. One of the highlights of this place is that its menu brings together the best of Italian cuisine with a New York twist. Visiting it is an experience in itself, as its location inside the glamorous hotel adds a unique and fun charm.
Each dish will have a distinctive presentation, served by waitstaff inspired by New York in the 1950s. The decor will also play a key role, with velvet corners in jewel tones, damask-covered walls, mirrors, and works of art in every nook. In addition to Dubai, this iconic venue also has locations in major tourist cities such as Hong Kong, Las Vegas, Miami, Dallas, Doha, and Riyadh.
