Over 100 participating venues will serve exclusive set menus from 9 to 25 May.
Year after year, Dubai Restaurant Week packs the schedules of curious foodies and seasoned gourmands alike — with countless dining outlets offering exclusive set menus at surprisingly affordable prices, why do anything but feast your way around town? This year’s edition will run from Friday, 9 to Sunday, 25 May, and a staggering 100+ venues ranging from casual eateries to fine-dining institutions are confirmed to participate.
Like previous editions, you can choose from two-course lunches (priced AED 125) and three-course dinners (priced AED 250), giving diners the chance to explore new flavours, discover local concepts and hidden gems, rediscover old favourites, and immerse themselves in the culinary artistry that Dubai is renowned for. As for what’s on the roster? Homegrown Balkan bistro 21grams, Italian seafood spot Alici, Ariana Bundy’s debut restaurant Ariana’s Persian Kitchen, upscale steakhouse Beefbar, Peruvian hotspot COYA, playful Chinese eatery Demon Duck, and supperclub-turned-restaurant Girl & the Goose for starters.
Gerbou, a new concept that reimagines Emirati cuisine through a modern lens while celebrating local craftsmanship, is also part of the action. Those looking to dine somewhere recognised by the prestigious Michelin Guide are also in luck. 11 Woodfire, honoured with a Michelin Star, will spotlight the ancient art of open-fire cooking during Dubai Restaurant Week.
Boca and Lowe, meanwhile, have been awarded Michelin Green Stars and are also set to serve limited-time only menus, giving green-minded foodies a chance to enjoy the eco-friendly fare. Bookings to all 103 participating restaurants are now open, and you can book your spot via Dubai Restaurant Week’s official booking partner, OpenTable.
