Fine dining in Dubai
In recent years, Dubai's upscale dining scene has undergone a significant transformation, adapting to the discerning tastes of its increasing number of visitors. While those familiar with the city's culinary offerings have recognized their quality for some time, the Michelin guide's introduction in 2022 served as official validation. It solidified what some were already aware of: Dubai, often referred to as the City of Gold, has ascended to the ranks of the world's premier dining destinations, earning it a place among the best globally.

Trèsind Studio
After receiving a single Michelin star in the inaugural Dubai guide, Trèsind Studio has now been ceremoniously elevated to a two-star rating in the 2023 edition.

With seating available for just 20 guests, each with a view of the open kitchen, Trèsind Studio not only promises one of the most accomplished dining experiences in Dubai but also one of the most intimate ones.

Il Ristorante – Niko Romito
Il Ristorante by Niko Romito, situated within the luxurious Bulgari Hotel, has become the second Dubai restaurant to receive two Michelin stars. Renowned for his innovative approach to gourmet cuisine, the Italian chef, Niko Romito, is celebrated for creating dishes that are lighter and healthier, emphasizing rich flavors while minimizing fat and carbs.
Giacomo Amicucci, another talented Italian, leads the kitchen at Romito's Dubai establishment. According to Michelin guides' inspectors, Amicucci crafts sophisticated and modern Italian dishes that possess a complexity beyond initial impressions. Although an extensive à la carte menu is available, those in Dubai likely prefer going all-in, making the Degustazione menu the ideal choice for an immersive dining experience.

Ossiano
It's not often sharks and stingrays swim past you as you dine but, then again, there aren’t many restaurants with huge windows looking into an aquarium of 65,000 marine animals. From the moment you descend the marble spiral staircase into this unique restaurant at the Atlantis, you’ll find yourself transfixed and fully immersed. Chef Grégoire Berger’s childhood memories and travels inspire the fish and shellfish set menu; many of the dishes are finished off at the table with an added dash of theatricality.
