The Best Seafood Near Dragonfly, by the Record


  1. A seafood restaurant built around a working fishing harbour, where the day's catch sits on ice near the entrance so you can pick what ends up on your plate. The team behind 3Fils partnered with a Turkish fisherman to open this rustic spot, and the menu leans into that provenance, running from Norwegian salmon and turbot to locally caught hamour when the boats cooperate. Tahini baklava closes things out in a way nobody argues with.



  2. Sunset views over the Arabian Gulf come with the territory at this seafood restaurant inside the Al Hamra Beach villas, where the kitchen leans into the local catch rather than hedging with an international menu. The dining room pulls in the coastal palette around it, all whites and blues, and the crowd tends toward guests who've already swapped their phones for sunscreen. A Forbes Four Star property frames the whole thing.
