The Best Steakhouses in Dubai

A converted Jumeirah villa where the open grill isn't decor, it's the whole argument. This is a modern fine dining restaurant built around wood fire, with oak, hickory, and hay chosen for the specific character each one lends to meat, seafood, or vegetables.

Inside, the space splits into two restaurants, Rockpool and The Salon, one built around an actual indoor pool, the other a grand open-kitchen dining room. Both run the same menu of seafood, steaks, and pasta, plus a traditional Sunday lunch for those who want the full commitment.
