Brilliant food, service, and atmosphere! Nada, Paul, and Amine were extremely accommodating to my family. The delicious food, attentive staff, and amazing view of the Burj and fountain show made this a truly memorable birthday for my mother. I highly recommend this restaurant when you are in Dubai!
