Got guests in town. We want to take them out tomorrow night for a last night supper, but have no idea where to take them. We hardly ever go out ourselves. Only criteria is not British cuisine and not at the fountains. Whilst the fountains are lovely, we have another set of visitors next week who will want to go there and this set saw them earlier in the week! I was thinking one of the beach hotels, perhaps somewhere outside with a nice view. DH not wild on fish, so Pier Chic out. Budget - not really bothered about scrimping too much, But not Burj al Arab prices!!

I've done a search, but can't seem to narrow it down.

TIA

I posted earlier and my post has gone! Good to see that others have put some of the ones I recommended. Zheng He's is lovely Pai Thai on the terrace on the water is one of my favourites Nobu at Atlantis I agree with the op that Shimmers on the beach is gorgeous location - the food used to be lovely but they have changed their menu so I would agree - just go there for drinks before going to a different restaurant. I love the Grand Grill at the Habtoor Grand - never been disappointed Ruths Chris steak house at the Monarch is also super Petite Maison is being raved about I really like Caramel at DIFC too

They have been to Madinat, but not against going again. Just don't know where to go there. Only been to Left Bank and that's not terribly special is it? We like Trader Vic and The Meat Company at the Madinat but usually go to Shimmers beach bar at Mina Al Salam for pre dinner drinks. You can walk over the bridge to the Madinat. The Chinese at Mina Al Salam (Zheng He?) is nice too.

Indego in Grovenors House is amazing Indian food, superb service, our favorite restaurant in Dubai, and we do go out quite a bit. Zuma if you like Sushi. Quite nice bc it's always "happening" Pai Thai in Al Kasr is always a hit bc you arrive by abra
