A new Nobu is opening in The Link at One Za'abeel later this year
Amidst Dubai's ever-evolving culinary scene, some firm favourites remain. One such name is Nobu, which is opening yet another outpost to the city. Set to welcome guests in 2025, the new Nobu One Za'abeel will be located in The Link. Perched on the suspended 24th floor, this venue promises world-class food and skyline views from inside the world's longest cantilever.
If you've been to a Nobu before, you already know the brand blends modern luxury with minimalist Japanese traditions. The new Nobu One Za'abeel will take that signature aesthetic and give it a futuristic twist. The space will feature a fine-dining restaurant, private dining rooms, and a lounge and bar, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows.
Of course, the real star of the show is the food. Expect Nobu's Japanese-Peruvian flavours with beloved classics like black cod miso, rock shrimp tempura, and wagyu beef dishes, all cooked to perfection. Omakese experiences, replicating the other Nobu branches, will also be on the agenda at this outpost.
Beyond food, the new Nobu One Za'abeel will also offer live entertainment. Think performances that blend with the restaurant's decor, creating a multisensory experience.
With this launch, Nobu strengthens its presence in Dubai. It will be the brand's third location in the city, joining Nobu Dubai at Atlantis, The Palm and Nobu by the Beach at Atlantis The Royal.
Nobu One Za'abeel joins a constellation of culinary superstars at The Link, including StreetXO from Spanish chef Dabiz Muñoz, Sagetsu by the revered Tetsuya Wakuda, and the FACT award-winning La Dame de Pic from the world's most decorated female chef, Anne-Sophie Pic.
While the exact opening date and details for Nobu One Za'abeel are still under wraps, stay tuned at FACT for all the insights.

Review: Hanu, an interactive new Korean restaurant
In Dubai's burgeoning restaurant scene, a handful of restaurants make an instant impact. Sushisamba was one such restaurant, which brought a trifecta of excellent views, dishes and vibes to the Palm Tower in 2021. The man who can be credited with much of the success on the culinary front is chef Kyung Soo Moon, the restaurant's then-executive chef. But now he's turned his attention back to his roots for Hanu, a modern interpretation of Korean cuisine. Found at St Regis Gardens, it's in good company with restaurants like Leña, Aretha, Chez Wam and Tresind Studio among its neighbours. Once inside, we're met with dark and moody interiors with intricate attention to detail. Rich dark walnut woods, striking artworks and Korean pine trees lace the traditional with more contemporary accents befitting of a glamourous new Dubai restaurant. You enter through the lounge and bar where a DJ spins enigmatic beats that are thankfully not overpowering, through to a table in the restaurant. If you're unfamiliar with Korean BBQ, the knowledgeable team are on-hand to make recommendations, and confidently talk us through the concept and must-try dishes. The wagyu beef gyoza (Dhs68) are one such dish, piping hot parcels of Japanese A5 wagyu short rib and shiitake mushroom encased in a dough that's the perfect level of crispy and tender. Forget everything you know about vegetables and order the Korean fried cauliflower (Dhs65), coated in a spicy sauce and served with a side of yuja radish to balance the heat. The almost-too-pretty-to-eat beef tartelette (Dhs110) is another playful interpretation of classic Korean flavours, with a soft quail egg marinated in soy sauce, served on top of a tartelette of beef jongjorim, a layer of caviar giving it a Dubai elevation. To truly get a taste of Korean BBQ, order the 'Meat Me At The Grill' (Dhs365 per person), where you'll be served four cuts of premium meat with a selection of sides, condiments and a stew. It's a generous offering – much like it would be if you dined at Chef Moon's family home – given added wow-factor with the meats cooked on the charcoal grill built into each table. Each buttery cut of meat is full of flavour and perfectly cooked, from the Australian Black Angus to the Japanese A4 Wagyu striploin. For dessert, a beautifully presented golden pear delight (Dhs63) is a light and fresh way to end the meal. Diced Korean pear is paired with a walnut crumble and a scoop of tonka bean ice cream. Verdict: A focus on quality cuisine and service makes this a restaurant deserving of a place on your foodie bucket list.
