5 of the best restaurants in Dubai this week: June 9 to June 12
No plans? You do now…
Outside is cancelled 'til further notice, but Dubai is in its glow-up era anyway. The temps are rising, but so is the lineup – which makes these 5 of the best restaurants in Dubai worth leaving the house for. Save this list. Three Cuts Steakhouse
Set on the rooftop of Nakheel Mall, this low-key spot keeps things simple: quality meat, solid execution, and a laid-back setting. The business lunch takes the same approach – one starter, one main – with picks like beef carpaccio, mushroom risotto, and steak frites. It's Dhs135 well spent, and makes for an easy midday break.
Offer: Dhs135 for one starter and one main
Timings: Monday to Friday, 12pm to 4pm
Location: Rooftop, Nakheel Mall, Palm Jumeirah
