As we head into the latter part of 2020, there are still plenty of exciting new dining establishments set to open in Dubai.
With that, here’s EW’s round-up of five fabulous new restaurants opening this month.
Il Passaggio
Set to open tomorrow, September 7, this new eatery at The Pointe will tick all of your boxes when it comes to classic Italian cuisine. The clean and modern aesthetic of the new establishment also makes for the ultimate relaxing dining experience.
Koko Bay, Palm Jumeirah
Bringing Bali to the shores of Palm Jumeirah, new establishment Koko Bay – which opened on September 1 – is a must-try in our books. The laidback vibe of the new venue will make you feel like you’re in paradise with a series of sun loungers and hammocks. It offers both indoor and al fresco dining with a modern Asian and European-influenced menu alongside bespoke beverages. Live entertainment is also on the cards, making it the perfect spot to start your weekends the right way.
99 Sushi Bar & Restaurant, DIFC
For those seeking a new DIFC hotspot, this Japanese restaurant could be just the ticket. Combining signature dishes including foie gras nigiri, gunkan sushi and spicy tuna tartare, along with incredible views of the Burj Khalifa, this new eatery which opened on September 1 makes for the ultimate Downtown Dubai dining experience.
Paros, JLT
Enjoy a Mediterranean feast at the new rooftop bar and restaurant, Paros, located in JLT. Dishes include grilled octopus, Greek-style keftedes, smoked eggplant salad and more. It’s the perfect place to unwind after a long work-week and watch the sunset over Dubai from the 46th floor.
LOLA’s
While it’s not set to open until next month, we thought we’d put this new Spanish eatery on your radar. New restaurant LOLA, located at TRYP by Wyndham Barsha Heights, will transport you to the streets of Andalusia, Spain. “The taverna will offer the largest selection of Spanish Tavern charcuterie in Dubai and will be the first restaurant to serve Cañas, 20 cl hops, the perfect pairing for tapas,” Lorenzo Marras, Managing Director – Dining at Sunset Hospitality Group, said. It’s safe to say you’ll definitely find us there come October.
