1. Aka
Check out Aka for a fancy evening supper. The restaurant is extremely Instagrammable, thanks to its massive blooms of deep fuchsia floral arrangements. Theatrical sushi displays and delectable appetisers can be found here. However, the perfectly prepared Wagyu tenderloin (Dhs350) presented on a smoking charcoal tray is worth saving room for.

Benihana was one of the city’s original Teppanyaki restaurants. And he hosted one of Dubai’s earliest – and most enjoyable – theatrical Teppanyaki nights. When you dine in these days, you can still expect the cooks to put on a show. They’ll also prepare your seafood, succulent meat, and fresh vegetables right in front of your eyes. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available at this famed restaurant. Though we’d always take a seat at the Teppanyaki.
