Marsa Boulevard: With 13+ Restaurants, This New Waterfront Foodie Haven In Dubai Is Set To Be A Local Favourite!

Dubai never lets us go hungry, literally. If we attempted to try every restaurant in this city, we’d need years (and an extra stomach). But for those who love the thrill of discovering a new dining hotspot, Marsa Boulevard is the latest must-visit destination. Perched along the stunning Dubai Creek, this seasonal waterfront gem is a paradise for food lovers and culture seekers.

Marsa Boulevard doesn’t stop at feeding your belly, it also feeds your soul. The space features fashion pop-ups, immersive art installations, live performances, and workshops that change regularly. So, while you wait for your dessert (or second round of sushi), you can browse some exclusive pieces, catch a live painting session, or even take part in a hands-on creative experience. Who knew dining could be this interactive?

So, don’t wait for too long to tick this off your foodie bucket list. Get to Marsa Boulevard now and eat like there’s no tomorrow (because, well, there might not be if you miss it).
