You know that feeling when you walk into a restaurant to find everything glam and shiny? Low lights, you can’t read the menu under, burrata on everything, and bills that make you question your life choices. Now breathe easy, because Apollo has entered the club. Tucked into Palm Views West on Palm Jumeirah, Apollo is an all-day bistro is ditching the fluff and serving comfort food with major chill energy. It’s smart, it’s stylish, and it still feels like you’re eating somewhere cool without needing a loan.
Apollo Lands on Palm Jumeirah With Comfort Food, Cool Vibes & A No-Gold-Leaf Guarantee
Created by local hospitality legends TABLE4TWO, the geniuses behind Rascals Deli, ‘Za ‘Za Slice, Dime Burger and more. Apollo is for the kind of diner who wants quality and ease. Whether you’re sliding in for a work lunch, a post-gym bite, or a long, lazy dinner with friends, this place flexes with your schedule.
The menu? A globe-trotting comfort food journey. Think prawn sesame toast that’s crunchy and nostalgic, ceviche classico with citrus that hits just right, and the creamiest Spinach & Artichoke Dip in town. Craving something hearty? Clam linguine, chicken pot pie, duck confit with arroz nikkei, and the mighty Apollo burger with dry-aged wagyu have got your back. And yes, they serve caramelised popcorn ice cream. This isn’t fusion for the sake of being fancy. It’s fun, familiar, and full of flavour. You’ll leave full, satisfied, and still with enough dirhams in your wallet to grab dessert.
Design That Says ‘Cool’ Without Screaming
Let’s talk interiors. Designed by Muqaddas Akkari Studio (MA Studio), Apollo’s space is that perfect mix of raw and refined. Patterned velvet sofas? Check. Exposed vents and floor-to-ceiling windows? You bet. Deep burgundy walls meet rich wooden textures, setting the mood without overdoing it.
It’s got that minimalist art lining the walls, and the lighting shifts ever so subtly from day to night. It’s giving New York bistro meets Dubai waterside hangout. Whether you’re seated by the window watching yachts float past or curled up on a plush couch with a plate of clam linguine, you’re exactly where you need to be.
