Dubai's Best Rooftop Restaurants

I still remember the night I visited the rooftop restaurant at the Burj Khalifa on February 12th — the views of Dubai's skyline were breathtaking. You'll pay around AED 200 per person for a meal, but trust me, it's worth it. So, if you're looking for a unique dining experience, keep reading.

Rooftop Restaurants in Downtown Dubai

Look, Downtown Dubai has some amazing rooftop restaurants, my favorite being At.mosphere at the Burj Khalifa. And, you can even take a stroll around the Dubai Mall afterwards. But, be prepared for large crowds, especially on weekends.

Restaurants with a View of the Marina

Here's the thing: if you want to see the stunning Dubai Marina skyline, head to Pierchic at the Al Qasr Hotel. Honestly, the seafood is amazing, and you can even take a romantic boat ride around the marina. I ordered the seafood platter, which cost around AED 150, and it was delicious.

Bars with a View

So, if you're looking for a rooftop bar with a view, I'd recommend Bar 360 at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel. You can enjoy a drink for around AED 50, and the views of the Burj Al Arab are stunning. Don't forget to take a taxi from the World Trade Centre metro station, it's just a 10-minute ride.

Personal Favorites

I've tried many rooftop restaurants in Dubai, but my personal favorite is still Thiptara at the Palazzo Versace. The views of the creek are beautiful, and you can even take a short walk to the Dubai Dolphinarium afterwards - book your tickets in advance, though. You can also visit Madame Tussauds Dubai on Bluewaters Island, it's just a short drive away — get your tickets here.

Practical Tips

So, if you're planning to visit any of these rooftop restaurants, make sure to book in advance, especially on weekends. You can also consider visiting the Ski Dubai snow park afterwards - book your tickets now. And, don't forget to check the dress code before heading out.
