Best steak under 100 AED in Dubai is no longer a rare find. While the city is known for premium dining, a growing number of spots are quietly serving quality steak at prices that stay under, or very close to, AED 100.

From casual food trucks to proper sit-down restaurants, here are five places proving that best steak under 100 AED in Dubai is actually doable.


Smokd Eatery — From AED 56

Smokd Eatery is a meat lover’s spot where quality is the priority and the beef is outstanding. The steak deal starts from AED 56 and the restaurant is open Sunday to Thursday noon to 11:30 PM, and Friday to Saturday noon to 1:30 AM. The kitchen has a clear American BBQ influence with an Asian twist, and the smoked meats are what guests keep coming back for.

Location: Box Park, Al Wasl Road, Jumeirah

Steak On Me — AED 95

Steak On Me originally started as a pop-up in 2022 and is the creation of Emirati restaurateur and Chef Sultan Kayed. It now has a permanent home at Wasl 51 in Jumeirah, and the concept is exactly what it sounds like: well-cooked steaks in a laid-back, upbeat setting, with the house steak available for AED 95 and a free soft serve at the end. The menu also includes a juicy sirloin at AED 120, beef tartare, truffle mac and cheese, and chicken schnitzel tenders.

La Baguette de L’Entrecôte — From AED 60

This one operates as a food truck in Al Barsha and keeps the menu tight. The concept is the authentic Entrecôte sauce served in two formats: a steak baguette and a shaker. The Shaker packs tenderloin beef, fries, and sauce into one cup for AED 60. Give it a proper shake before eating and you get a satisfying mix of steak, crispy fries, and creamy sauce in every bite. It is the most casual option on this list and one of the most fun.

Swiss Butter — From AED 87

Swiss Butter serves a 400g steak with a salad, freshly baked baguette, and a choice of fries or sweet potatoes, starting from AED 87. The menu is focused on just three mains, beef fillet, chicken breast, or salmon, all finished in the restaurant’s signature buttery, garlicky sauce. It is a meal that covers everything without needing you to order extras.

Swiss Butter is open Monday to Sunday noon to midnight and has two Dubai locations: Sofitel Downtown and Novotel Hotel Al Barsha.

Locations and Contact: Sofitel Downtown (04 358 1213) and Novotel Hotel, Al Barsha (04 370 6314)


Rowley’s — From AED 138 (AED 69 After Midnight)

Rowley’s is the one on this list where full transparency is needed on pricing. The classic steak starts at AED 138, with the signature Australian ribeye at AED 168. Standard pricing puts it above the AED 100 mark. However, Rowley’s runs an after-midnight deal with 50% off selected steaks, which brings the classic cut to AED 69.

Even at full price, the value case is strong. The menu has only four items: steak, unlimited frites, salad, and cake, and the frites are on constant refill. The restaurant has a 50-year history originating on London’s Jermyn Street, and the Dubai branch in DIFC’s Central Park Towers comes with terrace views of the Burj Khalifa. Rowley’s was also shortlisted for Best Steakhouse at the Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards 2026.
