The new Canary Beach arrives at Club Vista Mare on Palm Jumeirah, created by the same team behind Canary Club and The MAINE. Expect a menu of beach-ready dishes including sushi and ceviches designed for a relaxed seaside setting.
CARBONE at Atlantis The Royal
CARBONE, the acclaimed Italian-American restaurant from New York, is opening at Atlantis The Royal. A magnet for celebrities, it promises veal parmesan, tuxedo-clad wait staff, and a dining room atmosphere straight from 1950s New York.

Gran Meliá Dubai Jumeirah is launching four distinct venues at once: Cazibeli, a Turkish-inspired communal dining experience; Novikov, serving Italian-Mediterranean cuisine; Park Chinois, a luxury Chinese restaurant evoking 1930s Shanghai; and Rubia Gallega, a Spanish steakhouse focused on prized Galician beef.
Geisha and Mūn in DIFC and La Mer
Pan-Asian cuisine, a live sushi bar, and evening entertainment are all part of the promise when Geisha opens in the DIFC district in May. At the same time, the French concept Mūn will offer sharing plates rooted in Asian flavours at J1 Beach, La Mer.
