We had a fantastic time at Akira Back Dubai. The food was amazing, with a great selection of sushi, tempura, and creative dishes like tuna pizza and Korean fried chicken. The atmosphere is upbeat, with music and a party vibe, making it a great choice for those looking to enjoy a vibrant brunch. The staff are very attentive and friendly, making sure guests are well taken care of. It's a popular spot, so make sure to book in advance. Highly recommend it if you're looking for great food and a lively vibe!
We visited on a Tuesday evening for the 9 course tasting menu. The staff and service were very good. The food was to a high standard, with each course being explained in detail. We were seated outside in the VIP area, which had spectacular views across the Palm, which made the experience even more memorable. The only negative point was that I found the DJ music too loud for this setting. I would recommend to anyone staying at the W Dubai to try this restaurant.
We had a great afternoon at the Candy pants Saturday brunch. The food was amazing and the alcohol was very free flowing. It was a great party atmosphere and Rayn/Ora made our day even more special by giving us first class service looking after us If you fancy a great Saturday party afternoon we would definitely recommend it
We went for the brunch was good fun, food was free flowing along with the drinks. Our servers were Rayn & Ora who were more than accommodating during the Brunch. Highly Recommend xx
