City Social Dubai

It’s one of the most talked about fine dining restaurants in Dubai at the moment. Located in Grosvenor House on the 43rd floor, in the heart of Dubai Marina, City Social is a modern European cuisine establishment infused with Japanese flavours by celebrity chef Jason Atherton. Paired with top-notch beverages and the most stunning 360 views of Dubai – City Social is THE place to go to for a guaranteed exquisite experience, be it a date night, brunch or any occasion.

Dubai is awash with stunning eateries offering so many unforgettable experiences and culinary journeys.  City Social is a great destination in my opinion for a date night or if you have friends or family visiting the city and want to wow them with a chic dining experience.   The venue is glamorous and sexy on the 43rd floor, with ambient lighting, impeccable service and of course some of the best ingredients from around the world.

Jason Atherton is known as one of Britain’s best-loved chefs and owner of multiple Michelin-starred restaurants worldwide.  He successfully runs The Social Company restaurant group, including Michelin-starred City Social, Berner’s Tavern, Social Eating House, Little Social and Harrods Social.  I visited recently to check out the new Summer menu running up until August 31st 2024 and available everyday from 6pm to 11pm.  It consists of a special 3-course set menu curated by chef Jason Atherton and inspired by his culinary travels in the South of France.  For a great price of AED250, you can enjoy stunning views of the city, fine dining at its best, an impressive champagne cart (my personal fave!), and the most mouth-watering menu to choose from (see below). My personal faves from the menu – the Confit Lamb Neck and the Raspberry Mille-Feuille. I also found out that they use a lot of local produce to create the fabulous dishes included the most divine tomatoes for the Heritage tomato starter.

I’ll 100% be back here (I must bring the husband next time) and I also want to try their Saturday brunch which I hear is also phenomenal.
