Dining10 amazing restaurants with a view

There is something truly special about dining with a view. Here at Jumeirah we pay special attention to how our restaurants are positioned so that our guests have the perfect accompaniment to our carefully curated menus and wine lists. Here are our favourite restaurants with a view:

Al Muntaha at Burj Al Arab, Dubai

Take in spectacular floor-to-ceiling views over the azure Arabian Gulf from contemporary French restaurant Al Muntaha, set high on the 27th floor of Dubai’s most iconic building, Burj Al Arab. Whether diners are enjoying a leisurely brunch or sampling a wonderful seven-course tasting menus it’s going to be hard not to be mesmerised by the sparkling aquamarine of the shimmering waters below.

 

Il Riccio at Capri Palace, Capri

A firm favourite for exquisite fresh-off-the-boat fish and seafood, the Michelin-starred Il Riccio, at the exclusive Capri beach club, has breath-taking vistas out over the Gulf of Naples. The elegant menu ranges between raw delicacies and perfectly cooked fish all sitting on top of a peerless clifftop perch.

 

Sunset Sushi Lounge at Jumeirah Port Soller, Mallorca

Named for the dramatic sunsets enjoyed from this elevated terrace, the Sunset Sushi Lounge is at its most captivating as evening arrives. Aside from the beautifully prepared, delicate sushi, it is hard to keep your eyes off the food and away from the sweeping views of the Tramuntana Mountains and the glinting Mediterranean.

 

Fenesse at Jumeirah Vittaveli, Maldives

Take a seat under cooling bamboo and sample classic, contemporary French cuisine at overwater fine dining establishment Fenesse on our very own island in the Maldives. Raise a glass of wine from the sommelier’s carefully curated list as you enjoy the incredible views of the Indian Ocean. To bring the horizon that much closer, reserve a private overwater deck for something truly intimate.

 

Zhuo Xian at Jumeirah Nanjing, Nanjing

Set 41 floors above the hustle and bustle of the streets of Nanjing, sleek seafood restaurant Zhuo Xian is designed around a gleaming central bar and accompanied by floor-to-ceiling views of the city’s sparkling skyscrapers. Sample simple, beautifully prepared dishes complemented by theatrical cocktails, as outside the sun sets and the lights of the city blink into urban constellations.

 

Segreto at Jumeirah Mina A’Salam, Dubai

Set on an atmospheric rooftop, Italian restaurant Segreto is made all the more special by its ambient lighting, aromatic olive trees and views over the sparkling waterways to the city beyond. Award-winning Italian food meets lavish Arabian hospitality and enchanting views.

 

Observation Deck at 300 at Jumeirah at Etihad Towers, Abu Dhabi

Enjoy a high tea up high – 300m high, to be precise. Abu Dhabi’s highest restaurant, Observation Deck at 300, is set on the 74th floor of the Etihad Towers, and the 360-degree panoramas of skyscrapers, gardens, beaches and interconnected islands are unparalleled in the city. The light menu mixes local classics with a selection of light plates so as not to detract from the real star of the show.

 

Cu-ba at Jumeirah Creekside Hotel, Dubai

With gleaming white sofas, a cerulean swimming pool and a relaxing Latin feel, Cu-ba would be a destination even without its rooftop position. Yet this bar and restaurant, in addition to its elegant décor, innovative tapas and inventive cocktails, also gazes out towards Dubai’s iconic city skyline.

 

The Palmery at Jumeirah Al Naseem, Dubai

Marvel at a masterpiece of modern architecture from the open, waterside terraces of The Palmery. As you dine on Arabic-infused international cuisine it seems like all that separates you from the gleaming Burj Al Arab is glittering water and a row of gently swaying palm trees.

 

Mare Mare at Jumeirah at Saadiyat Island Resort, Abu Dhabi

Enjoy an endless panorama out over the white sands of Saadiyat Island towards where the turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf meet the boundless blue of the Emirate’s vast skies. Mare Mare’s menu of wonderfully home-cooked Italian classics and dappled loggia shade is simply unforgettable.
