Ramadan is not too far off, and with that comes suhoor dining right before the daily fast. In a place as active and alive as Dubai, late-night dining comes in all forms, so if you’re ever looking to experiment this Ramadan, you simply have to travel around and pick what you fancy. If you’re craving a particular mood, where Suhoor is grounded with decor, entertainment, and an atmosphere that speaks to traditional Arabian hospitality, then these are the spots worth noting.
Armani/Pavilion | Downtown Dubai
One of the city’s go-to suhoors addresses, if you’ve never paid a visit, consider this a sign to go! With an alfresco suhoor, expect warm lights and ever warmer plates of local and international cuisine with breathtaking Burj Khalifa views.
Asateer Tent | Atlantis the Palm
Every year, Atlantis the Palm celebrates the Holy Month with their Ramadan tent. With traditional decor and an Oud player, the tent brings forth Arabian heritage and fosters the spirit of togetherness. Expect an à la carte menu with plates of fresh soups, mezze, grills, and seafood.
Amaseena | Ritz Carlton JBR
Between swaying palms and the Ain Dubai is Amaseena, where traditional recipes meet contemporary aesthetics. For the month of Ramadan, you can expect Amaseena’s Suhoor to be filled with Arabic-inspired mocktails and signature dishes like shawarma, soujouk, and luqaimat from their à la carte menu.
Al Majils | Madinat Jumeirah
Another address you wouldn’t want to miss is Madinat Jumeirah’s Ramadan tent. Split between the open-air Al Majlis Garden and the opulent indoor Al Majlis, we would recommend the latter for its options. You can take your pick between buffet dining or an à la carte suhoor, while feasting on the atmosphere as well.
Ewaan | Palace Downtown
With heritage Arabian decor and live Oud music, Ewaan sets the tone for the day with their Suhoors. Hosting a lavish buffet complete with live cooking stations from Thursday to Saturday and a curated set menu from Sunday to Wednesday, you can find refined Arabian dishes here that are both hearty and comforting.
Layalina Majlis | Marriott Resort
Soft lights, private seating, and waterfront views are some of what you can expect at Marriott Resort’s open-air Ramadan majlis. Between live traditional music and the serene sounds of the West Beach, Layalina Majlis’ Suhoor is refined and scaled-down, yet still offering sophisticated dining.
St. Trop | Waldorf Astoria
Dining in Dubai is rarely complete without rooftop views. At St. Trop, you begin your Suhoor with fresh breads, roasted nuts and dry fruits, cold and hot mezze, and more, along with stunning views of the Burj Khalifa. Don’t forget to try their chicken shawarma wraps before ending the meal with fresh fruit and sticky date pudding.
