Some of the best restaurants in the world are offering a limited-time discount on food and beverages during Ramadan.
Atlantis, The Palm and Atlantis, The Royal are two of the most highly regarded hotels in the city and the pair boast some of the most talked about restaurants and bars in Dubai.
The likes of Dinner by Heston Blumenthal (our official best restaurant in Dubai for 2024), Hakkasan and Nobu are all based at Atlantis hotels.
And if you want a taste of the high life for less then you can do so during Ramadan with a 25 percent off offer at a selection of restaurants at Atlantis Dubai.
How do I get 25% off dining at Atlantis Dubai?
Ok, so here’s the boring but crucial information if you want to take advantage of the limited-time offer.
A special tiered rewards programme with Atlantis Dubai gives diners exclusive rewards throughout the year on the Atlantis Circle app.
The four tiers are blue, silver, gold and black with blue being the lowest tier and available to everyone with no minimum spend while black is open to anyone who spends Dhs40,000 within a 12-month period.
So if you want a taste of what gold membership is like without spending a single fil for membership, you can do so with a blue card during Ramadan.
After Ramadan, you’ll still be entitled to 15 percent off food and drinks at Atlantis Dubai restaurants or 20 percent if you opt for the Dhs10,000 minimum spend silver tier.
Where can I use my discount?
You are able to use the discount in nine restaurants in the city which we will outline below.
Dinner by Heston Blumenthal
There are few chefs whose names invoke a reaction like British chef Heston Blumenthal. Whether it’s a sea shell concealing an iPod (remember them?), bacon and egg ice cream or the Alice in Wonderland-inspired Mock Turtle Soup, Blumenthal is known for food as visual as it is ambitious.
Dinner’s quirk? It serves classic British dishes that your grandmother might recognise, actually, your grandmother’s grandmother might recognise, as the concept behind this restaurant is based on British recipes going as far back as the 1300s. Winner of the overall best restaurant in Dubai for 2024 at our Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards.

En Fuego
Translating to ‘on fire’ in Spanish, En Fuego is certainly ablaze with the intensity of its theme. This is not a serious restaurant for serious people looking for serious dining. It’s a carnival of kitsch, and the dining room equivalent of Disneyland. Dishes are easy to share and the food is full of flavour. Nominated for our best Latin American restaurant in Dubai at the Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards 2024.

Nobu by the Beach
The first ever beach club from Japanese dining maestro Nobu, this ultra-swish spot can be found at the iconic Atlantis The Royal on Palm Jumeirah. Designed to feel like a modern Japanese beach house, there’s a huge lagoon pool to cool off in and take some snaps by, plus a separate indoor restaurant for when you get peckish. Nominated for best beach club of the year at Time Out Dubai Nightlife Awards.

estiatorio Milos
One of the largest restaurants at Atlantis, The Royal comes from chef Costas Spiliadis. Famed around the world, with restaurants in New York, Athens, Las Vegas, Miami, London and the original in Montreal, estiatorio Milos is renowned for its Greek seafood, so dishes here are mostly fish-orientated. Nominated for the best Greek food in Dubai at this year’s Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards.

Hakkasan
Trademark trellising, sultry furnishings, mood lighting, oh and that Western-leaning Cantonese cuisine we all know and love – yes, this is unmistakably Hakkasan. And it’s still as good as when it moved to dining destination The Avenues at Atlantis, The Palm back in 2018. Shortlisted for best Chinese restaurant at the Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards.

Ling Ling
Ling Ling spans across two floors of Atlantis The Royal and draws inspiration from all over Asia for its menu. From the Chinese offering, Ling Ling’s Szechuan dumplings are a must-try – served with a spicy Szechuan chilli sauce and mixed tableside. It’s worth swinging through the Japanese offering for the maki, a tuna-tastic “tuna & toro” both fresh and well-balanced. Shortlisted for the best Asian restaurant at the Time Out Dubai Restaurant Awards.
Atlantis The Royal, Crescent Rd, Palm Jumeirah (04 426 2600).
Jaleo by Jose Andres
Conceptualised by chef José Andrés, Jaleo showcases Spain’s traditional and modern tastes. Highlighting the rich regional diversity of the country’s cuisine, at Jaleo, plates are designed to be shared and enjoyed with good friends and great conversation. Putting a spin on his favourite childhood dishes, the menu will feature tapas, paellas plus a host of Spanish cheese and grape. Shortlisted for the best European food at the Time Out Restaurant Awards.

Wavehouse
Whether you’re with the family or friends, you’ll be entertained at this huge bar at Atlantis The Palm as there’s absolutely masses to do. Bowling, air hockey, arcade games, wave rider… the list goes on, Wavehouse is one of the best bars for entertainment in Dubai. And while it’s fun during the day, our advice is to leave the kids with the sitter and head along with your mates of an evening – as then you can sit on the outside terrace and sip your post-bowling victory drinks al fresco on the adults-only terrace. Shortlisted for best entertainment bar at the Time Out Dubai Nightlife Awards.
