Your ultimate guide to eating and drinking in Dubai Hills Business Park

Dubai, make way for a new foodie hotspot… 

On our radar thanks to the recent influx of restaurant, cafe, and bar openings, Dubai Hills is also home to a record-breaking indoor roller coaster, a sprawling golf course, Dubai Hills Mall, and an incredible outdoor park.

Dubbed “the new DIFC”, Dubai Hills Business Park is becoming a popular place to visit thanks to some of the coolest new restaurant openings in the city. Whether you live in Dubai Hills or have to travel to get there, trust us when we say, it’s worth the journey.

From neighbourhood pubs to Michelin-star fine dining, here’s where to eat and drink in Dubai Hills Business Park: 

Avatara

Last month, Michelin Star Avatara said farewell to its spot in voco Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road, and is now welcoming diners at a beautiful new dining room at Dubai Hills Business Park. Avatara is the first and only entirely vegetarian fine dining experience in Dubai, curating soulful Indian cuisine inspired by simple seasonal ingredients, with a focus on pure, clean, and natural produce. The 16-course tasting menu is served across two seatings per evening 6pm and 9pm, as well as Sunday lunch.

DUO Gastrobar

DUO is known for its reasonable prices, quality ingredients, delicious signature cocktails, and lively atmosphere. The menu blends modern European cuisine, with a slight touch of Asia. Chef Dmitry Blinov is bringing his 40 best dishes from DUO Band’s restaurants to the Dubai Hills outpost including the tuna ceviche (Dhs65), broccoli pate (Dhs35), and oxtail pie with taleggio (Dhs75).

Reif Japanese Kushiyaki

Reif Othaman licensed restaurant

Four years since opening Reif Japanese Kushiyaki in Dar Wasl, chef Reif has added a second restaurant to his portfolio. The second Reif Japanese Kushiyaki, located at Dubai Hills Business Park, is a grown-up iteration of the first. The 118-seater homegrown Reif Japanese Kushiyaki restaurant offers a more extensive menu than the original Dar Wasl location, while still keeping Reif’s unique cooking approach. Escargot takoyaki, otoro with satsuma Wagyu steamed bun, and black cod ramen are among the signature dishes, with prices ranging from Dhs78 to Dhs220. The decor also differs from the flagship restaurant with an open-plan kitchen, high table seating, bar lounge, and a 12-seater private dining pod. Another big difference between Dar Wasl and Dubai Hills is that the latter is licensed, meaning the first area of the restaurant is dedicated to a bar, serving up an array of playfully named Japanese cocktails, alongside all the usual wines and beers.

Reif Japanese Kushiyaki, Dubai Hills Business Park, Building 3, 12pm to 3pm and 6pm to 12am daily. Tel: (0)4 255 5142, reifkushiyaki.com

If you’re looking for a casual eatery to catch up with friends or enjoy quality food with your closest ones, unconventional Korean BBQ, Hoe Lee Kow is well worth a trip. Venturing into a new cuisine, chef Reif Othman was inspired by his years of travel and love for Korean BBQ. Located in Dubai Hills Business Park 4, the restaurant is cosy and minimalistic with playful nods to Korean culture including traditional masks, clothing, and decorative fans. There’s also a sleek (licensed) bar serving thirst-quenching cocktails that will make you say hoe lee kow. Onto the food, to start we recommend the Jeju scallops (Dhs96), Reif fried chicken (Dhs48), and corn croquettes (Dhs46). Next up, the grilled ori gogi (Dhs168) is a show-stopper dish with Irish duck breast served in an unconventional Korean BBQ style.
