11 Romantic Spots for Valentine’s Day Dinner in Dubai (2026)

Valentine’s Day falls on Saturday this year so if you’re planning a sunset table, a skyline view, or an ultra-special tasting menu, it’s worth booking early. Here are 11 Dubai picks for a memorable date night, whether you want rooftop glamour, waterfront vibes, underwater dining, or dinner under the desert stars.

1) Il Ristorante – Niko Romito (Bvlgari Resort Dubai, Jumeira Bay)

For couples who love polished fine dining, this is a top-tier choice: an elegant Italian experience at the Bvlgari Resort, awarded two MICHELIN stars (multiple consecutive years since 2022).

2) CÉ LA VI Dubai (Address Sky View, Downtown)

A rooftop made for couples who love a city-lights atmosphere, think terrace views, upbeat energy, and a “dress up and make a night of it” feel on Level 54 at Address Sky View.

3) Thiptara (Palace Downtown)

For classic romance (and a very Dubai backdrop), Thiptara is right by Burj Lake with front-row Dubai Fountain views, serving elegant Thai cuisine that suits a slow, candlelit dinner.

4) Pierchic (Jumeirah Al Qasr, Madinat Jumeirah)

Over-water dining is a Valentine’s cheat code. Pierchic is a long-time favorite for romantic, sea-adjacent Italian dining, and it’s still one of the city’s most “proposal-friendly” settings.

5) Ossiano (Atlantis The Palm)

If you want pure wow-factor: Ossiano is the iconic underwater-style dining experience at Atlantis The Palm, complete with aquarium views and a MICHELIN-starred fine-dining approach.

6) At.Mosphere (Burj Khalifa)

If you want “once-in-a-lifetime” romance, go big: At.Mosphere sits on the 122nd floor of Burj Khalifa with a high-lux vibe and the kind of views that do half the flirting for you.

7) 101 Dining, Lounge & Bar (One&Only The Palm)

A dreamy pick for golden hour: 101 delivers water’s-edge glamour with marina views and an atmosphere that feels like a mini getaway—without leaving Dubai.

8) Eauzone (One&Only Royal Mirage)

This one is all about ambience: palms, reflecting pools, beachside serenity, and sunset views, paired with Pan-Asian flavours—ideal if you want romance that’s calm, not clubby.

9) Pai Thai (Jumeirah Al Qasr, Madinat Jumeirah)

Arrive like you’re in a movie: Pai Thai is known for its setting along the resort’s waterways and its award-winning Thai dining—a great “something different” alternative to Downtown.

10) Al Hadheerah (Bab Al Shams)

For a Valentine’s that feels like a story: head to the desert for open-air dining under the stars with Middle Eastern cuisine and live entertainment at Bab Al Shams.

11) Blue Jade (The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai – JBR)

If you want a beach-area dinner with a refined feel, Blue Jade brings a Pan-Asian menu plus an al fresco terrace overlooking gardens and the shoreline—great for a post-dinner stroll.
