At.mosphere
At.mosphere is a lounge in Dubai and one of the few restaurants in the world that can boast of being situated on the 122nd floor of the most popular sky piece there is—the Burj Khalifa. The interior design is as impressive as the location, created with a sophisticated mix of contemporary and classic. Rich woods, luxurious leather seating, and ambient lighting contribute to creating an intimate, elegant setting perfect for a special occasion.

Pai Thai
Accessible only by boat, a dinner at Pai Thai would be an exclusive experience.

A secret revolving around rich, dark wood, intricate works in the carvings, and dim light, it is luscious, intimate, and romantic. Portions of the outdoor terrace look out on a panoramic backdrop of the Madinat waterways, ensuring that Pai Thai remains one of the most picturesque dining spots in Dubai.

Roberto’s
This Italian ristorante in DIFC is all about style and sophistication. In their interiors, the architects that did the job, from London, have put a sense of modernity against classic Italian detailing. Their design is open, almost waverly structured on the ceiling, while the floor-to-ceiling windows already let in so much light. Marble, leather, and warmth of wood tones come together as a luxurious touch, fully encased within select pieces of art and custom furnishings, to make Roberto’s voguish: an experience in itself.
