Table setting at Abd el Wahab Dubai with appetizers and a refreshing drink.

Abd el Wahab Dubai

Abd el Wahab sits on the third level of Souk Al Bahar. The kitchen specializes in Lebanese and Middle Eastern grills, and the room runs smart, favoring a formal tone over the casual setups found elsewhere in the building. It is a five-minute walk from the Burj Khalifa.

The restaurant draws a loyal following, reflected in a 4.81 rating across more than 5,000 reviews. While neighboring venues in the Burj Khalifa orbit cater to the high-turnover crowds of The Dubai Mall, this dining room offers a steadier pace. It is an expensive choice, but the price buys a sense of focus in an area dominated by retail foot traffic. If you seek a terrace that does not come with the frantic energy of a shopping destination, this is the superior option.
