"Saadiyat Beach Club’s illustrious pool and beachside Friday brunch begs the question: Why aren't all brunches this fabulous? A sun-shaded terrace, air-conditioned indoor dining room, and large cabanas provide three options for where to sit, and a delectable triumvirate of barbecue, seafood, and cheese dominate the menu. There’s no going wrong with the Wagyu beef burger, tandoor-marinated chicken, or fresh seasonal seafood spread. The fruit-forward desserts are a fresh, sweet final note. When you're done eating, stick around and hang out on the beach." - Jenna Scatena
