"Arriving in DIFC with multiple concepts under one roof, I enjoyed The Guild’s ambitious, sprawling space where a champagne bar and patisserie (The Nurseries), seafood-focused Rockpool with a living rockpool display, and The Salon’s white-clothed dining under crystal chandeliers coexist. The menus prioritize quality ingredients—from wood-fired prime cuts in The Salon to shellfish and oysters in Rockpool—and the venue transitions from breakfast and cocktails to late-night piano-lounge drinks with a recently added impressive Sunday roast." - Claudia de Brito, Sophie Prideaux
