CÉ LA VI

Food was really good and the overall vibe was great. If I may share a small comment, the service didn’t quite meet my expectations. I added a note during the reservation to prepare something special since my partner was celebrating his birthday and it was also our anniversary. We had already finished our mains, and a few minutes passed where I felt a bit worried because I was expecting a small birthday gesture, like a complimentary dessert with a candle. We kept waiting until my partner eventually asked for the bill, and that’s when I had to remind the staff about the birthday request. It finally arrived after about 15 minutes, but at that point it felt a little awkward. Overall, the food was excellent, especially the tempura maki, which had a really lovely texture and flavor. I would definitely come back again, but probably not when celebrating an important occasion.

Upscale restaurant lounge atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating, has great view of the skyline in the outdoor seating but also great lighting inside as well and interior design. The service staff is very attentive and welcoming. Sabrina was especially great to have as a server. The food itself is good as well, a smaller selection of main type entrees like steak and fish, asian fusion appetizers, then a little bit more variety with the sushi. The presentation of the food is excellent and the portions are good sized. Overall a great time. The only real downside is the bathroom is a different level so you have to leave the restaurant and go down the stairs or an elevator which can take a few minutes. Otherwise highly recommended.

Exceptional Experience at CE LA VI We had an absolutely wonderful experience, made truly special by Nitin and Baby. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail were outstanding from start to finish. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, making us feel genuinely welcomed and well taken care of. The service was seamless, thoughtful, and delivered with a smile, which elevated the entire experience. Combined with the stunning views and impeccable ambiance, it was an unforgettable visit. A huge thank you to Nitin and Baby for their excellence and exceptional hospitality. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend CE LA VI to anyone looking for top-tier service and an amazing experience. 🌟✨

Saturday Brunch: Great selection and huge portion of dishes, on top of that they are delicious. The drink selection is good too, our drinks were always replenished. The welcome host are very polite, thr check in is quick. Friendly waiters, Sachit was very attentive, hard working and polite. The music selection is very good, sadly ut is more a sit down brunch. Not a party one. We had our table outside, it became a bit hot - sun right on my head, thats a bit of a downside. To go to the washroom- one level down with a lift is a bit inconvenient. Besides these, a great brunch with gorgeous views!

Second visit for a business lunch. I came back because of the great first impression from my visit in 2023 earlier and convinced my mate to join me as she works nearby. While the service was excellent, the food from the starter to dessert, this time felt more average compared to before. Probably I should likely try dinner rather than lunch. Thanks, team for looking after well.

It was definitely worth the 250AED to reserve a table for two. We were right next to the outside glass wall with a front row seat of the Burj Khalifa. Food was excellent as was the service (especially Jun!)with all staff being friendly and accommodating.

Our second visit to CÉ LA VI Dubai, unfortunately, was a complete disappointment. We were celebrating our anniversary, expecting a beautiful evening with the level of service this restaurant claims to offer. Sadly, the reality was very different. We saw our waiter only once — when he took our order. After that, he disappeared for the rest of the evening. Other waiters approached us randomly, but none of them understood our order or could help us properly. At least the salad and appetizers were served on time, and that was, unfortunately, the only positive moment. We waited over an hour for the main courses. The chicken fillet was bland, barely warm, and served on a cold plate. The fish/steak we ordered was completely cold — both the dish itself and the plate. It was simply inedible. To even find out what was happening with our order, we had to stop two different waiters ourselves, since our assigned waiter never returned. We did raise our concerns about the food quality, but by then the damage was already done. A restaurant of this level cannot afford such service. What makes it even more disappointing is that during our previous visit, the service was much better, which is why we chose to come back — especially for such a special occasion. In the end, half of our celebration was ruined by this experience. Sadly, the actual service did not meet the expectations set by the restaurant’s reputation.

One of the nicest places I have ever visited. The terrace area is magical, with an incredible view at night. The service was excellent and everyone who served us was very polite. The food more than deserves the awards displayed at the entrance before you take the elevator to the 54th floor. Also, if you go in the evening, you can watch the fountain show in front of the Burj Khalifa.I will definitely visit again.
