Shimmers

We had the best visit to Shimmers just before it closed. First time visit as we have just moved to Dubai. We were looked after by Matias, service from the floor staff was exceptional and the food was gorgeous. We booked the sunset session and had the best time. Will definitely return again - especially when family come over to visit as it was such a memorable experience🤍

The Shimmers is located on a private beach, which can only be accessed by reservation. It is cozy, offers plenty of seating and a beautiful view of the sea and Burj al Arab. Even though we had a reservation for the Cabana, we got a seat in the restaurant, which we accepted since it was full. The selection is not very large, but you will for sure find something, as they offer salad, pasta, meat, etc. I found the food very tasty, but the price-performance ratio a little more expensive. The service staff were always very friendly. Unfortunately we were not served at all for about 30-40 minutes towards the end, even though we had already finished everything.

This place is definitely magical, the atmosphere and the view is a spectacle. The food was amazing, the service was a bit slow and they forgot to bring something I ordered, that could definitely be improved but overall I recommend this place 100% worth going and I think it is a must. I would come back a thousand times!

I had a fantastic experience at SHIMMERS in Dubai. The location is superb, offering a stunning setting that elevates the dining experience. The food was simply amazing—every dish was a delight! The only downside was the predominance of Russian being spoken, which was noticeable, but it didn’t detract from the overall exceptional experience. Highly recommend this restaurant for its culinary excellence and ambiance.

This restaurant offers a stunning beachfront view with the iconic Burj Al Arab in the background. The live music and remixes created a fantastic atmosphere, making the evening even more memorable. It was a cold night, but thankfully, they had fire pits near most tables, adding warmth and coziness to the experience. Probably we were lucky to have Sacha, a young, talented, and highly professional employee who greatly enhanced our experience. Her honest recommendations helped us choose dishes that we truly enjoyed. For starters, everything was good, but the fish dishes and especially the Basil Orzo (which looks like rice but is actually a type of Greek pasta) were exceptional. Initially, we didn’t plan to order desserts, but Sacha recommended two of her favorites: -Greek Yogurt Ice Cream with caramelized walnuts and honey *Peanut & Vanilla Millefeuille We took them both, and let’s just say… the plates were completely cleaned 🧽😂 As always, I’ve added photos of the menu and the dishes we had.

Enjoy the delicious food and unforgettable sunset at Shimmers Dubai! This trendy restaurant is in high demand, so book your table in advance. Service can be a little slow due to the crowds.

Great vibes, beachy evening dinner, unfortunately, it was the last night of the season as it now closes till September as the temperatures are too hot. Great views and lovely food. And I thought it wasn't too expensive for 4 people for Dubia including a bottle whispering Angel cocktail and beer, £550.00. Thank you Shimmers see you next time.

Visited Shimmers as heard alot of good reviews about it. Bookee for sunset time. The staff were very welcoming and service was excellent. The atmosphere and ambiance were amazing. Amazing views of the Arabian Gulf and Burj al Arab. As for the food it was good but would not say it was overly amazing. I personally think the hype is for the views and location really. Overall kt was decent.
