Expect classic Lebanese dishes with an innovative twist, authentic Middle Eastern hospitality, and wow-worthy views over the Dubai Fountain…

Award-winning Lebanese restaurant, Babel, opens in Dubai Mall’s Fashion Avenue on Monday, August 28. Ahead of its opening, What’s On had a first look inside…

The 9,500-square-foot space boasts incredible views of the iconic Dubai Fountain and Downtown Dubai, which can be admired from the expansive terrace and airy indoor dining space.

Inside, there’s an open kitchen, fresh seafood display, sandstone walls, grand arches, and regal seating areas that add to the vibrant ambiance.

On the menu? Guests can expect a progressive take on the cuisine that mixes Lebanese dishes with unexpected ingredients. Think caviar smokey hummus, kebbeh nayeh, falafel truffle, smoked short ribs, must-try fresh seafood options, and baklawa pistachio.

The Beirut import first opened in Dubai back in 2018 at the beachfront destination La Mer, before closing a few years later. Now, the restaurant joins the likes of Italian restaurant Gia, London’s Greek dining concept Opso, and Mexican eatery Tulum in the Fashion Avenue extension of Dubai Mall.
