Tabu Dubai

Tabu is on the top floor of the St Regis in Business Bay. It sits a fifteen-minute walk from the Burj Khalifa, placing it firmly within the dense cluster of towers that define the city’s skyline.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the real draw is its orientation. While most dining in the immediate vicinity leans heavily into the standard high-rise aesthetic, Tabu brings a distinct South American and Argentinian focus to its modern menu. You choose this place over its neighbours for that precise stylistic friction: it offers a specific, grounded culinary identity that is far more interesting than the generic upscale dining options scattered along the same stretch of Downtown. It feels deliberate, providing a sharp contrast to the more predictable, tourist-heavy venues located closer to the Dubai Mall.
