The Best Spots for Burgers in Dubai

Slab – mercato is tucked inside Dubai’s Mercato Mall but offers a dining experience that feels far from a typical mall restaurant. It’s led by a skilled American Peruvian chef who keeps the menu fresh with regular updates and modern options. The setting is laid-back, and prices are kept reasonable for those looking to drop by often.

Excellent food by a fantastic chef. It’s in a mall but is far from a “mall restaurant”.

Flavourful Abundance 3 Fils holds the title of Best Restaurant in Middle East & North Africa 2022 and after just one visit you’ll understand why. This casual and reasonably priced dining spot overlooks the Jumeirah Fishing Harbour and it’s, arguably, one of the most popular restaurants in Dubai (with good reason, of course). The restaurant offers unique community style dining with large shared tables. You can look forward to a menu selection of Japanese influenced dishes. Each and every dish is loaded with flavour to impress. The ‘Charcoal’ surprise is one of their signature dishes that’s not to be missed; a secret dish that will not only keep you guessing but wanting more too. Another classic 3 Fils dish is their seaweed salad which boasts sweet apple and crunchy walnuts. And of course, you can’t go wrong with the mouth-watering 3 Fils wagyu truffle burger; simply superb. Great food, great service and a great setting; you don’t want to miss out on 3 Fils when visiting Dubai.

Seriously popular burger spot in Dubai with a seasonal rotating menu (such as a wagyu beef with date caramelised onions) and some favourite stalewarts. Get the fried High Chicken, Millionare’s High and The Smokey. Casual dining for those moments when you want to treat yourself. Delivery available.

Teible is at its best when drawing big flavours out of local ingredients. Teible recently opened focusing on farm to table, sustainably sourced local ingredients. It’s best dishes are those bold, “go for it” courses layering flavours — like the garum steak tartare with manchego, 80 day fermented local beef garum burger or the thousand dates mille-feuille with fresh fig brûlée. This is a restaurant to watch in Dubai.
