City Social, Dubai Marina
When asked, Jason Atherton said “...guests were happy, but I knew I could give Dubai more.” about Marina Social. With City Social - he’s done more. One could even possibly argue he’s done all you could ever wish for. Come here for dinner, stay for drinks, and you may never want to leave.
🎷 8/8: A downright masterstroke of good taste, the bar - spanning over seven meters with a black marble countertop - is both grandiose and intimate at the same time. Double - no, triple - height ceiling adds to the feeling of someone wanting to make an impression. A worthy playlist accentuates the attention to detail. 🥃 6/8: A less elaborate cocktail menu (percase more focused on the aperitif seeking crowd) than the upstairs sibling 7 Tales. But opting for the classics is always a good choice, and so here too. 👨🔬 7/8: A lineup of skilled bartenders, with the hospitality celebutante Orri Pall as the patriarch. Again, they do it well, damn well. 🧊 7/8: Clear ice, big cubes, ice stamp - the sub zero ice knowledge of the Dubai F&B scene is definitely going in the right direction.
If you get the opportunity to visit City Social, definitely go for the food - no matter where you are seated, you will be awed by the views, the heed of the minute details and the presentation of the food - which by the way, of course, is delicious. If you then ask nicely, they may grant you the full tour and after that it’s a fact: This place is aiming towards the very top. Three stars, here we go! From a cocktail bar perspective, it’s a majestic feeling looking up the ceiling, sipping your Dirty Martini, and looking at the staff performing the fast paced waltz of a bar. Sure, there are wishes to be fulfilled, but looking at this from beginning to end - this is stellar.

Read moreI recently had the pleasure of dining at City Social, and I must say, it was an experience that exceeded all expectations. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel truly special.
One of the most memorable aspects of our visit was the exceptional service we received. Not only were the staff attentive and courteous, but they also went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary restrictions. Despite my friend allergy to nuts and shellfish, they ensured that every dish was prepared safely and without any risk of cross-contamination.
Moreover, the surprise gesture of presenting us with a cake that was nut-free and beautifully adorned with flowers was truly touching. It showed a level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail that is rare to find in today's dining establishments.
The ambiance of the restaurant was equally delightful, with elegant decor and a cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The attention to detail extended to every aspect of our dining experience, from the impeccable presentation of the dishes to the knowledgeable recommendations from our server.
Overall, I cannot recommend City Social highly enough. Whether you're looking for a special night out or simply craving exceptional cuisine and hospitality, this establishment truly delivers. I look forward to returning soon to indulge in another unforgettable...
