                      The whole experience was exemplary. There had been a mix up with a promotion, that had been issued early, however the management still honoured the promotion. The food was amazing, having chosen the Scallops, Lobster Tagliatelle & Wagu Beef Steak. All were outstanding. You must opt for the Tiramisu - it's an experience you cannot miss. The wine selection is extensive and the prices for the venue are very reasonable starting at just over AED200 a bottle, but a good choice by the glass.

                      The Food was not spectecular. It dont smells good. I was very sad to pay so much money for that. On an Aida Ship at Rossini the kitchen is thousand times better.

                      The table did not have cutlery. One of us found the menu with the QR. The other asked for a printed catalog which never came. The food was all bad. The bread was fine.

                      Food - overall good to v. good. Careful with some orders as portions vary from unnecessarily huge (350 gms. or 3/4 lbs. burrata) to minuscule (maybe 100 gms. ravioli entre). Service - if outside on the terrace (actually the only place you want to be seated), careful if you are a non-smoker or as in my case allergic (asthma) to smoke. They will move you not the chain smokers. I found this to be rather disturbing at a Waldolf Astoria hotel/resort, and in my opinion a MAJOR handicap to this property in an otherwise extremely avant-garde tourist spot as Dubai. Many/thousands of restaurants in Dubai - avoid this one if a non-smoker.
