LION in the Sun
Sixty-two floors up, LION manages the unusual trick of feeling dramatic without behaving like a viewing platform with dinner attached. The skyline does the obvious work; open-fire Mediterranean plates, warm lighting and a bar built for lingering handle the rest.
Family-friendly
What to expect
- 01Mediterranean cooking centred on an open-fire kitchen
- 02A 62nd-floor dining room and open-air terrace
- 03Burj Khalifa and Downtown skyline views
“Order for the table: start with handmade pasta or paella, then let the open-fire kitchen make the case for grilled lobster, king crab or one of the aged cuts.”
“Book the terrace side around sunset and allow time for the hotel arrival. This is a smart-casual, big-night booking—one drink at the bar can very easily become the rest of the evening.”
