Pier Chic: Discover Dubai’s Dreamiest Spot For The Ultimate Date-Night
The OG of Dubai dining, Pierchic lets you savour award-winning Italian food surrounded by azure waters even in summer. Take a walk down the private pier to find out more…
It is ironic that in a city perched alongside pristine waters, there aren’t many opportunities to fully soak in the views throughout the year. That’s what makes Pierchic so special – especially during the summer when terraces shutter, and outdoor venues shut up shop; Pierchic remains that perfect glass-encased, cool space, from which lets you almost feel like you are levitating over the Arabian Gulf.
The only restaurant to stand 150 metres out to sea, Pierchic has seen more proposals and picture-perfect Instagram posts than most since it opened in 2004. Located within the Madinat Jumeirah’s, Jumeirah Al Qasr, Pierchic is arguably the most iconic restaurant in the city. With 360 degree views of the Gulf and best views of Jumeirah Burj Al Arab, tourists and locals flock to savour Italian fare meticulously made by Head Chef, Beatrice Segoni. Recently refurbished, the restaurant welcomes guests throughout the summer with opulent offers for all occasions throughout the week.
For those dining during the day, the Chic Lunch is made up of a set menu featuring an array of iconic Italian dishes. Served from throughout the week, the set-menu highlights fresh, seasonal ingredients where diners can enjoy starters like creamy burrata, traditional panzanella, or rich fegatini di pollo. Main courses include comforting classics such as fusilli pesto and fi letto di branzino al cartoccio, while desserts like tiramisu and panna cotta al frutti di bosco round out the experience. Perfect for a casual yet elegant midday escape for those on holiday or an incredibly impressive business lunch guaranteed to inspire.
Sundays are reserved for La Domenica Italiana, a heartwarming family-style lunch filled with the rich flavours of Italy. Guests are treated to an abundant spread featuring dishes like lemon chicken with crunchy spinach, homemade gnocchetti alla sorrentina, and tortelli with duck ragout. The immersive experience is elevated by Italian music that brings the spirit of Italy to life through a soulful celebration of food and togetherness in a stunning seaside setting.
Whether you choose to enjoy a long lunch with friends, aperitivo with breath-taking views of the Jumeirah Burj Al Arab or dinner in the most dreamy spot in Dubai, Pierchic is, and will always be, the most stunning spot in the Emirates to eat, drink and be fabulous.
