Tuck into the new menu at The Grill

Forgoing the usual masculine connotations of dark wood and leather furnishings associated with the steakhouse environment, The Grill is an elegant affair boasting a modern design that draws attention to the central show kitchen. The venue has recently launched an enticing new menu featuring Wagyu beef tartare, charred Spanish octopus, peanut butter foie gras sandwich and crispy veal sweetbreads. When it comes to the premium cuts of meat, you can expect grain and grass-fed beef from Argentina, Australia and the USA, accompanied by tempting sides such as triple-cooked chips and mac n’ cheese. There’s even a steak and grape degustation featuring three tenderloin cuts for a very reasonable AED 275 per person.
