This is the ultimate theatrical dining experience in the UAE. Located deep in the desert, the restaurant is designed like an ancient Arabic fort. The camel is slow-roasted for hours in traditional pits, resulting in meat that literally falls off the bone, served amidst a backdrop of live horse shows and camel caravans.

Al Fanar Restaurant & Cafe
Dubai Festival City
4.4 / 5
While they serve individual portions rather than the whole animal, Al Fanar is the gold standard for consistent, high-quality Emirati cuisine. The restaurant is a living museum of 1960s Dubai, and their camel meat is praised for being tender and free of the 'gaminess' often associated with the protein.
