Ossiano opened at Atlantis The Palm in 2008 as one of the world's few underwater fine dining restaurants, positioned alongside the Ambassador Lagoon, an aquarium housing 65,000 marine creatures including sharks, stingrays, and hundreds of fish species visible through floor-to-ceiling windows from every table. The restaurant holds one Michelin star in the 2025 Michelin Guide Dubai, ranks No. 5 in Middle East & North Africa's 50 Best Restaurants 2025, and holds three toques from Gault&Millau UAE. In 2025, Executive Chef Rémy Marquignon took over the kitchen, introducing a produce-led direction built on French technique and ingredient simplicity. The 2026 menu is a nine-course tasting experience priced at AED 1,250 per person for food only, with wine pairing bringing the total to approximately AED 2,095 to 2,345 per person.
Guests descend via a marble spiral staircase into the dining room, where the aquarium surrounds the space on multiple sides, creating a setting that functions simultaneously as a restaurant and as a sensory environment defined by the constant movement of marine life. The pace is unhurried and the format is deliberate, with each course designed as a distinct moment within a larger narrative structure. The service is formally structured, discreet, and attentive without being intrusive. The venue is consistently described across reviews as the definitive Dubai destination for milestone celebrations and occasions that require a setting with no equivalent. Reservations must be made weeks or months in advance, particularly for weekend evenings and prime time slots.
The 2026 tasting menu covers nine courses under Chef Rémy Marquignon's produce-led direction, with dishes including oyster shell biscuit, King Crab with lobster chawanmushi, binchotan-smoked eggplant, and a main course choice between wild brill and A5 Wagyu. Each course incorporates a degree of tableside theatricality consistent with the Ossiano format across its full history. A complete vegetarian tasting menu is available at the same price point. Dietary requirements including allergies, gluten-free, and other restrictions are accommodated when communicated at the time of booking. The wine pairing program is expertly curated to complement the progression of the tasting menu, with an extensive list of premium labels available by the glass and bottle.
