Food in Dubai
The best way to experience Dubai is through your stomach. In my 12 years of stay in Dubai, 
I have come across food of almost all nationalities in Dubai. Dubai is a melting pot of literally hundreds of nationalities and hence hundreds of cuisines as well. Depending on your budget, likes and dislikes you can get the best of Cheap eats and/or fine dining in Dubai without compromising on quality.
Cheap eats and Fine dining:
At the top end is five-star cuisine of the highest order. British chefs Gary Rhodes and Gordon Ramsay have culinary outposts in the Grosvenor House Hotel and the Hilton Dubai Creek, respectively, both offering Michelin star–courting cuisine. They are joined at the top of the tree by the excellent Chinese restaurant Noble House in the Raffles Hotel. In any one of these gilt-edged places you’ll sample sensational fare in a high-end setting surrounded by Emiratis and those who have benefited most from Dubai’s economic boom, all paying about AED 500 ($140) per person for the privilege.
On the other end of the social spectrum lies Al Dhiyafah Road, Dubai’s cheap-eats street. Here restaurants catering to the city’s less affluent residents spill out onto the sidewalk so you can people-watch while feasting on food from Lebanon, Iran and the Indian subcontinent. On the northern end of the street lies Sidra, with zesty salads and a gut-busting mixed grill that gives you a taste of the Levant. On the other end of Al Dhiyafah Road, Pars Iranian Kitchen dishes out succulent lamb and fresh seafood straight from its outdoor grill. Opposite Pars (although you’ll have to navigate six lanes of highway traffic to get there) is Pakistani spice-peddler Ravi Restaurant, one of the city’s best regarded, if least presentable, curry houses.
Due to licensing laws, restaurants outside hotels can’t serve alcohol, but if you’re paying less than $25 for a meal for two it’s hard to quibble.
My Recommendation for Food in Dubai
When you are in Dubai, eat as the arabs eat, i.e. the amazing Arabic food. Checkout anyone of these 
arabic restaurants in the order they are listed:
- Best of all is the ‘Aroos Damascus’ in Deira Dubai, at the end of Muraggabat Street, across Marks and Spencer. They have mostly Syrian cuisine.
- ‘Al Mallah restaurant’ on Al Diyafah street – Lebanese cuisine.
- ‘Automatic Bakery’ on the old Jumeirah road, just before Safa Park on your right – Lebanese cuisine.
None of the ‘cheap eats’ restaurants serve alcohol, but you will only find the best local flavors in non-alcoholic restaurants in UAE.
