Unwinding after a long, meeting-filled day usually occurs at pared-back bars or a relaxed restaurant over dinner. That is, until Salmon Guru burst onto the Dubai dining scene. Brought to the city from Madrid by founder Diego Cabrera, Salmon Guru is nestled in The Opus by Omniyat in Business Bay and is a whimsical, mixology-led experience unlike any other.
The space is splashed with tongue-in-cheek decor, neon signage, comic book-inspired illustrations and exposed brick, but don't let the exuberant surrounds fool you. The meticulously crafted menu is serious (and seriously delicious). After all, the award-winning concoctions have landed the Madrid outpost on the World's Best Bars list multiple years running.
This year, Salmon Guru is adding more libations to its award-winning menu, including Beirut Basil Bash and Tomatillo. Mirroring the creative recipes, Salmon Guru's beverages come in equally whimsical vessels, ranging from unfurling lotus flowers to a multi-coloured tree frog. Though renowned for its cocktails, the restaurant's Asian-fusion culinary offerings are definitely not second best; the reworked menu features new additions of seabass nigiri, Thai salad with ramen noodles, smoked picanha tataki brushed with umami oil and a tandoori-marinated matured beef kofta, all perfect for sharing.
If great food, innovative cocktails and a vibrant atmosphere are your cup of tea, then count Salmon Guru your new regular. Book Now
