Fodor's Expert Review Vu's

Come here for incomparable bird's-eye views of Dubai through sheer glass walls that seem to float on a monumental metal skeleton—and the food is something special too. Chef James Viles brings his Australian fusion expertise to the impeccable menu. Fresh seafood meets delicate Thai spices, and Mediterranean classics take a New World twist in dishes such as snow-crab ice cream. These adventurous dishes have been well received by the discerning clientele. But even though the food is excellent, it's still difficult to take your eyes off the scenery.
