Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6

Book Outdoors. Request the terrace if the fountain show and Burj Khalifa view are your priority; one family had specifically booked outside for that reason.

Check Weather. For terrace dining, check the evening temperature and ask about heaters or a shawl, as a reviewer found the outdoor seating cold and windy.

The Bottom Line

Armani/Hashi is a Japanese restaurant and lounge in Downtown Dubai, inside the Armani Hotel beside the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Fountain. The terrace is the main draw: you can dine outdoors while watching the fountain show and the building’s light show. It works especially well for a birthday, anniversary or polished dinner where the setting matters as much as the food.

The menu has plenty of memorable orders. Black cod is repeatedly singled out, including a version described as perfectly glazed and buttery soft. Other reviews mention creative fresh sushi, A5 sushi, sea urchin, wild eel and the Robata Yuan - yaki salmon.

Tasting menus provide a varied, chef-led way to explore the kitchen, while cocktails, mocktails and shisha extend the evening beyond the meal. Service is usually described as attentive, warm and professional, and families have noted a well-maintained diaper-changing room. Complimentary valet parking is another convenience, though weekend evening traffic can be difficult.

Expect premium pricing, and consider the conditions before choosing the terrace: one visit found it cold and windy, while another reported banquet noise next door. A sunset reservation is a useful choice for golden-hour views and photographs.
