The Bottom Line

Bā – Boldly Asian is a stylish pan-Asian restaurant in Palm Jumeirah, inside Fairmont The Palm. It suits a lively dinner, a celebration or an evening brunch, with fresh sushi, dishes such as chicken pad see ew and mapo tofu, and a strong focus on presentation. The Friday and Saturday brunch is the clearest draw for groups: reviews describe generous portions, sushi, ribs, seabass and a dessert platter featuring pandan panna cotta.

The room is colourful and carefully decorated, with beach or Dubai Marina views mentioned by reviewers. DJ sets and throwback 1980s and 1990s music create more of a lounge-party atmosphere than a quiet restaurant. That can work brilliantly for a birthday or night out, but several guests found the music too loud for conversation.

Book ahead for busy evenings and arrive hungry for brunch. Valet parking at the hotel is convenient. Families can visit Sunday to Thursday before 9pm, when children are allowed and a children’s menu is available; note that the restaurant is currently closed on Mondays.

Prices lean premium for à la carte dining. Brunch packages were reported from AED 250, while a sushi package was reported at AED 190. Service is often warm and attentive, though slow waits and one serious air-conditioning complaint are worth keeping in mind.
