What to Eat at Fusion Restaurant @Vintage Grand Hotel How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Fusion Restaurant @Vintage Grand Hotel, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.
Foods and drinks mentioned in reviews of Fusion Restaurant @Vintage Grand Hotel, ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

Tips for a Better Visit
Ask Fresh. Ask the sushi counter to prepare your order on request; one reviewer specifically liked this option.
Try Tempura. Ask for tempura at the grilling section, as one diner specifically recommended it.
Arrive Earlier. For seafood and sushi, consider arriving well before closing because one visit found them sold out nearly two hours early.
Check Brunch. Saturday brunch was described as good value, with oysters, sushi and a grill station among the highlights.
Use Live Counters. Choose the live stations when possible: reviewers enjoyed fresh pasta, noodles, Chinese dishes and grilled meats prepared to order.

Common Concerns
Inconsistent Food

Stockouts
Desirable seafood and sushi were reported to have run out well before closing on one visit.
Slow Drinks

Noise Issues
A large, shouting group reportedly disrupted dinner, with no staff intervention after complaints.
Limited Bread
A Saturday brunch review found only one soup option and a narrow bread selection.

The Bottom Line
Fusion Restaurant is a hotel buffet in Dubai Production City where the main draw is range plus live cooking. You can move between the sushi counter, Mongolian grill, seafood grill and pasta station, then finish at a dessert bar that reviewers praised for brownies, cakes and mini assortments. It works for brunch, family meals and relaxed group dinners rather than a short, single-dish stop.
The strongest reviews describe fresh food cooked to personal preferences, including sushi made on request and seafood served hot. Saturday brunch is repeatedly called good value, with oysters, sushi and grilling stations among the highlights. Families also have a children’s buffet area and a small play area, while the large dining room, warm lighting and soft music create a comfortable setting.
Quality has not been completely consistent. Some diners found buffet food cold and dry, reported undercooked or overcooked dishes, or said drinks arrived late. Another review found desirable seafood and sushi gone almost two hours before closing, so earlier arrival is sensible if those are your priorities.
A noisy group also disrupted one dinner, with no effective staff intervention. Past customer-reported prices include AED 99 for a dinner buffet and AED 150 per person for an iftar buffet before vouchers; these should not be treated as current rates.
