The Good Stuff
Second Serving
The two-round format gives diners a further serving of steak and fries, included in the meal price.
Fresh Starter
The meal begins with a walnut salad, bread and butter; reviewers describe the salad as fresh and well dressed.
Outdoor Seating
The covered outdoor area remains comfortable in summer and is described as cozy, with some tables offering a Business Bay view.
Warm Service
Many reviews describe the team as welcoming, attentive and polite, including thoughtful birthday help and occasion-focused service.
French Atmosphere
The refined but comfortable setting gives the meal a Parisian bistro feel and works for dates, families and celebrations.
Desserts
Profiteroles, crème brûlée and seasonal desserts receive positive mentions, with profiteroles a reliable finish after the steak.
Tips for a Better Visit
Ask Early. Ask how the two-round serving works when ordering; one diner only discovered the included second portion after seeing other tables receive it.
Plan Waiting. Allow extra time at busy periods or visit off-peak, as reviews mention queues and delays between courses.
Check Parking. Budget for parking and validate the valet ticket if using it; one review records AED 20, while another reports AED 50 for over an hour.
Clarify Menu. The concept has only one main option, so ask about steak doneness, portions and what is included before agreeing to the meal.
Choose Seating. Outdoor tables can be pleasant and covered, but one lunch had persistent flies; choose indoors if that would bother you.

The Bottom Line
Le Relais de l’Entrecôte Dubai is a French steakhouse in Business Bay centred on one recognisable meal: walnut salad with bread and butter, followed by sliced steak, signature sauce and fries served in two rounds. The focused format works well if you are specifically craving steak frites rather than browsing a broad menu. The sauce and fries are the recurring highlights, while the second serving makes the meal feel more substantial.
The setting is polished but relaxed, with a Parisian bistro feel that reviewers associate with date nights, family meals and birthdays. Covered outdoor seating is available, and one review mentions a Burj Khalifa view from outside. Staff are frequently described as warm and attentive, although service has not been equally smooth every time.
That inconsistency is the main caveat. Some diners experienced slow second servings or delays between courses, and a few recent return visits reported thinner, chewy or disappointing steak. Portion size and value also divide opinion: one guest felt the meat looked like half a steak per person, while others considered the two rounds good value.
Check the menu format when seated, allow time during busy periods and confirm parking costs; valet and building parking are charged separately. Desserts such as profiteroles, crème brûlée and seasonal specials are worth leaving room for.
