Arrive early. For the Tuesday offer, arrive early because it can get busy and service may slow considerably at peak times.
Check offers. Confirm exactly which dishes and diners a promotion covers before ordering; one Entertainer misunderstanding added DHS250 to a bill.
Allow time. If visiting during a busy service, allow extra time: one Tuesday dinner waited over an hour for its first order.
Find parking. Parking is available nearby, but you may need to walk outdoors to reach the restaurant, which is less comfortable in summer.
Try outdoors. Choose an outdoor table when the weather is pleasant for the water and boat views.
Mind the spice. If you order spicy miso, expect serious heat; one diner specifically warned that it is very spicy.

Peak Tuesday service can be very slow; one diner waited over an hour for the first order and expected more food after roughly two hours.
A customer was told the Entertainer offer covered more than it ultimately did and paid an extra DHS250.
A returning customer felt the sushi flavour had changed noticeably compared with five years earlier.
One review found the flyers and interior less inviting and cosy than on previous visits.
At least one diner found the serving size modest, with the taste only moderately fine.
The Bottom Line
Miyabi Sushi Palm Jumeirah is a contemporary Japanese restaurant known for fresh sushi, sashimi and rolls, with a broad menu that also includes dishes such as unagi don, seafood poke and lobster tartare. The all-you-can-eat sushi offer is a major draw, particularly for diners looking for generous choice and value rather than a quick, limited meal. The setting is a real part of the appeal.
Reviews mention outdoor seating beside the water, views of the harbour, dock and boats, and a relaxed atmosphere that suits a long lunch or dinner. Parking is available, though some guests have had to walk outdoors from nearby spaces; the restaurant can also be slightly tucked away, so allow a little time to locate it. Service is often described as warm, attentive and knowledgeable, but Tuesday peak periods have produced serious delays, including waits of more than an hour before the first order.
Arrive early for the Tuesday offer and confirm promotion terms before ordering: one guest was charged an additional DHS250 after receiving unclear Entertainer-offer information. Portions have also been called small by one reviewer, and a returning diner felt the sushi and interior had declined compared with earlier visits.
