The Tomahawk arrived with a strong char while staying juicy and tender inside.
Guests can choose their steak knife, with the history of each knife adding a distinctive ritual to the meal.
The kitchen accommodated one sirloin well done and a Tomahawk split between well done and medium rare.
Several sauces and butters can be tried with the steak rather than relying on one standard accompaniment.
Reviews describe substantial portions, including sides that work well for sharing.
The wine selection includes choices that reviewers found easy to pair with steak.
Tables are spaced apart and the music is kept low enough for conversation.
Some visits include a live singer or jazz band, adding entertainment without dominating the meal.
Confirm doneness. Repeat your preferred doneness when ordering and check the steak when it arrives, as one guest received well-done meat after requesting medium well.
Share sides. Order sides for the table rather than one per person; reviews describe portions as generous.
Try sauces. Ask to sample different sauces or butters with the steak; one reviewer tried five sauces without an extra charge.
Use valet. If you are driving to Atlantis Hotel, reviews report free valet parking.
Avoid bar seats. Request a table away from the bar if smoke bothers you, since smoking was reported in that area.
Consider deals. Restaurant Week menus can provide a less expensive introduction than the regular à la carte menu.

The Signature Tomahawk is a popular sharing cut, praised for its juicy texture and rich flavour.
The ribeye is repeatedly mentioned as a satisfying main, including on an anniversary visit.
Reviewers describe the fillet as tender, juicy and properly cooked.
The beef tartare can be prepared in front of the table, giving the starter a theatrical element.
The truffle mashed potatoes were specifically praised as smooth and well matched with the steak.
Regular à la carte dining is described as expensive, so this is not a budget steak dinner.
One guest reported several steaks arriving well done despite ordering medium well.
Smoking at the bar can expose nearby diners to second-hand smoke.
The bone marrow onion soup was found too salty, with only two small pieces of bone marrow.
A prawn dish initially arrived with black heads and undersized prawns before being replaced.

The Bottom Line
Seafire Steakhouse is a polished hotel steakhouse in Palm Jumeirah, suited to celebratory dinners, dates and business meals. You can order cuts such as the Signature Tomahawk, ribeye or fillet, then choose from a selection of steak knives before eating. Beef tartare prepared in front of guests is another memorable touch.
The food reviews are strongest on tender, accurately cooked steaks, generous sides and sauces or butters that can be mixed with each bite. Truffle mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, mushrooms and pecan tart also received specific praise. The wine list is considered solid, and some evenings bring a live singer or jazz band.
Tables are well spaced, with music generally quiet enough for conversation. This is an expensive dinner on the regular à la carte menu, although a Restaurant Week menu has offered a more accessible trial. If driving to Atlantis Hotel, reviewers mention free valet parking.
Do confirm your steak’s doneness clearly: one visit reported multiple medium-well orders arriving well done, while another found steaks under- or over-cooked. A seat near the bar may also expose you to second-hand smoke.
