The Bottom Line

Sui Mui is a pan-Asian restaurant in Dubai Marina inside The Westin, with a menu shaped by Thai, Japanese, Korean and Indonesian cooking. You can order à la carte dishes such as duck bao buns, roast duck, shrimp tempura and sushi, or book one of the buffet-style evenings that reviewers describe as a strong part of the experience. The buffet formats vary, but past guests have enjoyed Bangkok Night’s outdoor street-food-cart theme, with sushi, papaya salad and shrimp Pad Thai among the highlights.

Street Food Night has also included dim sum, barbecued prawns and squid, hainanese chicken rice and dessert. Outdoor seating can be particularly pleasant in good weather, while the open kitchen gives you a view of the chefs at work. Portions are generally described as generous, and there is a separate vegetarian menu.

Service is the main caution. Some visits were warm and attentive, but others involved waits of 30–45 minutes for starters, even when the restaurant was quiet. If you have strict vegan or gluten-free requirements, confirm each dish carefully: one reviewer received chicken soup instead of the requested vegan version.

The lighting is also very dim, and the atmosphere can feel family-oriented on some nights.
