The Bottom Line
The Hide is a polished brasserie in Al Sufouh, inside the Al Qasr setting, with a menu that leans confidently toward steak. Steak frites, Wagyu rib eye and tuna steak all receive specific praise, while pescatarians can look beyond the usual steakhouse choices. It suits dinner, celebrations and date-night occasions more than a quick, casual meal.
The food highlights go beyond the grill. Reviews mention yellow fin tuna tartar, beef tartar, charred octopus, prawn linguini and truffle Mac and cheese, with desserts such as Crêpe Suzette, cheesecake and Chocolate Rocher also making strong impressions. A brunch review describes a large, high-quality spread, though another guest found the package expensive and some portions underwhelming.
The setting is one of the drawcards: the interior is described as sophisticated and cosy, while outdoor tables can offer memorable Burj Al Arab views. Cocktails and wine are also part of the experience, and reviewers mention help choosing a bottle or pairing. Book ahead, particularly if you are entering through the hotel, and request an outdoor table if the view matters.
Service is usually described as attentive, but there are isolated reports of long waits for drinks, food and desserts during busier visits.
