Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6

Book ahead. Reserve in advance, especially for a celebratory dinner; one repeat visitor called reservations highly recommended.

Choose steak. If deciding between mains, favour the steaks over the wagyu burger, which received a notably weaker review.

The Bottom Line

World Cut Steakhouse is a special-occasion steakhouse in Business Bay, set inside the grand Habtoor Palace. The main draw is the meat: reviews mention medium-cooked ribeye, strip loin, tenderloin, tomahawk and Japanese wagyu, with the World Cut Special tenderloin earning praise for its sear and tenderness. It is also a dinner built around ceremony, from selecting a steak knife to choosing three mustards from ten varieties.

The room is elegant and atmospheric rather than casual. Live piano or singing is a recurring highlight, although one diner found the music too loud for comfort. Service is often attentive, and complimentary birthday cake or candles have made celebrations feel thoughtfully handled.

Brunch is another route in, with table-served seafood, steak mains, drinks and the option to request more of popular dishes; seafood is prominent, so non-seafood diners should check the menu first. Budget carefully. Some guests consider the pricing steep, and La Perle package upgrades have added AED 200, while one wine addition resulted in almost AED 300 extra.

A few reviews also mention slow food delivery and mixed results from the wagyu burger and steak tartare. Book ahead, confirm package inclusions, and ask about the mustard and knife services when ordering.
