Located in the Al Bustan Rotana, near Dubai Airport, Rodeo Grill screams business traveller. However, the staff are effortlessly helpful, while the menu is varied enough to warrant a thorough browse, but not so vast that you’d fear a microwave conspiracy if your order arrived too soon.

For starters, the crab cakes are some of the best Time Out has tasted, and the prawns are juicy, but sparse, despite claims of being a ‘jumbo’ platter. For mains, a grade nine wagyu beef steak is as tempting an offer as any meat lover can get. Quite rightly too, as expectations should be high given the Dhs400 price tag. But sadly, it still feels overpriced.

The seafood platter, though, is delicious. The lobster is meaty and flavoursome, the hammour with lemon butter dreamy.This spot is definitely worth a trip if you’re in the Garhoud ’hood and it’s just past pay day.

We stayed at the Al Bustan Rotana from 10th - 14th April and enjoyed a wonderful 3 course meal in the Rodeo Grill on Saturday evening. The oysters and scallops to start were amazing, the t bone and the seafood mixed grill for mains were delicious and all topped off by the wonderful chocolate soufle for 2 which was suggested to us by the waiter. A totally wonderful evening with 2 bottles of decent red wine and a few cocktails later in the bar to finish off the perfect evening! We will be back in July! Don't take any notice of reviews that say this restaurant screams business travel as it does not in any way. We have stayed in all of the best hotels in Dubai (and I mean ALL including the Burj al Arab) and this food and atmosphere is comparable.
