About Akira Back at W Dubai
Korean and Japanese cooking meets a heavy seafood lean here, the sort of menu that rewards ordering in waves across a table rather than committing to one plate — and the bar keeps pace, with bottle service available for groups who settle in on the terrace. Music stays in the lounge and deep house register, low enough to talk over, which suits a room of young professionals and corporate tables mixed with hotel guests on the West Crescent of Palm Jumeirah. Service runs from 6pm to 11:30pm through the week, with Saturday and Sunday adding an afternoon sitting; Thursday through Saturday are the nights that fill. Smart casual is enforced, the crowd skews 25 to 45, drinking age is 21, and the $$$ band is what you would expect of a W address. Private dining and valet are both on hand. October to April is the season to be outside.
