Les Dangereux
Saadiyat’s Les Dangereux lives up to its name with a bold, eclectic menu. While French inspiration is evident, the offerings span the globe, from spaghetti with bottarga to wagyu striploin and churros with dulce de leche. This combination delivers a blend of playfulness and pretension. However, as Gault&Millau stated last year, although we found the service prompt, it felt detached, and the single bathroom remains an issue after a number of years. Ultimately, Les Dangereux is intriguing but uneven, with memorable creativity tempered by inconsistencies in service and facilities.

A modern, fine-dining French restaurant with farm-to-table ethos, beachfront views at Mamsha Al Saadiyat, refined plating and seasonal produce, but described by at least one reviewer as casual in feel and friendly in service rather than stuffy.
