The Palm, Dubai - Ossiano
Nestled within the opulent Atlantis The Palm, Ossiano Dubai, the Michelin-starred restaurant helmed by Chef Grégoire Berger, captivates guests with a breathtaking fusion of oceanic ambiance and culinary artistry. Dining here is not merely an experience; it is a journey into another world where sharks, fish, and stingrays glide gracefully around you, and each meticulously plated dish unveils a story of memory, imagination, and emotion.
Throughout the evening, guests' journey through different spaces within the restaurant, each unveiling a new chapter of the experience. At the culmination of the meal, a beautiful moment of fire and reflection marks the finale, and each guest departs with a curated book and a bookmark of the evening’s menu, a keepsake of the unforgettable evening.

Even before reaching the dining room, the experience begins with a descent down a grand spiral staircase, creating the feeling of entering a submerged theater. As you arrive, floor-to-ceiling windows reveal a living backdrop, Ambassador Lagoon, home to over 65,000 marine creatures.
Chef Berger’s tasting menu is thoughtfully crafted as a narrative told in "waves," with each course unfolding a chapter of his life through carefully composed dishes. Every plate arrives with theatrical flair, foie gras shaped into candles and ignited tableside, melting into accompaniments; leeks and clams arranged delicately upon hand-shaped porcelain, evoking the formative memories of his life experiences from childhood to adulthood.
The artistry goes beyond technical excellence; it is deeply personal. Each course reminds diners how food is intertwined with identity, history, and memory.
As a family who experience Michelin-starred dining together, it is important for us to share which restaurants are thoughtfully family-forward. Ossiano maintains a policy welcoming diners aged 10 and above, and we believe it is essential that any young guest be truly ready for a lengthy, immersive, and contemplative culinary experience. Our daughter, affectionately known as EDM—Emma Does Michelin, embraced the evening beautifully. Ossiano will always hold a special place in her journey, and ours, as a night where food, wonder, and imagination came together seamlessly beneath the sea.
Ossiano Dubai stands as a testament to the seamless fusion of fine dining and immersive theater. For those seeking an evening that transcends the ordinary, where elegance, storytelling, and sensory wonder intertwine, Ossiano delivers an unparalleled experience.
