About this spot
Perched on the beachfront at Pavilion at The Beach, this JBR spot specializes in massive charcoal-grilled whole crabs that are split open tableside for a dramatic presentation. While the menu changes daily based on the catch, expect to see succulent butter-basted crab legs and spicy grilled prawns alongside fresh salads and cold beers. It is the perfect place to watch the sunset over Dubai Marina while enjoying seafood that feels like it was pulled straight from the ocean.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order a whole crab immediately upon seating as they are cooked in batches and portions run out quickly.
- Skip the indoor seating if you want to avoid the humidity; the open-air deck offers better airflow during dinner service.
- Ask for extra lemon wedges before your food arrives, as the acidic citrus cuts through the rich butter sauce effectively.
