Barfly by Buddha-Bar, the legendary dining and nightlife destination nestled within the vibrant Hilton Dubai Palm Jumeirah, proudly unveils its bold new culinary offering—a masterfully reimagined menu that elevates International Asian fusion to new theatrical heights, launching on 28th May 2025.
Renowned for its dramatic interiors, sweeping views of Dubai’s skyline, and vibrant ambiance, Barfly by Buddha-Bar now invites discerning guests to embark on a gastronomic journey of perfectly curated dishes by where heritage and haute cuisine collide.
The new menu is a curated symphony of Asia’s most beloved flavours redefined through avant-garde techniques, the finest ingredients, and Barfly’s signature International selection for the extraordinary.
Guests can expect an immersive dining experience where each dish is designed to be both shared and savoured. Highlights include the Maguro Truffle Ponzu Tiradito, an indulgent take on tuna tataki adorned with kumquat and caramelised pear; the Hokkaido Hotate Roll, a luxurious medley of scallop, unagi, truffle butter, and gold leaf; and the show-stopping Josper-Grilled Half Lobster, elegantly served with chupe rice and a luscious bisque sauce.
From the moment guests open the menu, Barfly by Buddha-Bar’s signature creations take centre stage. Highlights include the exquisite Hokkaido Scallop and vibrant Sunset Roll, the playful Barfly Sakana Pot, and the indulgent Wagyu Rib Eye – each dish a testament to the venue’s commitment to refined flavours, premium ingredients, and Asian fusion artistry.
For those seeking comfort with a sophisticated twist, offerings such as the Confit Duck Pot Fried Rice and deliver bold depth and balance. Vegetarian palates are equally indulged with refined options like the Burrata Salad, King Mushroom Bao and Barfly Roasted Cauliflower each crafted to delight with flavour-forward finesse.
The culinary finale is nothing short of spectacular. From the tropical-infused Tokoroten Jelly to the whimsical Yuzu Mango Cheesecake and a Coconut Tiramisu paired with Thai iced tea ice cream, each dessert is an ode to innovation and indulgence.
Complementing this epicurean voyage is the introduction of the Negroni Lounge—the first of its kind in the Middle East which witnessed spectacular launch event last month. Conceived in partnership with Campari, this exclusive space pays homage to Italy’s most iconic aperitif. Open Thursday to Saturday from 7 PM to 2 AM, the lounge boasts a curated Negroni cocktail menu, live performances, mixology masterclasses, and an ambiance that channels the sultry sophistication of Milan’s cocktail scene.
As night falls, Barfly transforms into a dynamic theatre of entertainment. Guests are treated to an immersive line-up featuring a resident singer, DJ sets, and captivating live acts—creating an atmosphere where glamour, gastronomy, and rhythm converge.
Whether basking under the soft lantern glow indoors or soaking in the panoramic terrace views, Barfly by Buddha-Bar promises an enchanting escape, where every bite and beat tells a story of refined indulgence.
