RSVP is the latest welcome addition to the Dubai food scene. RSVP is located in the Jumeirah Boxpark region; an urban lifestyle destination that houses trendy boutiques, concept dining and entertainment venues. The restaurant is run by the very same passionate team that founded Michelin star 11 Woodfire, with the kitchen being led by the talented Chef Aadel Ouaoua. The menu showcases French cuisine – with subtle Japanese influence – in an unpretentious yet highly impressive manner.

Signature dishes include the escargot (snails cooked in a butter parsley jus), the charcoal smoked lamb chops cooked in a teriyaki sauce, the spicy tom yum curry with cod fillet and the Wagyu beef fillet, to name a few. A personal favourite is the Wagyu beef tartare, served on a bed of freshly home-made brioche elegantly topped with a touch of Russian Osetra caviar; a divinely tasty starter that will keep you coming back to RSVP.

Other personal favourites include the iconic truffle pizza, the Blue Fin tuna avocado tartare as well as the incredible chouquettes dessert (choux pastry filled with vanilla cream) drizzled with decadent chocolate and sprinkled with nuts. This dessert was absolutely phenomenal. RSVP offers an array of dishes so you can build your own meal based on personal preferences of starter, mains, sides, desserts, etc (as well as personal budget). The creamy ultra-smooth mashed potato is highly recommended; it is the best mash I have ever tasted (yes, I know… just mashed potato, right? But it is truly phenomenal).

The service at RSVP is impeccable. The style of dining may be “Fun French Dining” but the service is certainly top class. This gorgeous and beautifully designed restaurant is already a popular Dubai spot and there is certainly no questioning why. If you’re looking to enjoy absolutely fantastic food, be sure to add RSVP to your Dubai restaurant list.
