These Dubai restaurants are hosting dine-in iftars…

Restaurants in Dubai are slowly reopening their doors and many are serving up iftars during the holy month of Ramadan. Safety precautions are in place, so the iftars will differ greatly from the lavish buffets we are used to seeing. But nonetheless, the food is going to be delicious.

We will be updating this list throughout the month, so be sure to bookmark this page.

And as restaurants can only operate at 30 per cent capacity, don’t forget to reserve well in advance.

Here is our round-up of iftars you can try in Dubai this Ramadan.
