Michelin-starred British chef Jason Atherton's social dining concept in DIFC.

Social by Jason Atherton in DIFC brings the Michelin-starred British chef's refined approach to modern social dining - a menu designed for sharing, conversation and the kind of effortless excellence that makes dining a pleasure rather than a performance. The cooking is precise and creative without being austere: cured salmon, heritage beef tartare, and desserts that reward attention. One of the most culinarily serious restaurants in the Gulf.
