A beautiful new addition to J1 beach. There have been a couple of Woodfire grill openings in the last year or so but Ina has definitely made its mark on the scene. It’s an open-air restaurant that has a totally unique vibe to it - dark and moody but inviting and warm at the same time. On the menu, lots of grilled seafood, meat and vegetables. Quite an impressive selection of Australian and US dry-aged beef - the cowgirl split bone ribeye caught my eye from the get go, as did the tomahawk with its aggressive marbling. To start though, the beef carpaccio was one of the standouts. Wafer thin, super marbled and drizzled with a fresh, floral and herby green dressing alongside some caviar. Rolled up and eaten in one bite, this was lovely. The Greek Manouri cheese with smoked grapes and olive oil was sensational too, couldn’t get enough of that crumbly sweet and savoury plate. Tomato carpaccio wasn’t really a carpaccio but fresh, sweet and enjoyable. From the crudo’s, the pink bream was both the eye and flavour catcher - a nice spicy charred jalapeno dressing across the top. Raw Hokkaido scallops and kiwi were tasty too. The steak was also fantastic. The ribeye was funky and mature - a meatier profile than the tomahawk, which was milder and more tender. Both steaks nicely cooked, smokey and flavoursome. I preferred the AUS to the US though. Lots of tasty plates to choose from here, all kissed with some sort of smoke. It’s a great spot for dinner - you’re unlikely to find a restaurant with this vibe and style of food anywhere else in Dubai #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
