MOONRISE

Moonrise is an Omakase restaurant located on the rooftop of Eden House, a luxury residential tower on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai. Led by Solemann Haddad, it is a 12-seater dining experience that focuses on shining the spotlight on the diversity of ingredients & culinary stories that this region has to offer. 

We focus on serving constantly evolving multi-course menus in which we draw inspiration from Middle Eastern & Japanese ingredients, techniques & food cultures to tell our story & the story of Dubai through food. 

Our experience is served in a chef’s table format, where you would be seated on a counter just inches away from the open kitchen where Solemann Haddad & his chefs will prepare & guide you through each of your courses. All the while being surrounded by the theatrical backdrop of Dubai’s beautiful cityscape.
