Ossiano is the underwater restaurant inside Atlantis, The Palm: a dining room whose long wall is the Ambassador Lagoon, with rays and sharks passing the tables through the evening. It holds one Michelin star and serves a tasting menu of nine courses plus three canapés. The chef who built its reputation, Grégoire Berger, left at the end of 2024; the kitchen has run under executive chef Rémy Marquignon since 2025 and kept the star.
It opens daily at 6pm with the last seating at 9pm, and the published menu price starts at AED 1,250 per person. The tables against the glass are the ones to ask for.
Booking, the OF.luxury way
One message covers it: date, party size and any preferences. We confirm availability and the night's terms directly with the venue, hold the table in your name, and stay reachable until you are seated. Every booking is subject to the venue's availability and confirmed case by case.
Ossiano's current menu and the chef behind it
Since Grégoire Berger's departure, the kitchen has been led by executive chef Rémy Marquignon. His menu is shorter than the old ten-course voyage: nine courses, preceded by three canapés served before guests are seated. The emphasis is on seasonality, precision and balance.
What the menu holds
- Heirloom tomatoes with verbena oil to open.
- King crab set in a lobster chawanmushi with a spherified egg yolk.
- Line-caught John Dory glazed with raspberry vinegar.
- A5 Australian Wagyu with black truffle and tosazu.
- A hazelnut dessert made with nuts from a family farm in Normandy.
Wine pairings are offered alongside. Dietary needs are best given when the table is booked, not on the night.
The room
The dining room seats just 54 guests, ten metres down beside the Ambassador Lagoon. More than 65,000 marine animals live in the resort's aquarium, so the view changes through the meal. Because the room is small and the menu fixed, every table takes the whole evening.
Who it suits
It is best for an anniversary, a proposal or a celebratory dinner for two to four. It is less suited to a business dinner, where the glass tends to win the conversation. In the same resort, Nobu Dubai suits a looser evening. For a livelier table on the Palm, see Ling Ling at Atlantis The Royal. Plan nothing after Ossiano; the menu fills the night.
