Urban Café Otaku

Our restaurant guide has to mention three important things about Otaku. One is that its owners and chefs are inspired by Japan – creating the sense of Zen both in the rarefied interiors and in the plating of the dishes. Two is that Otaku is in the Design District, and therefore everything that’s fashionable, cutting edge, and amazing in Dubai can be found within easy reach – maybe, even at the next table. Three is that the portions here are generous. So, if the waiter brings you a sandwich with avocado the size of a melon or a salad that can feed three people, complaints are useless. Oh, and make sure to preserve some strength for Otaku’s specialty – souffle pancakes.
