Ramadan Reflections at The St. Regis Downtown Dubai

Ramadan in Dubai is a season unlike any other—softly glowing lanterns, heartfelt gatherings, and tables filled with dishes meant to be shared. This Holy Month, The St. Regis Downtown Dubai invites guests to pause, reflect, and reconnect through the return of its much-loved Ramadan Reflections experience, set against the tranquil beauty of the Dubai Water Canal.

Blending timeless elegance with meaningful moments, the hotel offers two distinct Iftar experiences: the signature open-air Ramadan Reflections on the third-floor terrace, and a newly introduced Ramadan-inspired set menu at Ginori Terrace—each designed to celebrate generosity,

tradition, and togetherness in true St. Regis style.

An Elegant Iftar by the Water: Ramadan Reflections

Returning to the hotel’s stunning terrace, Ramadan Reflections at The St. Regis Downtown Dubai unfolds in an al fresco setting overlooking gently flowing canal waters. As the sun sets and the call to prayer signals Iftar, the atmosphere transforms into one of quiet luxury—warm lighting, refined décor, and the soulful sounds of live oud music floating through the evening air.

Guests begin their experience with traditional dates, dried fruits, nuts, and refreshing Ramadan juices, setting the tone for a thoughtfully curated gourmet buffet. Comforting Arabic Lentil Soup is served alongside freshly baked assorted breads, followed by a colorful spread of cold mezze including creamy hummus, vibrant fattoush salad, and delicate warak enab.

Hot mezze highlights bring familiar favorites to the table—spinach fatayer, cheese sambousek, and crisp meat kibbeh—while live and grill stations elevate the experience with slow-roasted lamb ouzi, shawarma, shish tawook, and juicy Black Angus striploin prepared to perfection.

The main course selection is a celebration of global flavors, from regional classics like laban ummo, harra fish, and Moroccan chicken to international comfort dishes such as paneer butter masala, stir-fried noodles, penne Alfredo, and roasted potatoes. Dessert is nothing short of indulgent, featuring cheese kunafa, saffron milk cake, chocolate Swiss roll, and a crowd-pleasing interactive chocolate fountain.

Ramadan-Inspired Iftar at Ginori Terrace

The evening begins with traditional dates, dried fruits, and Ramadan juices, followed by a generous assortment of cold mezzeh. Guests can savor hazelnut hummus, caramelised butternut squash, batenjan mutabbal, muhammara, labneh, and classic fattoush salad. A selection of hot mezze follows, including cheese sambousek, lamb kibbeh, spinach fatayer, and freshly baked zaatar and halloumi manakish.

After a comforting bowl of Arabic lentil soup, the main course takes center stage with an Arabic mixed grill featuring kofta, shish tawook, and marinated lamb chops, served alongside a traditional Arabic salad.
