Why go
SANA Dubai is a strong choice for a celebration dinner in Madinat Jumeirah if the plan is Uzbek sharing plates, a waterfront terrace, cocktails afterward. Order around plov, Tandir Non, shashlik, seabass, or lamb, use MOON Bar as the after-dinner move. It is less compelling for diners seeking a quiet, wine-led meal.
