Dubai’s DIFC is about to welcome two exciting new venues that mix great food, stylish vibes, and live entertainment. Opening this May on the 16th floor of Emirates Financial Towers, Geisha and Opal Room promise to add something fresh to the city’s already buzzing dining scene. Both are from the team behind The Act and Beyond Consultancy.

Geisha: Where Dinner Meets a Show
Geisha is a Pan-Asian lounge that blends dishes from Japan, China, Korea, and Thailand. While the full menu is still under wraps, expect bold flavors and creative combinations. The space itself is cozy yet dramatic, with candlelight, rich red tones, and stunning views of Dubai’s skyline — perfect for snapping a photo or two.
A central sushi bar lets you watch the chefs in action, and the cocktail bar is ideal for post-work drinks or a relaxed night out. After 11 PM, Geisha shifts into party mode, featuring live bands, DJs, and immersive performances that go beyond the usual night out at DIFC.
Opal Room: A Hidden Lounge with Big Vibes
Just steps from Geisha, Opal Room offers a more intimate experience. Tucked away behind a velvet curtain, this speakeasy-style lounge feels like a secret. Inside, it’s all about glass walls, moody lighting, deep house music, and striking visuals.
The space is designed for those who love exclusive, curated nights. Expect themed events, art performances, and a cool crowd. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to tell your friends about — but also kind of want to keep to yourself.
