Dubai: Nobu One Za’abeel to debut in January 2026

One&Only One Za’abeel is set to amplify Dubai’s culinary landscape with the launch of Nobu One Za’abeel in January 2026, introducing the next evolution of the world-renowned Nobu brand. Located within The Link, the record-breaking cantilevered sky concourse that defines One Za’abeel, the restaurant promises a fusion of iconic Japanese-Peruvian cuisine and dramatic contemporary design, all framed by sweeping panoramic views.

Inside, Nobu One Za’abeel pairs refined elegance with bold artistic flair. The interiors feature a rich mix of black cerused oak, embossed leather, oil-rubbed bronze, Calacatta Cielo marble, and liquid metal art panels, all accented with warm lighting and delicate gold-leaf details. As night deepens, the venue transitions into Dubai’s newest late-night destination, with a lively bar and lounge energised by top DJs and extended hours, an after-hours concept unique to this Nobu location.
