Caprice Holdings opens 300-seat Sexy Fish in Dubai

Richard Caring’s Caprice Holdings has made its debut in the UAE with the launch of Sexy Fish Dubai.

The 300-cover Japanese-inspired restaurant and terrace has opened today (4 December) on the 11th-floor rooftop of the Dubai International Financial Centre’s Innovation One building.

Menus include foie gras and black truffle wagyu gyoza (£46.60); lobster tempura (£67); and a sushi counter and raw bar.

It is the fourth global location for the Sexy Fish brand, which launched in London’s Mayfair in 2015 and expanded to Miami in 2022 and Manchester in 2023.

“The Middle East, and Dubai specifically, has made its mark on the map as a global pioneer of innovation, welcoming an array of diverse and discerning diners,” said Caring.

“We are thrilled to bring Caprice Holdings, our rich heritage, and expert know-how to a region that is bubbling with potential and opportunity.

“We look forward to bringing our unique approach to the region’s competitive and glamorous F&B landscape with the launch of Sexy Fish Dubai.”

Dubai’s growing restaurant scene saw the launch of the first Michelin Guide Dubai in 2022. The 2024 edition includes four two-star restaurants, including Jason Atherton’s Row on 45, and 15 one-star restaurants such as Dinner by Heston Blumenthal.
