Blessed by one of Dubai’s top locations, and gloriously hosted poolside at the Rixos Premium Dubai, Ammos would be a hit even if it only served sour coffee – but you’re in for a fine-dining treat regardless of its fortunate surroundings.

In fact, let us focus on the food, and only later bring in the images of the poolside views!

Ammos is Greek and proud of it – but the ingredients are sourced from the very best available worldwide, and then they are expertly prepared under the supervision and care of award-winning Chef Dimitris Lazarou.

And if you want to know what level of excellence Ammos aims for, I’ll let you know that what comes out of the Ammos’ kitchens is fit for royalty.

The menu has something for everyone, and Greek cuisine works best with freshness and very simple and light sauces, allowing for the ingredients to have a voice.

This beetroot salad had my taste buds dancing – so simple, and yet so delicious!

And the Tzatziki was tangy and a real pleasure to dip.

A fresh seafood banquet is at your disposal, if you prefer to order directly off the ice.

And within the a la carte selection you will find authentic Greek specialties with both meats and seafood, as well as vegetarian dishes.

Ammos is fully licensed, and also offers a good selection of mocktails.

At dessert time, please follow my advice and taste what is a unique panna cotta, made with Greek yogurt and topped with cherry tomato marmalade – Ammos Yogurt Panakota – absolutely divine!

But so far I’ve hidden the location, because I wanted Ammos to stand on its own two legs based on the fine quality of the food served – because it’s easy to be mesmerized by the views and be blinded to the culinary excellence.

Poolside, and facing the Dubai Eye and the sea on one side, and the imposing Rixos Premiuim Dubai on the other.

And the restaurant decor is precious as well.

Overall, to impress a date, or to simply gather friends and family for a first-class lunch or dinner, or perhaps to smooth out a few business details, Ammos Greek restaurant offers equal sophistication of dining experience supported by exquisite surroundings and location – a win-win-win situation!
