Choose Vanitas for an Italian dinner in Palazzo Versace Dubai’s Creek-side setting. It is on the Jaddaf Waterfront, with dinner daily from 6pm to 11pm and last seating at 10:30pm. The hotel’s restaurant page says it is closed for lunch. Facts checked on 9 October 2026.
Location and setting
Vanitas is on the ground floor of the hotel’s East Wing. We would shortlist it for a planned couple’s dinner where the room and hotel setting matter. If a performance programme is the main reason for going out, compare a venue built around entertainment instead. Confirm the parking arrangement with the hotel when booking.
Food and menu
The menu is Italian, with pasta, seafood and seasonal choices. Use the menu linked by the hotel to build the order. For a couple, decide whether you want the romantic-dinner voucher or individual à la carte dishes before reserving. They are different ways to buy the meal, and a voucher price should not be presented as the cost of every dinner.
What does the set menu cost?
The hotel’s romantic-dinner voucher is currently advertised at AED 600 for two, including a three-course set menu and soft drinks. That works out at AED 300 per person within that particular offer. It requires a reservation and is subject to availability; the published validity runs to 23 December 2026 with holiday and blackout exclusions. Compare those terms with your actual date before buying.
Hours and booking
Book through the official restaurant page or contact hotel dining on +971 4 556 8805. General dinner hours and the voucher’s redemption times are different details: the voucher page lists 7pm–11pm. Confirm the service attached to the offer you choose rather than assuming a normal dinner reservation redeems a voucher automatically.
Dress code and children
The hotel specifies smart casual or traditional local attire. Children under six are not admitted to Vanitas. For a family occasion, that age rule is a reason to choose another restaurant if anyone in the party is younger.
Is it worth booking?
Our recommendation: compare the AED 600 voucher first for a couple who wants its included meal and soft drinks. Choose à la carte if the set choices do not suit your appetites. The Creek-side hotel setting gives Vanitas a clear role on a shortlist; a vague claim that it is “the best Italian” does not help you make the booking.
FAQs
Is Vanitas open for lunch?
No. Palazzo Versace’s official restaurant page currently says it is closed for lunch.
What time is dinner?
Daily from 6pm to 11pm, with last seating at 10:30pm.
Is there a three course offer?
Yes. The hotel sells a three-course romantic-dinner voucher for two. Its price, inclusions, validity and exclusions belong to that offer; they do not apply automatically to every table booking.
Voucher or ordinary reservation?
Choose the meal format first, then book the date. A voucher purchase does not guarantee a particular table on a busy evening. If you want a certain seat or are celebrating an occasion, agree it with reservations before purchasing extras. For an ordinary dinner, total the dishes and drinks you want from the live menu. For the voucher, check that both diners want the included courses and that the selected date is eligible. That is the useful comparison, rather than placing several unrelated historical set-menu prices side by side.
