The story
CÉ LA VI translates from French to "This is the life" – a fitting name for a venue that anchors its identity in the spirit of living fully. The concept originated in Southeast Asia and has since expanded to cities including Singapore, Taipei, Tokyo, London, and now Dubai. At The Address Sky View Tower 2, on level 54, the Dubai outpost brings together a rooftop restaurant, a sky bar, and a club lounge, each with a distinct atmosphere but all sharing panoramic views of the Burj Khalifa and the city’s skyline.
The restaurant has earned a place in the Michelin Guide Dubai, receiving the "Recommended" distinction in 2026. This recognition reflects the kitchen’s commitment to bold, contemporary cuisine built on modern Asian flavours. The cooking is described as “crafted to Michelin standards,” with dishes that balance innovation and precision. Among the signatures highlighted on the summer lunch menu are the Black Truffle 'Sushi Rice' Risotto and the Mango Basil Tart – both examples of the confident, season-driven approach.
The restaurant serves lunch and dinner daily, with a three-course summer lunch menu available Sunday to Friday, extended until 5 PM. Brunch plays a central role here: the Skyline Brunch on Saturdays pairs Michelin-approved dishes with sommelier-curated beverages and live DJ sets, all set against the city’s most recognisable horizon. For a more relaxed Sunday, the venue offers a family-oriented lunch designed for sharing and connection.
The club lounge comes alive at night with resident and international guest DJs, hosting events like Ladies’ Night on Tuesdays and the high-energy Saturday party “She Is With Us.” The sky bar offers a more casual perch for cocktails and late-night bites, with the Champagne and Oyster Club available daily.
CÉ LA VI Dubai can host groups from 15 to 600 guests across its three dynamic spaces. From corporate dinners to milestone birthdays, the team tailors experiences that take advantage of the 54th-floor views. The brunch package for ten or more guests, for example, includes a complimentary spot for the birthday celebrant plus one.
Whether you come for the contemporary brunch, the sunset aperitivo, or a late evening under the stars, the constant is the sense of elevation – both literal and in the quality of what’s on the plate and in the glass.
