Offering Mediterranean cuisine with a contemporary twist, Miya Dubai promises to transport guests to the Greek Isles.
The latest restaurant concept from Alexander Orlov, restaurateur and founder of Bulldozer Group, Miya Dubai is set to bring a taste of the Greek Isles to Bluewaters Island later this month. Inspired by the always glamorous Mykonos, Miya will mirror the magic and beauty of the sunny Cycladic Island, blending Greek hospitality with a passion for flavour.
Born from Greek roots, the inspiration for the restaurant came from sunny Mykonos, where once lived Miya, a beautiful soul with a passion for blending, baking, and marinating. She would take a handful of raw ingredients and turn them into delectable culinary wonders that she loved to share with friends. In a tribute to the Greek figure of Miya, each dish at the Dubai restaurant is crafted with love, using only the highest quality products and has a story behind it that makes every bite wonderful.

“We are thrilled to bring this new concept to life, which will be the perfect addition to Bluewaters Island and the city’s wider culinary scene,” said Alexander Orlov, founder of Bulldozer Group. “With a unique combination of legendary Greek hospitality, a warm community feel and an elevated yet unassuming culinary offering, Miya is set to be an instant hit with Dubai’s diners.”
The menu represents traditional Greek dishes and is dominated by a selection of Mediterranean favourites, with each designed to tell a timeless story of food, friends, and togetherness. Guests can expect familiar Greek flavours with a modern twist, with signature dishes such as Beef tartar with black truffle; Roasted octopus with hummus and salsa verde; Kebab with aubergine and chickpeas popcorn; Feta saganaki with tomato marmalade; Greek yoghurt with loukoumades and Baked Pepper with Tuna Tartar and Tonnato Sauce. Miya’s dessert selection will feature popular favourites with a unique twist, such as Greek yoghurt that is served with fresh blueberries. The bar menu has a wide selection of invigorating and appetizing variations of cocktails and mocktails and traditional Greek wine that attracts guests no less than the picturesque surroundings.

Welcoming guests to a traditional, Mediterranean-style interior with a contemporary edge, Miya offers a warm, cheerful environment that invites patrons to connect over food in a cosy atmosphere.

Featuring a neutral colour palette with pops of blue, white, and copper, the interior décor incorporates thoughtfully crafted natural textures throughout, such as reclaimed wood accents, herringbone tile and rattan furniture. In the evenings, guests can enjoy their meals in a relaxed atmosphere with warm, subdued lighting complete with a backdrop of melodic live music provided by Greek musicians.
