Jambase
If you’ve frequented the Madinat Jumeirah at night, then I’m sure you’ve noticed that Jambase always has line of eager guests outside its doors.

Blue Bar
This fun looking bar with blue lighting on the ground floor of the Novotel hotel in the Dubai World Trade Center is empty by day and packed to the brim at night. Perhaps so highly rated on the food side, the live jazz acts make up for any unsatisfying culinary creations.

Malecon
This Latin American joint in the Dubai Marine Resort and Spa plays some great latino tunes as well as serves some delicious South American cuisine. Try the Camarones Al Coco which are breaded prawns with pineapple chutney, a delicious bar snack or appetizer.
