Lana Lusa Unveils Uptown Tower Debut – A Bold New Chapter In DMCC’s Culinary Scene

Lana Lusa, the beloved Portuguese-Mediterranean restaurant, is set to open its grandest location yet in SO/ Uptown Dubai, Uptown Tower, this September – a special launch coinciding with the brand’s fifth anniversary since its first opening in October 2020. 

This new venue in Uptown is double the size of its renowned sister outlet at Four Seasons Private Residences by Dubai Water Canal. Designed to capture the vibrant, city-style energy of Uptown Dubai, the space will offer guests an immersive, urban-dining experience – not so distinct from the Water Canal’s serene, waterfront charm.

Highlights of the new Lana Lusa include:

• Expansive Layout – Bigger space, ready to welcome more guests, special occasions, and larger gatherings, including a dedicated private dining area.
• Two Bars – Matching in layout and spirit, the indoor and outdoor bars will serve as lively hubs for curated events, seasonal specials, and new activities soon to be revealed.
• City-Vibe Ambiance – A dynamic shift from the relaxed, waterfront charm of the Water Canal location, this new venue embraces the energy and sophistication of Dubai’s evolving skyline.
• Signature Offerings Continue – Guests can still enjoy the ever-popular Business Lunch at AED 99, alongside Aperitivo from 5–8 PM, featuring drinks and light bites. New activations and experiences are also on the horizon, staying true to Lana Lusa’s spirit of gathering, flavor, and celebration.

As part of DMCC and RIKAS Hospitality Group’s growing F&B portfolio in Uptown Tower – including Celeste, The Citronelle Club, Brasserie Uptown, Savant and Lazuli – Lana Lusa’s arrival strengthens the destination’s reputation for diverse, premium dining.

Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman & CEO of DMCC, shares:

“Dubai is known the world over for its vibrant F&B scene… We are delighted to welcome Lana Lusa to Uptown Tower, adding to a growing list of quality culinary options in the wider Uptown Dubai district. – LINK-UptownDubaiPage
