Now that Dubai\u2019s outdoor season is mercifully back in full swing, Estiatorio Milos reclaims its spot at the top of our al fresco dining list. From the moment you step inside, you\u2019re greeted by stunning Greek marble, soaring 20-foot ceilings, and an expansive fish bar. And if that doesn\u2019t stop you in your tracks, the breathtaking view of Atlantis The Royal with its dancing fountains surely will. Founded in Montreal in 1979 by Chef Costas Spiliadis, Milos is celebrated as one of the world\u2019s premier Hellenic restaurants. Their hallmark is the impeccable combination of fresh Mediterranean fish flown in daily and understated recipes that allow every ingredient, from the olive oil to the sea salt, stand out. Every detail is considered, especially how your fish is prepared. Pro tip: if sashimi or ceviche aren\u2019t your thing, go for salt-crusted and you\u2019ll get to enjoy the full tableside spectacle of it being expertly filleted. With its family-style menu, authentic Greek flavours, and immersive ambience, Milos offers a true slice of Greece right in the heart of Dubai.<\/p>\n
