Rowley’s DIFC has proudly secured a nomination from FACT Magazine for Best New Restaurant 2025, distinguishing itself in a market often defined by glitz and spectacle. This acknowledgment is more than just an accolade — it is a recognition of Rowley’s bold commitment to understated excellence.
The restaurant has embraced a clear and consistent identity: walk-in-only access, a compact yet precise menu, and a focus on flawless execution. This authenticity has drawn in a devoted clientele who value substance, sincerity, and the comfort of knowing every visit will meet the same high standards.
Unlike many newcomers that rely on gimmicks, Rowley’s lets the food and hospitality speak for themselves. Each plate is a product of careful sourcing, refined technique, and a desire to create an environment that feels both relaxed and refined.
FACT Magazine’s nomination affirms that in a city saturated with trends, there is still room — and demand — for restaurants that offer true craftsmanship. Rowley’s DIFC stands as a model for how to win hearts (and awards) by simply doing things right.
