BordoMavi, A Taste of the Aegean

BordoMavi isn’t just a seafood spot—it’s a laid-back slice of the Aegean right here in Dubai. Tucked away in Jumeirah’s charming Fishing Harbour, this cozy fish restaurant serves up fresh flavors, warm vibes, and that unhurried, holiday kind of feeling.

Step inside and you’ll feel like you’ve stumbled into a hidden gem on the Turkish coast. Whitewashed walls and ocean blues. It’s all about the good stuff: freshly caught fish, honest ingredients, and simple dishes that let the flavours shine.

Start with a spread of colourful mezze—creamy aubergine, garlicky yoghurt dips, hummus and warm bread that disappears in seconds. Then move on to the amazing dishes they offer on their menu. Everything here is light, vibrant, and made to share.

Our pick? The Pan Seared Shrimp Casserole. Juicy prawns baked in a clay pot. A bubbling hot dish of tender shrimp, cooked in a 250-year-old recipe of rich Black Sea butter, zesty garlic powder, and a touch of paprika. Pare it with the Tuna Tartare and Tomato Reyhan Salad for a fresh touch.

Voyage Voyage tip: Head there around sunset, grab a spot on the terrace, and let the view—and the food—do the rest.

Location: Jumeirah Fishing Harbour 1, Dubai.
