Been a fairly regular visitor to Le Meridien Al Aqah for 10 years (spent Christmas ‘22 there this visit) and Gonu is probably my favourite restaurant at the hotel. Right on the beach, tasty food (oysters, lamb rack, or rib-eye cooked beautifully and taste amazing),...great service - lunch or dinner, laid back atmosphere - what is not to love! Whole team excellent but Prince deserves the mention - top man in every way. Cannot wait until our next visit.More

The Gonu Grill and Seafood Restaurant is located on the beach within the Le Meridien Al Aqah Beach Resort. It is one of the five or six restaurants currently operating within the resort. We reserved a table for our large party of seven directly facing...the sea. During our great dinner we received top service, fantastic assorted seafood dishes and the sounds of the pounding waves in the background! What more does one require? I started with a plate of the “Local Dubai Oysters” and then had a pot of fresh black mussels. My family had an assortment of the extremely large and tasty Omani Shrimp and a surf-and-turf plate, etc. I strongly suggest you reserve a sea facing table and really enjoy the incredible food. All in all our meal was extraordinary!More
