The Pearl Island in Doha isn’t just a place for the mega-rich to dock their yachts. Here, Qatar dials up its culinary glamour, too: dinner comes with a side of sunset skyline, and every table promises more than just a meal — but a moment. Inventive seafood and Mediterranean classics coexist with classic steakhouses and modern Chinese, meaning there’s something for everyone, with a healthy dose of indulgence. Read on for our guide to the best MICHELIN-recommended restaurants on The Pearl Qatar.

Chicago Rare
127 Porto Arabia Drive, The Pearl-Qatar, Four Seasons The Pearl-Qatar, Doha
﷼﷼﷼ · Steakhouse

Chicago Rare serves steak with swagger. This 1920s-inspired steakhouse channels the glitz, grit and buzz of Prohibition-era Chicago, with live jazz and service straight out of a Blues Brothers scene. USDA Prime beef, lamb shank and colossal crab legs sizzle to perfection in the Josper oven and grill, while desserts such as the Campfire Alaska provide a theatrical finish. Subtle Art Deco touches, globally sourced meats and a menu that goes all in ensure that every visit is a memorable one.

TONO
6 La Croisette, Porto Arabia The Pearl Island, Doha
﷼﷼﷼ · Peruvian

Tono may greet you with a discreet street-level entrance, but upstairs the space unfolds into a glamorous two-floor haven of waterfront views. Opened by international chef Akira Back, the menu is as polished as the surroundings: prawn cigars spark joy, sea bass ceviche is unmissable and every dish lands with style. Attentive, personable service completes the experience, while weekly offers give diners a reason to keep coming back to this contemporary Japanese hotspot.

Kai’s Songbird
Porto Arabia, The Pearl, Corinthia Yacht Club, Doha
﷼﷼﷼ · Chinese

Kai’s Songbird brings all the character of its London roots to the Corinthia Yacht Club, offering liberated Nanyang cuisine that fuses Chinese heritage with modern creativity. The interiors inside whisk you away somewhere whimsical, yet the air-conditioned terrace with waterfront views is equally enticing. Seafood takes center stage — wok-hei prawns, soft-shell crab and the legendary aromatic crispy duck are highlights — while the little plate mains let you sample a bit of everything. Modern Chinese dining here is playful, elegant and thoroughly memorable.

BiBo
The Pearl, Costa Malaz Bay, Doha
﷼﷼﷼ · Spanish

At BiBo, the lively spirit of Spanish tapas and the rhythm of Andalusian flavors set the beat for the entire dining experience. Perched on a private island within the palatial Marsa Malaz Kempinski, Dani García’s playful take on Mediterranean fine dining infused with brasserie influences delights from start to finish. Tapas and sharing plates marry contemporary creativity with Andalusian tradition — langostinos fritos (fried prawns), oxtail brioche and a chocolate tart are standouts on the menu. The clubby, intimate interior, complete with a dramatic fish-tail centerpiece, guarantees good conversation starters, while the menu reads like a culinary diary of García’s exotic travels. BiBo proves that elevated dining can be relaxed, social and utterly unforgettable.
