(This venue is closed.) It's an eye-catching storefront, even if the menu has no evident culinary connection with the namesake emirate. In particular, a "Dubai burger," though made with halal beef, otherwise seems to be nothing more than your usual well-dressed half-pounder. Perhaps the shop's name is a case of wishful thinking, or perhaps it's an homage to the owner's home country. The counterman this day was simply an employee, from Syria, and I didn't press the inquiry.
