Concept to keys: kitchen, extraction, MEP, fire safety, interiors and every approval — on a fixed itemized quote, delivered to your opening date.
The short answer
A restaurant fit-out in Dubai costs AED 400–700 per sq ft for a cafe or QSR, AED 700–1,200 per sq ft for casual dining, and AED 1,200–2,500+ per sq ft for fine dining — delivered in 8–16 weeks including Food Control and Civil Defence approvals.
AED 400 – 2,500 / sq ft
We build restaurants, cafes and F&B venues across Dubai end to end — the most technically demanding fit-out there is. Commercial kitchen, kitchen exhaust and fresh-air systems, grease management, MEP, fire suppression, acoustics, interiors, bar, joinery and FF&E. We manage Dubai Municipality, Food Control, Civil Defence and landlord approvals, and we sequence the build around your launch date — because in F&B, every week of delay is rent burning with no revenue.

Across the UAE, the lowest quote is rarely the final bill. We define the scope and put changes in writing.
In 2026, restaurant fit-out in Dubai costs AED 400–700 per sq ft for a cafe or quick-service venue, AED 700–1,200 per sq ft for casual dining, and AED 1,200–2,500+ per sq ft for fine dining — driven largely by the kitchen and MEP.
The commercial kitchen, exhaust and fresh-air systems, grease management, fire suppression and heavy MEP make F&B the most technically demanding fit-out. On kitchen-heavy builds the MEP package alone can rival the entire interior finish.
Most restaurant fit-outs take 8–16 weeks depending on kitchen complexity and approvals. We sequence the programme around your target opening date.
Yes — Dubai Municipality, Food Control, Civil Defence and landlord approvals are managed as part of the contract, including kitchen exhaust and grease-trap compliance.
