Stories From the Chefs We’ve Walked Beside
Every chef, every owner — each carried a dream. We had the honor to help. Here’s what they shared.
They helped me set up everything from layout to delivery.
When I started our catering kitchen, I had no idea where to begin. The HorecaStore team guided me through the layout, brand selection, and power requirements. By the time equipment arrived, we were fully ready to start operations. Seamless experience!
Farah L.
Catering Business Owner
They went the extra mile to meet my opening deadline.
My restaurant launch date was fixed, but a few key machines were delayed with other suppliers. HorecaStore expedited replacements and arranged partial deliveries just so I could open on time. That flexibility saved my grand opening.
Omar R.
Restaurant Founder
They answered questions I didn’t even know to ask.
I was opening my first café and honestly had no clue what equipment I actually needed. HorecaStore didn’t rush me — they broke it down in simple steps and stopped me from overspending.

Opening a Restaurant in Dubai: Your Complete Startup Guide
Opening a restaurant is more than just a business idea — it’s a dream built around passion for food, service, and creativity. If you’re considering opening a restaurant in Dubai, you’re choosing one of the most vibrant hospitality markets in the world. With a booming tourism sector, diverse communities, and a strong dining culture, Dubai offers tremendous opportunities for new restaurant owners.
Why Open a Restaurant in Dubai?
Dubai’s fast-growing food and beverage sector makes it an ideal destination for restaurant entrepreneurs. The city’s population includes residents from over 200 nationalities, which creates demand for a wide range of cuisines — from Arabic and Indian to Italian and Japanese. Whether you plan to launch a fine dining restaurant, a café, or a food truck, Dubai’s dynamic food scene welcomes innovative concepts.
Another key advantage is the government’s support for business owners. With streamlined licensing, multiple ownership options, and attractive free zones, starting a restaurant business in Dubai has become easier than ever.
Cost of Opening a Restaurant in Dubai
The cost of opening a restaurant in Dubai varies depending on your restaurant size, location, and concept. On average, you can expect to invest between AED 400,000 to AED 1.5 million.
Here’s a general breakdown of expenses:
- Trade license and registration: AED 15,000 – AED 30,000
- Restaurant rent and fit-out: AED 200,000 – AED 700,000
- Equipment and furniture: AED 100,000 – AED 400,000
- Staff hiring and training: AED 50,000 – AED 100,000
- Marketing and launch costs: AED 20,000 – AED 50,000
You can lower costs by starting with a smaller concept such as a café, food kiosk, or cloud kitchen. Free zones like Dubai South or IFZA also offer more affordable setup options with full ownership rights.
Steps to Opening a Restaurant in Dubai
To ensure a smooth setup process, follow these key steps:
- Develop a business plan – Define your restaurant’s concept, target audience, and menu strategy.
- Select a location – Choose a high-traffic area suited to your customer base.
- Reserve a trade name and get initial approval from the Department of Economic Development (DED).
- Apply for food and trade licenses through the Dubai Municipality and Food Control Department.
- Design and fit out your restaurant according to safety and hygiene standards.
- Hire and train staff to deliver quality service and maintain consistency.
- Market your restaurant through digital campaigns, delivery apps, and local partnerships.
