Bushman's Restaurant & Bar

Dinner was great, the food is fresh, very well presented and tasty, my advice is to have Kangaroo Fillet. The service is very good, everyone was friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Hannah, Sai, and Venkat.

We specifically came to Bushman's last night for our anniversary dinner. We live in Dubai and were not staying at the resort but made a reservation and mad the drive out to The Palm specifically to visit this restaurant. Once reception asked if we were staying at the resort and we answered no we were put in the back of the restaurant and promptly forgotten. It took 20 minutes to get water ordered and menu's brought. During this time the Sommelier came and when asked if we desired wine and I said no were once again left saying she could not take an order for cocktails. Finally we had a waiter come by and we put in our order but he also would not take the drinks order instead saying he would return and take the bar order later. When he finally did return it was to tell us that the oysters we ordered were unavailable. We changed to the scallops, and as he was leaving we had to ask him if we could finally put in our drink order, he had forgotten that we needed to do this still. While we waited our drinks arrived but they were the wrong drink order, at this point we just drank them because we didn't know if getting it fixed would ever happen. When the scallops arrived they were well presented but the flavor profiles with the beef on the platter did not blend well. The scallops themselves were high quality but the overall approach to the presentation and flavors could use an update. By this point our cocktails were empty and would remain that way until well into our mains despite asking multiple times to order different ones. The staff kept offering to just bring us more and we had to keep saying no. This seemed to be a common problem because the table next to us ordered 1 additional beer and the staff brought 2, they were smart enough to refuse the additional drink. As for the mains we had the Wagyu tomahawk and the baked salmon. The salmon itself was quite good however it lacked the color of well prepared salmon. It was light pink and appeared more steamed than baked as there was no Maillard reaction present on the fish. The tomahawk was well prepared but bland. It was served with a series of sauces which is normally how poor quality is hidden with good beef requiring only a pinch of salt and maybe some pepper to balance the beef flavor but this one seemed to be specifically under seasoned to be served with the sauces. Not an ideal situation for a wagyu steak. We finally got our second round of drinks as we were ready to pay for the bill so were stuck drinking them instead of just getting out of there and going home as we desired. For 1500 AED we expected much better. Will not be coming back and not recommending to our circle.

Awesome place to enjoy Steak & BBQ meat options. The place also offers live music.

Love love love the seared kangaroo . Must try if you have not. The 12-Hour Braised Angus Beef Cheek is the best I have tried so far. Serving of the food is a little slow but it is worth the wait. Will definitely be back again to try out other items on the menu.

The best restaurant at Anantara! It has absolutely no rivals! I found it magnificent, cosy, nicely decorated and well lighting (which is no small thing and not easy to find). Australian influenced dishes prepared with great skill and beautifully plated. Excellent cuisine, quick and attentive service, incredible staff from first to last! Wonderful, attentive waiters with a smile on their faces, Special thanks to Hannah and Marie for their welcome, to Sai, who was wonderful at giving advice, and to Victoria for her class and professionalism. I will not forget them easily!! Congratulations. I will always come back and not only when I 'll be a guest at Anantara♥️
