CLAP is an internationally renowned fine dining Japanese restaurant that blends authentic flavors with contemporary flair. Part of AlphaMind Hospitality Group, CLAP offers an elevated culinary experience that seamlessly combines innovation, artistry, and vibrant atmosphere. First launched in Beirut in 2018, CLAP has since expanded internationally to Dubai, London – with an additional café concept, CLAP KA-FE – and to Ibiza, with the recently opened lifestyle destination CLAP HOUSE.
Each CLAP venue features distinctive designs by Noriyoshi Muramatsu of STUDIO GLITT, an exceptional Omakase experience, curated cocktails and a sophisticated setting with iconic views. Located on the highest terrace in DIFC, CLAP Dubai has been recognized by the Michelin Guide and World’s 50 Best Restaurants since 2022, in addition to being awarded with a toque by Gault & Millau every year since the guide’s Dubai launch, where it was also awarded for “Best Champagne Offering” in both 2023 and 2025.
The CLAP Dubai experience also extends to its music-led rooftop speakeasy ONGAKU – winner of TimeOut Awards’ “Bar with a View” in 2024, and highly commended as “Bar of the Year” in 2025 and “Best Brunch” in 2024.
