Everything You Need to Know About Restaurant Renovation

How Often Should Restaurants Remodel?

Most restaurants renovate every 5-7 years, with minor updates every 2-3 years to stay competitive, meet evolving regulatory standards, and refresh the overall customer experience. Regular renovations help maintain compliance, improve operational efficiency, and keep the space aligned with changing dining trends and guest expectations.

What Permits Are Needed for Restaurant Renovation in Dubai?

Our team assists with approvals from Dubai Municipality and other authorities, ensuring compliance with local regulations.

What Design Trends Are Popular in Dubai’s Restaurant Scene?

Dubai’s restaurant design trends focus on luxury minimalism, sustainable materials, and experience-driven interiors. Popular elements include natural finishes like wood and stone, energy-efficient lighting, open and flexible seating layouts, and strong visual identity through statement lighting, feature walls, and branded accents. Many restaurants are also integrating technology-enabled ordering, smart lighting controls, and acoustically optimized spaces to enhance both guest experience and operational efficiency.

Can You Help Us Design a Theme or Ambiance?

Absolutely. We help select materials, colors, and decor to create a unique ambiance that aligns with your brand, from modern minimalism to classic elegance.

Can Renovation Work Be Done While the Restaurant Stays Open?

Yes, with our restaurant renovation service, we can phase the updates to keep sections of your restaurant open, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily operations.

How Much Does a Restaurant Renovation Cost in Dubai?

The cost of a restaurant renovation in Dubai depends on factors such as size, layout changes, kitchen upgrades, finishes, and approval requirements. Light refurbishments may cost significantly less than full-scale renovations involving MEP or structural work. Reno provides clear, itemised pricing upfront and offers Renovate Now, Pay Later options to help manage cash flow without delaying your project.

How Long Does a Restaurant Renovation Take in Dubai?

Timelines vary based on scope and approvals. Minor renovations may take 3-5 weeks, while full restaurant or kitchen renovations can take 8-12 weeks, including authority approvals.
