Boatman’s Hub is inspired by the rich coastal traditions of Mangalore, Goa, and Malvan, and brings together these three regional cuisines in one thoughtfully curated menu. The restaurant is designed to transport guests to the shoreline, blending traditional décor with modern comfort and live duet performances every evening that set a soulful, seaside ambiance.
At the heart of this concept is Award-Winning Celebrity Chef Sarita Chavan, flown in specially from Goa, who has crafted the menu using her signature hand-picked spice blends to recreate bold, authentic flavors that celebrate the essence of India’s western coast.
The Boatman’s Hub is poised to fill a culinary gap in Dubai’s seafood scene, offering a menu that is rich, nostalgic, and truly regional in character.

It’s more than just a restaurant-it’s a celebration of coastal culture, heritage, and cuisine. We saw a clear gap in the market for truly authentic Mangalorean, Goan, and Malvani seafood, and with the expertise of Chef Sarita, we’ve brought that soulful experience to Dubai. I’m proud to see this concept come to life under the Fortune banner, and we look forward to welcoming guests who want to explore coastal India-right here in the heart of the UAE."
