In 2024, the DLC Guide made its prestigious debut in Dubai. Led by Jimmy Mistry alongside esteemed auditors from the Dubai Chapter, the guide honored exceptional restaurants across the city. The DLC Guide is a new offering from Della Leaders Club. It is the world’s first independent global rating system for luxury restaurants, hotels, street food joints, bars, and lounges, curated by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs worldwide.

Our guide’s uniqueness lies in its rigorous process, created by Jimmy Mistry. We meticulously select seven auditors from each chapter within the DLC Ecosystem. These auditors vote to determine the best in their city. The voting process is completely online and transparent, allowing visibility into each other’s votes. Auditors have the power to change ratings in real-time, creating a unique, dynamic, and trustworthy rating system. This unique methodology ensures the authenticity and credibility of our guide, not only for our DLC members but also for entrepreneurs worldwide who are food and lifestyle connoisseurs.

The 2024 edition celebrated culinary excellence in Dubai, spotlighting outstanding achievers. Among the honorees were Salvaje, led by Chef Fermin Azkue for its imaginative menu that offers a mix of Japanese and Latin cuisine, and Kinoya, led by Chef Neha Mishra for its Japanese cuisine. Our auditors are reviewing some renowned restaurants and will add them to the list soon.
