If you thought buffet nights were just about piling your plate until it resembled Mount Edible, think again. Toshi at Grand Millennium Hotel Dubai has moved into a seriously stunning new space on Level 1 – think high ceilings, grand interiors and a vibe that says “this is dinner, but dressed up.” And with the relaunch of Sushi & Beyond, the restaurant has taken everything diners loved about its themed nights and given them a glossier, more theatrical stage. Spoiler: the food still does the heavy lifting. The space just applauds it.
Toshi has always been the sort of place where the buffet feels curated, not chaotic. Now with Sushi Master Chef Kot and the warm, wise hands of Chef Nata – aka Mama Nata – steering the ship, every night becomes less “eat-all-you-can” and more “taste-a-story.” Chef Kot choreographs sushi and sashimi with the kind of precision that would make a samurai jealous, while Mama Nata brings almost three decades of Pan-Asian kitchen know-how, infusing dishes with homely textures, bold street-food energy and a personal touch that makes every bite feel like a mini-celebration.

What makes Sushi & Beyond different?
It’s the mash-up. The sushi spread sits at the centre of it all, but every night is elevated by a themed live station — from delicate dim sum to riotous seafood platters and cosy South Asian comfort food. It’s the buffet you’ll want to wear to dinner.
The Weekly Line-Up — A Night for Every Mood
Each night at Toshi comes with its own vibe and its own live station to keep things interesting. Here’s the lineup, so you can pick your evening mood like you pick a playlist.
Monday — Dim Sum
Start the week gently: steamed parcels, soft dumplings and delicate bites that pair beautifully with the ever-present sushi and sashimi. Perfect for easing into the week without regrets.
Tuesday, Thursday & Friday — Tokyo Night
Three nights of Japanese elegance where sushi takes centre stage. Expect over 30 varieties of fresh sushi and sashimi plus Japanese specialties served from live stations that highlight technique and artistry. If you love precision rolls and silky sashimi, these are your nights.
Wednesday — Thai Street Food Festival
Mama Nata turns the midweek into a flavour parade. Think tangy salads, smoky grilled skewers and noodles tossed with the kind of balance only someone raised on Thai kitchens can master. It’s bold, bright and deeply addictive.
Saturday — Seafood Night
The weekend bravado: shrimp, squid and an ocean’s bounty join forces with sushi to make Saturday the culinary equivalent of a seaside party. Bring your appetite and your sense of wonder.
Sunday — South Asian Night
Wind down the week with comforting curries, fragrant rice and regional street-food classics that soothe and satisfy — all harmonised with the fresh sushi staples you’ve come to expect.
Why go?
Because Toshi isn’t trying to be everything to everyone — it’s trying to be everything to your dinner night. The new venue adds gravitas; the chefs add heart and skill; and the rotating live stations mean you’ll get something new each visit. Whether you come for a precision-perfect piece of nigiri or a spoonful of Mama Nata’s nostalgic Thai goodness, you’ll leave with a full belly and a story to tell.
Come for the sushi, stay for the stories — and maybe sneak an extra helping of dim sum on Monday because that’s healthcare for the soul.
