$$$$ (over Ur$600)

$ (up to Ur$200)
Prices are for a three-course meal with half a bottle of house wine or cheapest equivalent per person; they include service charges and taxes.
Arcadia
The rooftop restaurant of the Victoria Plaza Hotel (owned by Radisson) is a sparkling space decorated with crystal chandeliers and soft furnishings imported from Italy.
