Modern pan-Asian fusion restaurant Mogao Dubai welcomes you at the Digital Park

Modern pan-Asian restaurant Mogao opened its doors at the Digital Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis. This licensed restaurant is an extension of Socialicious, the primary brand established in Jumeirah Village Circle in 2017.

Mogao Dubai follows in the footsteps of Socialicious’ philosophy that delicious food can become a catalyst for uniting people and creating bonds. It aspires to emulate a sense of togetherness. As the Irish Proverb goes, “Laughter is brightest where food is best”, Mogao aims to bring this comfort and peace to the table. Mogao’s 3 mascots, Ai, Yi and Lee which mean love, happiness and joy, are the very essence of what it strives to achieve.

Mogao follows a quarterly menu cycle which allows the restaurant to keep releasing new dishes based on seasonality and customer feedback resulting in a more personal and tailored dining experience.


Mogao’s interiors are inspired by the most common yet cherished cookware in Asian cooking – the humble bamboo steamer and the versatile wok. The restaurant features a modern interior with earthy tones – instantly making you all warm and cozy. The dark Asian-Esque ambience will deliver an experience of dining in a cave. The sophisticated interiors and strikingly stunning décor set the stage for an evening of fine dining.
