There are endless reasons to love Latin America; from the vivacious people to the rich culture along with its exotic and flavourful cuisine. Located in The Oberoi Dubai Hotel, Waka, the newly opened restaurant, brings a pivotal piece of Latin America to Dubai – complete with a menu of the region’s most sought-after dishes, infused with a creative culinary twist.

Deriving from the word ‘huaca‘ which means ‘blessed’, Waka creates a space where guests can enjoy a taste of Latin culture.  From the vibrant decoration on the floors to the artwork adorning the walls, every detail has been carefully curated.  Launched by the team behind the successful eatery, Craft Café in d3, Waka‘s vision is to offer a relaxed and immersive space for patrons to unwind and enjoy their dining experience.  The cuisine is a fusion of Latin American flavours combined with Japanese seasonings, using French techniques. With unparalleled passion instilled in every aspect of the brand, the team has worked hard to create something innovative and unique.
