Where to eat: the 50 best restaurants in Abu Dhabi

I had such a nice experience here ✨. I tried the Dim Sum Rainbow Collection 🥟with a variety of seafood, meat, and chicken — and honestly, the shrimp dim sum was my favorite, so fresh and flavorful 😋 The Sweet & Sour Chicken Soup 🍲 was amazing — rich, flavorful, and comforting — definitely something I’ll always order when I come back 💯 I also tried the Hakka Hand Pulled Noodles 🍜 — they were okay, not the best I’ve had. The Crispy Chicken with Dry Chilli and Almonds 🌶️🥜 was a little spicy and tasty, but more of a classic dish than something truly unique Overall, a beautiful location, great service, and some standout dishes (especially that soup and shrimp dim sum!) 🌟

We went with our daughter and the service was excellent. Our waitress took time to go through the menu and explain options and make recommendations for us. The food was stunningly presented and tasted amazing. Would highly recommend the peking duck amd caviar, a really nice combination. The dim sum were simply beautiful to look at. The alaskan lobster was also beautifully presented and tasted sublime. This restaurant is going to hit your pocket hard, we were £600 for two adults and a two year old (who didnt get her own dishes, except a boiled rice). We had the duck, a couple of starters plus one main each, a glass of champagne and soft drinks. It is a “special night out” type budget, but would highly recommend!

The food is divine, the restaurant is beautiful, and the service is outstanding. Our waitress, Camila, was attentive, warm, and charming. She made us feel completely comfortable and well taken care of. We had the signature menu, and every dish was exceptional. I also love the layout of the restaurant. It feels like a little maze, which makes each section feel private in a cozy and elevated way. We sat on the patio overlooking the Etihad Towers and it was stunning. We were celebrating my birthday and the staff made the evening feel extra special. Valet parking is available, which is convenient. Highly recommend and looking forward to going back!

I had the pleasure of dining at Hakkasan Abu Dhabi during my stay at Emirates Palace, and what made the evening truly unforgettable was the outstanding service. A special thank you to Alina, Camila, and So — their professionalism, warm attitude, and attention to detail elevated the whole experience. They were attentive without being intrusive, always anticipating what I might need, and added a personal touch that made me feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. The cuisine was excellent — refined flavors, beautiful presentation, and signature dishes that exceeded expectations. But it was the team’s hospitality that made the dinner feel not just luxurious, but personal and memorable. Hakkasan Abu Dhabi is not only about exquisite food and elegant atmosphere, but also about people who make you feel special. Thank you once again to the wonderful staff for such an exceptional evening.

Celebrating my birthday at Hakkasan last night was an absolute delight! The ambiance was truly enchanting, creating a memorable experience for all of us. Imad's impeccable service and attention to detail were commendable. The delicious food, a symphony of flavors, made the evening even more special. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a wonderful dining experience.

Hakkasan remains a forever favorite — consistently delivering exceptional service and outstanding food. Every visit is a culinary experience, with standout dishes like the smoked wagyu beef, mooli puff, mixed nut lettuce wraps, delicate dim sum, sweet and sour chicken, and the iconic black cod. Each dish is beautifully crafted and full of flavor. It’s also surprisingly kid-friendly — little ones are offered coloring kits, making it a great choice for families. I recommend visiting for lunch or early evening when the atmosphere is more relaxed. For added convenience, Hakkasan offers private valet parking and has its own dedicated entrance, as well as direct access through the Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental Hotel — making the entire experience seamless from start to finish.

The staff at Hakkasan Abu Dhabi were polite and friendly, and the service was fine. However, the food was extremely disappointing — completely tasteless and far below the standards of a luxury restaurant. We couldn’t even finish our dishes because the flavor was so poor. In addition, the DJ and the music were terrible and didn’t match the restaurant’s atmosphere at all, making the experience unpleasant. Overall, although the staff were nice, the food and ambiance were very disappointing. Definitely not worth the price or the reputation.

I always enjoy dinner at Zuma! The food is consistently delicious, and I’ve never been disappointed. Whether you’re after a lively dinner with music or drinks and dancing at the bar, the vibe is spot on. The menu is packed with great options, the staff are attentive, and the DJ keeps the energy up—especially later in the night.

First time visiting Zuma Abu Dhabi and also my first time trying sushi. The vibes are amazing and the atmosphere really stands out. Make sure to book in advance, especially on weekends. We sushi, Wagyu beef, calamari and dessert. Everything tasted great, especially the Wagyu and calamari. Prices are on the higher side ($$$$), but you’re paying for quality, service and a premium dining experience. Worth trying for a special night out.

Good Food Good service Unfortunately we were al there in the after noon , for quick lunch with reservation. . Atmosphere very loud at lunch time . A lot of office people there to get the lunch discount, Sort of a continuous showing off arena . Not calm at all , speak loud :) and about yakht :) etc . I was with my daughter , 2 guys talking about yakht and like show off competition between each other . So we moved & had peace. A lot of like buisness lunch meetings ! With free food from the company bosses . They had to wait to order their food cause the bosss was still talking for an hour . Anyway we enjoyed Service was absolutely good Head chef was at home they said

Visited Zuma twice and I can now tell it is one of my favorite restaurant in Abu dhabi! Love the atmosphere which blend modernity and Japanese touches. The food is excellent, I highly recommend the seared salmon (small portions, can be shared if you order more dishes), the chawan mushi dessert (mousse and crème with bits of fresh exotic fruits) and as a mocktail the bincho gilet (Instagram worthy drink). Also the staff was very welcoming and attentive to our needs. A big thanks to Matias who was our server and was "aux petit soins". Hope to visit again very soon ✨

Zuma Abu Dhabi exudes contemporary elegance, blending a vibrant ambiance with refined Japanese cuisine. Each dish is artfully crafted, offering a perfect harmony of flavor and presentation. The service is polished and attentive, making every visit feel effortlessly sophisticated and memorable

Ok this was hard, the place is beautiful situated next to adgm. The views are lovely at night and booking a a must. Totally the sort of place you would go for a business lunch or night out with your partner. My experience this time could have been better. Bear in mind this is against the price point they have set. The dishes that I felt were worth it was the fried tofu and the lobster maki. Probably the curse of being a Google reviewer I was probably a littke of all the other food presented from the seasoning to depth of flavour. Would probably give them another go. I hear the lunch menu is good

I have been dining at Zuma Abu Dhabi for over 11 years, and I have never experienced something this alarming. Today, I found a strange soft, purplish object in my salad much larger than what was later shown to me and it was breaking apart when touched. The moment I saw it, I felt immediate stomach discomfort and a strong urge to vomit. For a fine dining restaurant of this level, this is extremely unacceptable. The team told me they would “investigate,” but this should not happen in a place known for hosting high-profile guests and operating in a country with strict health and safety standards. I am truly disappointed, and I hope the management takes this matter seriously. This experience was shocking and far from what I expect from Zuma.

I expected an amazing food and impeccable service, as you should from one of the best restaurants of the city. However it was rather a disappointment. Sweet and sour pork was very hard and cold, pork ribs got cold fast (we sat outside) and taste - hard and dry and smoked, was really far from what you’d expect. Dim sums were big, which was good, but taste wise they failed to impress. Beijing duck (whole) was served in a strange way, so you wouldn’t recognize it, and pancakes were strange and folded for some reason A how did they expect them to be unfolded with chopsticks? Crushed cucumbers were in unexpected red sauce, which was not going well with well known dish and garlic, I afraid. But aubergines were very good. Service was good, but time from time we couldn’t see waiters and they should have definitely pay more attention on how to place a lot of plates on the smallish table. But general service level was very well. So not amazing experience at all.

The dim sum is freshly made and full of flavor. The Peking duck was rich and flavorful, with perfectly crispy skin and tender, juicy mea! I loved it. Each bite had the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors.

Absolutely fantastic experience! Dai Poi Dong stands out with its warm atmosphere and top-notch service. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel truly welcome. The Honey Rib Pork is a must try perfectly cooked, slightly crispy on the outside and tender inside, with a deliciously balanced flavor. They also offer a great selection of sake, which I highly recommend exploring if you’re a fan. Overall, a place with great food, kind people, and a cozy vibe. Can’t wait to come back!

Amazing food, we had the whole duck which comes with soup and a lettuce wrap, more than enough for two! Cooking smell strong inside the restaurant.

Enjoyed the business lunch along with half a duck. Food is amazing here. Andry was attentive to my husband and I, ensuring that the food was served orderly. Very pleasant experience.

One of the best brunch on town, delicious food and nice selection of drinks. Special thanks to Saw and Jennie, such a wonderful service!

Came here for a business lunch with a colleague. The food is really amazing. Waitresses are knowledgable and friendly. Service did get a bit slow after appetizers came out. Our main dish was slow to come out. However, everything was still good. Will most definitely be back.

I had the pleasure of dining at Li Beirut, a Michelin-rated Lebanese restaurant that is proudly featured in the Michelin 2025 Guide for Abu Dhabi. Located in the luxurious Hilton Conrad at the Etihad Towers, this gem combines world-class dining with an unforgettable atmosphere. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy, inviting ambiance. The soft lighting, the decor, and the soft music created a perfect backdrop for an authentic dining experience. A special shout-out to Ibrahim, who took care of us throughout the evening. His service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly. He made great recommendations from the menu, ensuring we got the best of what the restaurant had to offer. His attention to detail and commitment to making our experience enjoyable did not go unnoticed. The food itself was outstanding. From the creamy hummus to the perfectly grilled kebabs and fresh tabbouleh, every dish was bursting with flavor. The portions were generous, and the flavors transported me straight to Lebanon. Overall, I highly recommend this Michelin-rated restaurant for anyone craving delicious Lebanese cuisine and exceptional service. Ibrahim's hospitality truly made the evening memorable, and the overall atmosphere was just the cherry on top. With its stunning location and Michelin distinction, it’s a place you won’t want to miss. I can't wait to return!

From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond, demonstrating exceptional care and attention. They thoughtfully prepared a delicious meal tailored precisely to my special dietary requirements. Throughout the entire dinner service, they were attentive and proactive, ensuring every need was met with genuine warmth. The food itself was truly outstanding. Each dish was expertly crafted and bursting with flavour, a testament to the remarkable talent and skill of the chefs. They deserve immense praise for such a memorable culinary experience. Best kunafa I have ever had.

My evening at Li Beirut was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived at the Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers until we reluctantly left, every detail was executed with grace and care. The ambiance is elegant and warm dimmed lighting, tasteful décor, and soft background music set the perfect tone for a sophisticated dinner. The terrace view over the sea added a lovely touch, especially as the sun dipped toward the horizon.  Service was exceptional. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered recommendations without being pushy; the staff were attentive, friendly, and seemed genuinely passionate about the food.  As for cuisine, the Lebanese classics at Li Beirut are elevated to an art form. Every dish we tried was beautifully presented, rich in authentic flavor, and balanced in seasoning. Highlights included the mezzes, the mixed grill deliciously charred and perfectly cooked. We had fruit dish and was fresh and high-quality fresh and decorated in a very nice way. I couldn’t take pictures for all our dishes as I was into the food and forgot to take more pictures, but I just posted what I could take pictures for. For high end restaurant prices lean toward the higher end, the overall experience justifies every dirham. This is a place to go for special occasions, for someone who appreciates fine dining, or simply to treat yourself to something extraordinary. Highly recommended Li Beirut delivers both in taste and experience.

Absolutely outstanding! Ducas at the front desk was very welcoming and had an amazing smile! 😊 The Arabic mixed grill was also outstanding and one of the best I’ve ever had! The ice cream sundae was also very yummy! The service provided by Phinao was spectacular also! Highly recommended!

We visited the restaurant as part of our half-board package at Conrad Abu Dhabi Hotel. Although I can't say, we were surprised with some extraordinary tasting experience, we still quite enjoyed the traditional Lebanese dishes. Everything we tried was delicious. And their presentation was beautiful too.

We had great family dinner in Li Beirut. The food was delicious. Service was great by Ebrahim. Very nice atmosphere with soft music and dimmed lights. Can definitely recommend it.

Fantastic service from Phinao and delicious food! Lovely to sit in the outdoor area and enjoy the view :)

Butcher & Still is one of the finest restaurants in Abu Dhabi. They serve top-quality food and the best cuts of meat. The staff is very friendly, service is quick, and they pay attention to every detail. This is not my first time here, and I always love choosing this place for my birthday or any special occasion because it never fails to give me a memorable experience. 👌🏼

We ordered soups, shared plate of various steak cuts and finally the famous tower for dessert. To say everything was super tasty is an understatement. Our server, Gaurab, did an amazing job at making us feel welcome. Service was quick and even without reservation we got the best seats available. Surely one of the best places in Abu Dhabi. Bring good mood and empty belly here.

An unforgettable experience at Butcher & Still, Four Seasons Abu Dhabi! Today, I had the absolute pleasure of being invited by the amazing Chef Marshall to enjoy lunch at Butcher & Still, and it was truly an extraordinary experience from start to finish. The food was beyond incredible — every dish was crafted with such skill, flavor, and attention to detail that it turned lunch into a true culinary journey. A special shoutout to Jigger, the bartender, who is nothing short of brilliant! His creativity and passion shine through in every cocktail he makes — each one was perfectly balanced and full of character. Thank you, Chef Marshall and Jigger, for making this experience so special. The hospitality, the atmosphere, and the flavors were all unforgettable. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a top level dining experience in Abu Dhabi!

🔹 The Best Dining Experience in the UAE – Butcher & Still From the moment we walked in, we knew this would be a special night. We started with the appetizers: the bone marrow and the crêpe tart, and honestly, they were some of the most delightful appetizers we’ve ever had — especially the crêpe tart, which was absolutely unforgettable. For the main course, we had the Ribeye and the Strip Loin, and both were cooked to perfection. Every bite was pure joy. The ambiance is outstanding. The hostess at the reception instantly made us feel welcome and even happier as she helped us choose our table. The service staff treat you like old friends — warm, genuine, and attentive. The music was just right, and the crowd was classy. And the view of the sea? Simply breathtaking. We’ve visited many top restaurants in the U.S., Europe, and Egypt — but this one truly stole our hearts. Without a doubt, the best spot in the UAE, not just Abu Dhabi.

A nice bar if you want to have a drink or meet friends. The food is great, especially if you’d like to try something new. The service is excellent, and the staff are very attentive. The location is inside the Four Seasons Hotel

This restaurant is located at the Four Seasons. The staff from the hotel highly recommend it and they were not wrong. From the moment that we arrive until the moment that we left, we felt that staff at the restaurant was always trying to make our experience as enjoyable as possible. Our waiter also showed us the entire restaurant as well as the wine cellar. We came here for my wife’s birthday and they made sure that she had the best time of her life. They had a private room with a nAl Capone inspired theme with vibes from Chicago and it was fun to walk around and see it. I am a steak guy and I am sometimes can be too demanding with a steak but the guys here really have something special going on. I had the porterhouse and it was just perfect. The quality of the meat was great. We also tried the Carpaccio and it was ok. For dessert we try the crème brûlée and it was delicious. Our sides were mashed potato and creamed spinach and they were also OK. There are several options for wines and steaks and I highly recommend getting the porterhouse. The service here was fantastic and we really enjoyed our dinner. Thanks to the entire staff of this restaurant for making our dinner memorable.

First time to Butcher & Still. Great service, staffs are attentive and welcoming. Nice ambience except for the slightly loud music. Nevertheless, got used to it after a while. Food is good, huge portions and the steaks are well cooked. I especially liked the Baked Brie Cheese as it goes really well with the fresh berries and honey! What a pleasant surprise! 🥳 Wanted to try the dessert but was too full. Definitely will be back next time to try out the dessert! “Next time, Baby.. Next time!” 🍨 🍰

They have a good selection of Lebanese cuisine to choose from. The food was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed every dish we ordered. The Mix Grill platter was brilliant - the meats were well seasoned and cooked. Make sure you save room for desserts. Finally, we made to feel welcomed from the time we walked in till the time we left. The owners were constantly ensuring that the service quality was being maintained.

What a magical experience! The food created a welcomed nostalgia with an elevated twist! The flavors were unbelievable! The service was exceptional! Majd, our server guided me through the menu with pride and he made me feel right at home! Thank you Beirut Sur Mer .. I just wish Seattle was a little closer! I would be eating here on a weekly basis;)

Beirut Sur Mer An exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The food was of outstanding quality—beautifully presented, rich in flavor, and skillfully prepared. Service was equally impressive. The staff were professional, attentive, and well-informed about the menu, offering thoughtful recommendations that enhanced our experience. Dishes were served promptly and efficiently, contributing to a seamless and enjoyable evening. The total bill was AED 1,400 for seven guests, averaging AED 200 per person. While on the higher end, the pricing reflects the restaurant’s premium setting, quality ingredients, and elevated service. Highly recommended for those seeking upscale Lebanese cuisine in a refined atmosphere. Thanks Nader and Beirut Sur Mer Team Hussain 🇰🇼

Was amazing experience food was amazing service was great staff (Samer) was so friendly a helpful i highly recommend all to try it and experience the Arabic and Lebanese tast ❤️❤️

We had a splendid experience at Beirut Sur Mer. The food was amazing, and the hospitality of the staff especially Mr. Rami was top-notch. They made my wife's birthday feel truly special with their exceptional service.

This restaurant needs serious management review. This is my fourth visit, and every single time the place is completely empty, yet they refuse to let me sit at certain tables because they’re “reserved.” The strange part? Those same tables remain empty from the moment I arrive until the moment I leave. I even told them in advance exactly what would happen, you’ll tell me it’s reserved, I’ll order, eat, and leave, and it will still be empty. Yet they still refused, in a completely empty restaurant. It’s incredibly poor hospitality and makes absolutely no sense. Whoever is in charge of this policy needs to reconsider how they treat customers, because this kind of experience pushes people away. Their food is good, but with this kind of attitude, it’s hard to even enjoy it.

We recently visited Sur Mer at Saadiyat Beach, and overall we had a wonderful experience. The mezze dishes were absolutely fantastic – we were two adults and two children, and ordered around 7–8 mezze along with two grilled dishes. The service was excellent: attentive, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. The atmosphere was lovely as well, with soft background music, outdoor seating, and a beautiful view. The only downside, similar to several other grill restaurants, was the taste of the meat. It had a particular smell and flavor that is difficult to describe, and even friends who recommended the restaurant had warned us about this. We still wanted to try it ourselves, and unfortunately the meat did not meet our expectations. We will definitely return, but next time we’ll stick to the chicken and the delicious mezze, which were truly outstanding.

Nice and relaxing view overlooking the sea. Okonomiyaki we ordered is nothing near the actual one. It’s more like a flat pancake with toppings. Other food was good, but didn’t wow us.

This one of my favourite spots in Abu Dhabi. Especially winter time. The vibes amazing, make sure to be there on weekend after 5pm they have live jazz DJ. Shout out to Nader for his extraordinary service. Was there for more than 5 hours. Enjoying the beautify sea, weather, food and drinks and for sure the music. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had a fantastic experience at Buddha-Bar, Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi. The atmosphere was truly special – stylish, relaxing, and vibrant at the same time. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. I especially enjoyed the music – the DJ played an amazing selection of modern tracks that perfectly matched the mood. Everything was just on point. Highly recommend!

Buddha-Bar Beach on Saadiyat Island is just stunning, especially as the sun starts to go down. The beachfront location is perfect, and the whole place has such a chic, relaxed vibe. The food was amazing but for me, the real highlight was enjoying that beautiful sunset with the fantastic music. DJ Elena really knows how to set the mood. If you're in Abu Dhabi, you have to experience a sunset here.

Good evening. I love your hotel. This is my fourth stay there. I'm sitting at the Buddha Bar today, and I can't figure out why the Latin American music keeps blasting all evening. Fire the DJ's girlfriend!!!

The ambiance of the Buddha Bar by the beach was very nice, with a great service. The drinks were really good and some quite innovative. The down side was mainly the food, it was very average.

This place has always been an example of great service and my favorite spot. I used to bring all my guests here and recommended it to everyone. But today I am truly shocked by the service. I came as a walk-in guest, alone. No one greeted me at the reception, and I had to wait. After some time, a supervisor or manager rushed out, told me to wait, and then simply gestured for me to follow him. I felt like I was at a bus station. Despite many free tables, I was seated in a corner. When I placed my order, they didn’t even bring napkins. I tried to get the waiter’s attention to repeat my order, but he completely ignored me. I am extremely disappointed by today’s visit.

Fouquet's Abu Dhabi is located within the Louvre complex. The venue is stylish and impressive in the extreme. The service is cheerful and attentive. I chose to eat lightly - two starter. They were both delicious - the beef carpaccio portion was very generous. I should separately mention the house champagne - it was particularly yummy. ...a memory to treasure.

Overall, a pleasant lunch experience with my mother at Fouquet’s! The restaurant is spacious with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. We chose to sit outside, the area was nicely shaded with a lovely breeze. The food was exquisite. The fresh mini baguette with butter was a delightful start. We ordered one full-course lunch set and one à la carte meal. The octopus appetizer was fresh and flavorful, and I especially enjoyed the touch of fermented onion. The green salad was generous and packed with ingredients - kale, olives, and baby peppers among them. For mains, we had the Omani shrimps and the lamb. We weren’t asked how we preferred the lamb cooked, and it arrived slightly undercooked for our taste, which was a bit disappointing. The shrimp, however, was outstanding - the coconut curry sauce was rich and captivating. Dessert was the cherry on top: a delicious profiterole with ice cream and chocolate sauce, paired with two long espressos. It would have easily been a 5-star experience if not for the first impression. The hostess who seated us made us feel slightly unwelcome - she suggested we go to the other café when we asked to see the à la carte menu instead of the business lunch menu, though we only wanted to compare options. She also initially seated us at a small table close to the sun, even though the restaurant was nearly empty. We later moved ourselves to a more comfortable shaded four-seater. The other waiters were very nice and helpful. Despite the rocky start, the food and overall ambiance made for a lovely lunch.

Beautiful interior, attentive staff, and flawless service. The food was absolutely delicious — we ordered 8 different dishes and every single one was outstanding. Prices are very reasonable for the quality. We had a wonderful time and left completely satisfied. Highly recommend this place and a big thank you to the team for making the evening special — they even surprised me with a card!

The experience was good overall. The food was flavourful and perfectly cooked. Danushka was very attentive and did a great job with the flambé. All the other staff were also very friendly and helpful. The paper stuck up on the window was the only detractor.

The food was good but the restaurant is abit warm considering the summer sun at the time we dine in around 4pm. The security screening was unexpected as we began to take photos thinking it was the enterance but it was the security screening area where the security was very unfriendly to greet us. I think you should put someone at the security or put the sign there to warn the customer that security area no photos or camera.

Exceptional experience. I can see how this is a Michelin rated 3x in a row. French nouvelle cuisine at its finest. We had the burger done medium (server medium rare, but that's ok) and lamb leg confit

Went for the Bastille day brunch and we chose the house package (AED 400 per person). We were served everything on the menu (in pic). It was great food, one after the other. Absolutely no complaints at all! The butter from Maison Bordier was an excellent and pleasant surprise :) The standout dishes *if* I had to choose, were: - entrees - carpaccio de boeuf a la fleur de sel, haricot verts amandine, terrine de foie gras de canard avec chutney de figues; - plats principaux - entrecote grillee and rigatoni a ala truffe. -For desserts, the crepe suzette was of course the best way to end the meal! Of course the other desserts were good too, but the crepe outdid them all. The wines in the house package were great too and we tried all 3 - white, rose, and red. Great food and amazing value for money. Highly recommend!

I visited LPM bar on a Tuesday night, and the bartender was incredibly genuine and welcoming, Mr Frederick. He offered me drinks that perfectly matched my preferences, and I highly recommend him and the team! On chilly nights, it's a great spot to enjoy and appreciate the beauty of the place. The flowers in the center were stunning, adding an artistic touch to the interior. Later, he even offered me a coffee liqueur shot!

Elegant vibes, flawless French-Mediterranean flavors, and service that makes you feel truly taken care of. The yellowtail carpaccio was fresh and delicate, perfectly balanced with citrus notes. The shrimp in olive oil was light yet rich. The rigatoni with truffle and mushrooms was indulgent and comforting — creamy, earthy, and beautifully presented. And the beef carpaccio was a standout, thinly sliced and seasoned just right, a perfect classic done to perfection.

We celebrated our wedding lunch at LPM, and it was overall a lovely experience. The ambiance was beautiful and the food was exceptional. We ordered a three-course meal with champagne, including duck, escargot, salmon ceviche, steak, and salads, all perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The only downside was that the service was quite slow, and the dishes for our guests were served one by one rather than together, so we couldn’t all enjoy our meal at the same time. The team kindly offered dessert once they realized the delay, which we appreciated. While the service didn’t fully meet LPM’s usual high standards, we still truly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.

I go to LPM when I don’t want to worry about quality of food, service and ambiance. I walked-in with no reservations and was welcomed by the team like a long lost relative. Quickly got seated and presented with the menus. Past experience told me that most anything I order, should be a great choice so I went for their daily lunch specials. How can you go wrong? We had an amazing meal and superb service like you expect from LPM.

It was an unforgettable day and the staff were the best, especially Yahya, he took care of every detail, was always smiling and served us with his full energy that filled the place with positivity. The food was excellent and I left the dessert choice to Yahya and it was the best decision, everything was delicious and 5 stars! I will definitely come again!

Had a really lovely dinner at LPM! Big thanks to Ayman for going out of his way to find us a great table, it really made our night. And shoutout to Pailin for her amazing service and recommendation ! She was super friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Great food, great vibes, and such a welcoming team. Definitely coming back!

Exceptional service from start to finish. jose was attentive, friendly, and highly professional. He anticipated our needs without being intrusive and made excellent recommendations. His timing, presentation, and hospitality elevated the entire dining experience. Truly one of the best service experiences I’ve had at LPM.

The food here was amazing, we finished everything and left satisfied and I highly recommend plate sharing since there are so many great menu items. The only con was our food took forever and our server kept forgetting what we ordered and so we had one dish missing which was a bit annoying. Other than that, I like this place a lot and a great option if you’re into sea view dining.

Fantastic location and evening out here. Excellent service all round, and the menu was straightforward and not overly complicated. The food… superb - with perfect, and generous main course portions for sharing too. Worth a visit when staying at the hotel or for a special event if you’re in AD.

Outstanding pan Asian restaurant with very generous portion size with sublime flavours served with a smile at an eclectic setting by the Persian Gulf at St Regis Restaurant!! A special shout out to Adit!!!

A very nice restaurant with terrace for a romantic dinner. The food was tasty, especially the Green Curry and the duck pancakes. The Tom Yum soup was unfortunately of no taste and too watery. The staff was very friendly but not so attentive- for example they cleaned 2 plates out of 4 from our table and for the other 2 we had to ask to be taken away after waiting for 15 minutes.

We had our desserts at Sontaya. We love the atmosphere here. Its cozy and warm. It has a nice interior and the outdoor. It is surrounded with water which makes the place cool.

Such an amazing place for a night out and if you are in the mood for a different experience. The ambience and place just take you to an exotic place, calm and just away from the busy city. We were welcomed with a smile and guided to our table. The staff is very professional and friendly. Adit helped us during our dining experience and he was super helpful. He even recommended the dessert once we asked about his suggestion. We ordered a variety of dishes and all of them were mouthwatering and very well done. The taste is super fresh and presentation is great. We ordered tuna tartar, seafood dumpling, beef satay, duck rolls and for the main we ordered salmon and tenderloin steak It is a must visit place. Add it to your list☺️

Had a beautiful dinner here with my wife — the atmosphere felt magical and the food was full of flavor. The setting by the water made the night feel special. A perfect place for a romantic evening.

Dinner at Benihana tonight was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we sat down, the service was top-notch, and our chef, Jason, made the experience unforgettable. His skills on the grill were impressive, flipping shrimp tails into his hat, creating fiery onion volcanoes, and cooking everything to perfection. Not only was he entertaining, but his attention to detail with our food was outstanding. The flavors were incredible, the fried rice was perfectly seasoned, and the veggies were fresh and crisp. The atmosphere was lively and fun, making it a great spot for a celebration or just a night out. Jason’s humor and interaction with our table made the meal even more enjoyable. The entire staff was attentive, ensuring our drinks were always full and we had everything we needed. If you’re looking for delicious food, a show, and an all-around amazing time, Benihana (with Chef Jason!)is the place to go. I will definitely be back!

Had a great stay at Beach Rotana! Mary and Leah were absolutely wonderful—super friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. They really made the whole experience feel special. Big thanks to them for making my trip extra memorable!

Our visit to Benihana Abu Dhabi was an absolute treat! The food was not only delicious but also prepared with incredible skill and flair right in front of us a true dining show. Every ingredient tasted fresh and full of flavor, and the portions were generous. The atmosphere was vibrant yet comfortable, making it perfect for both families and couples. The staff were outstanding and friendly, attentive, and full of energy, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a mix of great food, entertainment, and top-class service, Benihana Abu Dhabi is the place to go. Highly recommended — 5 stars!

Benihana is a classic. Great atmosphere and ambiance and amazing food. Our waitress Sasha was very helpful and welcoming. CJ and ED made us the most delicious sushi boat. We always enjoy our time here.

Thanks for making my birthday so special. The fantastic customer service began immediately as we arrived and just kept going!! Michael (our Chef from just outside Tokyo ….. Manila) was amazing! I GM felt guilty eating the fabulous Teppinyaki after the effort he put in to make it!! See you next time!

We had an amazing dining experience with the live cooking it made the evening so unique and memorable! Perfect spot for a special occasion, and the atmosphere was just right. A huge thank you to Chef Ganson for the incredible food and warm hospitality. Highly recommended!

The service and food is amazing. The tepantaki grill by Chef Michael and our hostess Sasha were very friendly. Kids loved the way chef did the tricks. It was fun. Will be coming back again.

Memorable birthday celebration. We went to the Oak room to celebrate my birthday. It was truly memorable and nice experience. Food is nice, service remarkable and atmosphere memorable. Team made sure we had warm welcome, tasty dinner with all our preferences and surprise farewell with cake and nice touch: gifting flower and postcard from the restaurant. Separate thank you to Prasa and Mehmet, they took special care of us during dinner . Well done! We will definitely come back!

Last Friday, while visiting Abu Dhabi for an event with my husband, we stumbled upon what I can only describe as an unforgettable fine dining experience. From the moment we stepped in, the atmosphere was flawless, quiet, calming, and tastefully elegant. The interior design struck the perfect balance between modern sophistication and cozy charm. You instantly feel like you're in for something special. But let’s talk food, because that’s where this place truly shines. Every single dish we tried was bursting with rich, deep flavors, yet never overpowering. The tenderness of the meat, the perfectly seasoned appetizers, and the fresh, vibrant salads all spoke one thing: craftsmanship in the kitchen. It’s rare to find a place where everything, from ambiance to service to food, is so thoughtfully executed. I genuinely wish they had a branch in Dubai because I’m already planning my next visit. If you’re looking for a tasteful, heartwarming dinner with your loved ones in Abu Dhabi… this hidden gem is your go-to. Words don’t do justice to the experience, you simply have to feel it for yourself.

From the moment I walked into The Oak Room, I felt genuinely welcomed. Every member of the team was warm, attentive, and impeccable in their service. A special mention goes to Phyo, whose professionalism and hospitality made the evening truly memorable. She went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. The chef’s recommendation was absolutely spot on — I can honestly say it was the best steak I have ever had in my life. Cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and paired with flawless accompaniments, it was an unforgettable culinary experience. What stood out most was how everyone worked together to create an atmosphere that was both refined and inviting. The level of service, attention to detail, and passion for excellence shone through in every interaction. The Oak Room is a rare gem where outstanding service meets world-class dining. I cannot recommend it highly enough, and I will definitely be returning.

Excellent Vibes, Phenomenal Meat, and amazing appetite! For all the steakhouses fans in Abu Dhabi, a Must to Visit The Oak Room. My recommendation would be the River Ribeye and dry aged T-Bone. Highly recommend Guys !

We ate here during our stay at The Edition. Ryan served us and was superb. He helped to make our already wonderful experience even better. The best steak we have ever eaten, paired with a stunning wine. The extras were the icing on the cake. Will never forget this meal ❤️

We had an incredible anniversary at The Oak, the food was amazing, the steaks were delicious! However Phyo & Prasa made our night so special, telling us all the best parts of the hotel and Abu Dhabi keeping us entertained all night. Can’t wait to return, thank you Prada & Phyo for giving us a night to remember!

Cozy steakhouse with wooden interior, dark mood lighting and leather chairs complemented with a subtle old school playlist. Booked a table for my wife's birthday and they made sure to make her feel extra special (creme brulee cake, a special hand written letter and roses). Pa, Ryan and Praveen were very attentive and had great energy and bright smiles while they served the tables. Generous food portions and great drinks. I would definitely recommend!

Had a beautiful dining experience at Alba Terrace. The ambiance was calm and elegant ,perfect for a special evening. Kaan went above and beyond to make the night memorable. I was surprised with a complimentary birthday cake, a refreshing mocktail, and a heartfelt card wishing me a happy birthday ,such a warm and thoughtful gesture! From the service to the flavors, everything was spot on. Highly recommend for celebrations or just a relaxed night out.

We stopped by Alba Terrace at The Edition Hotel Abu Dhabi for a cocktail and were blown away by the hospitality. After mentioning our recent wedding, Pa and Savita surprised us with a beautiful dessert tray and a heartfelt handwritten letter. It was such a thoughtful and personal gesture that made our evening incredibly special. Truly outstanding service that we’ll always remember.

The atmosphere at Alba Terrace was calm and elegant, and all the staff were very kind I highly recommend the pizza and ravioli! both were delicious I visited to celebrate birthday, and the whole team made it such a happy and memorable day celebrating together. The tiramisu and handwritten note made the evening even more perfect Special thanks to Lindo and Eva who took care of our table :) they were so friendly, explaining the wines and recommending dishes, and even sang the birthday song! Thank you for making birthday truly special!!

Had dinner there today and honestly, everything was amazing, the food, the service, the staff, everything! The dishes came out super fast and were so tasty. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. Special shoutout to Mark the South African guy ❤️❤️ he was super polite and attentive, and his recommendations for dishes and drinks were spot on. He didn’t disappoint at all! I’d trust him with my life 🤣❤️ Can’t wait to come back and bring my family and friends❤️

We went there me and my sister, all the staff were very friendly & really welcoming. The place gave chill and romantic vibes for those who are looking for a quiet and a very fancy place to dine in i would highly recommend also for friends and family definitely. I would like to also thank the waiter his name was Mark I believe! He is a very nice guy. Everything he recommended on the menu for us we tried we loved so much!! He was smiley all the time very friendly and made our experience extra memorable! Thank you Mark we appreciate you! I will definitely go back with my family soon in winter they had a nice outdoor area but we couldnt sit out because the weather isn't the best yet. The food was 10/10 i would highly recommend!

We had an excellent and tasty dinner at Alba Terrace. The staff were very nice and very helpful.

Amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I specifically like how Eva explained the menu well. Based on how she presented the menu, it was expected that all her suggestions were great. We totally loved all of it. We recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and excellent service! 🌟🍽️

I had a wonderful experience at Talea . The restaurant is truly elegant, with a luxurious ambiance that’s perfect for couples. The food was delicious, and the service was warm and attentive. Everything from the decor to the presentation of the dishes was top-notch. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a refined dining experience!

I had the pleasure of celebrating a very special birthday at Talea by Antonio in Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi, and it was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was elegant and inviting, perfectly setting the stage for a memorable evening. The food was an absolute masterpiece — each dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. It’s clear that every ingredient is chosen with care and every plate is crafted with passion. The staff went above and beyond to make the celebration extra special, offering impeccable service that was both attentive and warm. A heartfelt thank you to the team for creating an unforgettable experience. Talea by Antonio is not just a restaurant, it’s a celebration of culinary artistry and genuine hospitality. I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to mark a special occasion in Abu Dhabi!

We had the most wonderful experience at TALEA! We visited twice during our 6 night stay, early September. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. The food was absolutely incredible. The drinks were just as impressive. A special thank you to Fabienne and the TALEA team for their outstanding service. Attentive, friendly, and professional, they truly made us feel at home and elevated the whole dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for exceptional Italian cuisine paired with top-notch service, and a must try Tiramisu.

Walking into Talea was like walking into a Tuscan dream. With regional classics executed to literal perfection, Talea stands out for its authenticity, depth of flavor and the kind of service that makes you feel like you’re back at home. The food, I have no absolute words. Every bite was like a recipe from Nona’s cookbook coming to life. Each bite of this incredible, divine food, didn’t just melt in my mouth, it told me a story of love and then disappeared with grace. We ordered: Tartare Di Spigola, Gnocchi Di Zucca, Fettuccine, Rombo, Burratta and Tiramisu. Every dish was a dance of art and story of a Tuscan paradise and it left me speechless. The sourdough of the Tartufo pizza was lighter than air itself and it made me crave more. It wasn’t cooking but a painting, expect the paint was made from truffle, Italian olive oil and delicious cheese. The gnocchi was so so unique and mouthwatering that it’ll make you crave for more. I am personally a huge fan of tartar and this place, no doubt, makes the best tartar ever that it took me back to the early days of my childhood. The tiramisu is to die for and they even made it right in front of us. No one can do tiramisu better than this beautiful Italian restaurant. I’d fight someone for that last bite of tiramisu and I’d lose with honor. Some meals feed your tummy, this one fed nostalgia. All the flavors fit so well that I felt they were singing in harmony. It was like having a little dance in a plate or a piece of home. Don’t even get me started on how amazing the atmosphere was. The place is beautiful and there was even a live singer. Our lovely servers, Roshan and Davide , made us feel like we were being welcomed into a family; warm, familiar and eager to feed you until you surrender! The service and food were served with a soul and not just a smile because they don’t serve guests but memories that made me feel like I was right back home. The staff was so professional that it anticipated needs that I didn’t know I had until they gave them. The whole thing experience was just an edible escape to Italy, no passport required. I do recommend this place and I think this is THE Italy restaurant of the UAE. Want authentic Italian food? This is the right place to go! Thank you to all the lovely people here and my generous compliments to the chef because he definitely has magic hands to create such amazing, tasty, loving food filled with life and soul in each bite. Thank you again ! 🫶🏻

Came here to celebrate birthday , very disappointed from service , very rude and unnecessary comments from waiters, especially how he can ask from birthday person why she is paying and etc.comments about taking pictures like “oh you are making a big shooting “‘ , why would someone from staff interfere in personal stuff?! had problems with flower transportation as no one from staff couldn’t bring it to reception. Big difference from when you come here with girl group and with spouse .

The service was excellent, and the decor was fitting for its location in the Emirates Palace hotel. The food, however, was inconsistent—some dishes were excellent, others just okay, and a few had questionable flavors. Would I return? Yes, I would, particularly to try the pizza and steak again.

My husband and I had an amazing experience this weekend at Talea. Ambience is really beautiful, refined and perfect for a good conversation. Service was 7 stars, with everyone at the restaurant making you feel welcomed and special. Best Italian food we’ve tried, from the perfectly cooked pizza, you can feel the best ingredients are used, to the pasta with sea urchin which had the perfect balance and taste and the tiramisu, cooked at the moment to keep the freshness of all ingredients . My husband has Italian roots and loves cooking at home ; going to Talea was taking you back to Italy but with such a special taste and high quality ingredients that is difficult to get at home or at any other “typical” italian restaurant Definitely highly recommended to try the food and experience

My friend invited me to try this restaurant for the 1st time and we went there for breakfast. The place is nice, bright and I thanks for the free 2 hour parking. The food was amazing, delicious and well presented. Service was excellent, very friendly and attentive staffs. The only downside is that the prices are on the higher side. Overall, a great experience if you don’t mind spending a bit more. ☺️

I loved the food! We ordered the eggs royale which was delicious and the creamy avocado on toast. Out of all the staff, Anna was the best; she was so kind, friendly and helful! Thanks Anna for making our experience at the restaurant lovely.

I had a wonderful experience at Tashas Al Bateen. The gluten free pasta was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the salads were fresh, colorful, and delicious. 😋 Their drinks were refreshing and paired perfectly with the meal. The overall quality of the food and presentation was excellent, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

Great place for a chilled dinner. Tashas is a brand from SA and renowned for high quality fresh produce. Abu Dhabi' outlet is no different. We ate paella, halloumi and breads. Fresh taste. Served quickly in a very nice atmosphere with attentive and clearly very hard working staff.

I love the vibes at tashas Al Bateen. Their breakfast is excellent, especially the avocado toast and the French toast, which were really delicious. It’s better to come early in the morning, as the place gets full quickly.

Love the food Love the atmosphere and vibes. The staff are very nice and friendly They listen very carefully to the customers requests One of the best spots in Abu Dhabi. Their chicken prego is absolutely amazing with mashed potatoes. The texas salad is good as well .

Excellent food and service , very nice location by the water , price $$$$ Chance of coming back : yes for sure

We had a fantastic time at Cipriani! The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, making our experience even more enjoyable. We celebrated my friend’s birthday, and everything was perfect. The food was excellent, especially the chocolate cake—it was absolutely delicious. The Americano was also really good. Overall, a great experience, and we’ll definitely be back!

Cipriani Dolci is such a nice spot, great vibes and really friendly staff. The apple pie was the star for me, warm, buttery, delicately spiced, and served with the perfect balance of sweetness. Whether you're a local or just visiting, Cipriani Dolci is well worth a stop, especially for that apple pie!

The service was truly amazing and very attentive. The seabass was good, though it only came with tomato sauce which wasn’t really my preference. On the other hand, the risotto and calamari were excellent and definitely worth trying

I've enjoyed a great coffee n cake experience. Next time I'll go for the full meal. The venue is very smart, as one would expect. The staff are most welcoming and efficient - I'm delighted to add the Abu Dhabi location to my Cipriani experience collection.

🌿This Italian coffee spot is such a refreshing imside the mall.Their Spanish latte is perfectly balanced—creamy, smooth, and just the right amount of sweetness. And the moist chocolate cake is a must-try: rich, soft, and melts in every bite. Together, they make the perfect pairing for a cozy coffee break. Definitely a place worth coming back☘️😊to.

I had the pleasure of being served by a wonderful staff member, whose name I believe is Shima, possibly Moroccan. She was extremely kind and friendly, and her presence added a special touch to the experience at cipriani dolci marina mall ,I was there with my mother and sisters to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and she was very helpful and supportive throughout the celebration. Many thanks to this lovely lady, and I wish her all the best!

I had an amazing experience. The welcoming from Mohamad was very friendly and warm. The service was great from Arbi, although she's a newbie for only 3 months yet she was very friendly, nice and professional. They even made me taste their pistachio ice cream, which is the best and most delicious as a complimentary. I'll be visiting more often for sure.

An unforgettable dining experience! Byblos Sur Mer delivers authentic Lebanese cuisine with exceptional service, elegant ambiance, and stunning marina views. Every dish was a perfect balance of flavor and freshness, especially the grills and mezze. The atmosphere is warm yet refined—ideal for family dinners, dates, or business gatherings. The staff are genuinely welcoming and attentive without being intrusive. Easily one of the best restaurants in Abu Dhabi. Highly recommended and worth every visit! Special thanks for the professional & Friendly staff : Ayman Moulhem Khalid Amine Majed

Mr. AbdulRahman was great with his service. Enjoyed the food and the hookah. I highly recommend to sit on the second floor on the terrace. It has such a marvelous view.

Overall: ★★★★☆ Food: 8/10 Ambience: 9/10 Price: 6/10 Recommendations: - Chicken Msahab Comments: - Nice view - Small but well made menu - They do buffets that seem good 🌯 Follow my AD food list: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Akv4TdY6Q1LmPv9M9?g_st=ac ☕️ Follow my AD cafes list: https://maps.app.goo.gl/uQHhcuCbwGWGZAB76?g_st=ac

Came here in April and again in October. The food is absolutely amazing and the service we received from our waiters Amine and Ayman was perfect. Please do not come to the Intercontinental in Abu Dhabi without visiting this restaurant. Food is amazing and the waiters are so attentive and really look after you . Thank you for a wonderful experience again x

The restaurant is located near the marina, with a very nice view. Foods are delicious and personnels are kind. Even if there was a preparation for an upcoming event on the ground floor, I was served with a good care on the first floor with always one personnel checked me, so special thanks to Abdelrahman.

We had a really disappointing experience at Byblos Restaurant in Abu Dhabi. We arrived at 5:50 PM and placed our order around 6:00 PM, but even by 7:00 PM, the food still hadn’t arrived and it was only five meals. After waiting patiently for an hour, we called the manager. It was obvious we were upset, and we asked for the bill since we still hadn’t received our food. The manager simply said “sure” and walked away to bring the bill, without any explanation or apology. His attitude showed no care or professionalism, and the whole experience was a disaster , especially after coming all the way from Dubai expecting something much better. Totally below expectations.

Excellent experience at Byblos Sur Mer. The food was delicious with authentic Lebanese flavors, and the ambiance was relaxing with a beautiful view. Service was professional and attentive. Special thanks to (Yusra) for her warm welcome and outstanding hospitality. She made the experience even better. Highly recommended.

The signature udon noodles with XO sauce was very flavorful, and the braised beef noodle soup was more plain. The portion was decent size, and service was great. Would recommend for a convenient meal at the hotel.

Mr. Teh and his team were incredibly efficient, careful and attentive during my visit to the prestigious Shang Palace restaurant. The all-you-can-eat dim sum lunch was an excellent deal, featuring many classics. My favorites were the tender stir-fried beef with fermented beans, mango juice with sago, and the egg tarts. I recommend this restaurant if you are visiting Abu Dhabi and craving some Cantonese food.

Wow!!! Just Wow!!! Love everything about Shang Palace!!! We didn’t expect our experience to be so great!!! Nice and quiet ambiance. We love the food. Staff are so friendly. Natasha the Tea Master is so graceful. We didn’t get the name of the other staff but all of them are very attentive and courteous!!! Overall, we chose the best place to celebrate my birthday lunch! We have tried all of the food in the Yum Cha Menu plus few dim-sum and dessert refills. Great Value for your bucks!!! Recommendations: Siomai, hargaw, steamed bun, shrimp tempura, Sichuan fish, spicy eggplant, all desserts!!! Special shoutout for the birthday cake!!! Thank you so much!!!

Sumptuous experience in Shang Palace. One highlight is being greated personaly by Chef making sure our experience is unforgetable thank you Chef Su, Chef Evans and team. The dimsum selection, chocolate bun and mango was perfect. Likewise to Peasly, Jelyn and Sai. We have great dinning experience.

Our Shang Palace Yum Cha Lunch won’t be as memorable without the excellent and efficient service of the staff and crew. Especially to Ms. Jelyn who was very attentive to all our request. She even went out of her way to make our friends impromptu bridal shower a special one. Kudos to everyone at Shang Palace!

The atmosphere is calm and elegant, creating a world of tranquility. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. A special thanks to Jelyn, who was an excellent host—very professional and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I would visit again and highly recommend for anyone who loves authentic Chinese cuisine in a refined setting. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Really enjoyed our meal at Shang Palace! The food was absolutely delicious, the setting was beautiful, and the customer service was excellent. Staff were friendly and attentive throughout. Would definitely come again!

Amazing place, the food and beer is so amazing, that it's like being in Germany again. Highly recommended! If you come here, I'd recommend getting a taxi, that way you can enjoy your time much better (do NOT drink and drive ever!).

My recent dining experience at The Garden, located within the Beach Rotana, was exceptional. The restaurant’s lush, inviting atmosphere provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxing meal. I ordered the spareribs, prepared by Chef Pedro Kimmig. They were outstanding! Hats off to the chef. The meat was perfectly tender and flavorful, and the portion was generous. They were paired with thinly sliced, stacked potatoes—crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside—which were also excellent. The service was attentive and friendly too. Highly recommended!

Brauhaus at Rotana has seen a remarkable improvement since Carlo joined. His exceptional service and attentiveness elevate the experience, ensuring every guest feels welcome. Carlo's warmth and dedication have set a new standard, inspiring the entire staff. Since his arrival you can notice a revitalized atmosphere and impeccable service. A must-visit for an authentic German experience with a personal touch.

Unforgettable experience in this restaurant , especially with waiter Michael.He did a lot for the amazing atmosphere.好吃都来！

We had dinner at Brauhaus restaurant, and our waiter Dasan was absolutely amazing! He was very friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. His excellent service and warm attitude made our dining experience truly enjoyable. Thank you, Dasan, for your outstanding hospitality — we’ll definitely be coming back!

Michael is amazing! So happy to drink here! The food is wonderful!

We sat outside in the Garden section and the ambience was serene! Food was served piping hot. Big portions of food, so go hungry or split! :) Loved the appetizers and mains - dessert was a bit stodgy but the hazelnut ice cream was lovely!

Great atmosphere, great food, amazing experience. Every single bite was absolutely tasty, from the bread with olive oil & vinegar, to the main course - 5 stars! I’m absolutely in love with the Passion Fruit Spritz, super refreshing and delicious. The beef was super soft, the parmigiana perfectly cooked. Absolutely loved the experience, 10/10 recommended!

My friend and I decided to skip our usual lunch spot for something special, and we're so glad we did. Our business lunch at Restaurant Paradiso was less of a meeting and more of a celebration of great food and good company. From the moment we walked in, the service was wonderful. The gentleman looking after our table had a fantastic eye for timing. Thank you! We started with a few entrees to share But the true star was the steak. It was, without a hint of exaggeration, spectacular. Cooked to absolute perfection, it was so tender and flavorful that my friend and I just looked at each other and laughed. It was one of those meals where you just have to put your fork down for a second and appreciate it. We left feeling completely satisfied, not just by the amazing food, but by the entire experience. I will be for sure very soon!

We took the business lunch m, it was really good. I even tried a cocktail with gin from Italy, I’m intalian but never tried that one. Last but not least the service wow they are sooooooo nice like really gentle, it is super relaxing and comfortable to be there. And of course the location and the view wow. The food is also really good

It was our first time in Abu Dhabi and we found this place by accident. I was impressed by the level of service! The food tastes absolutely delicious! Thank you team, and a big thank you to Loreto. He made our stay special and memorable 🙏🏼

For my first time visiting Paradiso, it was an amazing experience time! After hearing great reviews about Italian evening, my friend and I were very excited to visit the venue. The food was exceptional with very prompt service, and the staff were very friendly and helpful, bringing all of our requests. The best part was the variety of food received, and being able to re order as we wished - such a great service! Excited to bring more friends back soon.

I had a fantastic business lunch at Paradiso, and I can't recommend it enough! The food was exquisite, and the views were absolutely stunning—it's the perfect backdrop for a productive meeting. Our waiter, Ferge, truly made the experience memorable with her attentive and friendly service. She was knowledgeable about the menu and ensured we had everything we needed. I left feeling satisfied not just with the meal but also with the overall ambiance. Definitely a place I’ll be returning to!

Visited this Italian gem in Yas Bay for the second time, and it never disappoints! The atmosphere is so inviting, especially in winter when you can sit outdoors, soak up the sunshine, and enjoy the stunning sea view. Their menu is filled with authentic Italian flavors – from appetizers to desserts – and the seafood is truly a highlight. Drinks are excellent too. A wonderful place to share a meal with family or friends. Can’t wait to come back again!

Stunning food. On a stopover in Abu Dhabi between flights. Friend suggested Coya. Did not disappoint. The set menu was amazing. Had amouse bouche of cucumber and basil. Starters were ceviche and beef tacos. The star of the show was the duck “hot pot” rice. Crispy skin, fall off the bone meat, spectacular risotto-esque rice. Topped off with churros, served with a spoon to scrape up the last bite of chocolate sauce. Just spectacular!

My fiancé said the Peru has the best gastronomy in the world and the closest to that here in Abu Dhabi is Coya and my tummy and taste buds could not agree more. The food, the service, the atmosphere, everything was so magical. Even they made my birthday celebration more special. Definitely worth so much being a Michelin starred restaurant. My fiancé is a Peruvian and he definitely agreed that all the dishes served are curated the Peruvian style.

Excellent service and value for money. Live music brings the energy. Special shout out to Pathum for his perfect pacing on the courses and for the whole team serving with a smile and great energy. Definitely will be back. The Aesop hand soap also a very nice touch!

The place is good, however the view is not great when your only view is a building construction site. The furniture is warm out and the table was rocky. The waiters were very attentive and ensured all items were okay for my wife to eat, as she is carrying a baby. The starters we got the salmon croquettes, wagyu taco, beef gyoza chicken boa buns. The starters were good overall. Furthermore the starters were great however the mains did lack as it did not have anything to compliment, we ordered the wagyu and beef fillet and they only came with the side salad. The dessert was good, however the churros were a bit oily but the chocolate sauce was great. The popsicle was really well made and had the sweetness and the sharpness.

We had an amazing experience at COYA! The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. But what truly made our visit special was the outstanding hospitality. Our waiter Eddie was incredibly kind, attentive, and made us feel so welcomed throughout the evening. His warm attitude and professionalism really stood out. We’ll definitely be coming back — and it’s safe to say Eddie is a big reason why. Highly recommend!

The best place for raw fish and seafood fans. Excellent set menus with wine pairing, be aware than the sets are overloaded with delicious food and you need to be really prepared to endure this :) tuna, scallop and sea bass crudos are the best. Taco’s I find on the simpler side. For main - definitely take the fish on the rice cooked in a pot -> it is incredible!

We came here to celebrate our wedding dinner and the overall experience was outstanding. From the food, ambiance to the great service provided by Mr Bonny, the best of the best. He truly is the souls of the restaurant.

** Nice Japanese Food in Mamsha** Interesting Izakaya on Saadiyat. We tried the skewers that were nice (except for the wagyu one, overpriced and not very tender), various sushi rolls (the fatty tuna and torched salmon were the highlight), veggie dumplings (oddly sweet, that is the one item I would fail) and fried rice (a bit saucy but tasty). The price seemed fair for what we had - though the place didn’t have great service or a buzzy ambience on a Sunday at lunchtime. I would go again when in the neighbourhood and craving sushi!

The starters and desserts were truly delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. While the main dishes were average in taste for me, the staff made a great impression, extremely friendly and attentive. One of the highlights was when I ordered a dish I didn’t enjoy, the waitress noticed I didn’t eat it, came to check on me, and when I explained, she apologized sincerely and even removed it from the bill without me asking. That kind of customer service really stood out and made the experience worthwhile. Would come back for the starters, desserts, and service!

I went to Niri for my birthday even though it was on Tuesday night but the restaurant was crowded (Ramadan month). The food was amazing especially sushi menu was very fresh and well made. The table was a bit too small to enjoy food and too close to others which a bit killed the vibe for me.

One of my favorite sushi spots in Abu Dhabi — I’ve been here more than ten times, and it never disappoints. The sushi is consistently excellent, and the sea view is absolutely perfect, making it one of the best dining atmospheres in the city. However, the service could use some improvement. The staff don’t always pay close attention when accommodating guests, and a few can come across as rude, especially when the restaurant is full or there’s no availability. A bit more courtesy and attentiveness would really elevate the overall experience. Still, the food and ambiance keep me coming back — a must-visit for sushi lovers.

A very disappointing experience. I visited the restaurant while many outdoor tables were empty, yet I was told they were “fully booked.” When I asked for one of the larger tables, I was told they were reserved for groups and couldn’t be given to me. However, when I came back an hour later, I was surprised to see two people sitting at a table that could easily seat four! Honestly, the way this was handled was quite unprofessional — especially since it was my birthday, and I was hoping to celebrate and enjoy my time there. After this, I decided to leave and go to 3 Fils, where they truly understand how to respect and value their customers.

The atmosphere was good, clean, and kind of gave that authentic Japanese feel. The food was super tasty and felt really fresh, especially the sushi. Overall, it’s one of those places I’d happily go back to.

Great experience at Niri on Mamsha yesterday, we went for their business lunch which was fantastic. The place is very nicely located with sea views, very fast and friendly service and the food was delicious. Will definitely go back again.

OTORO Modern Japanese Restaurant exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was stylish and inviting, blending modern elegance with subtle traditional touches. The service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was beautifully plated and bursting with flavor.

Craving sushi and a hint of wagyu, I came across this refined spot that immediately felt warm and inviting. The ambiance was serene — calm, understated, and effortlessly elegant. I opted for the Prawn Maki Roll and Wagyu Nigiri; both were impeccably fresh, beautifully presented, and rich in flavor. The overall experience was harmonious and unhurried, making it an ideal destination for a refined dining escape. I’ll certainly be returning to explore more of their culinary creations.

From the moment we stepped in, the elegance and attention to detail were unmistakable. We ordered the wagyu, lobster with pasta, and salmon and they were all of the highest quality, expertly prepared, rich in flavor, and beautifully presented. Each bite felt like a masterpiece. Though the prices are on the higher side, the experience, service, and premium ingredients justify the cost. If you're looking for a refined Japanese dining experience, this place delivers in every way!

I ordered chicken ramen and it was something absolutely out of this earth - I would definitely recommend anyone to visit and try it ! For a dessert I took crème brûlée and it was very tasty as well. Enjoy !

I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The staff were attentive and the atmosphere was welcoming. Our favorite dishes were the salmon carpaccio, wagyu clay pot, and the chicken ramen. Highly recommend it for a nice lunch or dinner out. Will definitely come back.

Good dining spot with really delicious nigiri’s. To be honest, I found it a good but not-so-special place The menu is short in options. The one that definitely stands out are the nigiri’s and seafood carpaccios. The ramen broth was great. The sushi menu was short in options, but I wouldn’t recommend the fried rice with tuna tartare - definitely not good, salty, dry and overpriced. The special miso truffle soup, has no truffle flavour to it. Anyhoo, it was okay - would repeat to see if any other dish wows me.

the atmosphere was breathtaking beautiful, Kris was super nice and checking on us every couple of minutes. We ordered cod fish burger which tastes very unique, moreover, chicken ramen, the broth and chicken cutlets cooked to the perfect point, we ended the evening with a matcha tiramisu which is a very clever combination. Highly recommend.

Incredible experience from start to finish. We were treated like royalty and nothing was too much trouble. Food was delicious. A wonderful atmosphere, but not at all stuffy. Very family friendly. Would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience with the Italian menu — every dish was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and truly satisfying. From the starters to the dessert, everything was delicious and felt authentically Italian. A big thank you to Mohamed for the excellent service — attentive, kind, and always with a smile. You made our meal even more enjoyable. Grazie mille! 🇮🇹✨

Lovely food, good service from James. Celebrated my daughter’s 15th birthday with a surprise cake and all the staff came out singing “happy birthday” which was really sweet and lovely. Thank you for a fabulous evening!

I celebrated my birthday at Vero Italiano on September 7, and it was amazing! Cozy, elegant atmosphere, excellent food and attentive, caring staff made the evening perfect. I couldn’t have picked a better place for my birthday. We’ve been back several times since and every visit has been just as wonderful.

To be honest this was the worst restaurant we visited in our holiday. It started with the reservation. I couldn't make a reservation via email. Our concierge tried multiple times to make the reservation. Finally he could manage to. The Vero is a restaurant and belongs to the Rixos. So 99% guest ate hotel guest. Means Russians and most pretty extra casual. If you look for an elegant evening - that's not the place. Then the food: not bad. It's ok. We received the starter AFTER the main course. The service guy tried to safe the situation somehow. But they failed. 1 star for the ok food. 1 star for the nice service guy. 1 star for the beautiful hotel. The rest is pretty mediocre. I mean the restaurant is not extremely bad. But there are plenty of better options in Abu Dhabi.

Truly outstanding service from the minute we entered the restaurant. Absolutely fantastic food and drink. James made us feel very welcome and made the experience a memorable one. Thank you James and his team.

A lovely family evening meal at Vero Italiano. Our host, Abdelfattah was very welcoming and friendly to us, in particular he was very attentive to our 9 month old daughter, making her laugh and playing games. The food was of a high calibre and we were well looked after, it was impressive that our daughter was included in the hospitality and we all had a wonderful evening. We recommend the salmon starter, lamb loin and Angus ribs. Thank you, Lewis

With a 5-star hotel brand, the expectation for food quality and service is naturally high. We had dinner on Friday night, which was advertised as a seafood and steak night. Sadly, the seafood options were very limited—only broiled and cold prawns, and white clams (no fresh oysters). At the grill station, the grilled fish was served cold and tasteless. The grilled freshwater giant prawns ran out around 7:30–8:00 pm, even while customers were still arriving, and were replaced with regular grilled prawns that were not fresh at all (the meat was soft and falling apart). The sushi section had more variety, but the taste was average. Overall, there weren’t many choices, and drinks were not included. The dessert section had more variety. If you have a sweet tooth, you would love it. However, paying 280++ for this quality is not worth it. Service was also lacking—staff did not clear used plates from our table promptly. The atmosphere and toilets were clean, but overall, the experience was below expectations.

A Beautiful Restaurant that enhances the local beauty. Location is easy to access, with professional and welcoming valet services. Lobby with a view. Easy to reach from the lobby, their all-day dining. Pretty ambiance, dimmed lights where the buffet is. It was not that crowded, nice seats by the window. The breakfast buffet itself is very strong with food variety. Local flavors are emphasized as well, and you can find major breakfast items of each major culture. Loved the fact that they had 100% gluten-free items on the buffet. So you do not have to ask and feel awkward. Healthy options are highlighted, but they have ice cream variations too. I eat soups for breakfast and love the fact that they put an effort into making delicious soup, even though it is not a popular choice. A lot of items that you will not see in other places were present, so again, a big variety. Chefs were very approachable and helpful. Food is delicious, each item on the buffet was so tasty, you can see a lot of effort put. The chef passing around and offering some food items was something unique. We had a really nice breakfast. It was a nice choice of a restaurant and time for us, as we are with a toddler, and in some places you do not feel that comfortable, or the atmosphere is too hectic for small kids. Here, even our small one had a great time and enjoyed breakfast. Ahmed and Dixon made our experience even more delightful. Service is great and what you would expect from Shangri-La.

Location of hotel away from city , around the beach with Grand mosque view and hotel it self is beautiful designed and decorated. Their breakfast buffet was amazing . Loads of live cooking stations, freaky squeezed juices , chocolate fountain, vegan options, Asian and Middle Eastern options. And warm and excellent service . They have indoor and outdoor both areas for breakfast.

Our family had a truly enjoyable dining experience here, thanks to Mr. Dickson’s outstanding service. He was very polite, attentive, and efficient, ensuring that all our needs were met promptly. His warm hospitality made us feel very welcome and comfortable throughout our dining experience. Our whole family was very happy and satisfied ❤️

We've always loved the food at Sofra at the Shangri-La Qariyat Al Beri, Abu Dhabi and now we can add that's they definitely have gotten even better than before. A business meeting became a lunch and the lunch went on for two hours so you can imagine how good the food, ambiance and most importantly, the company was. Thanks for the hospitality. The biryani was simply out of this world and the Thai Red curry was killer.

My wife and I had a lovely lunch at Sofra and thoroughly enjoyed our time. The food selection was excellent — a wide variety of delicious dishes that were both flavorful and well-presented. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing meal together. Special mention to Dickson and Sai for his attentive and friendly service — he made our experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

We have experienced exceptional service! Dickson is very attentive with our needs. I highly recommend!

Not impressed really. We had a lunch and a dinner here and both were average at best. Not worthy of michelin by any stretch. The lunch was huge portions of average/low quality food. Calamari was burnt to point it was simply crunch that was being eaten, lamb ragu pasta was over poweringly strong lamb taste and off puttingly large portion. The veal mialness was ok at best, but very greasy. The burrata salad was good, but not fantastic. We accepted that the lunch might not be a strong point so tried again for dinner a couple of nights later. We ordered steaks, the order was read back to us and confirmed. They brought out a the first steak, which was supposed to be med/rare rib eye…it was blue at best. We asked for thisnto be returned and cooked as requested…the second steak still had not come. When it did arrive it was supposed to be a rare fillet, it was well done. The first steak the reappeared ten mins later and was put on table with the waiter saying “i hope this now meets your expectations” in a very condescending manner. Not somewhere i would recommend, lacks atmosphere or ambience; service from certain staff sub par, poorly organised kitchen service and basically not very good food.

Absolutely beautiful venue with great food and outstanding service. We had a few entrées, two mains, and some dessert. Everything was delicious! Thank you so much to Vivian, and to all the staff for being so attentive and welcoming, it truly made the experience much more memorable and enjoyable. The ambiance is quite romantic, making it a perfect place for an intimate dinner with your loved one or a lovely outing with a few friends. There is also complimentary valet parking and a beautiful outdoor area. It’s a bit too hot for the summer days, but I’m sure during the rest of the year it would be lovely to sit outside. Highly recommend!

I dined at Villa Toscana overall, it was a pleasant experience. The ambiance is charming and elegant, giving off authentic Italian vibes. The burrata was a definite highlight—fresh, creamy, and paired beautifully with the accompaniments. It’s a must-try for anyone visiting. However, I was a bit disappointed with the lobster pasta dish (pictured). While it looked impressive in presentation, the flavors didn’t quite come together as expected. I’d rate this particular dish a 6/10. That being said, the service was attentive, and there are plenty of other authentic dishes on the menu that make Villa Toscana worth visiting.

A Truly Delightful Dining Experience” We were recommended this restaurant during our stay at St. Regis – and it absolutely lived up to the praise! As a family with varied dietary preferences – vegetarians, a vegan, and gluten-free – we were pleasantly surprised by the number of options available. We began with a beautifully refreshing lime drink, perfectly crafted by the bartender. The chef then delighted us with a complimentary Panzanella salad, accompanied by a wonderful selection of freshly baked breads and marinated olives – such a thoughtful gesture. For our mains, we had a cheese-free vegetarian pizza, Spaghetti Pomodoro, gluten-free gnocchi, and a side of grilled vegetables. Every dish was outstanding – bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. Not a single note out of place! The service was impeccable – attentive yet never intrusive – adding to the overall charm of the evening. All in all, a truly memorable experience. We will definitely be back and recommend it to anyone looking for exceptional food and hospitality.

I was shocking not impressed with this restaurant, their menu, or their food. I had Chilean sea bass and it was on a horrible yellow and orange sauce that ruined the taste of the fish. My husband had a pepper risotto that wasn’t good either. I know they won a lot of awards, this is why we went. I would look at the menu to see if you like the selection and maybe give it a pass and try another Italian restaurant. Honestly, it was average food NOT Michelin star.

One of the finest Italian restaurants in Abu Dhabi, located in the elegant St. Regis Hotel. The decor is stylish, the atmosphere warm and inviting, and the food tasty. The staff are professional and friendly. Highly recommended!

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant today. When we arrived, we were told it was fully booked and couldn’t get a table. A few minutes later, another couple came without any reservation, and the staff let them in immediately. When we confronted the hostess her name is Glice, she apologized and said she would try to find us a table — clearly realizing the mistake. Then the manager came and tried to justify it by saying those guests had a reservation, which was not true at all. We were standing right next to them and heard everything. This kind of behavior is completely unprofessional and honestly unacceptable. It really ruined my mood, and it’s definitely the last time we visit this place. I also wouldn’t recommend this restaurant to anyone I know — I wouldn’t want them to go through the same embarrassing situation. Truly disappointing.

Wow, the seafood here is outstanding! I was genuinely surprised by how much both the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the service surpassed what I was expecting. My sincere thanks to the entire team, especially the chef, for a memorable meal.

Had the most delicious grilled fish made by the Mauritian chef, I believe it’s his grand mother’s recipe and yummy, it was by far one of the best dishes I’ve had. The sushi was equally good. The staff were really impressive and the ambiance was amazing.

The venue, housed in a "Colonial" style pavilion offers great food in elegant surroundings, with refined musical entertainment on Fri night. ... very enthusiastic cheerful staff. There's indoor sitting or one can be outside in a charming green space facing the water. Two things to bear in mind though. It may not be immediately obvious but the restaurant is not located in the actual St Regis hotel. It may be challenging to call Uber to the right location when it's time to go home after the meal.

Absolutely amazing place with incredibly delicious food, a great view, and very polite and professional staff. I strongly recommend the seafood-all of the menu and the tiramisu-like dessert!

It has a wonderful garden at the seafront, a very stylish and charming ambience, a perfectly delicious menu, a friendly and professional team

Go find another place at Corniche, you will thank me later. Service and food was OK, but the restaurant manager was arrogant as hell. Definitely wanted a sunset spot, but instead was given the most outside spot ever. Only here for a layover of a few hours and wanted to enjoy the famous arabian sunsets, but wasnt given the opportunity, what a fail. For a really great sunset and also good food check out the restaurant right nearby to the left, west something.

The food is not only very tasty but also comes with creativities. I can highly recommend. The service is good. It is also a good idea sitting outside to enjoy the view.

The BEST breakfast in UAE! I'm very sure that this is thr best breakfast I've had in UAE! The selection of foods is actually magnificent especially the croissants and the pastries which are out of this world. Everytime there are fresh croissants out of the oven, a bell is rung to announce it. I was impressed with the selection of English, Lebanese, Indian and other foods from all over the world, I can't remember the last time I had chicken liver or lamb dishes at a breakfast. However, I'll save the best part for the last, the breakfast goes on until 1pm so it's perfect for all those people who want to take it easy and lie in and not have to wake up early to have breakfast. Service was absolutely amazing and we are looking forward to having a leisurely breakfast tomm morning. Well done team! We are very impressed and so happy to be celebrating a special occasion at the hotel.

An amazing 5 star hotel We booked for one night as we were celebrating our anniversary. We had dinner at Olea restaurant as part of our half board package (seafood night) and honestly the staff and the food were spectacular. I have been to so many restaurants in so many hotels in Dubai and AD but the quality of food and the staff made Olea one of the best restaurants we have been to. The breakfast buffet was wonderful and I loved that they gave us a menu and we can choose what we want from it. We were served by good luck and he was great. Thank you for the amazing stay and we will definitely come back in the future.

Tons of restaurants nail Ramadan iftars, but Olea’s iftar selection is on another level. They’ve got a bunch of stations loaded with killer dishes from all over the globe. I’m not throwing out ratings as usual as this is simply the best iftar I’ve hit up in Abu Dhabi (not stacking it against Emirates Palace, though). Took a few pics, but they don’t come close to showing off the full spread of their Ramadan buffet.

This must be the best hotel breakfast in the UAE. The quality of food and the selection is outstanding. In particular, egg options and the bakery. All fruit are fresh and tasty. Really really impressed - highly recommended.

🌙✨ Had an amazing Iftar experience at Oléa Mediterranean Restaurant The buffet was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of well-prepared dishes that were both flavorful and satisfying. The atmosphere was beautiful, creating the perfect setting to enjoy the meal with family and friends. 🌸🍽️ The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have a wonderful Iftar! 🕌💫

The Olea restaurant offers a variety of delectable dishes. and the entire staff, who are all well-organized and accommodating.Salute to Olea Staffs and thank you for being so kind.

Great breakfast buffet ! The coffee could be a bit better but the food is great. Fruits taste like fruits unlike other places in the UAE and their pastries are amazing The best part is that breakfast is serve till 1 pm! Definitely have brunch there :)

Service was exceptional, Kat was a very attentive host 10/10. Food was good we enjoyed the seafood grill although it was slight overcooked. Our starters were good the arancini balls were fantastic however the sliders and Brie ere disappointing. Cocktails were also fantastic. We enjoyed the DJ and atmosphere. Would recommend

I was happy to finally find a healthy salad! It’s a little pricey - $27 USD with a water - but you’re paying for the ambiance and excellent service. The view is just OK. You have to make dinner reservations to be able to go upstairs to the dining room. Owell! The only real negative was they were BLASTING music into my eardrums like it was a nightclub, but in fact, it was just a chill evening, 7pm.

It was hazy the night I went but still beautiful view and very friendly staff. I but expensive but also what I expected for a St. Regis

The service in this restaurant is absolutely exceptional. All the servers, managers etc create such a warm, professional and in its own way luxurious experience whilst dining here. The lamb chops are out of this world!

Very nice, great food and beautiful view. Menu had a good variety of dishes. The staff was very helpful and the non alcoholic mojito was really delicious. You walk true the great St.regis hotel so also that is a great way of entering. This salad was a 10/10

I really love everything in this place. Start from the greeting by the hostess, May.. and then amazing view of the place from the roof 3rd floor. Then the recommendation menu by the staff Jay, Anita, Htet, Ashika, and Sujan, They just really amazing! They even celebrated my friend’s birthday together with us, and helped us with high hospitality service. 10000/10!😍

The visit started pleasantly — we were welcomed nicely and the staff were polite. However, the service was disappointing: it took over 15 minutes to get the bill, and we had to go to the counter ourselves to ask for it. When paying, they made a mistake, and we had to come back to pay additional hidden tax and service charges. Very disappointed, especially because it’s not just about the money, but about respect for guests’ time.

Fishmarket brings back so many childhood memories and all the family lunches we used to enjoy there. I hadn’t been in years, but on my recent visit, I was so happy to see that the quality of the food hasn’t changed. I love the whole experience—from selecting your own fresh fish and vegetables to choosing the side dishes, all beautifully laid out. The outdoor seating is stunning, with a lovely view overlooking the sea. Service was excellent and the staff were warm and welcoming. Truly happy to be back!

Absolutely loved this place ! The food was bursting with flavor, the service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere had just the right vibe—chic, cozy, and welcoming. A perfect spot for a memorable night out. Highly recommend!

Excellent, tasty, and freshly prepared seafood dishes. Professional staff and friendly service

Amazing seafood! 🐟 Everything was fresh and full of flavor 😋. The service was excellent – friendly and attentive. Chef Sawai was fantastic 👨‍🍳 – he personally came to talk to us and made us feel very welcome. The seaside view 🌊 made it even more special. Highly recommended if you’re looking for delicious food and a great atmosphere!

Very fresh Seafood 🦞 Only you have to choose the right sauce and the way of cooking

I was so disappointed because the food wasnt cooked well we had stomachache after eating and the food was below average, its thai restaurant so dont expect that the food will be seasoned like Arabic food, the fish was grilled with no seasoning at all no black pepper no salt :/

We visited for dinner and had an incredible experience! We ordered the tummy yum soup, fried calamari(which was unfortunately not crispy), garlic-infused mussels, and a beautifully grilled sea bass. We also enjoyed shrimp noodles and fried Hamour fish, prepared Thai-style by the chef himself. Every dish was outstanding, full of flavor, and perfectly cooked – one of the rare times I’ve been completely satisfied with a seafood meal. Thank you, Fish Market, for a memorable dining experience!

The pros : staff at the entrance or the restaurant was very nice and took time to explain the differences with Sole, the Italian restaurant next door in the same floor of the hotel. Food was good and portions were generous. The cons : ingredients could have been of better quality. Whilst the chicken was well prepared, the chicken quality could be better. Service by the pool was not very efficient, tables weren’t cleaned regularly and we had to get up to manage to pay our bill. Seating by the pool was quite noisy with children playing in the pool.

We had great time, the view of the pool is great during the lunch time. Brunch was amazing, so was the dinner.

As a vegan, I don't typically go out to brunches. Something about paying the same amount as someone who has access to filet mignon and fresh oysters, only to eat some salads and steamed vegetables... it just doesn't feel worth it. But today I tried the Nahaam Saturday brunch, and wow - they really pulled out all the stops. Instead of just pointing out the vegan options in their (already impressive) buffet and live-cooking stations, the chef decided to send dish after impressive dish straight to my table - all made especially for me, and fully vegan. I felt like royalty! It actually got to the point where I had to ask them to stop because I couldn’t keep up. And at the end, they even packed up the leftovers for me - I left with a second meal in hand. Some of the dishes they brought out included: Vegan pizza Avocado maki Watermelon “feta” salad with walnuts Asian-style noodles with veggies Fresh Vietnamese spring rolls Tofu poke bowl Roasted vegetables with hearts of palm, asparagus, carrots, and soya mince And a delicious slice of vegan chocolate cake Everything tasted great, felt fresh, and was well thought out - not like an afterthought. The plating was also really nice. On top of that, I loved that the soft drink package included mocktails, not just sodas. I had a really good passion fruit mojito that I’d happily order again. Service throughout was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was relaxed but elegant, and overall it was just a great experience. With Entertainer, I paid less than 300 AED for the soft drinks package, which is honestly amazing value for the quality and service. If you’re vegan/vegetarian and wondering if this brunch is worth it - it absolutely is. And even if you’re not vegan, you’ll still enjoy the food, drinks, and experience. Highly recommend.

I go to here for a conference dinner, the atmosphere is very good, the food is also good, but the conference management arranged the dinner and live music, so I can't say much about the normal conditions of the restaurant, but If you want to arrange a private party here, this is a very good place. You can also go here for dinner with your wife and girlfriend. I can't say much about the prices here because the food was from the conference, but such places. But the prices are always high but when we go to such a place we never see the price but the quality of the food and the atmosphere.

Great way to spend a Saturday in Abu Dhabi! Greet food and fun music with the most attentive staff ! A big shout out to Ulfa, Ducks, Inati, Marie, Kathy and Upasana as they fulfilled every request we had. The cherry on the top However was the kids area - all sacked out with cute decorations and buffet dedicated to their simple tastes ! Kids were entertained while the parents chilled and chatted ! Definitely coming back ❤️❤️

We had a great meal here from the half board menu. Food was excellent 👍

First brunch here at Nahaam - won’t be the last. Wonderful service by Temi, food choices were amazing. The band that played were joyful with a great mix of music for all. Recommended!

The restaurant is truly wonderful and elegant. The food was absolutely delicious, and I would like to thank the chef for the amazing dishes. Special thanks to Mohammed Danish and Bikram for their warm welcome and outstanding hospitality.

The food tasted amazing - kebab from the mixed grill just melted in the mouth, salmon with the spices - just didn't feel like you were eating fish. The main course of Lobster and Lamb were terrific - the fusion of spices and masala blends were heavenly - if I wasn't sitting at the Punjabi Grill in the Ritz Carlton in Abu Dhabi I would have imagined I was sitting in Mumbai. Food is truly authentic Punjabi / Indian food. The Kulfi had a fusion of tastes that savour the palate - must try to understand. Complements to the Chef, Bar man who made the most interesting fusion of cocktails and finally we received amazing service and really cared for by all the staff especially Afroz whose knowlege on the dishes was amazing. Thank you also for playing my music playlist while we ate - that authenticated the restaurant ambiance and we could tell that the staff also enjoyed the mix / change of music. We sat inside the restaurant is beautifully decorated too. Thank you again to Punjabi Grill for a memorable evening ! Truly amazing !

One of the best fine dining Indian restaurants I have been to. Excellent food and service to top it. Afroz, Basant took great care of us. Chef Bishnoy is just exemplary. Don’t miss this if you are in Abu Dhabi.

Had our family dinner at Punjab grill on my birthday and it was a splendid experience. We were satisfied with the ambience and delicacies. The cocktails and mocktail were superb. There were a vast number of dishes to choose from. The starters and the main course were really good. I was also treated with a complimentary slice of cake for my special day. Special mention to Mr Bikram who served us well 😊

Had a wonderful dinner at Punjab Grill Abu Dhabi. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, but what really stood out was the service. Harbir took such great care of us—friendly, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

The restaurant is elegant and refined, with beautiful décor and excellent service. The food is delicious, especially the biryani, cheese bread, and meat stew. They offer complimentary treats at the start and end of the meal. I would definitely visit again and highly recommend it.

This seriously might be one of the best Indian spots I’ve experienced in Abu Dhabi. From refreshing fruit-flavored cocktails to really delicious food, every moment was pure delight. Plus, the ‘Sips of Summer’ stamp card challenge made it even more fun: collect five stamps and enjoy the sixth drink on the house 🍸🥥🍹 Bonus: drop your full card in the draw for a chance to win a dinner at the end of the month. Highly recommend this gem for an unforgettable dining experience and of-course Sips of Summer. Can’t wait to go back! 💫

A disappointing experience. I was so excited to come here to try the food because the menu had so menu great options, but maybe I ordered the wrong things. First off the seafood soup was just okay. Now I admit I don’t prefer tomato-based soups, but this was actually better than I expected after I saw it was red. But, I think a light clear or thick white seafood soups would have been much better. Then, the lobster ravioli comes out also with a tomato/red sauce. Why have two seafood dishes with the same taste palette? Again, the lobster ravioli should have had a white buttery/garlic sauce. I don’t know why there was so much red sauce with seafood! To me, a bad culinary decision. But in the end, not only the worse choice, but it wasn’t that good: undercooked and the stuffing seemed not fresh. The oysters were okay, and the bread was great. But the cocktail wasn’t great either!

I ordered Grilled Octopus for appetizer and Australian Beef Tenderloin for the main. The meat was perfectly cooked as desired. Service was a little off though coz it took an hour and 15mins to serve the steak. But overall I had a great time.

Amazing! I booked here for my partners birthday, the restaurant team could not be anymore helpful. I explained it was his birthday and that I wanted to ordered a desert but he didn’t like sweet things so could I order a cheeseboard, they went above and beyond! The food was amazing! Was one of the best steaks he had had. We went quite early around 6:30 so it was quiet but I can imagine it gets busier later and even though it was quiet there was a saxophonist who created a lovely atmosphere. Thank you again, much appreciated!

It was fantastic, I didn’t plan to make a review, that’s why the picture of the food is on the midway. Portions are big and it’s good quality Argentinian meet. Definitely will come back!

Delightful Saturday Brunch with Exceptional Service and Diverse Cuisine. The restaurant is luxurious, spacious, and beautifully decorated located in Marriott Hotel Al Fursan offering a delightful Saturday brunch experience with a diverse selection of delicious dishes. The buffet offers a wide range of options, including sushi and sashimi, a seafood tower served at the table, an array of hot starters, and a tasty grilled meat sharing plate. However, the desserts were a bit disappointing, except for the mochi (Japanese ice cream), which was quite good. The service is exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff. Recommended

Today, We revisited after a year and it was TERRIBLE.. We USED to be regulars at this restaurant for 7 years. They have introduced a new promotional concept on Fridays called "Butcher's Feast". We were shocked by how bad is the "feast". The meat was all cold, fatty and felt stale. The sauce was not even warm. Luckily the management was gracious and refunded two of our meals since we barely touched it. The restaurant was not busy but service staff was inattentive, you should demand to clear the table or refill water glasses. We would only return to eat the al a carte menu, if that.

Took the family to The Grill as it was my youngest daughter’s birthday. Had high expectations but unfortunately it fell short. Service was non existing, waited for more than 20 minutes for our beverage order, not even once did any of the waiters/waitresses stop by to ask if we needed anything. Food came after we had waited for more than an hour. Luckily daughter didn’t notice the non existing service. But for me it was a massive dissapointment and ill not be going back and I can’t recommend The Grill to anyone.

We visited Li Jiang at The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi on February 14th and opted for the Valentine’s Day set menu, which was priced at 600 AED for two (approximately 163 USD). Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations. From the start, the welcome felt inconsistent - every other table received warm towels except for us, which was an odd way to begin the evening. The set menu included five courses, but it took us an exhausting three hours to complete due to extremely slow service. After finishing the appetizers, we waited over 30 minutes for the salad, which turned out to be nothing more than shredded cucumbers and carrots with a few small pieces of seafood. When implementing a set menu for a special occasion, dishes should be well-prepared in advance, yet this was clearly not the case. The gap between each course was 30-40 minutes, and the portions were so tiny that we finished each dish in under five minutes - only to then sit and wait for the next one. Service-wise, we had mixed feelings. The set menu included soft beverages, but no one asked us what we wanted until we specifically requested it after our first starter. It became increasingly clear that the restaurant was not prepared for the evening, as we saw waiters rushing around in a half-empty restaurant. We shared our feedback, and while the staff apologized, the experience had already been ruined. The final frustration came when settling the bill. After handing over 500 AED to pay 300 AED, we waited 15 minutes for the change. When I finally asked about it, the waitress replied that she assumed I didn’t need change since I hadn’t explicitly asked for it. In a restaurant of this level, should guests really have to remind the staff to bring back their own money? That’s absolutely ridiculous. Even after sharing our disappointment, they still presumed the change was a tip - which left a very sour taste.

Excellent overall experience the value to price ratio is consistent with this restaurant being in a up market area. The hotel staff were exceptional as one of the managers helped me down the stairs as I had a bad foot. Upon entering the hotel it has class. The restaurant is located through the lobby down the stairs and on the right. There are elevators for those that have mobility challenges. There was a live pianist while I was walking through which was super pleasant to listen to. The restaurant entrance has walls of sake and the place to go is outside with a view of the grand mosque. Starters were edame beans and crackers. With the all you can eat sushi on a Tuesday as part of a set menu. The sushi and sashimi were super with the sweet soya sauce. The mains were rich and dessert on point. They have a wide variety of drinks available. Would definitely comeback here. Excellent venue for a business dinner or date.

Superb Japanese restaurant located in Ritz Carlton hotel, with an excellent food and 5 stars service. We loved the concept of open kitchen and the huge variety of bottles of wine. They are running happy hour and other great offers.

Came for the Vietnamese night while on holiday. The food was exquisite. Everything on the menu was amazing and was truly some of the best Asian food I’ve ever had- In the uae and abroad. The espresso martini also was amazing.

This restaurant is in Abu Dhabi and honestly although I live in Dubai I couldn't be happier to drive down for a meal there. We were there last night after two years as and although the food was fairly good, I felt that it was not the sans quality as it had been previously. We ordered quite a few starters, and main courses as well, I would recommend the chicken Satay in starters and in the main course we tried Sweet and Sour Chicken which was average, the chicken pad Thai was good, duck curry was great as well. I feel the food is not the same standard as before so hopefully they can make some improvements on the menu. Portions are small. Lovely view outdoors.

A really good restaurant at the Ritz Carlton Abu Dhabi. We tried the Chinese and Thai food and they were both great. Really high level and better than some of the big name choices in the city. Definitely worth a visit.

A delightful experience! Located at the Ritz Carlton, this Pan Asian themed restaurant does provide some delectable fare. Tasteful decor, airy and pleasant environment,fully licensed , ably manned by pleasant staff are the points to root for. None of the above, however, would be important if the food is not appetising. The restaurant scores high on food ,flavourful and well presented. A wide range of mixed drinks are available to set the stage for a please evening. We tried the Californian sushi rolls , the Uramaki sushi rolls , Chowmein with beef, and Li Jiang fried rice, each of which was superlative. We topped it off with some Turan a dessert made of banana and pineapple, which was the perfect way to end the meal. Certainly, I would visit again to try some more of their specialties.

Namak @ Dusit Thani, Abu Dhabi Recently, we had dinner at Namak, and it was a delightful experience overall. The ambience was decent, and the dishes were not only tasty but also generous in portion size. What truly elevated our evening was the exceptional service. A special mention goes to Ms. Pooja (Team Head) and Ms. Aasha, whose warm and attentive service made the experience truly memorable.

Namak stands out for its refined take on Indian cuisine. The dishes are beautifully presented and packed with rich, layered flavors that reflect true culinary craftsmanship. Each item, from starters to desserts, feels thoughtfully curated. The ambiance adds to the experience: elegant and inviting. It’s the perfect place when you’re in the mood for elevated Indian dining that still stays true to its roots.

Was nice experience😊 Went for the Grand Nashta on Sunday which is almost a brunch Started by the chai was good they were able to get us the no sugar chai😉 Then the feast starts tried almost every thing, food was good and service as well... I like the interior nice colors😁 The dosa was my favorate👌 The dessert section had some nice options and fruits and some nice youghurt as a dessert The tea chai coffee and water is unlimited

Some of the best Indian food I've had (never been to India).

After a long tiring day in Mubadala, we wanted to fill our tummy with some delicious food and Namak was our priority yesterday. Delicious mutton, tender tandoori, tangy prawns, soft Naan, Biryani full of fragrance and exotic vegetables. Thank you very much and your service was amazing. We will visit once again soon!

Me and my husband had gone to Namak for lunch and our experience was very very disappointing, no wonder we didn’t find anyone else other than ourselves. As starters we ordered goolgapa and to our shock the puris were very stale and not at all fresh. Then we thought maybe main course might be good and ordered Mint lacha parrata, potato kulcha with Batti ka Buna Gosht, you won’t believe it, the kulcha and the parata was totally bland, not a pinch of salt added to it. I had to ask for salt separately. The Buna Gosht was a total flop. Along with the main course we had ordered Aloo side dish with pomegranates in it, and we got another shock after tasting the aloos, it was completely undercooked and didn’t have any taste, they just put 3 seeds of pomegranate. After all this disappointments we decided not to go for dessert, coz surely even that would have been an utter flop. We’ve had similar dishes from other simple North Indian outlets, and they are 1000 times better in taste and service than this SO CALLED MICHELIN STAR NAMAK!!! 😡😡😡. These dishes for just the 2 of us costed 500+. We will never again visit Namak.

Very good restaurant most important mot much crowded. Food was excellent and service was so much good. I had reservations for my special occasion and Ms Sushita make it so much memorable, it will be in my memory forever. Thank you for arranging the eggless cake, and Mr Salman for such a good service. Will visit again soon .

One of the best Lebanese restaurants in Abu Dhabi, located in The Galleria Mall. The food was exceptional, rich in flavor and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly and professional. The atmosphere was charming, with an artist playing live Levantine music A truly enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommended!

The staff are amazing. The seating area is vast and comfortable, perfect for relaxing and enjoying a meal. And speaking of meals, the food is simply amazing. Each dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience. However, the smell of the smoke wasn't great at all. لذيذ والخدمة ممتازة. لم يغلقوا منطقة المدخنين بشكل جيد

Almayass Restaurant… Food 👇 The humus and tabouleh were absolutely delicious. We also ordered tikka lamb and shish taouk and they were both cooked perfectly and really yummy. The kebab karaz as well as the batata hara were the best. The arayyis was decent but not as good as the rest. Service is perfect ✔️ Staff are welcoming and well trained ✔️ The restaurant is expensive considering its in side a mall.., we paid 1298 UAE for 9 person which is approximately 144 UAE / 39 USD Highly recommended to visit it. Hussain 🇰🇼

I had the baby boneless chicken and I’m sorry to say it wasn’t great. Very chewy. Lacked any flavour and I really wasn’t a fan of the sauce they put on it (personal preference of course.) Ice cream was nice. Service was good.

Almayass has always been a family favourite! Their dishes are delicious and unique, I just can’t get enough of that amazing cherry flavour. If I could suggest one thing, it would be to add a few new desserts to the menu, as the current selection feels a bit limited. Otherwise, everything is always exceptional and full of flavour!

We had a lovely evening enjoying Lebanese and Armenian food. The service was good and attentive, and the dishes were well-cooked. Definitely worthy of being in the Michelin Guide.

My favorite Lebanese restaurant in Abu Dhabi. I love their cherry kebab, hummus bellahme, batata harra and their fresh bread! I hope they bring back the complementary fruit platter. Anjanette service was exceptional as always!

A great place for a celebration. They offer delicious Indian food that would make you a fan of this cuisine. Classy decor as well as courteous staff. It would have been a five star rating if only the price was a little bit less. Even with entertainer app, the tab still put a little dent in the wallet. But our overall experience was great and memorable.

Atmosphere and service what defines this place, excellent job. As far as the food goes, well lets just say i have tasted much better quality. The beryani had no taste, and the bread that came with our dish was so artificial. I think if they work on the ingredients, they will be one of the best restaurants in the capital.

With the best desserts in the city, an array of timeless signature dishes and many new menu additions Tamba is always a great place to dine. Add in the fantastic service and stylish decor and it's an all round winner. Add Tamba to your 'must-try' list and don't let its mall location put you off - it's fully licensed and has a good atmosphere. The Indian-inspired cuisine is top notch, make sure to leave room for dessert because they are all worth sampling but definitely try my favourite, the chocolaty deliciousness that is the Break-up.

My wife and I were on an afternoon adventure exploring the all the nooks and crannies of the WTC Mall and our last stop was Tamba. We had been wanting to try this restaurant out but just never made it their. It was late afternoon when we stopped by. We slowly opened the door to see if their were open for customers, the place was void of customers. We were warmly greeted and asked if we wanted a table or to just sit at the bar. We opted for the bar. The decor and overall atmosphere for Tamba is sexy and chic. The colors are warm and alluring and I can imagine the they shimmer in the dimmed lighting and candle glow. We had a great server who quickly shared his knowledge of the menu and assisted us in selecting a couple of items. My description of the menu is Indian fusion. Many of the dishes are high end interpretations of Indian street foods. Check out the crazy video in the images below. The kitchen is opened to the dining area and all our dishes were served quickly. We had a basket of assorted naan... it was over the top versions of naan and each was quite different. We had a great afternoon and look forward to going back as the weather cools down to enjoy their rooftop seating. Tamba is definitely a restaurant for those fancy nights out and we can't wait for one of those again!

Astounding food with amazing ambience. However food quantity was not adequate compared to rates of the dishes. 3 or more dish one should order to urge over the starvation. Recommending Tamba to increase the food quantity. Also, there is no live music as told by Zomato and Google.

Understandably this is bar oriented place. Ambience is good spinning around Tamba theme We tried a starter n main course Delhi bite was chat based dish with on the table mixing and added effect by pouring liquid nitrogen. Crisoy Okra in lababdar sauce was good though also required mixing on the table. Bread basket was good but bite size rotis..... Pub food? But main course wee bit small. Food taste was good. Mocktails were good but sadly they did not allow Zomato Gold offer. Servers can do with smiles I guess. Presentation is best. Taste is good. Best suited for bar visits.

Best food we have ever eaten. 40 countries and hundreds, if not thousands, of restaurants later - nowhere compares to Tamba. The staff are so friendly and caring, the food is on another level, the restaurant is beautiful - you literally just cannot fault it. There are plenty of high-end restaurants in Abu Dhabi but Tamba is what we miss most. We have moved to London now and a year later are still yet to find anywhere that comes close to it. Tamba is truly in a league of its own. If it weren't for COVID, it would probably be worth flying back to Abu Dhabi just for Tamba. Cannot wait to go again. If you ever get the chance to visit, go! You will not regret it, it is one of the best dining experiences you will ever have.

I visited Verso for brunch and was truly impressed! The Italian food was absolutely delicious — authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and beautifully presented dishes. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for excellent Italian cuisine in Abu Dhabi. I’ll definitely be back!

Cozy and calm on the Sunday evening that we were there. Good food as well - the pizza Nerano was a pleasant surprise and delicious, as was the hazelnut mousse dessert. The restaurant is on the pricier side but a great place for a special outing! P.S., the menu on the Grand Hyatt page is outdated so some items are missing.

Visiting this place was the best detour I had in a while. It was not planned but I fell upon a piece of art. Delicious food. Great staff. 10/10 customer service. Also, hearts of gold. Thank you for the kind hospitality. 🤍 I appreciate it and will be back… for the food and to steal the cow portraits. 🐮 Loved them!!!

Brunch - Delicious and authentic food The restaurant manager Tomasso was exceptionally warm and hospitable, making us feel truly welcome. Great service from Amelia

The food was amazing, lovely service especially from Madhumali, chef Vittorio and chef qinta. So recommend and everything is perfect

This was the most relaxing, best food & service I've had in 12 years of living in the UAE. We were 4 couples with our young kids. The manager was so friendly, welcoming & professional all day. And the food - AMAZING! Everything was so fresh. You could tell the kitchen took pride in every dish. THANK YOU for an amazing day - we'll be back!

i really like the food and the ambience specially the service and there’s one waitress serve me really friendly and i like her, her name is madhu she’s really kind and helpful and i want to kiss her

Very busy restaurant for lunch on the weekend! Service is fast and staff very attentive to all our needs. Wide variety of starters, mains and of course pasta / pizza. Multiple size portion proposed for one or to share. Little pricey for the overall experience but the food is really well presented, tasty and delicious. And very tempting creamy ice cream when you reach the exit, a mandatory stop to make sure you can leave the place with a refreshing wonderful memory!

We had a wonderful experience at Antonia Restaurant! The atmosphere was warm and inviting — the kind of place where you instantly feel relaxed. The fregola was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked and full of authentic flavor. A special mention goes to Mattia, who provided exceptional service with a smile throughout the evening. His attention to detail and friendly attitude made the experience even better. If you’re looking for great food, good vibes, and genuine hospitality, this is the place to be. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Antonia is hands down the best Italian pizza restaurant in Saadiyat. The pizzas are fresh, light, and full of authentic flavor, and the atmosphere makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a little corner of Italy. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the pasta and starters are just as good as the pizza. Make sure you leave space for dessert because the Bomba is honestly the best I’ve ever had. A place you’ll want to keep coming back to. 🤗🤭⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We recently visited Antonia at Mamsha Beach, Saadiyat Island with my husband and our close friends, and it turned out to be an amazing find! My husband and I had been planning to celebrate our anniversary at an Italian restaurant since we both love Italian cuisine, and stumbling upon Antonia by chance made the evening even more special. Although the restaurant was quite busy, we were seated quickly. The staff were exceptional ,very cooperative, welcoming, always smiling, and genuinely helpful. They even guided us through the menu and took special care with one of our friends who has a seafood allergy. We ordered the crispy calamari with truffle sauce, Aperol Spritz, and some mocktails – all fantastic. For mains, we had the beef pasta (can’t recall the Italian name!) and the truffle pizza, both bursting with flavor. By the end, we were quite full but couldn’t resist dessert – the tiramisu and lemon sorbet were the perfect finish, followed by a classic espresso to complete the Italian experience. The ambience was lovely, with a relaxing beachside view and a cozy, quirky aesthetic that felt very inviting. The only minor challenge was finding parking, but we managed to park a short walk away ,totally worth it. Overall, a fantastic spot for authentic Italian food, great service, and a warm atmosphere. We’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes!

A friend of us recommended us Antonia. What a great surprise! We were offered for Lobster with Pasta, it was out of the menu and it was a great experience. Pizza and salad were the rest of the order. All was delicious and the best and most surprising was the amazing attitude and service from Jenny. Thank you all of you guys for your great hospitality and job. We got a real good impression of your service !!!

Lesli and Bhone are the best. They deserve bonus! Lesli nicely and polite sold us wine, gelato and limoncello, she’d done it very professionally and with amazing vibe and mood! Bhone is very nice, polite and served us in time! Thank you so much for all the team! And manager has asked how was everything! We’re so happy. Thanks a lot.

The place is beautiful with a wonderful atmosphere. I absolutely fell in love with their pizza — it tastes amazing and is definitely worth trying! The staff were friendly and attentive, and I really appreciated how caring they were with kids. Overall, I highly recommend this place

Had an amazing experience! The quality of the food is very good! Service is perfect, especially, Irfan was great!

Outstanding Seafood Experience! This restaurant delivers perfection. The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and seated promptly in a cozy, elegant setting that immediately set the tone for an exceptional dining experience. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The oysters were incredibly fresh, the grilled lobster was cooked to absolute perfection. The cocktails are also very good and served with some sweet smiles. The service was impeccable — the hostess was very polite and attentive too (Rihanna) she’s the best for sure and together with the chef who presented the food himself to us. Whether you’re a seafood lover or just someone looking for a world-class dining experience, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back soon — it’s easily one of the best seafood restaurants I’ve ever been to! If you’re looking for something more authentic seafood this place is the best. Surely I will come back. ✨🍣🍤

I had a wonderful experience at Turtle Bay Bar and Grill. Miki, our server, provided exceptional service, enhancing our dining experience. The special dishes were expertly cooked, and the ambiance was delightful. Highly recommend this establishment!

Had a wonderful dinner at Turtle Bay! The food was amazing and the atmosphere was perfect. A special thanks to Ashraf, who was very kind and made the evening even more enjoyable with his attentive service.

We recently had the pleasure of dining at The Turtle Bay Bar and Grill and we must say, the food was simply incredible, exceeding all our expectations. Each dish was bursting with flavour and beautifully presented. From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, Karim, Ashraf and Claudia went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. The attentiveness and genuine warmth truly enhanced our meal! We highly recommend this restaurant and we will be definitely returning and recommending this restaurant to our friends and family.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at TURTLE BAY BAR & GRILL Saadiyat Rotana Resort & Villas. The atmosphere was amazing and the menu offered a fantastic selection of food. I especially enjoyed their flavorful ribeye steak and mouth-watering tomato soup. The highlight of the meal was the luxurious golden sprinkle ice cream for dessert. Additionally, their children's menu was impressive, carefully catering to younger guests. My experience in the restaurant was excellent, the waiters Karim and Anita were very attentive, polite, and helped me navigate the menu. I highly recommend this restaurant for a memorable dining experience.

We stayed at the Rotana Resort and ate here on three occasions. The quality of seafood is fantastic and the variety on the menu means you could eat here every night of the week and not get bored. Highlights are the sushi, the catch of the day (Dentex, Sherry Fish and Bream were very good). Service is also very attentive. Would recommend asking for an outside table too.

Amazing experience ❤️ Everything was just perfect: the view, the location, the service, and of course, the cuisine. We also appreciated the welcome glass of Taittinger. Since we were staying at the hotel, we got a discount - another lovely surprise. Thank you, Bord Eau, for an amazing evening!

Dinner at Bord Eau by Nicolas Isnard was a memorable experience. Located in Shangri-La Abu Dhabi, Bord Eau is a French restaurant that offers classic French dishes with a contemporary flair. The venue is elegant and beautiful, we enjoyed their 4-course tasting menu. Everything from the food, drinks to ambiance and service was excellent.

Had an incredible dining experience at BORD EAU Restaurant. I tried the NICOLAS ISNARD “TRAVELS AROUND THE WORLD” set menu, and it was absolutely amazing. Each course was thoughtfully crafted with a perfect balance of flavors — creative, well-executed, and full of surprises. You can really tell the passion and skill behind each dish. The ambiance was great, and the service matched the high standard of the food. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique fine dining experience!

A hidden gem of French cuisine in Abu Dhabi! Signature onion soup, snails, amuse bouche... But the dessert... very delicious and super light... Salute to the Chef and his curated menu!

Our experience at Bord Eau by Nicolas Isnard was truly unforgettable. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with impeccable service and a stunning ambiance that set the stage for what was to come. The restaurant itself is elegant and sophisticated, with a touch of modernity that added to the overall experience. We opted for the a dish from each country, which allowed us to try a variety of dishes that showcased Chef Isnard's creativity and talent. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, showcasing a perfect balance of textures and aromas. From the delicate Caviar to the succulent Wagu, each bite was a delight for the senses. But what truly set Bord Eau apart was the use of elements in the dishes. We experienced dishes that were infused with different elements, which added an extra layer of intrigue to the dining experience. It was amazing to see how these elements changed the way we perceived the flavours and textures of the food, making each dish a truly unique and exciting experience. Overall, dining at Bord Eau was a culinary journey like no other. The combination of exceptional food, stellar service, and innovative use of elements made for a dining experience that was truly unforgettable. I would highly recommend Bord Eau to anyone looking for a dining experience that is both luxurious and exciting.

Last night, my spouse and I indulged in what can only be described as an extraordinary culinary journey at Bord’eau — a confidential fine dining French establishment. Opting for the six-course tasting menu, we were guided through a thoughtfully curated progression of flavor, texture, and technique. Each dish was a testament to classical French mastery, elevated with contemporary flair and exotic twist — from the delicate amuse-bouche to the perfectly executed mains, not a note was out of tune. The wine, selected with discernment by the sommelier, danced effortlessly with the food. The ambiance was equally enchanting with just the right lighting and decor. It felt like stepping into a quiet pocket of Parisian elegance. Service, too, was flawless. Rémi and his team were attentive but never intrusive. Every dish arrived with quiet confidence, and every question was met with genuine enthusiasm. This was jut not dinner - it was an amazing experience that lingers on the palate. This place is a must-visit for any discerning gourmand.

Bord Eau offers an amazing combination of great food, excellent service, and a lovely atmosphere. Every dish was perfectly prepared, the staff were attentive and professional especiall John, and the overall vibe made it a truly memorable evening. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fine-dining experience in Abu Dhabi

We visited the restaurant yesterday (Sunday) and was really blown away by the attentive service and incredible food. Our lovely server paid great attention to us and our daughter, we appreciated him taking time to listen to her make her own order. To decided on trying the tacos and the pork board. The tacos were the perfect sized portion and packed full of flavour. Our pork board was a great balance of crunch and tender meats with the tastiest sauces. Outside seating had a relaxed vibe and lovely view of palm trees and the outside projector.

This place is very nice and the service which is the most important thing for me was excellent. The food was delicious: we ordered a burger and some desserts, and everything was amazing. The food came super fast, the place was spotless, and I would definitely go back

Great food and service. Lawcin took wonderful care of us. The pub smelled a bit smokey from the previous game night. Lawcin opened the door to help with the ventilation of fresh air. Lawcin took great care of us, we will be back.

Absolutely awful experience here, I really don't understand the previous good reviews. Service was terrible, atmosphere was poor as smoking allowed inside. Food was terrible. Service - we booked however it took a while for them to find our booking after we were told they were fully booked. We were told to go and sit over there and not shown to our table. We waited a long time before drink and food order was taken. Food took a while then starters and mains all arrived at the same time, one of our mains didn't arrive at all but we had lost the will to live so left it as it was. Our second drinks order was incorrect. After we had been there an hour and a half we gave up on them coming to clear away our mains. Service wasn't friendly, we felt unwelcome. Food - no halloumi starter available. Ordered the honey chicken where they must have used the worst pieces of chicken ever - literally deep fried chicken fat and gristle. The buffalo chicken burger for mains was actually quite good. I'm really not sure what there is to like about this place!

The food & service was really nice and our waiter, Lin was fantastic! He greeted us with a warm smile and made great recommendations from the menu. He checked on us regularly without being intrusive and made sure our drinks were always full. The service was fast and friendly. So, we will definitely come back

We have visited Hamiltons several times during our stay, the food is so good, but one warning the portions are huge. The whole team are so friendly and can't do enough for you. It's a great sports bar, there are at least seven screens, viewing whatever you would like. There is an outdoor screen which apparently will get used from next weekend when it is a little cooler. There is a pool table. They serve a great pork belly, which is on a special license.

Thank you to Lin & Ayud for always taking such great care of us! We come here every week because of the amazing staff, so fun amazing take care of us full time and we feel like home. the great vibe truly our best pub vibe in Abu Dhabi and the overall awesome experience.
