K Jishi: tried the breakfast for 2 and i really enjoyed it. It has different options and all plates were good and yummy. We also had a manakeesh which had generous amount of cheese and tasted good. The waiter was so kind to offer my 2 daughters ice-cream after they have finished their breakfast. Also the breakfast comes with complimentary tea for 4. I will definitely go back again!

Hassan Awada: We went for dinner on a Friday night. The experience was OK, not very busy hence quite vibes. The food was good, it was fresh, warm and on time. Everything was cooked well except for the dynamite shrimps, they were a bit soggy and not 100% fresh. However everything was good that I am willing to ignore that. The selection of food is really good, it covers most Asian dishes. The staff were attentive and very friendly. Definitely recommended and will be go there again.

Hassan Awada: You might miss it as the sign outside is tiny, it’s just around the corner. We ordered the garlic and chili linguine with prawns, gone fishin (fancy way to say fish and chips) and the spicy rooster (another fancy way to say chicken burger). The food was really good, tasty and fresh. It’s reasonably priced, hence the portions are reasonable as well, not too big and not too small. The vibes and setting are beautiful, very casual yet trendy. The staff are friendly and attentive. Will definitely be coming back. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person AED 150–200

abdo Rami: I was one of the first customers visited Cerutti when it opened, and for years now, it continues to be my favourite restaurant for many occasions, family breakfast, business lunch or just going out with friends for dinner or snack. The staff are very helpful and their customer service skill’s developed significantly. Management are very attentive to details. Best meals for me there are breakfast, mix grills, salads and pasta never disappointing. The quality of food is more than very good and the time required for preparation is fast. They have in/out door seatings arrangements, and they serve sheesha as well. their sheesha is the best and many people were ordering it.

Y.C. 6001: Decided to try this Chinese restaurant in Abu Dhabi after a few days of Western and Arabic cuisine. The menu is pretty extensive, and it also serves dim sum on top of the typical Chinese meal. I’d have to say that the food is good, with above average serving portion. Prices are on the high side but it’s worth it 👌 Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person AED 100–150

Tyrone: I went for their Friday night hotpot brunch. It was super affordable, given that it’s all you can eat for the hot pot items. They have a sauce station setup on the outside patio and that’s also where they have the various hot pot items that you can grab and bring back to your table to cook. Everything was delicious and I’ll have to return for their normal menu items. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person AED 200–250

Qabas Al Lawati: Some of the best Chinese I’ve had in a while! Excellent service, decor, and ambiance.

Villa Toscana

Nation Towers – The St. Regis Abu Dhabi – W Corniche Rd – Abu Dhabi
DAVID DOUGLAS: Bit late in reviewing our amazing experience at Villa Toscana at St Regis Hotel, Corniche, in Abu Dhabi. During the Christmas celebrations my wife and I visited this lovely Italian restaurant on Christmas Day and returned again on New Years Eve. I contacted the Manager, Domenico, in advance, as we are both vegans and they went out of their way to prepare an amazing set vegan menu for both occasions. Domenico emailed us in advance to review the menu which made us feel very special. We were overjoyed with our Christmas Day experience so had no hesitation in booking for New Years Eve. We were very well attended to by Domenico and his team and cannot thank them enough for making our first Christmas and New Year in Abu Dhabi so memorable. Highly recommended, not just for vegans!

Al Mrzab Traditional Restaurant
Address :
Airport Road, behind the National Theatre – Abu Dhabi
Salem Ibrahim (Salem.Ibrahim): The place was quiet and peaceful. Food price is so reasonable compare to the other restaurants. I loved the taste of Chips, that was yammee and beef was so tender and juicy but I didn’t like much the chicken, I didn’t feel the taste of it. When you visit the place I would advise to taste Zafran drink, it is very tasty and nice. You will be able to refill it as many times as you like for free. In regards to parking it’s available at the door of the restaurant.

Gabriel Firmansyah: Nice experience, when we got in, there was a waiting list because a lot of people wanted to eat here! After we waited, we ordered our food and got complimentary saffron drink and dates, then the food came, I ordered Lamb Majbous and my friend ordered Biryani Chicken and some Shrimps, it was very delicious! The only problem was the toilet is too small and I had to wait just to wash my hands. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person AED 150–200
