SushiArt: Japanese Precision with a French Accent at The Galleria

Sushi designed for everyday use

SushiArt sits in an interesting space between premium sushi bar and highly polished casual dining. The Galleria describes the concept as traditional sushi given a modern French twist, using fresh, quality ingredients and signature recipes developed by recognised chefs. That French influence is part of the brand’s long-standing identity rather than a reason to expect heavy fusion on every plate. The core remains Japanese: sushi, sashimi, rolls and the kind of neat lunch-box format that works just as well for delivery as it does at a table. This Al Maryah Island branch is therefore useful precisely because it does not demand a special-occasion mindset.

Presentation is part of the proposition

The ‘Art’ in the name is not subtle. SushiArt has always placed visual composition alongside freshness, which suits The Galleria’s more polished restaurant environment. Current local listings show Japanese and sushi as the defining cuisines, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options also available. The menu is broad enough for a mixed group but the restaurant makes most sense when the order is built around several different pieces and rolls rather than a single large main course. Recent 2026 reviews are mixed on service consistency but continue to treat the food itself as the reason to return, which is useful context for an editorial guide: the product remains the central strength.

Be precise about which SushiArt you mean

Abu Dhabi now has more than one SushiArt location, so this feature is specifically for the branch at The Galleria Al Maryah Island. The mall currently lists it on Level 2, Section A, with Sunday-to-Thursday hours from 10am to 10pm and Friday-Saturday service until midnight. The direct number shown by The Galleria is +971 2 674 9100. That branch-level clarity matters because older listings can blur addresses and telephone numbers across the network. For Simply Abu Dhabi, SushiArt is best framed as a dependable, contemporary sushi option rather than a destination omakase: polished, accessible, delivery-friendly and especially convenient for business lunches, shopping breaks and an uncomplicated Japanese dinner on Al Maryah Island.
