SIMPLY ABU DHABI
LPM Abu Dhabi at The Galleria has become one of the capital’s defining dining rooms by keeping its French-Mediterranean cooking bright, ingredient-led and built for sharing — a formula that placed it at No.47 in Middle East & North Africa’s 50 Best Restaurants 2026.
At Rosewood Abu Dhabi, Majlis by Pierre Hermé brings one of pastry’s most celebrated names into a distinctly local social setting, combining macarons, cakes, chocolate, afternoon tea and serious coffee with the relaxed hospitality of the majlis tradition.
Mare Mare at Jumeirah Saadiyat Island is a beachside Italian restaurant in the literal sense: relaxed, open-air and close enough to the Gulf that home-style pasta, seafood and long lunches feel naturally connected to the setting.
Market at The Abu Dhabi EDITION turns hotel breakfast into an all-day lifestyle restaurant, combining open-kitchen theatre, fresh and largely local ingredients, plant-forward choices and a menu that lets shakshuka, Turkish eggs or avocado toast arrive long after noon.
Martabaan at Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental translates chef Hemant Oberoi’s four-decade career into contemporary Indian fine dining, pairing signature plates such as Varqui Crab and Dum ki Nalli with Arabian Gulf views and continuing MICHELIN Guide recognition.
Maté at Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi builds its identity around wood fire, Argentine beef and the ritual of sharing, then folds Lebanese marinades and flavours into the grill-led menu for one of Saadiyat Island’s most distinctive MICHELIN-selected dinners.
The Matinee at The WB Abu Dhabi is a rare pool restaurant with a real sense of place: Mediterranean plates, grill favourites, a swim-up bar, splash pad and outdoor screen combine so families can eat without leaving the rhythm of a Yas Island resort day.
Mermaid at Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island turns dinner into a Mediterranean seaside occasion, combining Greek-leaning seafood, generous sharing plates, live music and Arabian Gulf views with the resort’s all-inclusive sense of ease.
Meylas in Al Muneera grew from founder Shaikha Al Kaabi’s wish to preserve the recipes and hospitality of Emirati homes, serving machboos, salona, regag, traditional drinks and breakfast dishes in a relaxed modern majlis setting.
Mijana at The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi, Grand Canal pairs polished Lebanese and Middle Eastern cooking with shisha, tea, live music and outdoor evening atmosphere, earning continued MICHELIN Guide selection in 2026.
