Al Mrzab Traditional Restaurant

If you are searching for an authentic Emirati restaurant in Abu Dhabi then definitely you must try Al Mrzab Traditional Restaurant. The menu has a variety of Emirati and Gulf dishes. The Saffron welcoming drink is very tasty and refreshing. The food presentation is amazing and the taste is very delicious (No wonder the restaurant won 3 Michelin awards for 3 years on a row). The service was really nice. The staff were welcoming, smiling all the time and very professional. I highly recommend this restaurants if you are looking for an authentic Emirati taste.

Al Mrzab Traditional Restaurant is a hidden gem for authentic Emirati cuisine! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a beautiful traditional setup that makes you feel right at home. The food is absolutely delicious—every dish is rich in flavor and cooked to perfection. The Majboos, Harees, and Luqaimat were standout dishes, capturing the true essence of local flavors. Service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure everything was perfect. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. If you’re looking for a true taste of the UAE, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

The meal started with a fresh Fattoush salad, a mix of crisp vegetables, pomegranate seeds, and crunchy pita chips, lightly dressed with a zesty vinaigrette. Alongside it, the hummus was rich and creamy, pairing perfectly with the soft, warm flatbread. The highlight of the meal was the Machboos, a fragrant rice dish topped with tender, flavorful chicken and lamb, slow-cooked with aromatic spices and lentils. The portion was generous, making it perfect for sharing. The addition of boiled eggs added a nice touch of richness to the dish. Service was efficient, and the overall experience felt like a step into the heart of traditional Emirati cuisine. Whether you're a local or a visitor looking for a taste of authentic Gulf flavors, Al Mrzab is definitely a must-try. Highly recommended!

A traditional restaurant for Emirati food. It was a nice surprise that an ethnic Uzbek Afghan waiter greeted us in Turkish and helped us with the menu. It’s a bit challenging to choose from the menu since there were only a few photos. We ordered a shrimp dish with tomato sauce and a lamb dish. Both came with rice. Lamb was really delicious. Shrimp was meh. The complimentary saffron drinks and dates were nice. The arugula salad was refreshing. Service was quick and efficient.

Amazing food and service staff....I will definitely be back!

Food and service were top notch! Very tasty local food, the best I tried so far!
