Restaurants Near and Middle East cuisine Al Ain

This is a nice place where you can mingle with the Emiratis who take over the restaurant at mealtime. On the menu: saloona, a kind of soup with meat, similar to goulash, or the very hearty machboos, a dish made of rice and meat cooked with spices and cooked for a long time at very low temperature. For desserts and without hesitation, take the small fritters called lekeimat covered with date syrup. No alcohol is served in this establishment.

Within the Rotana hotel, a few steps away from the Al Jahili fort, here is a very pleasant Lebanese restaurant. It offers a terrace in front of the pool, but out of the sun. This place is renowned for its traditional Lebanese cuisine. You will like to have some mezze, like hummus, babaganoush, fattoush salad, and of course manakish with zaatar. The dishes are very copious, but if you are still a little hungry, don't hesitate to have the lamb keftas! Mediterranean atmosphere with live concerts and dances. Shisha on the terrace.

This is another of the city's popular restaurants. Nestled in the Radisson Blu Hotel, this restaurant, whose name means "my place" in Arabic, is one of the best in the city. The atmosphere is pleasant thanks to its terrace surrounded by palm trees. On the menu, tasty Levantine cuisine like delicious mezze, manakish and saj. Otherwise, a lot of people go there to smoke shisha to the sounds of oriental music. Come for dinner and stay for a nightcap. Friendly, attentive and fast service.

We come here more for the atmosphere than for the food which is correct, but not exceptional. It is above all a Lebanese family restaurant. The pleasant garden with its fountain in which there are tables and sofas is a call to relaxation, a good place to come and rest at the end of a long day of exploring the city. You can order some mezzes, a pizza, a shawarma, a shisha or a fresh juice. Sometimes, an oud player, a small orchestra are there in the evening. Often a lot of atmosphere on the weekends.
