Le Boulanger
For stunning views of the city’s skyline and reasonably priced, tasty mezze try Le Boulanger near the breakwater. The selection of hot and cold mezze is substantial and the no-frills, no-fuss food is top quality. They do excellent tabouleh and fattoush. Contact: 02 681 8194
Lebanese Flower
Having spent many years living in Abu Dhabi, we have come to the conclusion that nowhere beats the Lebanese Flower on Defense Road for mezze. AED 10 will get you a generous portion of delicious hummus, best enjoyed slathered on chunks of their soft, freshly baked bread. The staff are always friendly and often dish out complimentary desserts. Contact: 02 642 1117
Cedar Lounge
If you are in the mood for high-end mezze try the Fairmont Bab Al Bahr’s Cedar Lounge. They have taken traditional Arabic mezze and add their own unique, modern twist to dishes. We recommend the sushi-style vine leaves and avocado hummus. Contact: 02 654 3223
