There’s a new Lebanese restaurant in Abu Dhabi!

‍

Zali is now open in Al Bateen, and we encourage you to stop by.

‍

Zali, which was born in Bali, is now the place to go for Mediterranean-inspired Lebanese home cooking. They have provided us with the ideal fusion of classic Lebanese cuisine with a modern twist, bringing that same passion for food and community to Abu Dhabi. Not to mention the gorgeous interiors that were influenced by Bali's tranquil atmosphere and give Zali the feel of a chic, relaxed haven.

‍

What's the twist, then?

Zali's cuisine focuses on updating traditional dishes, such as mezze and substantial main courses, with contemporary twists. Think fresh, authentic flavours with Mediterranean influences and even a touch of Armenian goodness thrown in for fun! Whether you’re craving a light bite or something more filling, Zali has you covered.

One of the coolest parts of the menu? Their Lebanese-inspired bowls.

These are perfect for when you want a healthy, filling meal with tons of flavour – ideal for post-gym refuelling or just when you want something that’s both tasty and good for you. They’ve got vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options too, so there’s something for everyone. Brill for those with a sweet tooth

Got a sweet tooth? Zali doesn’t disappoint!

You have to try their tahini ice cream and crunchy olive oil ice cream – both made in-house and absolutely delicious. And for a real treat, their homemade halawa will have you hooked. If you're more interested in health-related topics, Zali has a lot to offer. They provide freshly made saj and sugar-free juices, mocktails, and smoothies that you may enjoy guilt-free.

Bali-inspired vibes with a hint of Lebanon

Now let's talk about the mood.

Inside Zali, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The interior of this apartment is more like a Bali-inspired retreat with Mediterranean accents. Soft color scheme, open spaces, and wooden furniture create the laid-back charm of the space.
