The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort invites you to indulge in irresistible Greek specialties at the fabulous new MAZI Abu Dhabi. ‘MAZI’, which translates to mean ‘together’ in Greek, is a fine-casual restaurant that boasts a stunning setting that exudes a cosy ambience and positive vibes.
Diners can choose to be seated indoors, amidst a warm, rustic dining room or dine al fresco on a charming terrace teeming with lush greenery and delicate olive trees. The gorgeous outdoor space also features an exclusive wood and fire grill, where the restaurant’s culinary team puts on a show rustling up a myriad of succulent grills.
MAZI Abu Dhabi’s menu is inspired by the childhood memories of founders Christina Mouratoglou and Adrien Carré, successful Greek restauranteurs and entrepreneurs. After launching MAZI London in Notting Hill to tremendous success, the pair of passionate food connoisseurs are keen to introduce gourmands in the UAE to MAZI’s innovative, yet laidback style of feasting, where each delectable dish is brought to the table as soon as it is ready to be served.
Specifically designed to be savoured amongst the company of loved ones, the carefully-curated menu by MAZI London’s Greek Chef also showcases the most enticing nuances and treasured cultural traditions of Greece. Diners are encouraged to reach for favourites including Tzatziki, Greek salad, Kavourosalata (crab salad) and Grilled calamari; or take their pick from unique creations comprising Feta tempura, Shredded lamb shoulder tacos and Sea bass tartare.
Those on a gluten-free diet can tuck into options from a dedicated gluten-free menu, with tempting palate pleasers such as Chicken thigh souvlaki skewers and Artichoke risotto à la polita making an appearance.
Further accentuating this impressive assortment, is a sublime selection of some of the finest Greek grapes, premium beverages and bespoke mixed concoctions, inspired by Greece and infused with fruits and fresh herbs sourced from different regions across the Grecian landscape.
Every dish from MAZI Abu Dhabi’s kitchen is plated with only the finest fresh and sustainably-sourced seasonal ingredients from some of the best producers in the region; making this new restaurant a perfect choice for a casual lunch, a special soirée with family and friends, or a romantic dinner with a loved one.
