Lebanese Terrace — Restaurant in Abu Dhabi

Let me just begin with why I have marked it as 2 stars! Not because of the food or the location. It is because of the service and incident that has occurred to me yesterday. We have decided to have a quick bite at this Libanese restaurant after we have visited the hotel with a visitor. We have arrived to the restaurant and the lady from Philippines at the entrance said hello sir, table for 3.. Do you have a reservation? Well, please note that it was 4pm and the restaurant is huge and literally empty so I made a innocent joke saying hmm I dont think we need a reservation.. It is empty or are you expecting many ppl at 4 pm? With a smile.. She replied with an arrogance I rarely see in Dubai by saying well sir to dine at the hotel you have to have a reservation and even at the door of the hotel sometimes they wont let you in if you dont have a reservation.. I have stopped her and said.. Dont give me false informations and you shouldn't argue with your only client and with any client unless the words you are saying are at least relevant or true! For those who never visited the hotel.. Take note that the hotel is open to all as long as you wear something nicely casual ( no shorts, tanks and flipflops) thats allllll... And it always has been this way even when I last visited for a drink 3 years ago! I lookedat her and said thats not true.. And she looked at me and said with a sarcastic smile.. Okkk its not. I let go because I have spent a nice day and its worthless to make her day miserable as I was right!

I then knew that the hotel is undergoing a management shift and shall be under Mandarin Oriental soon.. GOOD because knowing the MO hotels.. A person with her attitude and her delusional facts will not DO!

The food is good snd and the rest of the team were ok although they seemed like they are doing as charity! Very expensive for a Libanese and for that place!

Libanese restaurants are everywhere in Dubai where you will find a feast for the soul...

We recently had dinner at Lebanese Terrace, located in the beautiful Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental in Abu Dhabi, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, who were attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly throughout the evening. The service was truly exceptional — every detail was taken care of, and we felt well looked after the entire time. The food was absolutely fantastic. Every dish we tried was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. From the cold mezze to the grilled meats and traditional mains, everything tasted authentic and delicious. You can really tell that a lot of care goes into the preparation and presentation of each dish. What made the evening even more special was the ambiance. The restaurant has a refined yet relaxed atmosphere, and we were lucky to have a talented musician playing guitar right by our table. It added a wonderful touch of warmth and charm to the overall experience, making the night feel even more special. If you're looking for an elegant yet authentic Lebanese dining experience in Abu Dhabi, Lebanese Terrace is a must-visit. We will definitely...

The Food is good but it’s like a machine did it like if you’re a person who eats at good restaurants and know what a really tasty food taste like you will not like it but if you’re someone who didn’t try a lot of restaurants in your life you will like it. However, the design and environment is good, I liked the design because it’s full of green and makes you feel you’re really in a palace restaurant. Lastly the people who serve need to show more energy like positive energy all the time on any circumstances toward any type of customer which I didn’t see and which could make the whole experience better. An advice don’t judge people when they enter your restaurant, so when they come inside your restaurant and sit down put one thing in your mind they are valuable customers this what will make you a different waiter and a server. The only person who show that positive welcoming energy is the Arabian lady at the entrance we rate her 5/5 in terms of making people feel welcoming and feel like eating at...
