I recently had the pleasure of dining again at Bu Tafesh seafood restaurant, one of the oldest eateries in the UAE, and I must say it was a very good experience. Established as a floating restaurant in Abu Dhabi back in 1968, this place has truly stood the test of time.
The seafood selection at Bu Tafesh is impressive, and as a seafood lover, I was delighted by the variety of options available. I decided to try the fried sea bass, and it was cooked to perfection. The fish was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with flavor.
To start off, I ordered two appetizers: hummus and potatoes with coriander. The hummus was creamy, but it tasted good. The potatoes with coriander were a delightful surprise, perfectly seasoned and complementing the main course well.
Aside from the delicious food, the service at Bu Tafesh was good. The waiters were prompt in taking orders, and the food arrived promptly as well.
One aspect that impressed me the most was the excellent value for money. Considering the quality and portion sizes, the prices at Bu Tafesh were very reasonable. I felt that I got more than my money's worth, and it added to the overall satisfaction of dining here.
In conclusion, Bu Tafesh offers a combination of great seafood choices, good service, and excellent...

Hammour was grilled finely in spices, delivering ultimate taste. We had for 2 a fish of 1,4 Kg, crispy kalamari rings, tabouleh and fish soup. All dishes are yamm, tasty and worth each dirham of its price.
