Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Abu Dhabi.

Plate Snob compared 26 venues and selected 5. Start with 99 Sushi Bar for high-end sushi craftsmanship, COYA Abu Dhabi for excellent ceviche and anticuchos, Zuma Abu Dhabi for consistently strong sushi and robata and LPM Restaurant & Bar Abu Dhabi for refined French-Mediterranean cooking. This is a researched shortlist, not every restaurant carrying the same database tag.

A price ceiling should sharpen the shortlist, not lower the standard. We compared 26 open venues against the brief and kept 5 with genuine editorial research. The strongest researched starting points are 99 Sushi Bar for high-end sushi craftsmanship, COYA Abu Dhabi for excellent ceviche and anticuchos and Zuma Abu Dhabi for consistently strong sushi and robata. The cut is deliberately tight: Japanese Contemporary, Cantonese, Italian Contemporary and Steakhouse appear across Al Maryah Island, Corniche, Al Bateen and Saadiyat, but a database tag alone does not earn a recommendation. Factual directory records remain searchable elsewhere while this page stays focused on the tables Plate Snob can confidently discuss. Use the map to compare convenience, then check each profile for current prices, booking options and practical details. Menus, hours and availability move quickly in the UAE, so confirm time-sensitive information directly with the venue.
