the bistro

a nice place in the city for a quick family dine in, really enjoyed the evening, thestaffwas courteous and also offered a birthday cake for my son. though not much options but still overall a great experience.

went there multiple times with my family for friday brunch , food is very good , atmosphere is excellent and children friendly staffservice not the same every time  sometimes up to the level and sometimes become lost but in general it is ok

the good food combined with the nicestaffand the amazing ambiance really impressed me.
it was one of the greatest buffet i've went in abu dhabi.
good variety, a lot of cuisines to try from, constantly refilling and great desert. i think all of us are looking for this.

we had been here for midweek brunch on our anniversary. we had made reservations beforehand and mentioned as vegetarians specifically.
the buffet spread is good for a non vegetarian, especially given the low price.
thestaffwas extremely friendly and very attentive to us. i would rate the food at 4/5.
they prepared us extra dishes apart from the buffet as there was only one veg options.
not much dessert options compared to other restaurants, but umm ali and sticky pudding was delicious.
would definitely recommend this place for a quiet and enjoyable dinner.

this was a big disappointment. was here for a business lunch. location and ambience were very good. the spread/options on buffet were very limited. they tried to keep a mix of different cuisine but ended up not having enough of any. specially if you have a buffet and only serve 1-2 main course dishes and 1 rice dish is poor. some of the starters like pakora, spicy patato , fish were ok. luckily the desserts were a saviour specially chocolate pudding.staffwere helpful and kind. having said, the cost is comparatively cheaper than other similar places.

this is the second time in a week period we visit bistrow restuarant over a thursday night brunch for a very simple reason , as this place is full with customer orientedstaffthat pamper you from the time you enter the place till you pay your bill ! we were overwhelmed with the sincere service of sankat and florence as both were doing their best to make us feel comfortable , furthermore the seafood night is outstanding and mouthwatering . this is the best thursday night buffet by all means and a place that need to be visited so often ...

we tried the bistro restaurant for breakfast buffet; the ambiance is pleasant.staffare very friendly and attentive. food variety was very good; it's an experience that is worth the value of money, and is definitely worth another visit.

went to bistro for a christmas day brunch. we arrived early than expected 🙈🙈 and yetstaffwere very much welcoming. service is quick and on point despite that they are on a full swing with guest arriving from time to time.

our drinks are never empty 😊.

though for a time we had a small problem with the seating arrangement as i have clearly requested for a couch seat. but the supervisor is kind enough to come to our table and has sincerely explain and apologize for the miscommunication during the booking.

they do have a good selection of food. turkey with all the trimmings, mini steak, oyster, crab legs, siomai, pizza, asian wok noodles, veg salad. they even have a live cooking pasta, a small table of cheese choices, and a shawarma.

their cakes and sweets are tasty i love their coconut shaker/shots (???)...and the braised beef are to die for its melt in your.😍😍

kids were entertained with a face painting and santa's visit which is plus! ambience is definitely christmassy and what it makes better is the 20% discount i get 😁😁.

all in all with the price of 149++ for a group of 10 people is totally worth it.

midweek's night brunch is how they called their dinner buffet which happens to fall on tuesday. marketing gimmick, yes but it works. don't expect vast spread of buffet but it just enough to fill our tummy. arabic appetizer done great, need some work on the seafood and cold station. had a lovely beans and tomato soup which tasted similar with chili con carne. tried the thai beef curry which tasted like indonesian rendang and the roast beef was excellent as it doesn't have the strong aroma it usually does. best chocolate pudding, the rest of desserts are okay.staffare friendly but not intrusive. the decor is simple yet attractive, evoke homey feeling.

one of the first few places i tried this ramadan. and oh my god!! i mean thank god !! it was a good one. i had already received threats from  my frnd that if this is a bad one, she wont join me for iftar ever any further. but this place saved me. the parking, ambience, decoration, everything was very nice. coming to the food, we were soooo shocked with the salad variety i mean, we thought ramadan is all abt business and most ppl are on profit by putting only a limited no. of varieties. well this place meant quality and absolute quality in every way possible. the salad bar was massive. the biryani , shwarma , grills, prawns , kebbe, etc etc etc. i dont even remember the variety of food now, there were soo many. and we were not tired at all eating it, since we were all fasting. and the ambience was perfect. thestaffwas sooo friendly. coming to the drinks and the sweets omg!! again.. sooo many variety. i just couldnt stop. kept on hogging and hogging and hogging. haha!! that day i didnt even have my sehri because i had that much of food at bistro. loved it !! absolutely loved it!! it will be my first destination next ramadan for sure. i havent tried the friday brunch but i trust it will be as amazing as ramadan iftar was. :)

while staying at courtyard by marriott in abu dhabi this was the breakfast venue. i can't complain about anything, thestaffwas very attentive and christine was a lovely hostess! the buffet selection is incredible and has a wide variety of choices. this was by far my favourite outlet in the hotel!

small but fun.

the brunch here at bistro in the courtyard marriott is a good one albeit it a bit smaller than the other brunch around. don't let that stop you though. the food is delicious and thestaffare lovely. there is a pasta station, raw bar, bread bar, salads and sushi along with meats, curries and asian dishes. the place is kid friendly so don't expect loud music, instead expect families and a quieter time.

the deserts are especially great.

the food is tasty, well prepared and presented... pop along and try a quieter, more laid back brunch.

love...love...love the friday brunch here! thestaffare wonderful. menu variety and portion offered is just perfect. the space and the ambience is classy and unpretentious. kids entertainment area also available. my most favourite brunch spot eva!

the food and the ambiance were perfect. overall experience was very satisfying.staffare very.................,

dad and i were planning for a friday brunch for the past few days and concluded that we dine here. plus, it's the birthday of my boyfriend.

so, it happens to be eid brunch, therefore most of the food were indian and arabic. there were breads, different salads, arabic appetizers, beef kababs, chicken tikka, grilled shrimp, biryani, live shawarma station, manakish, lasagna, mashed potato, chicken tikka, fried noodles, prawn crackers, thai curry, braised beef - somehow like osso bucco or mechado (for filipinos), and of course, dessert. i wasn't able to take photos of the main courses but the desserts looked so fine! there were a few choices of cakes, most of them were arabic sweets, there were choices of sliced fruits, and my most favorite will be the chocolate fondue. ❤️ arabic sweets were good too.

had about 5 or 6 plates only due to the limited choices of food due to the type of cuisines, but to be honest, we enjoyed.

thestaffwere accommodating and friendly, ambiance is relaxing, people started to come in by 130pm to 2pm while we were there since 1230pm, and food on display was nicely prepared.
