Yas Island developer Miral has announced that Paradiso, Hunter & Barrel, Akiba Dori and The Lighthouse have joined the new F&B line-up at Yas Bay’s Waterfront.

The new restaurants will be located at the soon-to-open pier set within the Yas Bay Waterfront, which will house 20 F&B brands and five leisure and entertainment attractions.

Clement Bontemps, executive director of Asset Management, Miral, said: “We are excited to announce our partnership with these exceptional brands and hospitality companies. Each concept brings a unique flavour and experience to Abu Dhabi and Yas Island, and they are the perfect complement to the growing and diverse offering you will find at Yas Bay’s waterfront- set to be the perfect destination for culinary exploration on Yas Island.”

Originating in Cannes, Paradiso is a globally renowned Mediterranean restaurant helmed by Nicole Rubi, the woman behind La Petite Maison and Michelin star chef Pierre Gagnaire, and is brought to the region by Barrière Group.

Hunter and Barrel is an award-winning high-end casual dining restaurant and lounge concept born in Australia while street-food concept, Akiba Dori, will offer Japanese favorites and house the first Tokyo-style Neapolitan Pizzeria in Abu Dhabi.

A homegrown restaurant brand, The Lighthouse includes a retail gifting store, catering service, a podcast, and an event activation element that sits at the heart of its experiential ethos. 

The breakfast, lunch and dinner menus will boast a fresh interpretation of Mediterranean-inspired soul food classics and pastries, in addition to new dishes exclusive to this location.

Miral recently announced several world-class brands that will be situated within the pier on Yas Bay’s Waterfront, including Siddharta Lounge, Bushra, Asia Asia, Zeera, The Central, Lock, Stock & Barrel, and La Carnita.

The last two units are being held in reserve for one of a kind concepts, Miral said in a statement.

Yas Bay will feature three distinct areas – The Waterfront, Residences at Yas Bay, and Yas Creative Hub, across 14 million square feet.

Yas Bay Waterfront is part of Miral’s AED4 billion investment in the overall AED12 billion masterplan of Yas Bay. Once complete, Yas Bay is set to attract 15,000 future residents and over 10,000 business professionals.
