Oléa Mediterranean Restaurant

I was really surprised by the quality and varieties of food they have in the buffet! I couldn't stop eating 😂. I loved the pastry, even they put clove almost everywhere😁. Unfortunately I didn't take a lot of pics of the food cause every time I put it on the table it didn't last long lol. Lunch options were few but portions weren't small and the food was fresh and good too. All the personnel are very helpful and friendly, and the service is good too. They always ask you if you need something else and do the best for you. Highly recommended!

An amazing 5 star hotel We booked for one night as we were celebrating our anniversary. We had dinner at Olea restaurant as part of our half board package (seafood night) and honestly the staff and the food were spectacular. I have been to so many restaurants in so many hotels in Dubai and AD but the quality of food and the staff made Olea one of the best restaurants we have been to. The breakfast buffet was wonderful and I loved that they gave us a menu and we can choose what we want from it. We were served by good luck and he was great. Thank you for the amazing stay and we will definitely come back in the future.

This must be the best hotel breakfast in the UAE. The quality of food and the selection is outstanding. In particular, egg options and the bakery. All fruit are fresh and tasty. Really really impressed - highly recommended.

Great breakfast buffet ! The coffee could be a bit better but the food is great. Fruits taste like fruits unlike other places in the UAE and their pastries are amazing The best part is that breakfast is serve till 1 pm! Definitely have brunch there :)

There are so many fantastic things to write about St Regis Saadiyat Hotel (so I will do a review seperately) but the buffet breakfast at this restaurant has to be our favouritist thing! There is something for everyone. The pastry section is unbelievable! Food is perfection... fruit are amazing..... the coffee is great! I'm addicted to the Asian food station and that freshly squeezed watermelon juice. A huge THANK YOU to Kyle, Shan and Mirza for taking such good care of us. Nothing to too much trouble... even the special pot of masala tea you make for us every morning. Also special mention to Dea, Bina, Wael and Asadbek for the great service.

We went for dinner buffet on Friday for the Olea's seafood night. One of the best meals we have had in Abu Dhabi. Abundance of seafood with fresh oysters, great selection of meats, fantastic desert. Both me and my husband were so impressed by the service and quality of food. Going back again on Saturday with friends as we don't want to miss out of the last weekend of the special menu. Very impressed by Olea! Also really enjoyed the service by Ishwari and Gracia.

“Abundance” is the first word that comes to mind when thinking of Olea 🥰 We were lucky to have breakfast included as a benefit with our Marriott membership, and enjoyed delicious variety of food options during three beautiful days of our stay. There is definitely something for everyone! Fresh juice station, omelettes, eggs Benedict, gourmet coffees, phenomenal Mediterranean station, tropical fruit, fantastic dessert station with chocolate fountain - the list goes on 😋 They even had my favorite chicken liver. But the Real Gems of this restaurant that made us feel so special and valued are amazing employees. Huge THANK YOU to Rizal and Hamza for taking good care of us, Hasan from Mediterranean station who made sure we are only getting out-of-the-oven treats and even surprised us with freshly made falafel at our table (which was delicious!) And now my favorite story ❤️ At our first night at the hotel, as we were walking after dinner in Sontaya (which was another Fantastic experience, check out my review for them) and passing near Olea, we saw a beautiful dessert station through large windows and came in to just admire its perfection. Olea’s manager, ANURAG, greeted us at the entrance and we started chatting. I explained that we already had dinner but were just fascinated with fabulous presentation of the sweets, and Anurag kindly invited us to try some on the house!!! How thoughtful, kind and caring! He introduced us to his favorite desserts, provided recommendations, seated us at a beautiful table - we felt like being his Family (see pics for our selections 🥰) This was a PRICELESS EXPERIENCE that we will remember forever. THANK YOU, ANURAG. Dear Fellow Traveler, thank you for reading all the way through this long review, I hope it was helpful :) if you have questions about the restaurant or hotel, want to see more photos and videos or just want to say Hi, feel free to reach out to my Insta @daria.newyork ❤️ Cheers to good people, magnificent places and unique experiences!

I just loved this place. I’d visited it in winters so a late review (obviously) but authentic one. They have a huge set up for sitting and for buffer. Once you’re sitting there the feel you’ll get will be a Royal one because the ambiance is like that. Staff is extra ordinary professional and quick. Food,drinks, live music you name it, everything is top class. A must visit buffer place in abu dhabi with your family.
