Envision this – Glistening glass vitrines filled with aged sakes, Japanese master chefs preparing your favourite classics to the tunes of soothing jazz and an assemblage of beverage destinations for all things muddled, spritzed and vintage.
Welcome to 99 Sushi Bar, where haute Japanese cuisine meets avant-garde flair.
Occupying the grand Four Seasons Abu Dhabi, this is the first 99 Sushi Bar to make its debut outside of Spain. Reflecting the same authentic preparations, Oriental accents and sharing-style presentation, 99 Sushi Bar is a chic dining sanctuary. For a taste of the Orient and loved by guests and food critics alike, the menu stays innovative and driven by seasonal produce.
Guests enter via a large wooden door to be greeted by the signature 99 Sushi Bar fish sculpture, found in all of its restaurants and bespoke to each. The venue’s contemporary design infuses a variety of textures and colours; from gold mosaic wall coverings to red velvet chairs and intricate Spanish floor tiles as a nod to the brand’s heritage.
From service to food and decor, the restaurant’s attention to detail is second to none. Put simply, this is one of the best meals you’ll have in Abu Dhabi.
