The food is always good, fast delivery, I really love it! The only thing makes me rethink to order sometime is because of too much plastic packaging. Not all, but even for a burger it comes in a plastic container. I hope they use paper wrapping instead.

We ordered the Afghani curry, Qabili pallow, and US Angus beef kabob for 4 people sharing. They all tasted great especially the pallow which is a taste to remember. The raisins and carrots made it extra great. The kabob and the yoghurt with it were unforgettable. The B-B Basil drink is also refreshing. The amount of food was enough anx filling. The staff were very slightly unfriendly but were still helpful. Our server even suggested changing the side of the kabob as we had the 2 other plates with rice.

Very satisfied. Salmon was cooked very well and the broth tasted very good. Packaging of the broth should be a bit enhanced as a quarter of it leaked into the plastic bag. Besides that, food always fresh and tastes delicious.

Delicious food & huge portion sizes however the service was so slowwwwww and the restaurant wasn’t THAT busy. Wish we had pre ordered as we were late back to the office! It was a nice water view but unfortunately they don’t offer free parking.

She helped me so much to get my lost parking token although it wasn’t her problem and one of the staff lost it after I forgot it on the table and left.

I had to attend a meeting in Abu Dhabi which felt like the greatest effort!

After I felt like I could do with a good breakfast and after doing a Zomato search decided on Nolu.

The restaurant views are 👌. Service is excellent and the food is delicious.

Chose my 'go to' eggs Benedict and it did not disappoint.

Loved this place the service the location the food hard to point a thing they did wrong
It’s in al bandar and u can have the view of the canal if u grab a window seat
The interiors are neatly done loved it
The service was good we were attended to as soon as we entered.
Ordered French toast blue berry pancake and some coffee.
The food was delicious , very well presented and the quantity was huge.
The French toast was perfectly done with sides of fresh fruits and cream
The pancake was fluffy not too sweet and had right amount of fresh berries
A place worth visiting for sure

Nice ambience right next to al raha beach. Very well prepared food. It has a mix of American, middle eastern and continental dishes. Nolu's salad is really good, so are the barbeque platters of lamb and shrimp

Only negative - they take quite some time to prepare your food. Can be because they prepare everything from scratch so cant complain

Very delicious food, great food portions, nice ambience but costly. Did not expect to be served with one of the best burgers I've had in Abu Dhabi. Will come back on special occasions.

I find it quite hard to find a good burger place and so far, they have the best beef burger I have had in the UAE. They make it to the right level of doneness. I love how open the place is to the light and the service is always great! Very friendly servers and great healthy options too!

This place never disappoints me... ive tried their several dishes and they are always yumm.
This time I tried Lamb chops and as usual.... they were awesome. I had “Marjon’s favorite” juice which is basically mix of orange ginger coconut water turmeric and honey. Delicious and very healthy!

Super friendly staff! Very accommodating.
I asked for help picking out what to eat because im not a huge meat lover and the waitress kept checking up to see if we liked the food. Even though I am not a huge fan of meat, I took the risk and had the New Zealand kabab because I know their specialty is meat and I switched the rice to fries, it was really good. My friend had the chicken kabab which was also very good. The yoghurt however wasn’t very good I think it was the taste of the herbs they put. I will definitely be back to try different dishes :)

Had the business lunch. Good portion size, very good taste, excellent service. High quality ingredients, but the beef was a bit chewy. Still among my favorite places for lunch in AD.

Fabulous food with a few twists which you may not get anywhere else. Always delicious for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The chef has a quite strict regime - does not accommodate small changes like a different sauce for your Eggs Benedict. It is also quite expensive compared to a few of the joints around. That said, I am a regular for the food and the very nice service staff who always have a smile and friendly word for their guests.

Keeping it simple, Nolu’s is my favourite restaurant in Abu Dhabi. I love their Mantoo (order it every time) and tried all their grilled items (except the kufta) and all their sandwiches and pasta too! Not to forget the custom juice options at the juice bar (banana, milk, dates)

Such a great twist to all their food. Even the most western sounding dishes are just so different and flavourful. Not necessarily spicy just full of flavour. Tried pretty much all their kebabs and mains. Not a fan of the fish tacos but everything else is exceptional.

Had been to this place for dinner. As hyped this place stands up to its expectations. We were welcomed by really freindly staff. Our order was the ever famous chapoli kebab nd qabuli pulao, it was amazing. The meat of pulao was very tender nd well cooked. Chapoli kebab had a good blend of spices nd well cooked. Both the dishes were of good helping. For starters we had the mantoo dumplings, which is again a specialty in afghan cuisines. Basically dumplings filled with meet.

Overall it was aan amazing experience would love to visit this place again. Wanted to visit it for a long tym.
Cheers.

I had breakfast l, lunch and dinner here. All meals were fantastic and worth it every time.

The ambiance specially in the morning is warm and welcoming.

The French toast, shakshuka and pancakes all delicious.

Barley soup here is exceptional.

For lunch, afghan meat kebab with rice was irresistible.

What annoyed me was the flies during one breakfast dine in experience. Other than that our experience was a 5 star experience.

I am regular customer for Nolu's Al Bandar branch since 5 years. It's was my favorite restaurant in Abu-Dhabi till 2017. It's was one of the most consistent restaurants serving the same high quality and taste of the food. For the price they charge that was almost acceptable, but recently it was up and down for the quality and portion as well, when you are regular customer you can tell the changes happened and I always mention any issue to the manager there hoping things get better for next time. But seems they can do nothing.

Breakfast is still amazing and one of the best. As well as other menu types. Hoping the quality of the food get like before also the portion.

We sat outdoor. Weather and breeze were perfect. The seating is nice. I ordered the lamb shank lawand and my husband ordered the chapli kebob. Both were delicious. My only note to the chef is that the sauce the lamb shank lawand was cooked in was a little too salty. Our friends ordered the potato bolani and it was enjoyed by all! Very delicious.

Everything about this restaurant is great - the service, atmosphere and food are delicious - (though a bit pricy for the portion size). Best Afghani food, with a lot of other variety (such as healthy vegan superfood bowls), as well.

Great place to be , the food is amazing and the Afghani food is the best in town. It's Athuntic Afghani food.

The breakfast is the best. Although I will might of come back for one dish in afternoon or dinner time ( Kabuli Palaw).

Desserts are yummy, but once again ( Asian Pancakes sorry to say is thick and not fluffy ).

My Review will always be Cost compared to Quality it's little bit up higher than average , little bit overpriced I believe.

Food here is great - I have been here for lunch and dinner and loved both meals. The service is fantastic as well - very time I go the waiters are lovely and very attentive.

Don't come for the coffee though - it's terrible. Super weak because they use large mugs with only one shot of coffee which needs at least two. If you ask for the coffee not to be weak they charge you extra. They'd be better off using a normal latte glass with one shot of coffee.

Otherwise lovely place for a meal!

Cozy,Organic,Healthy. It's a mixture of organic and afghani food. I ordered the fish tacos it was really tasty and delicious. They're very innovative with their salads and they are very tasty. Delicious cheesecake and fondue but they're tiramisu isn't, they're seems to be more water then coffee.

I really liked this place alot,I tried the qabali pallow and it was amazing ,the rice is one of the best I've ever tried,I also ordered breadless burger ,which is amazing Patty with really good touch of mustard,but instead of bread it's rolled with lettuce, it's a very good idea,one of the best restaurants.

This could easily be my favorite restaurant in Abu Dhabi. Afghani dishes are delicious. I am not normally a salads kind of guy, but I do crave Nolu's. Burgers are tasty and juicy enough for me. Out of the desserts, cheesecake is my favorite. I would give it 5 out of 5 but I decided to give 4.5 because of pricing.

A real nice restaurant at Al Raha Beach, AUH. The decor is Beautifully done. The staff was nice and friendly. We ordered the Chapli Kebab with brown rice, Afghani Curry with brown rice and Chicken Kebab with brown rice and chocolate fondant for dessert. Service was a bit slow, guess that's because of a full house. The food was delicious! Will certainly visit again!

السلطات افضل مايميز المطعم خاصة سلطة نلوز
البرج جيد لكن نوع الخبز اقل من المستوى المطلوب

I adore Nolu's. It truly is one of the few places in Abu Dhabi that serves high quality, healthy and yummy food at a good price. You can't go wrong with the borani banjon, aushak dumplings and superfood bowl. The cheesecake is also so so good. I really appreciate the consistency of quality and taste since Nolu's first opened.

I would like to point out, however, that the service is not always fantastic. I often find myself having to wait up to 15 minutes to flag a waiter down to get my bill or order something else. Because the lack of attentiveness happens on most of my visits, I can't give Nolu's a 5/5.
