This hidden Portuguese gem is a great place to get some traditional pastel de nata and other treats. The savoury snacks are also worth a try!
The owner is so proud of his brazilian cheesebread recipe (pão de queijo), it is really delicious. You must also try the Pastel de Frango com Queijo (fried pastry with chicken and cheese filling) - its fresh and crispy. For drinking: Guaraná (soft drink made from amazonian fruit). Great place!
Good restaurant nice deseart and
the owner is good and generous

Oh what a gem we discovered!
Al Ulya is definitely an excellent destination for Portuguese food. The overall experience was definitely good although there are a few areas that need attention.
First of all the food. I must confess I know the Portuguese cuisine well. And hence I may well have been a bit too particular. The bacalhau was excellent; just the way my wife cooks it. The Francesinha com fries were above average. We found the taste a bit too sharp. The bitoque was really above par. The steak was lean and well seasoned. The fries were excellent.
I was a bit dissapointed with the pastéis. They were good but not as good as the ones I am familiar with.
The service is a bit clunky. There is lot of opportunity to improve the service. For the size of the restaurant and pax, the owner / manager should make an attempt to engage with the guests. Specially given the unique cuisine.
Having said that, this is a must visit spot for Portuguese food. The prices seemed a bit on a higher sidem The restaurant provides a good value proposition for overall experience of food, service and ambience.
A must visit place for exploring different kinds of Portuguese desserts and steaks!!!! Really loved their tiramisu, for 15 dhs it was worth every penny. Loved the hospitality of the owner and his recommendations. Also do try the Nattas (Egg Tart) and that coconut dessert. Everything was perfect!!!!
The food is beyond delicious ! They do require a few more staff because when it gets busy, they tend to a bit slow.

Wanna have some 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗲 Food ?? Here is the place for you in Abu Dhabi - Al Ulya Portuguese Flavours. As it was my first time they recommended to have Bitoque.
.
Bitoque is a traditional Portuguese dish which consists of a lean fried or grilled steak, that is usually accompanied by fries, rice, various salads and topped with an egg. This recipe has its origin in Beira’s, Portugal.

Amazing place, with a cozy environment. A hidden gem in Abu Dhabi. I believe this place is not known to the public yet.
.

Quiet place, food is nice, steak, fish, and pasta. Dessert is also nice but a bit too sweet but if you drink it with coffee you will be fine. Thanks for having us! Definitely try the nata / custard pie 🥧
If you're looking for authentic Portuguese food - you'll find it here. It's like a hidden gem in the city, with a fantastic bakery section. Freshly baked treats. And I can vouch for that, a variety of treats to satisfy a sweet tooth.
Great mains as well, with fries that taste home-made, lovely. I especially love their cane sugar juice, bacalhau gomes de sa (codfish, potatoes, eggs, olives) and the creamy mushroom dish. Wasn't a big fan of the açorda de camarao (hollowed bread, filled w a mix of shrimp and bread). The texture put me off, but the flavour was alright. Ambience was good, and they seem to attract some regulars. Overall, lovely experience and would recommend for anyone keen for some Portuguese flavour.
A must when visiting Abu Dhabi.
The main dishes are cooked in the typical Portuguese style. The portions are just right.
All codfish dishes (bacalhau) that I tried are simply amazing. For a quick bite, I always get the steak sandwich (prego em pão) which is perfect with a little mustard.
The sweets are also like the real stuff that you can get in Portugal. I can’t decide for a favourite one since they do not disappoint at all. The custard tart (pastel de nata) is probably the best in the whole UAE.
Highly recommended.
مطعم برتغالي يقدم الاكل والحلويات اللذيذة مع خدمة جيدة ومكان نظيف ومرتب .. عندهم الناتا لذيذة والترميسو اكثر من رائعة
(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) مكان لطيف للغاية مع مزيج من نكهات البرتغال والبرازيل.
من الممكن أن تفوت خبز الجبن والأرز مع الفاصوليا وكذلك تناول أفضل الحلويات البرتغالية ، مثل Pastel de nata و quindim. كان لديهم أيضًا معجنات فرنسية مثل أوراق الإكلير وأوراق الميل.
في زيارتي الأولى ، تناولت خبز الجبن وكوينديم وسمك القد في جوميز دي سا وكان الثلاثة جميعًا رائعين!
أعتقد أن الأسعار عادلة جدًا أيضًا.

Local super agradável com uma mistura dos sabores de Portugal e Brasil.
É possível matar as saudades de pão de queijo e arroz com feijão como comer os melhores doces portugueses, como pastel de nata e quindim. Eles também tinham doces franceses como éclair e mil folhas.
Na minha primeira visita, comi pão de queijo, quindim e o bacalhau à Gomes de Sá e os três estavam maravilhosos!
Considero os valores bem justos também.
(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) مقهى / مخبز فريد للغاية. يمكنك معرفة أنه تم الاعتناء به جيدًا. طلبي الأول كان تارت البقان وكان ممتازًا بصدق. عاد مؤخرًا وحصل على تارت آخر وما بدا أنه "كعكة كسولة" وكان رائعًا :)
الجانب السلبي الوحيد هو الموقع. لا توجد مواقف للسيارات في الخارج.

Very unique cafe/bakery. You could tell it’s well taken care of. My very first order was a pecan tart and it was honestly perfect. Recently went back got another tart and what looked like “lazy cake” and it was superb :)
The only downside is the location; no parkings right outside.

(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) كانت تجربة رائعة ... أنا شخصياً لم أفكر أبداً في حياتي بتجربة المطبخ البرتغالي ... أوصى لي بذلك أستاذي لذلك ذهبنا وجربناه ...
القائمة مثيرة للاهتمام لحقيقة أنك لا تعرف من أين تبدأ وماذا تختار.
أعرف أن سمك القد هو غذاء أساسي في المطبخ البرتغالي ، لكني لست من محبي هذه السمكة ، لذلك اخترنا 1 ستوغانوف من اللحم البقري مع البطاطا المقلية والأرز جنبًا إلى جنب مع paõ de queijo ، إنه نوع من خبز الجبن الجيد جدًا. كان حجم الجزء كافياً لإطعام 2.
المكان صغير لذا قد لا تجد لك مقعدًا عندما يكون مشغولاً.
إجمالي 10/10 💯

Was a great experience... i personally never in my life thought of trying the portuguese cuisine... it was recommended to me by my professor so we went and tried it out...
The menu is interesting to the fact you dont know where to start and what to choose.
I know codfish is a staple in portuguese cuisine but im not a fan of this fish so we picked 1 beef stoganoff with fries and rice on side with paõ de queijo its some sort of a cheese bread that is soooo good. The portion size was enough to feed 2.
The place is small so you might not find you a seat when its busy.
Overall 10/10 💯
(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) البرازيلي الذي يفتقد Pastel de Feira مع Sugar Cane ، أوصي بشدة بهذا المطعم.
كل شيء لذيذ ، يمكنك أن تجد العديد من النكهات البرازيلية.

Brasileiro que sente falta de um Pastel de Feira com Caldo de Cana, super recomendo esse restaurante.
Tudo uma delícia, encontra vários sabores brasileiros.
(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) يعجبني هذا المطعم حقًا ، فالعجين المعجنات دائمًا ما يكون جافًا ومقرمشًا ومحشوًا جيدًا دائمًا.

Gosto bastante desse restaurante, o a massa do pastel é sempre sequinho e crocante e sempre bem recheados.
(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) ديكور جميل وفريق عمل ودود وقهوة لذيذة.
تأكد من تناول فطيرة "باستيل دي ناتا" (فطيرة الكسترد) عندما تذهب إلى هناك.
تميل بعض أنواع الكعك إلى أن تكون شديدة الحلاوة ، وستستفيد من تقليل السكر (حوالي 20٪ أو أكثر).
(التعليق الأصلي)
Lovely decoration, friendly staff and delicious coffee.
Make sure you grab your "pastel de nata" (custard pie) when you go there.
Some cakes tend to be too sweet, they would profit from a reduction of sugar (around 20% or even more).
