what i enjoyed most about the restaurant was the outdoor area, it was like taking a break while still viewing the pace of the city. 
The food was great, especially the mixed grill plate.

One of the best shishas in Abu Dhabi, the food is good and place has got some special atmosphere. The chairs are a little bit dirty, but I really love this place😁

A friend and I dined in. The staff was welcoming and helpful. My friend had ordered a dish, awhile ago and loved it, but it wasn't on the menu anymore. The server said, "The chef will make it for you, no problem." I asked about a dish that wasn't on the menu. The server said, "Come back next week and the chef will make it for you."
The food was delicious and big portions. The Moroccan tea was nicely done. The shisha was very nice. Even when the place became busy, we were still attended to.
We will come back again.

This place is a cheap place with good food ! The best thing in the restaurant is the appetizer part but regarding the main courses part it similar to any other lebanese restaurant.

A hidden gem in Abu Dhabi! If you are looking for a quick bite or a good meal this place serves amazing lebanese food. We ordered vine leaves, fattoush, cheese rolls, makanek and boneless grilled chicken. I have ordered grilled chicken several from this place and never had that good, tender, moist and well marinated chicken. The only restaurant I've been to in Abu Dhabi that serves authentic tanoor markook bread which is a must try! They also serve shisha and was also good! Service was fast and staff is very friendly. Overall a good priced with good quality lebanese food at Mono. I will try their daily dish next time i am around in the area.

Mono has special deals for lunch: soup & main dish for AED40. The potato soup was really nice, for the mains we had fish and meat & vegetables, food was also ok. Many people smoked shisha during lunch time - be aware of it.

This place is okay if you're not going to dine in.
It's a very small joint (I believe they've added more space recently which leaves me to wonder just how small this place was before) on a busy street, so parking isn't easy to find. The staff are .. a little distracted, I suppose. It's really hard to get their attention sometimes, even when the restaurant is pretty much empty.
They've got a little bit of an issue with flies and if you're a woman, you're in luck! Because then you've signed in for the wonderful experience of having at least 1 creepy middle-aged man staring you down as you try to enjoy an evening with friends.
Their shisha is excellent if you're into that, and it's reasonably priced compared to other places.
The first time, we ordered the cheese with meat manakish which were good, nothing to complain about that.
The second time, I ordered (online) the half boneless chicken. It wasn't the best I personally ever had, but it was still good.
However, I *must* say
1. They give you a nice portion for the half boneless chicken (some grill items on the menu are overpriced for what you get)
2. They're one of the few places that still make garlic sauce right. It actually tastes like proper garlic, so if you're into that mayonnaise-type garlic sauce maybe this isn't the place for you.

Overall, it's a cool restaurant. Personally, I'd rather pick my food up or have it delivered but you could give dining in a shot, maybe you'll like it there!

Value for money is quite good when it comes to mono as well as their speedy delivery. I like their lentil soup and my favorite salad is the avocado Rocca salad. When it comes to grills, it is just average.

On a quest to find the best mixed grills in town this was our place to order from on Saturday night. We ordered mixed grills and a hamoor grilled fillet. Portion sizes are decent, but there is no juiciness in the meat, it was all quite dry. Loved the sides, taheeni sauce was included unlike usual restaurants, 2 types of breads and the usual salads. The packaging was really neat, service was on time. Prices are standard. Their sandwiches and manaqish are great though!

This is one of the best Lebanese food restaurants in Abu Dhabi . Very clean, value for money and the food is very tasty with good portions. We daily eat here with friends; they offer tasty daily dishes as well as great sandwiches and shisha. Try their special large falafel sandwich in Lebanese bread - you will never regret. Have inside and outside dining. Most important, their service and staff are lovely; we always feel at home here. Thank you Hassan, Christina, Gina, Rose, Anwar, Christaline and Talaat for your great service, efficiency and warm welcome!

First time to actually visit the restaurant since usually we get take away. The restaurant as a whole is ok, clean, great food, friendly staff and quick to serve. Decor wise it's mediocre but the food is one of our top Lebanese restaurants in Abu Dhabi!! Went for Iftar today and they have a really good selection of everything salads, appetizers, fish, meat and chicken! It's a must even though there menu generally is a bit pricey when comparing it to its neighboring restaurants.

MONO has always been putting fresh and great food to their tables! the staff is very fast and responsive , always smiling to customers and distribute the tables between themselves in the best way. i have noticed they do remember their customers too which is quite rare these days.  

 they try to give 5 good choices of daily dishes which usually serves most people well.  
they must work on the outdoor area improvement though. it needs to look better. they should make use of its prime location in the capital to get people's attention. 

bon appetite. :)

Popped in for lunch with friends. Surprise to know the hidden restaurant in busy street. Unlike other Lebanese restaurant ,here we are welcomed politely and helped us to take our table.  Ordered Mixed grill and Kebbeh. Liked their presentation of food and freshness. I felt the food was very quality  from the way they cooked. Meat was grilled perfectly and that tends you to eat more. Perfect place to dine inn with family as well.

We have been ordering food from this place since the past 1 week for work.  Absolutely the most amazing menu.  Value for money.  Food arrives fresh and taste so good.  Would def recommend their Lentil soup.  I love their saj breads and their Manakeesh.  Love their packaging for Home delivery. 

Over all - Happy Customer

I have never had a meal or dish from
Mono that I didn't like. For the past 5 years they have been consistently great. Tasty food, friendly service, and really smooth Shisha. This is not a fancy place. It's a clean, classic, neighborhood place where you will be remembered and welcomed with a smile. Their kebab Istanbuli, charcoal-grilled chicken, and lamb chops are highly recommended.

Great caffe with great food, juices, and coffee's. This caffe is more preferable in winter time.

They have seats inside and outside of the caffe. Amazing and deliscious fatoush they make, the Saj and manaqeesh are simply perfect, there is always parking in the area.

The place is right opposite burjeel hospital and is quite hard to miss. The service was polite, courteous ands more than helpful. My questions about the items on the menu were answered to my satisfaction. The cold mezzeh was just that, cold and fresh. The flavors were awesome and I nearly managed to finish everything. :D

Ordered a spinach fatayer, great taste. A fajita sandwich, great taste, a salad that was well prepared and chilled.

I personally spoke to the manager and complimented him on the level of service. Had I known about this place so close to Lebanese flower, I would've never ventured there. The staff is rude, impolite and indifferent at Lebanese flower. As if they drive to please the rich only who show up in their big SUVs and create a jam.

If you've had a bad experience as well there, head to Mono. It'll really be worth it. Especially if you are into sheesha and great Turkish coffee.

Oh yeah, they offered a sweet dish to my wife since they had billed us for two coffees by mistake and served only one. Cards accepted.
