Soraya launches at Yas Mall

Soraya, the newest culinary gem at Yas Mall, has officially opened, offering a unique dining experience that showcases Persian-inspired cuisine in an exquisite greenhouse setting. As the inaugural restaurant from 971 Hospitality—the acclaimed team behind London’s celebrated Pachamama Group—Soraya introduces a fresh and exciting Abu Dhabi-born dining concept.

 

Founded by Iskandarbek Narzibekov, led by Brand Director Yara Malkova and designed by Project-Art Director Lunara Bramley-Fenton, known for their successes with zēphyr and Pachamama London, Soraya combines their expertise to create a distinctive blend of tradition and modernity. 

 

The restaurant’s design and menu are a celebration of Persian culture, harmoniously integrating classic elements with contemporary influences.

Guests can enjoy beloved dishes like Mast O Khair, Lamb Koobideh, Chicken Joujeh, and Ghaymeh Bademjan, alongside innovative creations such as the Persian Caesar, Cheese Fatayer, and Giant Halva Profiteroles.

The restaurant’s skewers of marinated meats and vegetables are expertly prepared, offering a delightful smoky aroma and tender texture that transports diners straight to the heart of Tehran. Each bite promises a remarkable experience, satisfying to even the most discerning palates.

 

At Soraya, the beverage selection is designed with the same dedication to excellence, offering a refined array of non-alcoholic options that perfectly complement the Persian-inspired flavors. The menu features a sophisticated range of mocktails, including the traditional Doogh and the refreshing Sharbat, as well as a variety of freshly squeezed juices.
