About Zeera by Buddha-Bar
Modern Indian cooking on The Pier at Yas Bay Waterfront, open from 2pm to midnight every day. Sharing plates carry global influences against a tandoor grill worked in an open kitchen, and the cocktail list is built around Indian flavours rather than bolted on. At 4.8 across roughly 3,075 reviews this is the highest-rated venue in the Buddha-Bar group by a clear margin, and it has taken Best Indian Restaurant awards repeatedly between 2022 and 2025. The waterfront terrace faces the marina. Private dining handles groups, and reservations run through the venue's own booking page. Spend sits in the $$$ band, dress is smart casual, and the audience mixes Abu Dhabi residents, Gulf visitors and the expatriate crowd Yas Island draws, mostly couples and younger professionals.
