مطعم بيت المنسف ابو ظبي / bait al mansaf restaurant Abu Dhabi

Bait Al Mansaf is a Jordanian restaurant on Sidon Street in Hadbat Al Za’faranah, Abu Dhabi, focused on the rich, familiar flavours of Jordanian cuisine. Its menu also includes Palestinian dishes, creating a regional selection built around rice, meat, jameed, vegetables, bread, salads and sweet treats.

Mansaf is the central theme. It appears in several serving styles, including individual cups, traditional meal portions and larger trays designed for sharing. Lamb and chicken versions are available, along with variations featuring kebbeh, shredded bread and other combinations. The menu also presents mansaf in less traditional formats, such as a sandwich and a sushi-style interpretation, while keeping the dish at the centre of the restaurant’s identity.

For diners looking beyond the signature dish, the kitchen offers a broad range of Levantine and Palestinian comfort food. Choices include maklouba, meat maqloubeh, Palestinian musakhan, molokhia with chicken, Palestinian-style qidreh and shushbarak served with jameed. Kebbeh, vine-leaf fatteh, lentil soup and rashouf soup add further variety, while salads include tabbouleh, fattoush and rocca. These options make the menu suitable for a meal built around one main dish or a table filled with several regional plates.

The menu is arranged for different types of orders. Single portions and cup-sized servings offer a practical way to sample the cooking, while family trays and larger mansaf meals are intended for shared dining. Side choices include rice, saj bread, almonds, extra jameed, kebbeh and additional portions of meat or chicken. This range allows a meal to be kept simple or expanded for a gathering.

Drinks include ayran, tamarind, orange juice, soft drinks and water. Dessert options include two styles of kunafa and basbousa, giving meals a distinctly Levantine finish. The restaurant also prepares food for delivery, so its menu works for both direct visits and meals arranged at home or elsewhere. Bait Al Mansaf suits diners looking for Jordanian and Palestinian specialities, especially those interested in exploring mansaf in both classic and contemporary presentations.
