Local tip
A daytime visit offers the restaurant's buffet and à la carte formats, while dinner focuses on steakhouse dining.

The Foundry is a steakhouse and all-day dining restaurant on Al Meena Street in Al Zahiyah, Abu Dhabi. Its character changes with the day, offering a more open setting for breakfast and lunch before becoming a polished, intimate steakhouse in the evening.

The menu centres on carefully sourced beef from international suppliers, with cuts including tenderloin, sirloin, rib-eye, Porterhouse, T-bone and Tomahawk. Steaks can be paired with a selection of sides and richer accompaniments, giving diners scope to keep a meal straightforward or make it more indulgent. The restaurant also serves buffet and à la carte meals during the daytime, making it suitable for a range of dining occasions beyond dinner.

The interior combines burnished copper details with velvet, creating a warm, contemporary setting that feels suited to both relaxed meals and more formal occasions. A show kitchen and chef stations add movement to the room, while the drinks offering includes premium selections and cocktails prepared by mixologists. The overall atmosphere is designed to move between lively and celebratory during busier occasions and more discreet for intimate meals or business lunches.

The Foundry has spaces for group occasions as well as quieter dining, so the restaurant can work for a gathering, a business meeting or a meal for two. Its daytime format makes it a practical choice for breakfast or lunch, while the evening menu places greater emphasis on steakhouse dining and the theatre of the kitchen.

Located within the Al Zahiyah area, the restaurant is a convenient option for diners looking for a dedicated steakhouse setting with several meal formats under one roof. Reservations are available through the venue, and the restaurant team can provide the most current information about menus, seating and special arrangements.
