Culinary adventure awaits.

Ara is the new kid on the block that’s making waves with a menu that’s as diverse as your Spotify playlist. From Mediterranean delights to East Asian fare, it’s a culinary journey worth taking. The vibe is sleek, and the staff, especially Redwan, treat you like royalty. Seriously, if you’re not raving about the fried chicken or the semolina halva, I'm questioning your taste buds.

With presentations that could compete for an art exhibition, every dish is a feast for the eyes and the palate. The cocktails? Pure geniusβ€”if you love a good drink, Annabell has you covered. Just be ready for a bit of a wait during peak times; great things take time, right? But trust me, Ara will make you forget all about that with its spot-on service and killer food.
