Martabaan by Hemant Oberoi is a fine-dining Indian restaurant inside the Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental in Abu Dhabi, helmed by chef Hemant Oberoi, the first Indian chef inducted into the World Gourmet Club. The restaurant is open daily from around 12 pm to 10:30 pm for lunch and dinner.

Your voucher gets you a table for the Special Set Menu or the Royal Set Menu, each a four-course meal moving through soup, appetizers, a main course, and dessert. Dishes draw on Oberoi's take on Indian cuisine, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, such as kaboocha and coconut soup, murgh malai tikka, and lamb biryani, plated in a chic dining room designed around the restaurant's Indian heritage theme. Oberoi's cooking has been served to Margaret Thatcher, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama over his career, and the same recipes are on the menu here. Large windows along the dining room look out over the Arabian Gulf, giving you sea views to go with the meal.

The restaurant also runs a High Tea menu and a Tiffin Menu for guests who prefer a lighter sitting. Rayna Tours' local team handles your voucher booking, so any questions about your reservation go to a point of contact in the UAE.

Must see - the new place of Abu Dhabi

5/5

Wonderful trip. I highly recommend that you take this day trip to Abu Dhabi. Our tour guide Adeel and driver Faizullah were great hosts. We enjoyed Adeel's commentary on the history, and culture of UAE. His storytelling skills masterfully mixing the human dimension with facts and figures was informative and entertaining. The best part of the tour was the Palace - Qasr Watan - the main grand hall is actually mesmerizing - and you need to budget time to just stare at the craftsmanship of the building. All 5 rooms were a pleasure to visit. The Abu Dhabi mosque is also an amazing place to visit. If you just do Dubai and don't do this tour - you will of course get the glitz of Dubai - but Abu Dhabi is where you willl get a feel for Arab culture.

The Abu Dhabi full-day city tour was an exceptional experience, earning a well-deserved 5-star rating. The itinerary showcased the city's grandeur, blending modern marvels with cultural gems. The iconic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque left a lasting impression, radiating architectural brilliance. Exploring the opulent Emirates Palace and Corniche offered breathtaking views. The Louvre Abu Dhabi provided a cultural immersion with its diverse exhibits. The tour seamlessly navigated through landmarks like the Heritage Village and Presidential Palace, offering insights into the city's rich history. Accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, the day was filled with awe-inspiring moments, making it a truly remarkable excursion. Highly recommended.

Sheik Zayed Mosque and Emirates Palace

5/5

We chose Oceanair Travels for this Abu Dhabi tour from Dubai and seriously it was a fabulous day! Our tour guide, Ifan Khan was fantastic, professional and informative and provided little extra touches since from his heart, it is obvious the he loves his country. Forget about the useless tour of Abu Dhabi and choose this one. During our tour of Abu Dhabi a year ago, we were left outside taking photos of both venues and feeling extremely disappointed. So, when we returned this week, a small group of 6, I made sure that we chose this one special tour so we would actually experience the best of both these amazing interiors. You can't visit Abu Dhabi without entering the beautiful and serene Sheik Zayed Mosque. It is holy, and exquisite and our tour guide, Isfan Khan added to our experience by relating with love, the pillars of Islam, prayer time and translated the call to prayer while we visited. Isfan was funny, thoughtful and sincere during our entire day, but we commend him for having the intelligence to use his phone app and common sense to avoid a huge accident on the highway back to Abu Dhabi. He took a detour and headed back on the highway after noting traffic was at a standstill. Do this tour and no other!!!!! It is fantastic!
