Beautiful place in a historic location. Staff members are rated top best in the hospitality industry, very attentive, knowledgeable and warm welcoming. The manager Ali, is among the best managers I’ve met. His attention to details and hospitality can’t be expressed with simple words. I haven’t seen someone knows the every aspect of the operation as Omar. If you ask him for a cup of coffee, you will be asked 3 specific and strategic questions to deliver the perfect cup of coffee that will make your day. The A La Cart menu is vibrant and quality is consistently excellent with fresh ingredients. A trio musicians of Oud, Violin, and Qanun live performance, sets you in a cosy and pleasant out door mood, surrounded with historic, local culture and native nature. I Highly recommend the desert selection while enjoying the perfectly brewed coffee. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Zoi Cafe Qattara in the Michelin Guide with stars. Highly recommended.

Beautiful atmosphere and the decor was stunning. The vibes were so chill I managed to get some work done while feeling all aesthetic 😌 The staff were so sweet and made the atmosphere even better and more welcoming <33 As for the food, chocolate caramel tart was soo good and the latte was so pretty I loved ittt

Breakfast at Zoi Cafe was an absolute delight! The waiting line moved quickly which was a great start to the experience. The food was perfect - a testament to the rich traditional Emarati cuisine. But what truly set the experience apart was the incredible atmosphere and the friendly, kind staff. They truly made it a memorable visit. Highly recommend Zoi Cafe for a fantastic meal and a wonderful time!

And a special shout-out to the manager, Ali, who ensured our experience was top-notch. His attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction truly made a difference. Thank you, Ali, for making our visit to Zoi Cafe extra special!
They have good refreshments. Burgers and Sandwiches Wraps, very reasonable prices and delicious for sure. Customize your sandwich as you wanted. The cafeteria is very good and the food here is very delicious and very reasonable in price. Located on the road side of defense street and back side is the school gate. They are getting very good crowd here. Overall taste of the food is best based on the pricing. Recommend visiting and try yourself once.
Good place to get food for a reasonable price. The staff is friendly.
Zoi is a beautiful restaurant with a lovely ambience but the experience stops at that. The food we ordered was average and service was poor. The steaks lacked seasoning while the truffle risotto was the only other dish we enjoyed. The servers were confused amongst each other about the table and orders. Would recommend visiting Zoi for breakfast and their beverages instead.

No.1 in food quality, taste, packaging, and presentation.

It's worth the price... the place outside the restaurant just reeks with a bad smell from the sewage around.

The worst tea I had from Tea Break was in the tourist club area!
1 cup tea = 3/4 water + 1/4 sugar + a pinch of tea powder and a drop of milk!
All the other Tea Break branches in Abu Dhabi are good.

Simply outstanding experience. The location is amazing , as it is in the heart of historic building. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, especially the manager Ali who recommended great food and drinks for us . simply delicious!!! Sitting outdoors and enjoying the weather added more magic to the experience. Highly recommended, and certainly will go there again during my next visit to Al Ain .
Great chilli paratha

House of tea serves sandwiches that are served quickly at affordable prices.
Very bad experience. I ordered simple food items. I waited until 1 hour bt they didn’t order. When I call them they still lying that wait 2 minutes more bt still 30 minutes no one came. So don’t order from them one of worst experiences with this restaurant
It’s my type of breakfast place quick sandwiches that deliver the needs

Very friendly staff. Beautiful interior design as well. The açai bowls are beautifully served. One thing I wish was different was the kind of açai they use. It was watery and tasted like it melted then refrozen and served. They should probably switch suppliers to a better quality açai like Açai Superfood or something similar that is served in other cafes.
Tea staff not good every time angry
Cheap price tasty food friendly people most humble people best place to eat

Their service is super bad and not stable AT ALL, I usually order from them for delivery, sometimes karak sometimes food, and in the cases I order karak in, they usually don’t allow an order of a small karak since it’s for 2 dirhams only, and so I’m forced to order the medium karak even if I’m not drinking it all, and that’s okay, but today, I call them to order the usual medium karak, and they say that I can’t order only that anymore, and I have to reach 10 dirhams at least, yeah maybe that’s logical if I was far away and if delivery will take the employee’s time, but not when I live 2 steps from their shop. And what do they say when I tell them so, they say ONLY because I live nearby (which is the building g right next to them) they could make it an 8 dirham minimum, meaning I’ll have to buy 2 medium karak, even tho it’s so obvious I’m 1 person, so how should I drink 2-3 times my drinking portion. So even tho they have the only karak I drink, I can’t support them on such dumb rules. Which btw wasn’t even mentioned the last time I ordered, about 1-2 weeks ago. And they claim this was an old rule they never mentioned to me and that’s it.

Update: I ended up ordering the 2 medium karak cuz my brother came and he wanted karak too, but guess what, it was burnt, like the milk had the burned taste in it.

Tea is great.
But outlet is small, no place to sit inside. But you can come n order from car parking itself. Service is also good, they have lots of people working in, so within no time you will get your tea.
Great sandwich flavors , try parataa bread with cheese and chips oman and add Chilli. They do good karak tea also
Nice Indonesian food 🎉
Neat and clean place food of your choice. Tasty and enjoyable. Lovely service.

Amazing stuff, but missing basic services, the attendant told me that you need to ask for napkins as we dont provide it ourselves, so tissue and wet tissue is also on the menu 😂
Tea and paratha is very good
Never ask for delivery. I missed my lunch due to their poor delivery service which never reached to me even after followup calls. And they didn’t care about it.
Coffee and beef porota sandwiche 5/5

Quick service, polite staff. Food freshly prepared. (Usually I asked for egg-whites omelette sandwich with minimum oil) and they respect my request.
Charge of double egg sandwich + black coffee, 7dhs
Very nice Indian tea taste. Small cozy place to sit outside.
The best service and atmosphere. Every staff member remembers your name and your tea. They make you feel like family.i will go back again.
Love it..❣️❣️

House of Tea Cafeteria is well known as one of the best To Go breakfast in Abu Dhabi. The Cheesy Chips Oman Paratha is awesome. Tea Cake & Karak are one of the terrific combinations to order. I hope I’m not the only person who dips their cake into Karak and then eat it. :)
Very very bad food . Such a waste . I got a tastless kanji from there . They spoil my lunch. Then I call the restaurant for the feedback . Even there is no malayalis to speak about Nadal kanji . In my view The kanji is a traditional food from kerala . If it is making by bangalis or someone how it will be. Please don't wate the money very bad

One of the best karak tea on the go! Usually sugar is a bit high but if you ask for less sugar, they’ll make you a perfect cup of tea. Recently i was just surprised by their food quality. Ordered their burgers and sandwiches, they were just amazing.
Great to find Tea break in almost every corner of Abu Dhabi, all the branches have same standards and quality. The prices are also quite reasonable.
Keep it up guys!

What a ridiculous Tea. It tasted more like sugar syrup than tea! It has lost its charm. Too much sugar in the milk tea. Almost impossible to drink tea here. It has lost its charm.

Best location, friendly staffs and service is nice. Snacks are good. Peaceful place.
Very good food. Quickly getting. Very less prices and nice peoples
Horrible staff and horrible service. Very arrogant. We asked for coffee and they gave us a hot chocolatend when asked he started arguing and kept the money in our car and walked away. Less than one star review. Don't ever go here
Dar Al Rahmaniyah Cafeteria is located in the Majaz area. I stopped here to get some breakfast. I ordered a plain parata , Karak Tea and Halwa. Small dining area inside the restaurant.
Friendly and polite staff.
Paid parking space is available.

Beautiful location and beautiful decor. The food was 4/5 the service was 5/5.
It was overall a lovely experience and the food was filling and very delicious.
For the coffee we got matcha 🍵 and Spanish latte. The matcha was not good but the Spanish latte was alright.
We would definitely go back for the food and nice ambiance.
Their palli choru.(Beef rice)
Disgusting taste
Weird, left over takeaway food for the second time
Im going to throw out
Pakistani taste in dishes .

Low cost but tasty menu .

Pakistani snacks also available samose .pakore .papar.

In breakfast paye ,haleem ,saag and nahari also available on alternate days.

Outdoor sitting also there .
This cafe is known for its special 'Karak tea'. You can get some Indian breakfast items like pakodas and idlis, this is a 'self-service' cafe

I ordered Chicken Shawarma Saj and Avocado juice through Zomato. Worst experience ever. The shawarma didn't even tasted like shawarma. The bread was like chapathi and Avocado juice was 95% milk and water. I personally don't recommend this place.

I usually bought Karak 2 AED, today he took 4 AED 🙂
How come!!!!! The price changed between a day?!
It’s too expensive for just Karak!!
I love their tea but after this will never come again :(
Chicken 🐓🐔 chilly 😍 fantastic.

And even Sada Chai(Karak Tea) is amazing.
It's awesome and so tasty flavors I loved

Tea break Al Zahiyah Near KIA Motors. It depends what time you get there you will be able to find parking. Today I stopped here to get some breakfast. I ordered the egg and cheese sandwich, which came with a strip of beef. Saffron tea was very nice, a little bit too sweet for me. The egg sandwich was delicious. Creamy cheese and crispy beef. Very nicely packaged. Definitely recommend this place for quick and tasty breakfast. Good customer service. Wheelchair accessible.
Finest Porotta Sandwich in town...
