About Arbequina Restaurant


Where the rich traditions of Arabic cuisine meets the cutting-edge artistry of modern culinary innovation. Recently recognized by the Michelin Guide, Arbequina is a labour of love, co-created by Chef Moeen Abuzaid and his wife. 

At Arbequina Restaurant, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our menu evolves with the seasons and local availability, featuring almost 100% locally sourced produce. We work hand-in-hand with our farmers and suppliers, and we cultivate our special herbs in our own garden. We prioritize whole utilization of fruits, vegetables, and proteins to minimize waste. Additionally, as a zero-proof establishment, we craft exquisite non-alcoholic beverages that complement our cuisine.

We hope the space we’ve created feels warm and beautiful, and that each dish transports you to a landscape rich with tradition and flavour.
