Get ready Abu Dhabi: beloved Bib Gourmand 3Fils is expanding to the capital! The restaurant, managed by Lab Holding group, is set to open its second home in The Abu Dhabi EDITION in the buzzy Al Bateen marina later this year.
Since opening in Dubai in 2016, 3Fils has cemented itself as a favourite among the city’s homegrown brands. Its innovative menu has garnered popularity with Dubai locals and tourists, leading to long queues and a growing restaurant space. Its dishes have also impressed MICHELIN Guide inspectors who taken note of their vibrant flavours, particularly their Chilean sea bass and truffle Wagyu burger.

The move is seemingly a no-brainer according to restaurant founder, Ahmed Abdul Hakim. "Expanding to Abu Dhabi is a natural progression for us, given the tremendous support and love we've received in Dubai," he explains.
“We are excited the Lab Holding’s new venture and hope to bring our distinctive dining experience to a new audience. Our goal is to redefine the culinary landscape in Abu Dhabi, just as we have in Dubai.”
The restaurant’s first outpost outside of Dubai will be located within the upscale and trendy MICHELIN-selected hotel, The Abu Dhabi EDITION, and will be spread across a three-levels with two terraces offering waterfront views of Al Bateen’s marina, not fraying too far from the ambiance of its Dubai branch, situated in the Jumeirah Fishing Harbour.
