Ay, Diablito!
What a marvelous, relaxed-style restaurant and bar – and rooftop! – located dockside smack bang in Yas Marina!
No better place in Abu Dhabi to catch up with friends and enjoy a charming meal of Spanish food and bev…
Diablito has a special vibe – it’s chilled, and effortless; and at the same time it’s classy, but understated, and cozy – and just plain delicious!
I’m going to jump right in with the yumminess, and later we’ll look at the rooftop hang-out and fully-stocked bar…
Diablito simply ranks high on the straight-up deliciousness:
Spanish favorites, cooked and seasoned just perfectly!
Shrimps with garlic… chicken and prawn croquettas…
…battered calamari… so crispy and light, and served with luscious aioli…
Patatas Bravas, just amazing!
Mega-choice of pizzas, fantastic thin crusts…
And marvelous paellas – authentic, and so expertly prepared!
Look closer, and you see the famed socarrat – the crispy, toasted rice so loved by paella connoisseurs!
And despite the impressive location dockside, where basically you could step off your yacht and step into Diablito, the atmosphere is chill and friendly – and alongside the magnificent Spanish food, I’d say that is Diablito’s best feature.
Diablito is a restaurant where you instantly feel comfortable – at home.
The ambiance embraces you like a long-lost friend, and you become instantly a regular, even if it’s your first time visiting!
Grab a drink, make yourself comfortable, enjoy the cool weather and the marina view, and chat a little with your family and friends, and Diablito makes it so smooth and easy – like it’s meant to be.
And at some point, you’ll look at the time, and Oh! How did the time fly so fast? – because you were so immersed in the moment, so blissfully comfortable, and far away from workday worries and stress, that you blended into the atmosphere, in total happiness…
And, yes, have a dessert! Why not!
Diablito does that to you – it somehow puts you in a good mood…
… and then backs that up with pure and simple yumminess!
And you know that you now really are a Diablito regular – see you there!
Overall, for a wonderful chill-out eatery of authentic Spanish favorites, Diablito is a unique feel-good rendezvous in Abu Dhabi – making the most of its waterfront location and rooftop terrace, and presenting honest and delicious dishes and drinks, Diablito excels for a relaxing and even mood-transforming dining experience at Yas Marina.
