Reviews Summary

Butcher & Still is widely praised for its exceptional steaks and high-quality ingredients, often hailed as the best in Abu Dhabi. Diners also rave about the stylish, 1920s-inspired ambiance and the attentive, friendly service that makes for memorable occasions. While generally a high-end experience with a corresponding price point, some reviews mention inconsistencies with certain cuts of meat, suggesting a possible shift in sourcing.

"We had a wonderful dinner at Butcher & Still. The food was excellent — we ordered steak and the Caesar salad, both cooked to perfection and full of flavor. The cookie skillet dessert was absolutely delicious, the perfect way to end the meal.

Service was exceptional from start to finish. A big thank you to Houssam, the manager, who made us feel so welcome, and to our attentive and friendly servers. We’ll definitely be coming back!"

Tamara Aranda

"First time to Butcher & Still.

Great service, staffs are attentive and welcoming. Nice ambience except for the slightly loud music. Nevertheless, got used to it after a while.

Food is good, huge portions and the steaks are well cooked. I especially liked the Baked Brie Cheese as it goes really well with the fresh berries and honey! What a pleasant surprise! 🥳

Wanted to try the dessert but was too full. Definitely will be back next time to try out the dessert!

“Next time, Baby.. Next time!” 🍨 🍰"

Butcher and Still, in the Four Seasons Hotel on Al Maryah Island, has been styled like a prohibition-era Chicago restaurant. It nails this look with its long bar, low lighting, and selection of steaks and cocktails. Meat is king here, but before you settle down to tackle the 1,200 gram tomahawk chop (a 21-day aged, bone-in ribeye steak) make sure you try the bone marrow, served with grilled break homemade pickles, and garlic jam, or the oysters, flown in from Europe.
