Alright, lovebirds, listen up! Valentine’s Day is creeping up faster than a last-minute gift panic, and if you haven’t locked in your plans yet, don’t worry—we’ve got you. Actually, Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi has you. Because this year, they’re rolling out the red (and very romantic) carpet at Isla Beach Bar, and it’s the kind of swoon-worthy setup that makes movie romances look like child’s play.
A Love Story with a Havana Twist
Nestled along the gorgeous Corniche, Isla Beach Bar is bringing Havana vibes straight to Abu Dhabi. By day, it’s a laid-back sun-soaked paradise where you can sip on something chilled and nibble on light tapas. But come nightfall, it transforms into an enchanting, candlelit escape, perfect for whispering sweet nothings while enjoying bold flavors and a stellar hubbly bubbly menu.
And this Valentine’s Day? Let’s just say they’re turning the romance dial all the way up. Think: twinkling lights, ocean breezes, and the kind of intimate ambiance that practically demands you lean in just a little closer.
A Menu Made for Love (and Foodies)
Now, let’s talk food—because nothing says “I adore you” like a five-course feast designed to make your taste buds fall in love. The night kicks off with freshly shucked oysters (because, of course), jazzed up with a tangy red vinaigrette, lime, and a kick of Tabasco. Then, the Wagyu beef carpaccio arrives, melting on your tongue in a glorious mix of truffle cream, peppery arugula, and balsamic reduction.
Just when you think it can’t get better, out comes the spinach and ricotta-stuffed ravioli, all dreamy and draped in a velvety chive-infused sauce. Then, for the main event, you’ve got options—because choice is the spice of life (or, in this case, love). Pick between a hearty Seabass Stew packed with calamari, shrimp, mussels, and crispy fennel or a perfectly grilled Beef Striploin with all the fancy sides your heart desires.
And then, just as you’re teetering on the edge of fullness but still have a little room (because dessert stomach is real), they bring out a decadent Black Forest Cake with chocolate-dipped strawberries. Sweet, rich, and totally worth every bite.
Serenades & Sips Under the Stars
While you’re lost in conversation (or just eyeing your partner over that last bite of cake), live music from a violinist and cellist will be filling the air, making the night feel straight out of a fairytale. And to keep the drinks flowing, you can sip on handcrafted cocktails, fine wines, or bubbly—because what’s romance without a little toasting?
Choose Your Perfect Setting
Want to be in the heart of the action? Grab a table at the restaurant, elegantly set with a rose centerpiece and all the vibes. Prefer something a little more private? Opt for a cabana, decked out in Valentine’s décor and flowers, where you can enjoy the night in your own secluded little bubble of romance.
