A bit shady location, if you are early you are more likely to be own your own. I loved the jackfruit wrap. Happy hours on wine was totally worth it. A bit annoyed because the one of the staff member was bit rude.

Awesome place for beer both indoors and outdoors. Try their flat bread especially the lamb one. And do ask for Gayane. She is the best.

I wouldve love to give a 5* since am a regular and love UP & BELOW rooftop bar but rated 1* as i was extremely disappointed with the food that we ordered which was the butter chicken and gnocchi...butter chicken came in a bowl with rice overpowered by lots of sauce which i thought itll come seperately but we couldnt eat the food...as for the gnocchi...again the tomato sauce was overpowering and no taste at all...we had the BOGO on main course and it was a waste of the voucher...the staff are very welcoming but i thought a manager would be there to assist the complain...in vain...we paid for food which was not to the level of expectation. Very disappointed!!!hopefully theyll change in consideration to the above mentioned.

The service is great, the location is good, and the prices are good. However, the dress code is silly. The outdoor space is a pool bar setting with lifeguards and people in swimwear, yet men aren’t allowed to wear shorts to come to the bar. Now that it’s getting hot again, this makes it impossible for men to go here and sit outside comfortably. Also, they have unfortunately made charges to the menu. The nachos used to be really good. Now they are just cold corn chips with flavourless pre-made “cheese” sauce the usual dips.

I love the place. Went on Tuesday 😊 Kizomba was going down.. Good music, good Vibes and theyve got a bar outside where you can smoke Shisha and also saw a swimming pool but it wasnt functional at that time of the night. Although I didnt enjoy my drink 😒 I requested for Fresh Orange juice but was served packaged juice instead asides that every other thing was on point. Great Staff👍 polite and friendly.

The place has a nice atmosphere, very nice view. Servers are very nice, food was delicious and well served, short menu (what I like) but the hard glassy menu was horrible for everybody on the table to see the items. Please make something individual and smaller. Drafts are very affordable. Highly recommend.

Their silent disco parties are the best. Next level music and atmosphere which make you feel like you’re somewhere else.

It exceeded my expectation. This was my 2nd time at this place but my first time staying outdoor. The staff were accommodating especially the waitress and waiter that were on duty last Monday night. The place is perfect if you just want to bond with your friends and family. The music was mellow so you dont have to shout to each other to communicate. The happy hour was worth it. Love the dip of the nachos as well. I will definitely visit soon.

Regularly attend Lipsync battles and Silent Disco party at this location. Good location, easy to find and have complimentary valet parking. Will recommend for drinks with friends. Nice ambience and almost always has something on at the weekends during the winter months.

Went to Up & Below on New Year’s Eve with my friends. We noticed the average reviews, unfortunately however, this place was a terrible disappointment . To begin with the simple things like upon arriving and checking our reservation the manager plainly dismissed us off saying we dont have a reservation. We politely clarified to him that we have turned up after receiving a confirmation call from his team and he just needs to verify it. He seemed annoyed with request to check this out, however in the meanwhile a lady assisting him got it checked and apologized for overlooking this. I had made reservation for 6 people and even the guest list showed 6 people however the floor Manager came up with this new version of his story that he had called me half an hour ago and said they could only accommodate 4 (which is a lie) as nobody called me but he went on arguing but I was not ready for that because I went there to have a good time. And then he took us in around 8.30 pm to a gave us a table next to the door and when I asked him if I can sit outside or some other table he refused saying that it was all booked but until 10.30 pm nobody came to that place and he simply refused to give us a better table. And to top it all one of the staff even told us that we have only been complaining from the time we arrived ( we just requested them to make the flickering bulbs next to us to stop flickering) This is something totally unacceptable and antagonizing behavior . So then I wanted to escalate this and took this matter to some of their senior staff but nobody was supportive or gave us a solution . I would never ever recommend this place to anybody, by far this the worst place that I’ve ever been with the most innept floor manager. By far this the WORST place EVER that we hav ever been! We certainly recommend you to avoid this place and save yourself from an unpleasant situation!

As a solo business traveller a good drinking place after a day of work is a must and Up and Below hits the spot. It’s got a great ambience, and is busy enough for atmosphere but in a very comfortable way. Every gin and tonic I have ordered has been perfect - a rare feet indeed. The outdoor terrace is a great way to unwind, I have yet to find a casual bar for a drink that beats it in Abu Dhabi. PS. Take the lift past reception to get there.

Stunning rooftop bar with great parties and comedy shows. Selection of drinks and food items is very wide. This is the place where you whether can just sit back and relax with shisha or come during weekend and party till late.

This review is for a live band performance. Please do not post misleading information about Festa Brasiliera event -- the band does not start at 7pm as listed on your event page, but at 10pm :( They are not equipped for a band, the sounds system doesnt seem to work. Disappointing..
