The Friday brunch at Iris is incredible! Appetizers definitely steal the show but the main and dessert weren’t bad either. There’s still no dancing or loud music due to covid but the place was full. Highly recommend this for a pocket friendly and filling brunch :)

Good bar to visit, we were staying at the nearby W so iris was seen from our room so we decided to give it a try, the lady on the phone was a bit weird but the places it good, food was amazing to me and my wife too, make sure to try the tacos , a real one ! the environment was comfy and relax

The place is cool and lively..music, drinks and chatter by the water. A brunch visit is recommended if you havent already..unfortunately Covid made the usual brunch experience a bit underwhelming.

Went to Iris Brunch the food was good the drinks were slow, if your dress isnt short enough dont expect to get help from the male waiters. Lost my shoes were told off by 4 of the managers once again my dress wasnt short enough for their helping preferences.All in all super disappointed with the manner in which I was treated.Overall experience with my friends and the drinks, food and ambience was good.Anne was amazing.

The staff were excellent especially Nas. Gret drinks and delicious food. Definitely recommend.

A very cabin crew theme place with house music. The thumbs up👍 is to the food..

Iris is veryyyy respectful and classyyy!! I love the staff they are very helpful!! The sushi night is great offer ... best sushi offer!! 100 aed for open buffet...and ghey have dinner offer that is amazing too ... my advice is to order salmon as main dish...

My local friends warned me against this place. So, if I could write ZERO stars I would. Even though we were consistently struggling to get waiters over to our table my major reason for this complaint is based on the menu. The menu of truffle fries describe a baked potato on a plate with black sauce. The dish arrived and displayed four slices of a potato with gray sauce on it. So when I gave the plate back to the waitress, I told her this was not what I expected and I did not want it. When the bill came out, I told them that I gave these fries back and (due to their large audience) they didn’t remember my complaint. The manager came over and slammed the bill on the table and yelled, “PAY THE BILL OR CALL THE POLICE!!!!” I have NEVER been treated this way by management. When my friend expressed our complaint, both the waitress and the manger laughed. Honestly, I wanted to fight tears back from embarrassment. On our way out, the bar manager did approach me and try to make amends. He was very kind, however, I want nothing to do with Iris. I will never give that place my money or time again. Now, I see what my friends were talking about. I really wanted to give the place a try because it seems like it has an amazing ambience, BUT that manager needs to be fired. He’s pushing good business away.! That really upsets me.

Lovely atmosphere, good liquor variety but the food menu is too eclectic..

Good, friendly ,vibrant vibe

Newly reopened. Looks pretty sweet after a complete remodel. Entry is now via the Cipriani entrance rather than down the side where it used to be. I expect this place to become very popular with the hip crowd.... best Moscow Mule I have had this year :)

Very nice place the drinks are perfectly done ✅The staff are welcoming 👏

Music is great , amazing atmosphere and ambiance, friendly staff and service is top notch, food is delicious and the cocktails are waw , omar and jimmy keep up the good work , definitely will come back , cheers

Amazing place

Enjoy the sushi night during the Euro cup!

Amazing place in a perfect location with amazing views of Yas Marina with a perfectly designed menu to enjoy good time with friends or with your couple.... the service was also excellent ... I will definitely repeat and would recommend to others....

Good vibes, nice crowd, food not bad, cons would be very loud and if you want to tlsk to someone, you would suffer, small screens so if u plan to follow a match, forget it unless you are sitting adjacent to it, poor parking experience so go early, everything else around it is closed so better have a Boling before you decide to go and not find a place

Was a bad experience for me and my friends. Just avoid a bad moment without coming here. Need to change that manager. I liked this place but now we are so disappointed with the manner in wich we were treated.

Iris Brunch is spectacular, que quality of the food and drinks are way beyond you expect. And the music is amazing, DJ really know how to keep the people and make them enjoy. Definitely Im coming back.

Great hang out environment with excellent customer service

Pathetic, Wednesday eve basically empty. You cannot enter in flip flop even if the bar is in a Marina and I do not recall having seen any Michelin’s stars ... life something is about pretending but there is a limit ...

Horrible experience in this place dont come here, bad attention, the manager is very rude. We came here and they asked if we had reservation, we said not but our husbands are inside, my husband came out and the manager forced him to get inside again took him for his arm, and asked him ¿Why you out? My husband said: My wife is here and this manager push my husband. The manager have some mental issues for that behavior. Dont come here avoid a bad experience.

I have heard a lot of negative reviews about Iris and how discriminating and racist they were but I still decided to give their brunch a go (against my best judgment)..... and it did indeed deliver on the disappointment front!I made a reservation for 2 tables for a total of 6 guests and to my shock I was taken to a table in the corner of the bar next to the trash bin... I was mortified and I asked to see a manager! But 15 mins later an assistant manager comes after I repeated my request multiple times..He was completely unprofessional, rude and very dismissive of my complaint, I simply asked to be moved to a better table where the waiting staff is not squeezing behind us to throw the trash and make drinks on the other side and his answer was simply that they are busy and he can’t do anything for me, and when I asked why they even take reservations when they can’t offer customers reasonable tables he had no answer and seemed very agitated that I am wasting his time... so I had no option but to leave as both myself and my friends were quite offended by the whole encounter!I would have given them a -5 star review if it was possible for the horrible and insulting customer service they have

Must visit. Cook music 🎶 nice drinks & lovely atmosphere

The manager was very rude!! The place was empty but they act like they are exclusive. The manager was trying to start a physical fight with one of our friends with no reason!!, all women there were so scary with the manager behavior.

Amazing place. Will definitely go back.

This is a nice bar with a relaxed but warm atmosphere. We visited on a Thursday evening and it was very quiet when we arrived, but livened up and became busy around 10.30pm. Nice beers and cocktails but staff could be a bit friendlier.

One of the few night bars in Abu Dhabi where you can sit outside and enjoy marina view

Please read all the bad reviews about the terrible staff and agresive manager before to come to this horrible place, please spend your money having a good time not in this bad place you will have the worst experience in all Abu Dhabi.

I would like to share my feedback! First the of all The view and place are an incredible! And i appreciate it for best service and welcome for mr. Nass what he did in my birthday that day 🙏🏾 thanks for everything and unfortunately I forgot the security guy name he was also so friendly . Highly recommended!

Best spot in yas! Staff is friendly and the service is excellent. Plus bojan gave us a great service

Best Nightclub and lounge in Abu Dhabi. Great house music on wednesdays and fun nights with 80/90s music on sundays!! A place must to visit!! Great drinks, views and very nice environment!! Terrace is available outside with great view on Yas Marina

I had new years day brunch here, setting amd view is wow!! Food is good too 😋

The Friday brunch food was not good at all but the ambience was nice. staff need more training.

Great service , prices are not to bad , music was nice .

Upmarket, fun place around the Yas area. Fridays and stairways are quite crowded. Great place to let your hair down, have a blast and enjoy a decent meal. Av we rage costs vary anywhere above 200 to 300 dirhams if alcohol is consumed.Multiple restaurants and bars around. Stars and Bars is my favorite.

One of the best cocktails bars of the area. Cocktails are really well done, even if sometimes they are quite light and lack of alcohol. Dress appropriately as it is quite cozy and they make selection at the entrance. Prices are higher than the average of other bars nearby.

Nice place

We had first class service from ANN. She was very kind and professional, she took cake of us and made us feel very important.

Crazy manager who want to fight with no reason, bad attention, they will treat you so bad, if you want to have a really good time please DON’T COME HERE!!!

Beautiful Marina

As always great service

Very poor Friday brunch, everything is changed after lockdown, I went there 2 times before it was amazing service and food, but whats happened to this place now? The staff unpolite and food was very poor quality...definatelly will never come back to this place after last experience

As usual amazing place amazing drink cheers and appreciate 👌

Always pleasant. Good place, beautiful surroundings, good vibes, good food and good drinks

I dont like the staff in this place at all, doesnt matter if the place is nice you will pay for a bad treat

I dont even remember how many time I have been in this club but I do remember a thing that no matter what night it is, I always loved the ambiance, the music and the bar tenders over here.I have been almost in all the clubs in abu dhabi but to be very honest bar tenders of Iris are the most entertaining among all.There djs are not just locals but they bring djs from all around the world who perform there and the crowd just go crazy on that music.I took these pictures on several occasions and posting them all together.It’s been a long time since I have never went to Iris coz I have moved to dubai.Hope to be there soon. Missing it already.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER ! I wont come back again

Well..it was always a great place...however nowadays only its almost impossible to make a reservation..its basically the only kinda club opened after covid 19...advise: book one week ahead..specially for the weekend ( Thursday/Friday).and keep in mind you will stay only gor 3 hours then out to accommodate next customers

Poor menu on the happy hour some of the staff not friendly, very expensive.

Good atmosphere, 2 large bars so never too long to queue for a drink. Good cocktails. Got busy after 10pm on Thursday when the DJ started.

It used to be one of the very few places where I want to have fun and hangout, but recently it has lost its uniqueness and crowd filling experience, it ha become, unfortunately, dull.Sundays are still good though.

Amazing place 👌🏻Friendly stuff 👍🏻Excellent management 💯-1 star for pricing + promotions 💔

Dont come here if you dont want to get in trouble, bad attitude, bad attention, and problematic staff, and when I said problematic is people that maybe want to hit you physically.

I had a bad experience with this place, the stuff were rude.

I wonder if such a place can’t afford to equip good quality speakers. Sound system is disturbing indoors.

Now thats What I love, reviewing the place as I am from the hospital industry .I give it 1 STAR only because of the Manger Omar not my favourite, needs to chill a bit specially with regulars.His ego is on his nose, not expected.Lets begin , I love Jimmy , Anna & Jeff as they spoil you, they know and remember what your orders are and names.So you need to visit coz of the hospality of the staff. Hell yeaaas they are sweethearts I would visit over and over only for them.So make a wise decision!!!!!

Great place and lovely vibes

Excellent classy ambiance!!

Your enjoyment depends on what day it is, somedays its good and there are allot of people, other days its just empty.

Excellent place for a weekend evening!

We booked a table for a birthday celebration,of course it was separate due to corona pandemic but in the same time our bill wasnt separate. The bill situation wasnt handled properly!(we had discounted items but in the same time we didnt know how much was our discount because it wasnt displayed in the receipt) Our server Jeff wasnt friendly and helpful, few times we were obviously ignored by him. The menu doesnt have cocktails and beer on it so when you ordered you dont know how much it costs. Later on the music was way too loud! Why? Nobody cant dance anyway.... So we ended up screaming during all conversations. Very disappointed in our visit.It wasnt all negative... Sushi and the cocktails were good.

Its nice place,not that big but enogh for dancing and stay on the table. House music lovers. Service is good and fast.

The most racist place you can find in Yas Island, perhaps they should put a Whites Only sign on the entrance. If you black they ask you a bunch of questions before letting you inside, while inside you literally get ignored at the bar while they clearly serve people they can see came after you. I thought l was over reacting until me and my friends had to sit and observe as we took turns getting a drink. Its really horrible, nobody deserves to be treated that way!

Lovely boat view and good environment

Great 👌 place with friends 😉

Ok

Love

Nice hangout place for weekends. Has really good crowd with a great ambiance.

Just one word Fantastic

Every Friday night it’s deep house/minimal music! Truly hard to find in uae such underground music vibes!🙌

If I could give this place negative stars I would. Very very nasty disrespectful aggressive staff. They refused me and 3 other ladies entry on a ladies night stating that it was too busy and we needed a table reservation. Right after they continued to let multiple other females in minutes after we were turned away.The way the female security looked us up and down was disgusting and unprofessional it was clear she was bitter and spiteful. We were dressed smart whilst they were letting females with trainers in and it was clearly a smart casual affair. We had friends inside who we had told that we were refused entry, our friend then comes to the door to see us and the large Obese brutish male guard viciously dragged her out for talking to us and wouldn’t even allow her back in to collect her belongings. The whole situation was very extreme and unnecessary, there was clearly a different motive behind this treatment than the ‘club being full’ . The obvious discrimination was laughable, we watched groups of the white females get in with no questions at all it was a joke.I took a picture of the club front to write this review about the already awful experience. They had the audacity to accuse me of taking a direct picture of the rude security guard (the overall experience was awful, it wasn’t all about him)! I was forcibly taken outside of the complex alone by 3 huge intimidating security guards whilst my friends were being told to wait inside. They tried to surround, isolate and interrogate me outside screaming in my face threatening to call the police about the stupid picture and even tried to snatch my phone out of my hand! This was completely pathetic, uncalled for and excessive when it was not a picture directly of security.This place is very racist, it needs to be closed down if that is how they are going to treat potential customers. It is very sad that a country and complex that thrives on welcoming tourism and ex pats from other cultures is very selective about who they let in and then use bully tactics to frighten young women.I will be telling everyone about this experience, the other staff that work there should be ashamed to work for such a racist establishment. Absolutely disgusting in this day and age.

The place was beautiful and the view was nice. The food was decent and the staff were very happy and friendly. Nice place to hangout.

7 star area

Food nice

Very nice

Modern and flashy location. To improve the clubs identity. It would be nice to have famous guest DJs here.

Nice bar

AED50 ($13/£10) for a can of Pepsi!!Bar staff didnt even look interested in serving us, had to try and get their attention 3 or 4 times!Very poor, expected much better for the location.

Great location in the Yas Marina area. Great for dinner and drinks and an amazing place to visit during the Abu Dhabi F1. One of the best fried calamari I have had and also great cocktails!

Horrible low quality place. Visitors, who dont know how to behave and careless security and management. Very racist place. We were a group of 3 ladies annoyed by drunk guys, which were pushing us and swearing at us. After complaining to security nothing happened: manager was the same nationality with those disrespectful people, speaking in arabic. Instead of clarifying the situation we received laugh as a response from management. Very disappointing and strongly not recommended to decent people 👎

An absolutely racist space, its a shame that a place thats meant for relaxing dancing and having a few drinks is turned into a nasty xenophobic place. The staff are rude and unprofessional , eyeing people in the most undiginifying manner. Idk what they are trying to do but absolutely they seem to believe that they can judge people by their skin colour or what they wear. If you think that these kind of evils must be purged from our society then do not support such a place. Apparently being a good human being is overrated.

Ladies free drinks on Wednesdays! Cool place to chill with friends. Music dance.

Had a great night out since its a nice place with good music

Went for ladies night and it was and still one of the best places in Abu Dhabi

1st time here at Iris, Sundays Ladies night. We were a group of four, 3 ladies 1guy.Many thanks to Elena great service from behind the bar.Loved the atmosphere will be back.

Long waiting time then very slow personal it look the not like to work for this high priced bar can be better service expected .

So nice place and good service, but meneger of enter so bad and not normal lady.god bless her🤭

Awesome place

Boo. Planned on Friday brunch and bevvies from their outstanding gin bar but they didnt open! Later the page changed to say they arent opening until September.

Nice and big place with indoor and outdoor bars and tables. Nice place for outting.

Place is good but the prices are sooo high..

Music were boring, service not as usual, but i like it

The ambience, the music, was awestruck!

I wouldnt even give a star for this place, small place, bad service. i went there with my wife and my wife saw a vacant table so she was abt to sit when a lady waiter jump on her physically pushing her saying in a really rude way that that table is reserved! we left straight after this with no intension to go there ever. i wouldnt recommande this place to anyone especially couples.

A nice place to go and party with mates

One of the favourite places in Abu Dhabi for its outdoor space, views, sleek interior and drinks

Good

Ok👍😻

Ladies night...80s & 90s was the best
