Over the years, Chili's has established itself as the undisputed leader in taste and flavors, for casual
American and Tex-Mex dining. And Now, Chili's is coming to Yas Island for the first time, marking its
entry in the F1 circuit island. The Chili's Outlet, located in the Yas Mall, will be the fourth Chili's outlet in
Abu Dhabi and the 24th outlet for the restaurant chain in the UAE.
Following its hugely successful lunch menu roll out, the restaurant brand intends to further strengthen
its slice-of-life service portfolio through the new outlet. With two large screens in the outlet, its
customers can now enjoy the vibrant racing season and other sporting events, along with Chili's
signature dishes. The new Chili’s outlet has a dining area of 385 sqm and has an internal seating area of
108 seats, as well as an external capacity of 40 seats, embodying the spirit of Chili’s – it is fun, cool and
trendy.
With a regional presence of more than 17 years, it has consistently delighted UAE residents through
its impeccable service and international spread. Originally created as a hamburger restaurant/chili
house themed with traditional Southwestern flair, Chili’s has grown to become a leader in Casual Dining
with a wide variety of choices for diverse palettes, and a destination for quality home cooked food in a
casual, friendly environment. Innovative dishes such as Avocado Burger and Chicken Enchilada Pasta
complement traditional favorites such as Classic Fajita, BBQ Beef Ribs and the dessert lover’s favorite –
Molten Chocolate Cake.
Mr. Mohammed Saleh Bin Lahej, Group Chairman of SBLG-HD, says, “The entry of Chili's in Yas Island
marks yet another landmark for the brand, and we will continue to delight our customers with
unrelenting service standards and international cuisine options. The Yas Island development is a symbol
of the nations drive towards progress and we are glad to be a part of it'.
