Buffet in Sharjah, Taier Al Monal, Abu Shaghara, Sharjah

Two ways to buffet

Buffet in Sharjah

A weekend spread with live stations, or a weeknight dinner buffet, Monday to Friday: same kitchen, same warmth.

Two Pakistani buffets, one kitchen: a Weekend Premium Buffet (Saturday to Sunday, AED 65/33) with live BBQ, weekend specials and a full dessert table, and a Weekday Dinner Buffet (Monday to Friday, AED 42 for adults and AED 22 for kids) built for a regular visit, not a special occasion. Both are halal, both include live tandoor-grilled kabab, and both are served in Abu Shaghara, Sharjah, opposite Nesto Hypermarket.

Prefer to order a single dish? The full à la carte menu runs to 20 categories, and there are combo deals from AED 11.99. On a Sunday the buffet gives way to halwa puri brunch. Feeding a bigger group? The same kitchen handles catering from AED 45 a head and birthday packages in the dining room.

Saturday, Sunday · 7:00 PM to 12:00 AM

Adults AED 65·Kids AED 33

We offer dinner buffet on weekends with a variety of continental and Pakistani food.

Children under 5 dine free · Ages 5 to 10 half price

The room

Counter First, Then a Table

The line runs down one side of the hall and the seating fills the rest, so a full house on a Saturday still moves.

The buffet counter

Salad bar, live chaat and the chafing line, restocked through the night rather than laid out once.

The long dining hall at Taier Al Monal, laid with rows of set tables

The main hall

Rows laid fresh before every service, so walking in without a booking usually still gets you a table.

Tables joined into long rows at Taier Al Monal for a large group booking, with high chairs set out

Seated for a group

Tables joined end to end for twenty or more, high chairs and all, on a few days’ notice.
