About

If you’re fortunate enough to have experienced a meal in the Middle East, you know all about their warmth, ambiance and extravagance. Whether it’s on a terrace accompanied by an afternoon tea, or sipping Arak in the evening, the “joie de vivre” can’t be missed.

Having successfully recreated the magic, our chef Joe Awad and his team have put together a menu featuring traditional flavours reimagined with a modern flare.

Our friendly and attentive staff will make you feel as though you’ve walked through the fabric of time to the other side of the world. Prepare your tastebuds, they’re in for an amazing experience!

We ate at Shay for the first time today. It was amazing. 10/10. Service was outstanding, the cocktails were delicious & original, the food just blew us away. We were super full when we left, & even brought home some leftovers (which we can't wait to eat tomorrow). We can't wait to go back! Great vibe & amazing food & service. Highly recommend!!

Absolutely delicious food & professional & attentive service staff. Very creative cocktail list & aesthetically pleasing presentation. A calm environment with excellent lighting & music quiet enough to easily hear one another & while still providing a nice ambiance. Lots of space between tables, which made us comfortable in light of the pandemic. Highly recommended!
