Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers, the ultimate five-star hotel, is thrilled to announce the opening date of its new addition to its already-Michelin-selected line-up of incredible bars and restaurants.
Say hola to José by Pizarro: This high end yet casual tapas bar will transport you straight to the vibrant and colourful streets of Seville, where you can enjoy the ultimate Spanish tapas experience.
Opening on the 17th of March, José by Pizarro is the brainchild of the award-winning chef, restaurateur, and author, José Pizarro, who is fondly known as the “Godfather of Spanish Cuisine” in the UK and across Spain. You may have already heard of his acclaimed restaurant group and his intimate venue, José Tapas Bar Bermondsey in London. Diners can expect the same beautiful food and fabulous atmosphere in Abu Dhabi.
You’ll love the cosy and intimate vibes of José by Pizarro, where you can feast on the most delicious and authentic Spanish dishes that Abu Dhabi has to offer. The restaurant boasts a vast collection of premium beverages to enjoy a truly immersive dining experience.

Get ready to tantalise your taste buds with a curated selection of José’s most popular dishes, prepared by his expert kitchen team. Start your feast with some delicious small plates, such as spicy chicken croquetas, prawn fritters, and potato tortilla.
After that, move on to some seriously scrumptious Spanish specialities and bigger sharing plates, such as Spanish red tuna tartare, traditional lamb meatballs, and free-range chicken paella. And if you have room for more, prepare to indulge in some of José’s finest and most decadent desserts, including chocolate pots with salt and olive oil, homemade Spanish almond tart with figs and custard, and a spectacular cheese selection served with fruits and chutneys.
José by Pizarro will open its doors to guests from 17th March 2023, open 6 days a week with seating on a first come first served basis.
Tuesday to Saturday 5:00pm to 11:30pm, Sunday, 3:00pm to 10:30pm.
