Choices

Choices is the all-day dining restaurant at the Yas Island Rotana, an international buffet operation that covers breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a breadth that serves the hotel's mixed clientele of business travellers, families, and event attendees. The buffet format is well-organised, with live cooking stations and a rotating selection that maintains quality and variety. The dinner buffet offers a broad international spread - grills, seafood, Asian dishes, Arabic options, and a dessert counter that rounds out the offering. The breakfast is comprehensive and efficient, with a strong selection that stays replenished during busy periods. Burgers, spring rolls, and fattoush salad are reliable a la carte options during off-peak hours. Service is the consistent highlight. The team is attentive and genuinely caring, with staff who go out of their way for elderly guests, manage gala dinners with smooth coordination, and maintain a hospitable energy throughout busy services. The restaurant handles group bookings and special events with competence, and the kitchen accommodates dietary preferences naturally. The overall operation is well-managed, with strong coordination between front-of-house and kitchen teams that keeps the experience smooth.
