Message from the Founder
Ahmad Atwi
Otantik was created with one purpose, to share the love of Mediterranean food and hospitality with the people of the UAE. From the very beginning, I wanted to build a place where people could enjoy authentic flavors in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Every dish we serve, every cup of coffee we pour, and every shisha blend we prepare is made with passion and care. My team and I take pride in making sure every guest leaves with a smile, feeling like they’ve experienced something truly special.
We look forward to welcoming you again and again.
