Tahini, a rich and velvety paste made from ground sesame seeds, is a treasure of ancient civilizations. Its name, derived from the Arabic word “Tahini” meaning to grind, speaks of its humble beginnings.

The eastern Mediterranean region, where sesame seeds were a staple crop, first welcomed tahini as a condiment and ingredient in dishes. And through the ages, it has been marked in Levantine cuisines. Today, it continues to be a beloved ingredient, adding depth and nuttiness to dishes found in our menu.

The menu at Tahini is a complex bouquet celebration of the Levantine flavors and Mediterranean cuisines. We take great pride in sourcing our ingredients from local farms in the UAE and other Mediterranean countries, ensuring that each dish is made with the freshest and most authentic
savors.
