Attaché Riyadh: Where Fine Dining Meets Immersive Culture

Set in Riyadh’s prestigious Diplomatic Quarter, in Riyadh, Attaché isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a multisensory destination where gastronomy, music, and design converge to define a new era of lifestyle experiences in Saudi Arabia. Housed within a thoughtfully repurposed equestrian club, the venue unfolds as an urban sanctuary—lush, refined, and decidedly ahead of its time.

Launched by MDLBEAST, the powerhouse behind Saudi’s music and entertainment renaissance, Attaché brings a Michelin-level culinary ethos, a climate-conscious approach, and a vibrant social calendar to one of Riyadh’s most cosmopolitan enclaves.

A New Standard in Culinary Innovation

Under the creative leadership of Chef Emmanuel Soares, Attaché delivers a menu that is as ambitious as it is elegant. With a three-decade career that spans Parisian palaces and elite global resorts—including service at the Elysée Palace—Soares brings French finesse and international flair to the Saudi table.

His menu reflects farm-to-fork values, using seasonal ingredients sourced from local farms and even Attaché’s own garden. Signature dishes include Japanese Wagyu tartare, roasted corn salad, and Norwegian pavé of salmon, all artfully presented. For dessert, “Strawberries 3 Ways” is a standout—a playful trio of macerated berries, candy floss, and white chocolate crumble.

But this is more than cuisine—it’s culinary storytelling, designed to evolve with the day. Breakfast transitions into a leisurely lunch, which melts into sundown cocktails, each moment paired with curated soundscapes and a shifting atmosphere.

Four Spaces, Infinite Experiences

Attaché is divided into four immersive zones, each tailored for different moods and moments:

1. The Indoor/Outdoor Restaurant

An elegant, light-filled dining space surrounded by greenery and accented by warm desert hues. Diners enjoy al fresco cooking, garden-to-plate dishes, and a soundtrack that moves with the mood—from morning jazz to twilight electronica.

2. Privé

A members-only lounge offering a refined retreat for business meetings or private conversations. Expect artisanal coffee, global bites, and an intimate, ultra-chic setting.

3. The Lounge

Plush, dimly lit and designed for lingering, the lounge is perfect for after-dinner drinks or a quiet catch-up. Think soft sofas, curated playlists, and exceptional zero-proof mixology.

4. UNSTABLE

When night falls, Attaché transforms. UNSTABLE is the city’s most exclusive new music club, with a rotating lineup of DJs and performers. Designed with world-class acoustics and a dynamic energy, it’s a place where Riyadh’s nightlife pulses with sophistication.

Redefining Riyadh’s Entertainment Landscape

According to Simon Whitley, Operations and Culinary Director at MDLBEAST, Attaché was always meant to be more than just another fine-dining venue. “We’re creating a space where sound, design and taste collide,” he explains. “A supper club, yes—but elevated with immersive entertainment, world-class cuisine, and a strong sense of community.”

In a city rapidly embracing cultural expansion under Vision 2030, Attaché represents the future of Saudi lifestyle venues: stylish, inclusive, and deeply rooted in local values.

Sustainable by Design

At its core, Attaché is climate-conscious. From solar-efficient architecture to composting kitchen waste and crafting a thoughtful zero-proof drink menu inspired by Saudi flavors, sustainability is a guiding principle. The team works with local farms and aims to introduce carbon-neutral systems across operations.

“There’s elegance in restraint,” says Whitley. “We’re not only creating luxury, we’re creating it responsibly.”

A Cultural Landmark in the Making

As Attaché settles into its surroundings in the Diplomatic Quarter—flanked by embassies, art galleries, and landscaped promenades—it’s clear this is more than a hotspot. It’s a new social hub for the globally minded residents of Riyadh: diplomats, creatives, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.

The warm, modern interiors nod subtly to the Kingdom’s past, while the garden paths, mint-colored accents, and desert flora invite guests to linger, connect, and make memories worth repeating.

Whether you’re there for a curated lunch, a weekend brunch under the stars, or an electric night at UNSTABLE, Attaché offers a complete lifestyle experience—where every detail, from plating to playlist, is designed to leave an impression.
