When different people belonging to different cultures flock to this country, there is one thing that brings them together and helps them bond. Do you know what that is? It is the food! The food scene in the UAE is not something new or out of the ordinary; in fact, as the country has developed and expanded over a couple of years so has the standards of the restaurants that can be found there. Here, you will find some of the most awe-worthy restaurants in the entire world. From AT.MOSPHERE on level 122 of the Burj Khalifa to Blue Grill in Abu Dhabi to Syed Al Biryani in Sharjah; the dining options are countless. While these restaurants are primarily known for their finger-licking food, their restaurant design is undoubtedly a feast for the eyes.

Gone are the days when the quality of the food in front of your plate was the only thing that held importance. Customers now also pay close attention to the ambience of the place they are having their hearty meals at. Restaurateurs in the UAE, like all updated individuals in the world, know that ultimately everything is posted on social media and if their restaurant design stands out, then they have won the heart of the customer.

If you are planning to set up your own restaurant, then you must know that it is going to be a tough battle ahead to find your own niche in the food industry that exists in the UAE. But if you are on top of your restaurant design game, you are halfway done to becoming successful. Make sure that you consider the following restaurant interior design tips to take your eatery to a whole new level.

1. Seating Layout

Choosing the right chairs and tables is no easy feat, but they will ultimately set the style of your restaurant and add a much needed wow factor to your establishment. It has a lot to do with what kind of outlook look you really want for your restaurant. When deciding on furniture, consider the shape of the furniture and its quality the most. Round tables are conversation starters while rectangle and square ones are more functional and space-efficient.

When brainstorming restaurant interior ideas, weigh in on whether you want anchored seating or a portable one. In the former seating arrangement, furniture is attached to the floor or wall. The most common type of anchored seating includes booths.

Whatever you choose, ensure that the colour of your furniture complements other elements of your restaurant.

2. Proper Lighting

Many people don’t know it, but lighting plays a significant factor in enhancing the overall restaurant design.  With just the right lighting, you can hide all the flaws and highlight only the good elements like your furniture.

You can go for low lighting if you wish your restaurant to give out warm, cosier vibes but if you want your eatery to be lively and energetic, bright lighting is the way to go. Some modern restaurant lighting fixtures that you can go for are pendant lightings, LED lightings, track lightings, and recessed lightings.

For your restaurant interior to be more extravagant and romantic, we suggest elegant chandeliers. For a more traditional and vintage appeal, cool ceiling fans and wall lamps are a great idea.

3. Paint Texture, Wall Finishes, and Flooring

The third most important factor during your restaurant design planning includes the colour of your paint and the type of walls and flooring. Needless to say, the walls and flooring of your restaurant is the base of your restaurant interior design upon which all other elements are dependent.

· Flooring

For flooring, concrete happens to be the best option as it is durable and paintable. Another great option is tile flooring as it helps give the restaurant a more finished and luxe facade.

Tiles happen to be another most common and ideal flooring choice for restaurateurs due to their durability and strength. Go for porcelain tiles for the dining area, kitchen, and commercial bathroom. For a more timeless appeal, we’ll suggest you installing marble flooring. Both tiles and marbles can be a huge asset to your restaurant.

Remember that if you are opting for hard flooring – hardwood, vinyl, or laminate, install cushioning under it as it helps absorb the sound of shoes when people walk.

· Paint Texture

The paint colour or texture you choose should match or harmonize well with your flooring and furniture. You can find a wide range of paint styles ranging from a matte finish or a glossy finish to semi-matte paint to satin paint finish.

Your restaurant interior will look lavish if you opt for glossy paint finish. High-gloss paint not only helps with adding a plush factor to your eatery but it is also quite durable and low maintenance.

·  Themed Wallpapers

A better and more fun alternative to wall painting is installing themed wallpapers. If you have a particular theme in mind for your restaurant, then bring it to life via your high-end themed wallpapers. Just make sure that the wallpaper you choose speaks to you and adds a personal touch to your beautiful restaurant.

It will further help bring out the uniqueness in your restaurant interior.
