Gault&Millau's review 2026

Naya at Voco Riyadh presents a contemporary interpretation of Lebanese cuisine within a modern, wood-focused interior. Indoors, the space is warm and soothing, with private seating and low lighting, while the outdoor terrace overlooks the pool. The décor is clean and minimal, incorporating subtle regional touches such as arabesque curtains and ceiling motifs, creating a restrained yet elegant environment. The menu features a selection of classic Lebanese dishes, from hot and cold mezze to salads, grills and mains. Khameer-style bread, topped with nigella seeds and served warm, is light and fluffy, complemented by a creamy labneh. Lentil soup is comforting and well-spiced, with depth of flavor and balanced use of cumin. Muttabal variations, including beetroot and zucchini, are simple but effective, emphasizing the quality of ingredients over decorative presentation. Overall, dishes are thoughtfully prepared, focusing on ingredient integrity and clear, clean flavors rather than visual flourish. Naya offers a straightforward menu with comforting flavors.
