The World’s 50 Best Restaurants has just revealed its MENA’s 50 Best Restaurants 2026 list, and Saudi Arabia showed up strong. From Riyadh to Jeddah, three local restaurants earned their spot on one of the region’s most talked-about food rankings.

Kuuru (No.6)

The highest-ranking Saudi restaurant on the list this year is Kuuru (No.6) in Jeddah.

The open kitchen pulls you in, the menu keeps you curious, and the Japanese–Peruvian flavours make every bite interesting. This is the kind of place where you order more than you planned and don’t regret it.

Marble (No.12)

Marble (No.12) follows as one of Riyadh’s most solid and consistent spots.

What started as a simple roadside concept has grown into one of the city’s most respected restaurants, thanks to its focus on quality ingredients and perfectly cooked steak. The list praises Marble for keeping things straightforward and doing them exceptionally well.

Order the steak, keep it simple, and trust the kitchen.

Myazu (No.45)

Taking No.45, Myazu (Riyadh) rounds out Saudi Arabia’s presence on the list.

Known for its modern Japanese menu, Myazu balances technique and creativity with ease. The restaurant delivers polished dishes that feel refined but approachable, making it a go-to for anyone looking for a special meal without the formality.
