In the ever-evolving culinary world of Abu Dhabi, finding a steak that stands out from the rest can be a challenge. We’ve perfected the art of grilling with our signature Nuri Steak, made from the exquisite Chuck Flap cut. This is not just another steak; it’s a carefully crafted dish that embodies the perfect balance of flavour, tenderness, and a dash of Korean culinary magic. The Chuck Flap may not be as famous as ribeye or filet mignon, but for those in the know, it is a hidden treasure that offers a deeper, richer experience with every bite.
At Nuri Grill and Bar, we’ve dedicated ourselves to transforming this lesser-known cut into a culinary masterpiece. Here’s why Nuri Steak is the heart of our menu and the crown jewel of steak lovers in Abu Dhabi.
What Makes Nuri Steak Special?
The Chuck Flap comes from the shoulder area of the cow and is known for its marbling and beefy richness. Often underrated, this cut holds tremendous potential for creating an unforgettable steak experience when prepared with care and precision.
We treat the Chuck Flap with the respect it deserves. Our chefs select only the finest cuts, ensuring they are marbled to perfection, giving the steak a juicy, tender texture that practically melts in your mouth. But it’s not just about the cut of the beef—it’s about how we prepare it.
We enhance the natural flavours of the Chuck Flap with a special Korean-inspired marinade, a signature blend of soy, garlic, sesame oil, and a few secret ingredients that elevate the steak’s flavour profile. This marinade works wonders in bringing out the umami-packed richness of the beef while also adding a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor that is quintessentially Korean. The result is a steak that is both complex and utterly delicious, making each bite an experience to savour.
Grilling Perfection
Grilling is an art form. Our chefs have mastered the balance of heat and timing, searing the Chuck Flap to create a beautifully caramelised crust while ensuring the interior remains juicy and tender. Whether you like your steak cooked to a perfect medium-rare or prefer a more well-done finish, our team grills each piece with precision, ensuring every bite delivers an explosion of flavour.
The Nuri Steak is known for its bold, rich taste, enhanced by the way we sear the outside to lock in the juices and flavours. The marbling of the Chuck Flap means that as it cooks, the fat melts into the meat, giving it an irresistible succulence. And while the flavor is inherently robust, our Korean marinade complements the natural richness of the beef rather than overpowering it, allowing the essence of the steak to shine through.
The Art of Korean Flavour
What sets the Nuri Steak apart is our dedication to marrying traditional Korean flavours with the art of steak grilling. Our Korean-inspired marinade is what makes the Nuri Steak truly unique. Korean cuisine is renowned for its balance of sweet, savoury, and umami flavours, and our marinade embodies this harmonious blend.
Soy sauce adds depth, garlic brings a pungent sweetness, and sesame oil adds a subtle nuttiness that elevates the entire dish. We also incorporate a hint of sweetness and a secret mix of spices, which rounds out the flavour, ensuring that each bite is a journey through layers of taste.
This Korean influence allows us to create a steak experience that is unlike any other in Abu Dhabi. It’s not just about the beef—it’s about how every ingredient works together to enhance the meat’s natural qualities, offering a new and exciting take on what a steak can be.

While many steak restaurants in Abu Dhabi offer premium cuts, Nuri Steak offers an experience. From the moment your Chuck Flap hits the grill to the last bite you take, the journey is one of texture, flavour, and culinary satisfaction. The balance between the melt-in-your-mouth tenderness of the steak and the bold, vibrant flavors of the marinade keeps diners coming back again and again.
Our Nuri Steak is versatile in how it can be enjoyed. Whether you’re looking for a simple, classic steak experience or want to indulge in something a little more adventurous, we cater to all preferences. For those seeking a personalised meal, our chefs are happy to recommend side dishes and sauces that will complement your steak, enhancing the flavour without overshadowing the star of the plate—the Chuck Flap itself.
