Mandilicious restaurant introduced to Saudi Arabia

Mandilicious LLC, the world’s first fast-service restaurant that serves authentic, traditional Mandi and similar Arabian dishes, recently expanded into Saudi Arabia, thanks to its partnerships with Raddah Investment.

The first Mandilicious outlet opened in the Al Hamdaniyah district in Jeddah. Two more outlets will open in June and July, at the Aziz Mall and the Al Salaam Mall.

Mandilicious was originally established in 2013. It offers slow-cooked, traditional Arabian cuisine in the style of a fast-service food court setting. It is a company that was home-grown in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). The restaurant is quickly becoming a worldwide brand, as it has now opened franchises in Oman, Qatar and Kuwait, in addition to its previous franchises throughout UAE.

Raddah Investment is a branch of Raddah Holdings; the firm is a pioneering investment company based in Saudi Arabia, with a diverse portfolio of investments. It has been crucial to opening the six Mandilicious outlets now based in western Saudi Arabia.

“We are pleased to announce that with the help of Raddah Investment, Mandilicious is now opening its doors in one of the strongest markets of the region -- a region that is both influential and knowledgeable of our cuisine,” Fayez Al Nusari, CEO and founder of Mandilicious, said. “The Mandilicious menu represents the diversity of the ‘Cuisine of Arabia’ from all countries of the peninsula.”
