A.O.K. Kitchen Expands with Second Location in Historic Diriyah

Launched in 2022, A.O.K. Kitchen quickly captured hearts and appetites with its wellness-focused dining. Now, fuelled by its immense popularity, the brand is expanding, announcing its second Saudi Arabian location in Riyadh's Zallal Diriyah, set to open in April 2025, just three years after its initial KAFD success.

 

Chef Nikolas Mataragkas brings his exceptional culinary expertise to the new A.O.K. Kitchen location—re-introducing signature favourites alongside innovative new creations. A.O.K. Kitchen operates under the belief system that everyone deserves a superior dining experience regardless of their dietary needs. A.O.K. Kitchen has given Riyadh's culinary scene a facelift through its chic sugar-free dining options along with its careful consideration of dairy and gluten ingredients. The restaurant continues to establish itself as a sought-after place for wholesome-yet-extraordinary dining.

 

The new 78-seat venue seamlessly integrates A.O.K. Kitchen’s contemporary design with Najdi architectural elements to establish a distinct dining atmosphere that respects Diriyah's historic environment. Saudi interior designer Maha Alsudiri has skilfully created a space that honours the restaurant's existing identity while incorporating elements of local cultural heritage to form a refined blend of modern and traditional design.

 

Guests can choose to dine indoors or alfresco at the Zallal Diriyah site. The to-go counter provides a convenient service point for customers desiring A.O.K.'s healthy selection’s scrumptious offerings on the move. Chef Nikolas with his highly decorated credentials will manage both locations while maintaining the high culinary standards that define the A.O.K brand.

 

A.O.K. Kitchen’s prime principle of conscious cuisine remains steadfast in the expansion of their culinary offerings. Refined sugar-free dishes remain a priority for the restaurant along with its extensive gluten-free and plant-based options and ongoing local supplier partnerships. Their commitment to homegrown talent and sustainable practices mirrors Diriyah's development plan for becoming a cultural and lifestyle destination.

 

The new A.O.K. Kitchen will be ready to welcome guests at their new location in April 2025. Visitors can experience the balance of healthy indulgence within a setting that combines modern wellness while simultaneously harbouring the Saudi heritage.
