It’s time to vote for your favourite restaurants in the capital.
After more than a decade of dining at restaurants across the Middle East, FACT has become the authority on restaurants in the region. This year, we will once again celebrate the best restaurants and bars at the FACT Dining Awards Riyadh 2025. Here’s everything you need to know.
Voting for the 2025 awards is officially open. This year’s FACT Dining Awards Riyadh 2025 will award 45 awards across 23 cuisine categories, covering more than 150 nominees. Eligible nominees will be contacted with details regarding the exclusive invite-only event in November.
