All the things coming to 1364AH in DQ (and all the things already open)
The up-and-coming complex has a lot to offer…
In Riyadh, restaurants and stores tend to cluster together in massive outdoor complexes (as we’re sure you’ve noticed). And the latest one to add on to the list is the luxury complex 1364AH. Located in the Diplomatic Quarter (DQ), this brand-new complex is the place to be.
Here is your ultimate guide to all the things coming to 1364AH in DQ.
Cipriani Dolci

We’re huge fans of the upscale Italian restaurant Cipriani at Hittin in Riyadh. So, imagine our delight upon finding out that the team behind it is opening a more relaxed little sister restaurant – Cipriani Dolci. While we don’t yet have an official opening date, we do know that this debut destination in Riyadh will be located within the 1364AH complex in the Diplomatic Quarter. The concept is a luxurious take on the Italian Pasticceria. So, expect all the good things you’d expect to eat. Think decadent favourites from torta di cioccolato and ice cream freshly whipped to order to lemon tart, tiramisu and more. And of course, a must-try at all Cipriani is the vanilla meringue cake, which tastes like a warm hug from Nonna.
Cafe L’Occitane

When you think of L’Occitane, the first thing that comes to mind would probably be lotions formulated with natural, delicious sweet-smelling ingredients like lavender, almond and shea butter. But the French beauty brand is more than just its array of au naturale beauty products. In fact, L’Occitane has a café that serves up delicious French-inspired dishes. If you’ve ever had the opportunity to visit its cafés in Shibuya, Paris, or Dubai, you’re in for a treat because L’Occitane Café is finally coming to Riyadh.
Laderach

We don’t know about you, but we definitely love ourselves some chocolate. And with Swiss chocolate company Laderach moving into the complex too, it’s safe to say all of our chocolatey cravings will be satisfied too.
Ralph’s
It’s time to treat yourself to something a bit more bougie, and we’ve got just the fix. Set to make its Saudi Arabia debut, Ralph’s Coffee – fashion brand Ralph Lauren’s chain of luxe cafés – will be opening its very first Riyadh location, with not just one store, but two. Representing the brand’s timeless American spirit with a fresh, bright, and authentic atmosphere, Ralph’s Coffee is set to open at the new 1364 complex in the Diplomatic Quarter and in the heart of King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD).

The Lighthouse
Establishing itself as a vibrant hub in Dubai where all foodie, retail, and culture-focused experiences blend together in the most seamless way, The Lighthouse first opened its doors back in 2017. Founded by Hashem Montasser and Hany Bassiouny, the concept is inspired by Virginia Woolf and the other Bloomsbury Group members. The Riyadh venue is also set to open its doors soon.

Kayanee
Don’t call it a gym. Don’t call it a social club. The recently opened homegrown brand Kayanee in Riyadh’s Diplomatic Quarter is an entirely new concept dedicated to enhancing women’s well-being and lifestyle. Kayanee (which translates to ‘my being’) prioritises mental, physical, and social health to help women find the balance between what the mind wants and what the body needs

nua
Inspired by keeping the true heritage of Saudi Arabia alive, nua puts its focus on the humble date. The word “Nua” is derived from the Arabic term “Al Nawa,” the core or heart of the fruit, the focal point from which all growth and journey begins, aptly named as dates have been the beating heart of Saudi Arabia. Take a bit.
