Great venue, amazing food. Especially the Pizzas. The only issue is that it can get very hot and humid. I hope they get to sort the AC problem out.

Went for the grand opening. BIG turnout, great ambiance. This was a buffet to celebrate the opening, food was superb - great roast beef, eggplant parmigiana the way its supposed to be. This is going to be a great restaurant, in an area that needs a great place. Cant wait to go back.

Dolci & Capricci is the best bar-restaurant I have tried so far in Abu Dhabi. It is very cozy with an amazing atmosphere to have a drink and meet people.I tried several of their offerings, with the best cocktail of them beint Dark Violet. It was served by their incredible waiter here called Dillon, his service is unmatched and is a major part of what made me a regular here.An easy 5/5 rating.

A great little restaurant and licenced bar! Robots deliver food to your table - which ,btw is very tasty and good quality. Smoking and free pool table upstairs. Just need to get some laminated/sterilisable menus as the QR code does not work!! At this point the waitress did not know what to do except repeating use the QR code, used the QR code like some kind of dullard! Otherwise I would have awarded 5*s.

First thing I’ve noticed was the smell of tobacco, I asked, and they told me there is an area for smoking people, as a non smoker, I don’t recommend this place, also 50 aed for a salad…a bit expensive I reckon, and the “robot“ bringing you the food, well, looks like a huge hover rather than a robot.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!I’ve been to dolci&capricci with my husband yesterday and I must say that the ambiance and the food was just amazing! We were very surprised to be welcomed by a robot (pepino).We ordered fried calamari ,pizza margherita, and risotto.The calamari were crispy out and soft inside, the pizza was full of nice flavours and the risotto tasted just as the risotto we had once in Milano.We loved it and we will be definitely going back to visit with our friends!

Very disappointing last night - ordered a margarita pizza and beef tagliata - waitress explained the beef came with mashed potato and we requested to switch this for fries - no can do was the reply - we asked for the manager who also said that the chef would not allow us to change the potatoes. We insisted as my husband wanted fries steak and beer. Lots of long conversation with the assistant manager (who was lovely) and said the chef (after she went to speak with him) could not change the potato element. Dish arrived and fries had been switched in, but the moment was lost as we had to fight too long and hard for such a simple thing. The mushroom sauce had a distinct Asian flavor with ginger - strange for an Italian meal and chef - Pizza was ok but a large pizza with only 2 small pieces of fresh (cooked) basil - the place has had a quick and cheap rework from Jim’s Kitchen and it was noisy and a gimmicky-robot brings the meals to the table - too much choice in Abu Dhabi fortunately and we won’t be going back here. Assistant manager did a good job, but sensing the place has general management/chef issues and hugely inflexible to the customers requests.

Very ashamed, as italian, to go to an allegedly italian restaurant and find such bad quality food.Pasta Carbonara that would make an Italian cook scream for lack of respect of the real Italian receipe.A chicken caesar salad with boiled ... grey colored poor quality chicken, iceberg salad coming out of a supermarket pre packed plastic bag and a caesar sauce on the side ... that stayed on the side because did not even deserved to be put on the salad.Very disappointed... not going back...

Had one of the best meals I’ve had in Abu Dhabi yesterday nightFrom the food, to the service to the ambiance- everything was flawless. From the moment you step In the restaurant , you know it’s going to be a pleasant experience; the decor of the restaurant is very aesthetically pleasing, the staff are very accommodating showing you around, and even the scent is amazing.Food was impeccable: so flavorful, fresh, with a wide variety of options suiting adults and kids . Me and my friends couldn’t stop commenting with each bite how great the food was. Meal favorites was the Burrata , the risotto, pizza , and calamari fritti , but every single item we ordered was devoured with relish.Highly highly recommend- service was also faultless, very friendly staff and they serve alcohol , they were very accommodating to making any adjustments to items for allergies. Literally nothing but praises for this restaurant, grateful for having found a place like this!

Finally at Simens building a respectable restaurant, wonderful bread that I ate this morning buying a baguettes. Elegant restaurant full of tradition and innovation on the kitchen. I ordered a pizza, which I must say is the first one I eat between Dubai and Masdar that can be called Italian pizza. Great taste, great extra virgin olive oil, heady basil scent, and not like all the pizza they try to imitate around between Abudabi and around Dubai. My companion takes some gnocchi alla sorrentina and the Vucciria ... extraordinary combination of taste and design. Finally the flavor of a tomato combined with real olive oil. Brilliant as tradition is combined with taste. Then I order a pizza for home to take away and we eat it in the evening ... always soft and extraordinary. Great satisfaction for having found ourselves for lunch. We will return because the chef is extraordinary. we met him and he promised us a personal tasting of his dishes. Thanks for this great food experience.

Have been to this restaurant on two separate occasions and the food was abundant and extremely delicious. We had the arrancini, eggplant parmiggiana and canolli. The food arrived on time and it exceeded our expectations. The staff was nice and attentive and had good knowledge of the menu. The ambiance is like nothing else in Abu Dhabi - at the entrance we were greeted by Pepino, an android who answered pretty much any question we asked him, danced and even took different selfies with us. There were also two cat robots bringing the food! My favorite seating area is upstairs where they have an arcade game for kids to play with and a pool table for us to enjoy.

Went on Saturday and it was quite a disappointment - salmon farfalle didnt see salmon even from a distance - it was just a pasta full of cream, pizza oily and soggy in the middle...That they have been little slow and confused I would understand, but quality of food was far from what I expected... not my kind of place

Do not order the risotto!!!Paid 80aed for the risotto Pescatore (seafood) and what I got was half kilo of raw rice with 2 shrimps! An absolute ripe off! I talked to the waiter and he said that once the company I work for gets me a discount, I shouldnt complain. Tried to talk with the chef and he was extremely rude and didnt accept the feedback. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere but the food and the staff are very bad. I will not go back. If you want a good risotto go down the stairs to II Café di Roma.
