We saw the reviews and we decided to dine in. The service is good, they welcome you with bread and olive paste. We tried the potatoes, tomatoes soup and pizza. We think it is average to good quality food. The prices are slightly more expensive than an average restaurant. What made me give them 4 stars is because the service was very good and the waiters were very responsive.

I have been dining at this restaurant at least once a week for the last month, so I almost tried everything on the menu. If you think its another Italian restaurant, you will be surprised. Super delicious and inventive dishes, pleasant atmosphere and extremely attentive and experienced staff. The dishes in the photos are to die for: Tagiatelle Alla Monica Bellucci, Spaghetti al Nero di Seppia con Gamberi e Zucchine

In this restaurant, I regularly eat GREAT pizzas (really great: much better than many “famous” places) at an affordable price. I am sure the owner is Italian... Staff is very nice and helpful

I always order their Tomato and Basilico pizza, which, in my opinion is the best pizza in the UAE. Recently visited the branch in Motor City and was surprised, it was cozy and simple. Staff was very friendly, Mary attended me and I decided to try their pasta and dessert, everything was great. Good food and display on point!Highly recommended as Im a happy regular customer!

Definitely a come back place. Delicious calzone, balanced soup, great service team. Could be a bit cheaper. Does not have ambience for those prices- old furniture, dust, some music from youtube. But we came to eat and food and service were great.

Very good pizza (especially pizza Napoli), but lasagna on this particular occasion was very bad - frozen in the middle. When it was returned to the kitchen it was microwaved and included in the bill.Pasta is ok.

I just loved it... The 🇮🇹 Italian cuisine in very original taste.For Italian food in Dubai.. It is one of the best.In this restaurant 🍴 I advise to try the home made pasta.. Specially Cannelloni di Funghi Radicchio e Ricotta in Salsa Rosa it is my best choice.

Pizza is alright (not the best) . . . It was way too thin and super crusty all over (not only from the sides) . . . Manager did not handle feedback well . . . Would not visit back.

Very pleased with this restaurant. We knew things were going to be good when a happy Italian family was seated next to us enjoying their meal. The food was delicious and the service was consistent, friendly and helpful. Our server was fantastic. Not something we find often here. Every dish was from very good to excellent. I particularly liked the gnocchi with Gorgonzola. Oh, and fair prices for pricey Dubai. Will be back.

Nice service, outdoor plants and decor nice, its also nice to be on the roadside so you have nice atmosphere of people walking past.. But in the summer months Im not sure how comfortable it would be to sit outside. Food a bit bland.

Review №39

A truly disappointing and regrettable culinary experience..The service and professionalism of the servers was good, but that can never overcome the terrible food that we were served..We ordered four different dishes, and we were not able to enjoy almost any of them..One of them (a meat steak dish) had a very pungent rotting-ish odour that I immediately noticed as they kept it on our table. We had to return it, as all five of us at the table agreed that something was definitely very wrong with it.Another meat pasta dish was also very off and smelled and tasted very wrong.We were truly dissatisfied and let down and we will never be coming back here..

Im 100% Italian, so I know great Italian food has to be made fresh, made in-house, with traditional ingredients- and is has to be made with Love.Their Pizzas are incredible ( my fave is the Salmon Pizza)- but I am telling you these people do Italian right. I challenge anyone in Dubai to make a better Pizza- there is no equal I know youll love this place. The sauces, the dough, the pastas, all made fresh from scratch. The best Italian food in Dubai. Period.

One of my favourite Italian restaurants that seems to have lost its edge during its expansion drive. I miss the passion in their cooking, the pasta sauces Just dont taste the same, the portion sizes have become slightly smaller. Each time i visit i keep asking why i keep coming back and then get reminded of its early days, the great days. Hopefully they will get the mojo back.

We went it as a huge group and hence I am willing to make concessions. The service was slow, but thats not what I disliked. The food was simply too flavourless. Everything. Never ever going back, dont recommend this to anyone who likes Italian food.

We forgot to take photos but we got tomato soup and onion potato soup and for main course a salmon dish (with vegetables) and sea bass (comes with roasted potatoes), service is excellent, fast and always attentive to any request before you even ask them, manger was very friendly and attentive. The dish for me the best was onion potato soup (although some people may not like onion taste but I love taste of fried onion) and the sea bass freshly cooked and yummmm

Review №65

Okay is the only word that comes to mind. The arancini was tasteless. The calamari appetizer was just fine. The place was empty on a Thursday night, but we thought, what the hey, we’re new in this neighborhood, let’s check it out.I’ll say now: the staff was pleasant, but it’s not like they had much other choice. The food was again, just okay. They have this big, beautiful kitchen, walls covered with photos of the Colosseum and olives and other vaguely Italian paraphernalia. But one little Italian granny in a kitchen a quarter of the size could make food ten times better.There are a lot of five star reviews here that are not deserved. If anyone is seriously suggesting this is passable as decent Italian food, they’ve never had Italian food. Go to Carluccio’s. You’ll spend more, but also enjoy it more. Instead, this is fake Italian, and for over 200 dirhams, I expected better.I will add, as a disqualifier, that we didn’t order the pizza. Maybe that would have been okay, but if it was like anything else on the menu, it would have only been just that.

Run by Francesco Daswani, the restaurant is amazing with beautiful decor and the food is unique with authentic Italian taste. I love Italian food and its very rare I find an Italian restaurant like this with authentic Italian food.I absolutely fell in love with their italian pizza served with chilli sauce. I would highly recommend their pizzas, tiramisu desset and spaghetti . The chef is a sweetheart and they have really garnered enough fame in a matter of one year thanks to their amazing service and delicious taste . A must try when in Dubai !
