We (including my friends/colleagues) did not enjoy the food in this place. The service was slow and food served were not satisfying in quality and quantity. We would not recommend this for corporate gatherings and special events. The ambiance is just fine but there should be more to just the atmosphere.
We went for the Thursday dinner brunch/buffet and we were a big table. Unfortunately wasn’t the best experience. Service was very chaotic and I suppose it’s bound to happen due to the way they serve. They bring you small plates of food to share which is probably fine if you are 2-3 people. But on a table of 20 they brought 3-4 plates to share with 2-3 pieces of appetisers or small bowls of salad. How are you suppose share food served like this? Am I suppose to break aranchini balls in 2 to share with a friend? Atleast bring one serving per person to the table or just have a buffet so people can pick and choose what they want. The bartender constantly looked under pressure, couldn’t respond to what drinks were in the package because was so stressed out making drinks. I decided to have wine so that all he needs to do is pour and I don’t have to wait 10mins for service. Eventually they said we’ll serve drinks at the table, please ask the waiters.Waiters were so overwhelmed by the size of the table, served some people and not the others: some had cutlery some did not, poured drinks to 4, forgot about the rest. Served sushi to some and not to others. You constantly had to waive to waiters for attention. Eventually the mains arrived we got one serving of risotto and pasta between 4 people at the end who also did not have cutlery for dinner. When the waitress finally came with cutlery the food was cold (since we sat outdoors). A plate of chicken came 10 mins after and ofcourse in the meanwhile we finished the pasta and risotto which meant we were now eating chicken with no sides. I hope the meat arrived later because I just left the table. The meal was ruined, i was still hungry at the end of it and i hated eating mediocre food, served cold and haphazard.
This has got to be one of the worst restaurants (food wise) in dubai. The views are beautiful. The food is terrible. Our food arrived cold. The steaks were inedible. The calamari was something you would expect at a food court not a 5* restaurant. The pastas were awful. The only decent thing we ordered was the octopus. Overall an extremely disappointing night.
We enjoyed the Cosa Nostra Brunch. The cod fish was so good. The staff, Shakirah, did a great job.
The place to go if you are looking for a fine-dining restaurant with a stylish and modern touch. Food is high quality and well presented, don’t miss the wagyu beef carpaccio (the best I had in my life!). Interiors are beautifully decorated, all shades of black and gold, and the staff very attentive. There was music all night long but it was not too loud. I found it fairly priced and with 50% off on ladies night it is even more affordable. Will be back for sure when the weather allows to dine outdoor, the view from the terrace is stunning.
The worst Friday brunch! 295/395 dirham for few types of rolls, potato salad, watermelon salad and eggplants; main course: chicken breast, fish fillet, pasta and gravy beef stew with beens; dessert: few types of cake and pudding! Very disappointed!
Waste of time and money. It’s very poor branch very very limited selection there was two types of roles didn’t taste like sushi accept soya sauce let me cut it short food is below average.
