Having been to the Mediterraneo Restaurant last year we booked again for dinner earlier this month. The situation overlooks the dancing waters which in itself is a delight. The food presentation is a work of art and the culinary skills of the chef and his...colleagues is something extra special. The sous chef, Suraj Singh, remembered us from last year and took a personal interest in us……highly commendable. Our charming table waiter, we had a table for two outside, added to the pleasure of our evening. it was an evening we will long remember.More

A rather grandiose venue with tables lined up in a curve, surrounding the semi-open kitchen. Spacious dining area, comfortable sofas, liberal but not excessive usage of gold colour in both interior design and crockery. Luxurious but not boastful. Two set menus are available alongside the...a la carte food menu. The cocktail menu seems rather rudimentary for an 1 Michelin Star restaurant: mostly featuring simple cold infusions (presumably) and a handful of homemade syrup and cordials. Arguably lacking a bit of efforts. Decided to go with the full 8-course set menu. Excellent bread selection: the brioche stuffed with artichoke purée is phenomenal. Starting with a tart with brunoise mushroom and chestnut purée as amuse bouche. Crunchy, savoury, plus a touch of earthy sweetness. Lovely start. First course of the menu is a seasonal vegetable salad with buckwheat and pomegranate dressing. Spears of poached vegetables treated with a touch of vinegar, gorgeously plated on a bed of buckwheat. Highly artistic plate. Vitello & Tonno is served with a twist. Tuna tartare wrapped in a layer of slow-cooked topside veal. Caper powder dusted along the plate, a few dots of parsnip purée, sliced caper and frisée. Delicious. Risotto cooked with 36-month Parmigiano Reggiano, and a drizzle of vintage balsamic vinegar on top. Lovely. It’s exactly what you would expect from a restaurant at this calibre. Linguine pasta with sea urchin is outstanding. Bell pepper jus, oyster leaf on top. Perfectly savoury and rich. Astice lobster, lobster bisque reduction, finger lime, carrot purée, and a mille-feuille made with thin slices of carrots. Fantastic lobster bisque. Excellent dish. The meat main retained the same momentum: marinated lamb saddle, Jerusalem artichoke as both purée and sautéed brunoise, tarragon purée, and hazelnut lamb jus. Everything from the menu has been consistently great so far. Desserts are served on the terrace, overlooking the Burj Khalifa lake. Pre-dessert consists of citrus granita and orange segments. Typical refreshing pre-dessert and palate cleanser. Dessert is a sugar sphere filled with vanilla foam, violet crème brûlée, blackcurrant jelly and cassis sorbet. Not a very remarkable dessert. Delicious but not remarkable. A fantastic dining experience. The plating style and techniques are leaning more towards the old-school European style, and everything was executed perfectly. Outstanding culinary skills and top-notch service standards are to be expected from Armani Ristorante.More

This is the first time I have received such wonderful hospitality. I came here for dinner on my honeymoon from Japan. Not only the food and the view from the restaurant, but also the service from the staff was great. Money especially for the service...I was happy to not only be provided with food, but also to hear stories about the Japanese people from Mohey's home country. At the end of the dinner, I was guided to a seat overlooking the fountain show and was able to enjoy the show to my heart's content, and I was impressed by their thoughtfulness. Thank you very much for your wonderful hospitality.More

After Royal Gulf Tourism scammed us out of our money and dinner experience and almost ruined our first anniversary together, the Armani hotel was happy to take us in last minute. Special thank you to our server Sudath and all of the staff that night...who provided a first class experience from beginning to end. We were lucky enough to come on a night where their new seasonal menu launched. We tried the “Exclusive Journey” which was 7 course meal. Every meal was amazing. Towards the end of the dinner they asked us if we would like to sit outside on the balcony. We were able to enjoy the fountain show and our dessert to finish the night. Dinner was 10/10 and service was 11/10. Would highly recommend for special occasions or if you are looking for authentic Italian flavors.More

This was the first time we have dined at this restaurant and took a while to find this Italian restaurant, once inside the Armani Hotel. We started the evening with an appetizer. Unfortunately we asked to take it away, as it was eel with salad,...so the waiter brought an alternative dish. I ordered Minestrone soup, which the vegetables where nicely presented in the bowl, before the waiter poured the liquid soup into the bowl. Very enjoyable soup. This was followed by Wagyu A5 beer with a celeriac terrine and green pepper jus. We was offered to have our dessert and coffee outside to watch the foundation display, but decided to have our dessert inside, as it was still 39 degrees outside. For dessert I cant remember the name, but it started with a F. This dessert was an experience and it best to video the dessert. We then went outside to see the three minutes fountain display. Would we go back again, yes, within a heart beat.More
