Excellent service and great food.
I had a risotto it was tasty and also the cocktails are delicious. 👍
Cafe Milano has a great Italian food and superb service. We had the tomato soup, pizza and the lamb chops, which was well-prepared. The team was very nice and helpful. Highly recommend for the fine dining.
Went there for a business lunch ...nice view and good selection of Italian food ...delicious food, great service and friendly atmosphere..Classy Italian restaurant
From the entrance Cafe Milano took our breath with the beautiful view! Patrizio da Roma was out host for the evening and he really took great care of us with top notch service! From food to desserts everything was just delicious and amazing! Patrizio also ensured our request to celebrate our friends Birthday was done perfectly with customized pastry with our friends name on the plate! We all really had an awesome time! Thank you!

Absolutely delicious!
we went there the last Saturday and surprisingly the has this amazing Friuli Venezia-Giulia Brunch.
there are so many good things about this Venue that y really do not know from where start.
the selection of cold starters was just enough to start the meal, delicate flavor, high quality of charcuterie and cold cuts; the panini and the pizza fritta were so light and tasty that after we ate them our appetite was more than ready for the next course: "hot starters'' the frittata with parmesan cheese is definitely something to highlight from the hot starter section, there were Spinach and leeks tortino which has a perfect cloudy texture and really balanced flavor, the Fagioli soup is a must if you go there! it really made me feel like if I was at home.
and finally; LA PASTA!! I no want to exaggerate but the home pasta was perfectly cooked, it is for much the best pasta I have ever tried in the UAE so far... the thinness of the ravioli will make you understand the truly Italian skills of the chef and his team, I will not describe how wonderful the flavor was because I do believe this one of those dishes that people must go to taste because any description of any ''blogger'' will have the right words to explain it. the ravioli came along with a long pasta with beef Ragu, the shape of the pasta was a kind of ''bugattini'' perfectly cooked as well, I will just say I'll be back soon to the brunch only to repeat at least 5 times that pasta.
if you think that is enough, well when we talk about Italian gastronomy never is enough: we got both main courses, the Goulash with polenta and the Black code, again the cooking method of the stew in the goulash, the flavor of the seasoning and the texture in the polenta take me back to home again. as a seafood lover, I was really excited waiting for the Black code so as the rest of the food was just extremely delicious I got really high expectation from the fish, so after the first bite, I confirmed the marvelous chef the have at Cafe Milano - Four Seasons Abu Dhabi. no more comments... unfortunately we could not finish the main courses as it was too much food for only two of us.
I've talked too much about the place already but it will be unfair if I finish this review without mentioning how good, professional and engaging staff they have at Cafe Milano, Mr. Patrizion was the Head Waiter on charge of our table, the service was smooth and we definitely felt we were served by a professional. overall the staff was smiling and well-groomed. I saw the sommelier serving a glass of chianti in one of the nearest tables and I could appreciate his skills and professionalism, I think we made as well our Aperol spritz so well done!! our table was approached by a gentleman who I think must be the GM or the Maitre, I made the quality check twice and even helped me with an issue a was having (lost my mobile in the taxi) so overall the experience was beyond the expectation.
I'd like to highlight that even though the Saturday brunch was amazing, this is a Restaurant that has more to offer to the public in general, is the right place to go for dinner and enjoy a lovely bottle of Franciacorta
I had great time with my friend she was the one invite me to this restaurant the staff was friendly and the the food very authentic try there pizza its very delicious thank you for that experience
@cafemilanoae - this #italian joint ticked all the right boxes for its #fivestar service at the gorgeous @fsabudhabi.

Lovely and satisfactory experience at cafe Milano.
I had the three course business lunch with my brother and we were both equally impressed and satisfied with the food, service, and ambience.
It’s definitely a place I would recommend to others and visit again.

Before visiting Café Milano at Four Seasons in Abu Dhabi I was convinced that one could not have a authentic Italian experience outside of Italy. This quickly changed right after I devoured the starter with the mind-blowing burrata with beautiful wild tomatoes and asparagus’s. I believe what I’ve had so far at any place hasn’t been burrata, except for the one today!
The starter was accompanied by the chefs special pasta dish with seafood. The main was very authentic in its character and the flavors were completely autonomous, almost getting hungry while describing this dish again.
To finish of this beautiful culinary experience, and once you think it can’t get any better, it just gets better. We were served with Tiramisu, probably the most extraordinary tiramisu I’ve had in my life too, and I’ve had many :). Words can not even describe the explosion of flavors which occurred putting the first spoon and sensing the flavors. Everything was rounded of with an Italian cup of cappuccino with almond milk.
I can now go back on my conviction and say that I have experienced the best Italian food outside of Italy!
Went for the Business Lunch and was very impressed. First of all, the service was the best I have experienced anywhere in Abu Dhabi - absolutely spot on, very attentive. The food was outstanding and the setting was wonderful. I will definitely be back.
When you dine at the Four Seasons you expect exceptional food, service and a large bill. But I was very surprised when having their business lunch on a weekday.
Great starter and the main course was a phenomenal cut of meat perfectly cooked, great service all for AED 100 (AED 135 for the 3 course). Incredible! Went back the next day for more. Absolutely consistent.
A big thank you to Patrick and his team for a job well done.
Oops. Almost forgot to mention the beautiful open layout with a great view.
Excellent service, beautiful view. Went today for the business lunch, we had the fish and chicken and they were both good. They were child friendly and very accommodating for my 5 year old. They offered to make him anything he’d like to eat and he got a scoop of ice cream at the end.
Valentine night dinner review:
Value for price 3
Food: 3.8
Service: 3
I took the set menue, 5 course food was good. Main dish we tried both options but the fish was way better than the lamp.
The service were not great, taking too much time to serve the tables and long wait time between courses.
I understand that it was a busy night but the place was not 100% full.
In the year since Cafe Milano opened at the Four Season’s Abu Dhabi, the Italian eatery has made quite the impression on diners in the capital. For Cafe Milano isn’t afraid to be different, forging its own unique path when it comes to Italian cuisine. Having dined at Cafe Milano a number of times in the twelve months since inception (though this actually marks the first time we’ve written about it), the dining room never fails to impress. Shunning the rustic trattoria style of decor that Abu Dhabi seems to love, we instead get an elegant and sophisticated space. A dining room of crisp white table linens, beautiful crockery and those unmissable waterside views taking full advantage of Cafe Milano’s island location. A seemingly ideal place to spend a lazy Saturday afternoon.
My visit to Cafe Milano in Abu Dhabi has been a long time coming! Having heard great things from foodie friends in the capital, I timed my reservation for an evening in early December. With absolutely beautiful dining room views (ask for a table overlooking the water for maximum romantic value), and a soundtrack that not only a) makes sense and also b) was played at the correct volume, this meal had all the hallmarks of a lovely evening. Warmly welcomed, for a Tuesday evening the restaurant was quite buzzy — a mix of holiday office parties and perhaps those at the Four Seasons to catch a glimpse of a particular famous football team in residence. Settling in, upon reviewing the menu, I appreciated a rotating list of specials so that diners can try old and new favorites alike.
The food was delicious. We tried the pastas and it melted in our mouths like fresh pasta is suppose to. I would recommend Cafe Milano to anyone staying on Al Maryah Island if they really are looking for amazing food. They service was very attentive and we left very happy with the experience.
Very good food and service. The dishes were cooked to perfection and the presentation was excellent. Was very quite allowing us some some fun time with the group. Very pricey though but worth a try.....
I had Mochaccino and hands down it's the best coffee mocha I had in Abu Dhabi , the service is quite friendly and they sure do put alot of love and effort on the ambience of the cafe.
Astonishing location in al Maryah promenade (Four Seasons), very elegant design, blended with a flawless service that along with the quality of the food was the perfect evening. I have to congratulate Chef Franco and the team to make my dinner experience the best one in Abu Dhabi. We repeated and have tried the brunch and is 100% recommendable. Cocktails amazing, best Bellini ever. Don't miss it!!!
This is what you call the perfect place .
The staff is more than lovely,the food is unbelievable ,the design is very unique and special,we ordered pasta with white sauce it was the best I've ever tried,and we got risotto which I liked very much,the pizza was the best in Abu Dhabi,and they've got a pears drink with soda which is ....you know what ? I won't say anything until you try it.
Before we had our food,they brought us a sample dish on the house,it was octopus with dried tomato,it was the closest food to Emarati food,and it was super delicious.
The desserts time has come,I ordered the Cassa which ricotta cheese cake,I tried the tiramisu and lemon and chocolate cake,the sweets makes you order it again and again.
I met the chief,he was very respectful,the staff will be there whenever you need them.
Don't ever hesitate to go grab a bite there.
Places like this are hard to find anymore!
Please keep doing what you do Cafe Milano team ...
The staff is super friendly and that's where it all starts. The human connection of the hospitality business seems to be fading away everywhere, but not here ... I was staying nearby and poked in on a friends recommendation to check the place out without the intention of eating at that hour but sure ended up staying for few drinks and some appetizers.
The decor, the ambience, the wines, and the food make it nothing short but of a fine A+ experience ... I'm bringing back more friends to this place.
Thanks for providing the best service and food quality in the UAE.
Visited Cafe Milano a couple of weeks ago for the Saturday Brunch.
The restaurant is really nice, the terrace completely opens up and created the impression that the whole restaurant is outdoor. The weather was nice that day so we really enjoyed that feature...
Food was very good. The saturday brunch concept consists of sharing antipasti and starters and pasta, and choosing 1 main course per person. Desserts where also to share, at which point we were completely full after the enormous amount of food served.
Service was attentive and quick.
Good value for money also...
Been there for dinner. Booking is quite easy and user friendly. The view is stunning as it is a semi opened restaurant. The service is good especially the manager who came to our table a few times during meal. Food wise is so-so. Main dishes are a bit too salty. The choice of dessert is a bit limited and no drink menu is available. Overall it is a good restaurant to visit.
If you love brunches, you must reserve a table at the next Cafe Milano’s Brunch Del Sabato. It’s a delectable Italian affair with beautiful views that will wow all your guests. My husband and I were invited to sample the menu last weekend and boy was I impressed! First off, with Four Seasons, of course everything is fancy! It’s decently priced too! Read on further about the details, pricing and what to expect.
Unique experience and a very well custom service. The veal cheek very tender and the linguini pasta is cooked to perfection, also the semi outdoor seating area is relaxing
Very elegant place. Service was amazing as everyone was polite friendly and fast. The ambience is great with big open windows and a beautiful view overlooking the water and Abu Dhabi Island. And the food we ordered was delicious (saffron risotto as well as the veal pasta). Definitely going back.
I am quite happy with this restaurant, finally a good Italian restaurant in Abu Dhabi well priced.
I have been at the restaurant few times, trying pastas and pizzas, and they are good. The menu is simple and easy to choose. The preparation is simple, with good balance to the ingredients, definitely is not an Americanized cuisine although the concept is originally from US. I think the main reason is the well prepared staff, majority are Italians including the chef that can add the right 'authentic' Italian touch to the food and service.
Ambience is refined but not intimidating, the view is probably the best as you can see sea and the city behind.
Definitely recommended, I hope the quality and prices remain the same in the future
