We have been coming to ristorante since 2013 but have never had service worse than now. Please close the restaurant again. Absolutely terrible. <br/><br/>Great job ruining the place!

Wonderful experience in dubai. A dream place everting is Perfect here. Can’t wait to come back again. One of my best places ever. Love it.

What a SPECIAL place for a romantic dinner this is! if you want fine Italian head here! The Lobster Spaghetti are to die for and in general food presentation, service and ambience are 5 star!

Already an established Italian icon, Armani extends its reaches into Dubai with Armani Hotel.<br/><br/>The luxury property features Armani Ristorante, a restaurant specializing in traditional Italian cuisine with spaghetti, Branzino and risotto dishes.<br/><br/>Armani Ristorante frequently offers a seasonal menu and includes a private dining room for intimate meals.<br/><br/>

One of the best restaurants in Dubai. The food is amazing. Specifically, the burrata Tartufo, risotto Tartufo, and the tiramisu. They had a large selection of amazing wines too. Highly recommended to try it

We had an amazing evening, the best pasta you can think of . it was customized as per our request, later we enjoyed sipping tea on the deck with the most amazing views of the dubai fountains. strongly recommend

An italian restaurant with nice design that creates romantic dinners. I found the menu basic but the food is delicious. I can recommend the burrata, selection of starters like oysters and beetroot plate and salad. They like to create a story for each plate sometimes very interesting to try.

Everything about this place is perfect.<br/>Great ambiance and the service was excellent..<br/>Great to visit with friends<br/>Food is up to the mark.. loved it and will surely come back to visit soon.

<br/>BEST PASTA I’VE EVER HAD.<br/>The chitarra spaghetti, lobster and creamy bagnavcauda sauce is probably one of the most memorable dishes of my life. <br/><br/>Overlooking the ever fascinating Dubai Fountain, Armani Ristorante is every epicureans (esp. Italian food lovers) dream come true. <br/><br/>Elegant setting, graceful & prompt service and absolutely delicious food. This is as exquisite as it gets. <br/><br/>Started with the infamous Organic egg 64 degrees, with robiola (Italian soft cheese) and crisps bread. Can savor this dish forever. Also enjoyed on the beef tartare and tuna tataki, superb!<br/><br/>For mains, did I mention the chitarra spaghetti? PERFECTION. I WOULD EAT IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. <br/>We also tried the tagliatelle with veal ragu and gremolata. <br/><br/>Desserts, the modern twist on a tiramisu, my initial thought (for a tiramisu snob like me): blasphemous. Took me one bite and I was sold. Two people, three desserts is not uncommon on our table so there was also the dark chocolate mousse with cocoa sponge & milkshake sauce. But the LA SFERA is a MASTERPIECE : from the moment it arrives on the table (beware, you will ogle), to the moment you tuck into the sphere and the actual realization of what you’ve actually just tried. It is phenomenal! <br/><br/>If there were just two dishes on the menu, Spaghetti and LA SFERA, I would still be a happy (& regular) customer. <br/><br/>The entire experience takes time, soak it in. This meal will stay with you for a long long time. <br/>

Amazing restaurant, fine Italian cousine from Chef Federico Sanna.<br/><br/>Breathtaking views of burj khalifa and elegant athmosphere. <br/><br/>Great value for money

This Restaurant surely lives up to the name it holds. Very professional and friendly staff. Simple, yet elegant decor and you can enjoy a full view of the kitchen where all thr magical things happen. We enjoyed all the plates that were served and wished that these plates did not finish. We had the following g dishes:<br/><br/>Granchio<br/>Spaghetti alla chitarra<br/>Baccala<br/>Creme brulee<br/>Tiramisu<br/>

We had our hotel to help us book Armani Ristorante for a romantic dinner. I forgot the name of the Russian girl floor manager she was amazing with a great interpersonal skill. She served us throughout most of our meal. We had a great chat with her as well. She also presented a lovely rose for my wife as it was our honeymoon trip to dubai.<br/>The food was amazing with a generous serving size. The food was packed full of flavour. Big thank you to the chef who made this experience memorable.<br/>Thank you Massimo and your team. I highly recommend everyone to try Armani Restorante if you have a chance.<br/>

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm just taste the truffle seven course menu... if still serving. Sorry folks if it’s not serving any more..... nice decor, good wine list and the service is great. Worth every penny...

a calm restaurant<br/>very friendly staff<br/>pasta was very delicious and the chef himself came and served it. <br/>a romantic atmosphere, perfect for a date night.

My husband booked this restaurant unbeknownst to me as surprise for my birthday. What a fantastic experience it was!<br/><br/>To start off, the location in the Burj Khalifa is exciting and you can go out on the balcony for a great view of the Dubai Fountains. Add to this a live singer serenading diners, sophisticated decor, excellent staff and amazing chefs and you have a night you won’t soon forget on your hands. <br/><br/>This is true fine dining. While many restaurants in Dubai charge like fine dining, not all deliver the kind of service to match. Armani Ristorante is the exception. All of our waiters, the manager and even the head chef here made us feel welcome throughout the night. They wished me happy birthday numerous times and made sure we were always happy. They even spoiled me with a surprise rose and special birthday sphere dessert, both of which were complimentary. We were chuffed to say the least. <br/><br/>The seating also makes it feel very private and like you are the only coupling dining - but in a good way.<br/><br/>There were a few veggie options on the menu but we were also assured that the chef would modify any dishes for us to make them vegetarian, which was nice. We ended up having a bit of a cheese extravaganza (hooray!) - a cheese board and truffle burrata for starters, and for mains the fregola and tortelli. All were absolutely delicious and amazing. After dessert we were even spoiled with some complimentary chocolates. What a sweet end to a wonderful evening!<br/><br/>I would highly recommend Armani Ristorante for any special occasion. You won’t be disappointed in the slightest.

The location is in Burj Khalifa with an incredible terass overviewing the fountain show.<br/>The restaurant has an amazing design and it feels very big and luxorius. When we visited there were live dinnermusic. <br/>The service and food were great and they kept it genuine Italien with italien chefs, waiters and singers. Amazing experiance!

Beautiful romantic Italian restaurant located in centre of Dubai! A fine dining Italian restaurant worth trying! How can any one not love Italian Food :) The place speaks for itself! Would definitely go again!

It’s ok when we went to restaurant it’s look like people is running here and their but hostess was kind enough who shown everything to us as the food was good but choices is very ordinary it’s not looking at all you are in Armani ... I believe instead of feeding to people they suppose to focus on luxury ....

Experience! Food is amazing. They have some really amazing wines. The solo singer is as good as you’d experience at a live show. For best experience - get the seating next to the fountain. The outdoor seating lounge is fantastic! <br/>Stakes are highly recommended. So is the Seabass grill.<br/><br/>Definetely a must go and to do dine in experience in Dubai.<br/><br/>Cheers,<br/>Pollyz

If you wonna have the best salmon just head there, can’t talk about service as it is one of the best in Dubai! <br/>The Chef himself came to present his dish and explained about the sweet.<br/>It was a memorable experience

Fine dining Italian at its best, located in the tallest building of the world Burj Khalifa, with magnificent views of the Dubai fountain. Grand decor that you expect from a fine dine experience. <br/>Service is excellent from greeting to goodbye feel welcomed & pampered. Chef came to table , spoke to us and tried our food to b Accor to our taste. <br/>Food was Devine in terms of taste & presentation. We loved Spaghetti lobster and Tiramisu. <br/>Economically it’s on higher side but you get what you pay for. <br/>Must experience when in Dubai. <br/><br/>

Fine dine Italian at its best. Exquisite food with magnificent views of the Dubai fountain. The Ambience is every bit that you expect from a fine dine experience. The hotel itself is avant garde decor and the service is on the ball.

First time in Armani ristorante.<br/>Fine dinning Italian restaurant.<br/>Great location, in burj Khalifa lobby luxurious and has a balcony where you can sit outside and watch the fountains, look up and you see the tallest building in the world.<br/>Service was excellent, friendly waiters super helpful, they offered us complimentary items and helped us with choosing the food.

Armani Ristorante is a great experience in Dubai. It is so well made, lit, decorated, placed, that makes any evening a special one. From the greetings to the goodbyes one feels pampered, welcomed, appreciated. The chef's welcome was gaspatcho with prawns and it was fresh and really delicate. The bread choice was amazing and the goat cheese bread is enough to make one stop there and just enjoy it. We started with the capesante and the gamberi and - again - flavors and appearances were awesome. Our mains - lobster spaghetti and duck - were excellently cooked and wonderfully presented. We had no space for desserts, but this is something to expect for our next visit. The ones offered by the chef were like small gems. Definitely this is not an economy restaurant but, there is no doubt that you get what you pay for. Two points that could have made this perfect dinner even better : We were impressed by the fact that though the chef kept visiting all tables for a brief chat with customers (something tehat we always consider the highest level of dinning hospitality), he never came to our table. The table cloth was worn, something unacceptable for this level of a restaurant. Yes, details do matter and these points are just the over of over-and-above that the restaurant can offer.

One of the best restaurants i have ever visited in Dubai, located in the Armani hotel. The design of the store is very impressive but simple, the level of the service is really high and the food was exceptional. We were a bit disappointed that the chef did not come to our table so we did not have the chance to tell him how good the food was. We started with the Capesante and the gamberi and as mains we enjoyed the Lobster spaghetti and duck. The food was devine in terms of taste, texture, and presentation, the restaurant was respectively quite so the night was really enjoyable. However, in a restaurant like this, the tablecloth is not acceptable to be torn.... Overall, one of the best restaurants of the city.

My last date night was at the Armani Hotel. Can you believe we enjoyed this fine dining Italian restaurant more than any of the restaurants we ate at in Italy earlier this year??. There are so many reasons to like this place. 1) The staff in the kitchen are from all over Italy – Alba, Puglia, Sardinia and too many other places for me to recall. 2) The assistant restaurant manager is soooo passionate about the restaurant – he’s been there since pre-launch, and, though he’s not Italian by nationality, he’s definitely Italian in spirit. 3) It’s fine dining quality with a relaxed vibe – perfect for date night! 4) They have a cracking terrace, perfect tor aperitifs, with a great view over the Dubai Fountain. 5) If you have kids, you can still enjoy. They’ll accommodate you and your bambinos in a quieter part of the restaurant. And until September up to two kids under 10 will even dine with you for free! 6) Inventive flavours and fine ingredients like their colourful purple potato chips and their pink beetroot risotto. 7. The throwback to the bygone times in Italy where, when dining with a man, women get a menu without pricing.

Very beautiful view of the whole Dubai, smooth service (not pushy) , food was very tasty and the way they presented their food was mind blowing , definitely an experience/place i will never forget.

We had the tasting menu with wine pairing and everything was amazing. Every single dish was perfect. The staff is very attentive and because it was special occasion they brought out a little cake and a white rose. You also get to see dancing fountain from most tables.

I was very excited to be there, view was absolutely beautiful , service was also good but i don't know why but food was average at best (for that price ) that's why I'm giving 3.5 maybe my expectations were too big.

There's always a great sense of occasion when visiting the Armani Hotel, and that's heightened when visiting its signature restaurant – Armani/Ristorante.

Amazing place with a fantastic view of dubai fountain, perfect place for romantic dinner, came here for my birthday surprise dinner and was totally amazed by service received from the beginning to end of my evening there. Special thanks to Shami who looked after is very well, he was very polite friendly with good product knowledge. He has managed to take his time for us to tour around the wine cellars, which was really worth having a look at it. <br/>Thank you soooo much for ur effort to make my birthday a memorable one.<br/>Hope to see u again 👍

This is the best Fine Dining Italian in Dubai (this is far from the same concept of Roberto's, another great Italian in Dubai).<br/><br/>The food is beautifully prepared and service is great too!<br/><br/>I came to this restaurant to celebrate an important date and the service provided along with the food quality were great.<br/><br/>There's a open kitchen in the restaurant so you can see the interaction of the chefs.<br/><br/>We had some prawns on truffles as amuse bouche.<br/> <br/>Then had some scallops as a starter which were very well cooked and seared.<br/><br/>As a Main had some meat which was final prepared in front of me in a trolley along with pan seared foie gras. Very well cooked and well done. Just though the side dishes were nothing special.<br/><br/>My college had a mushroom risotto which was very rich with beautiful smell of truffle. I'm a huge fan of mushroom risotto and have to admit that is not easy to great mushroom risottos, but this is one of them definitely.<br/><br/>The desert was a sphere ball which is something really really special. This sphere comes in a plate on a red berries puree. After you cut / open the sphere theres another sphere inside. After inside of that sphere thats a great red berries sauce with great berries, perfectly ripped. In between the different layers of the spheres that some light cream.. When you eat it all together is like heaven in your mouth.<br/><br/>One of the greatest desserts I've tried, both in flavor / taste as well as originality.<br/><br/>As conclusion, Armani Ristorante delivers great food and with great consistency.<br/><br/>Congratulations for the Pastry Team of the restaurant / hotel because along this and other desserts I've tried in Armani Dubai, those are some of the best in the dining scene in Dubai

The #ristorante @armanihoteldxb is one the places in dubai that gives u the experience of a Michelin starred place, from service ,food and presentation.<br/>My favorite part of the meal was the appetizers and middle dishes :)<br/>

Amazing fine dinning experience with Truffle Degustation menu and vine paring. All new bar menu with new cocktails and drinks. Excellent and friendly staff making your stay always unforgettable

The food, the decor, the service is always very good. The burrata was so fresh and creamy, the stuffed squid was perfectly cooked, the black Angus was a perfect medium rare. The dessert was amazing! This sugar glass sphere was beautifully constructed and tasted great.

Nothing beats Christmas in Dubai. The heat, dodgy cover versions of Mariah Carey (or maybe it was her, no-one knows after she mangled her New Year's Eve performance in Times Square), general lack of festivity and decorations that seem only to be strategically placed, rather than lovingly so, make for an interesting experience that made me yearn for London and home with Mumsie, where I had had visited a couple of weeks earlier. Here in Dubai, I'm more invested in things for the sake of festive brunches and dinners. We had to chose a special place to go for Christmas.<br/><br/>The Armani hotel is a piece of work; a place as slick and as ostentatious as they come, even for this city. Situated in the Burj Khalifa, it even has the address to end all addresses. We've been to the hotel's signature restaurant before, and it's really, surprisingly rather good, and a perfect place for Christmas Dinner. It's an Italian, which suits the European and I perfectly and is imaginatively called 'Armani/Ristorante', a name that causes issues when we tried to find it amongst the other outlets in the hotel, as I just walked around asking, in my very British access for "the restaurant", confusing attendants and lobby hosts alike.<br/><br/>In all ways, seemingly except its name, Ristorante is as flashy as hell and first impressions were forboding. If there's one thing Dubai is good at doing, it's delivering style over substance. Walk in to the dining room and you're greeted with expansive ceilings, lights that hang down from the top, down to low, low over the tables, an open kitchen to your right and a sweeping view of the Dubai Fountain to the left. Everything is fabrics, carpets and leather, in fifty shades of gold. The tableware is largely gold-finished and almost certainly Armani. I was baulking at what could lie in wait.<br/><br/>All said, it's a damn peaceful restaurant. Tables are far apart, and most are booths on the fountain-side (ask for one of them when you reserve, even if there’s only two of you) and you feel like you're in your own little lost city of gold as you sink into them. The hanging light allows more privacy, and the open kitchen is actually closed, hermetically sealed behind glass so you see, but not hear, all of the action (on our Christmas visit, we enjoyed observing a heated, silent argument between the head chef, and one of his team). I have never been more impressed with the design of a restaurant in my life - and I've been to the big Burger King on Leicester Square.  <br/><br/>It might be a little um…callous? of me to say but the ‘design’ of the staff there is also pretty impeccable. They’re dressed to the nines. Now I am no fashion expert as those of you who know me can vouch for, but they might have been dressed in Armani, seriously. I am a little better with checking out attentiveness and the team there hardly miss a beat. Or maybe they did, I was so busy being lost in their eyes and the cut of their uniform, as it flowed as gracefully as their sequence of service (feed me amuse-bouche and, in the case of our Christmas visit, complimentary Panettone, and I’m anyone’s). It was the European’s birthday, as well as Christmas, and I loved the white rose she was presented — a little different to a slice of cake and much more appropriate for her. I mean, we did get cake as well (more Panettone) but the European was non-plussed with that, so she cast it down to me.<br/><br/>Aside from Panettone galore, there are plenty more authentic Italian treats on the menu, of which you get a choice of à la carte or dégustation. Our first visit, a year ago, saw us eating off the former, and at Christmas we had the latter, and I am happy to say we couldn't fault either. The dégustation was a festive special, but a similar menu runs all year anyway, and it’s a good (albeit not cheap) way to try most things the kitchen has to offer. Pasta here is superb, probably the best in Dubai. Foie gras agnolotti in chicken broth was served as pre-starter, so the mean-spirited chefs only gave us a single piece each, but it was perfect; rich, flavourful and fresh. We had a couple of larger pasta dishes here before, I cannot recall what they were but I remember then being very good as well. At Christmas, our beetroot, nasturtium and castelmagno risotto made us swoon, simply because the rice was well-cooked, a first for any risotto I have had in Dubai. A fish course of salted cod was incredible too — cooked and seasoned to point of us saying it was the best course… until the veal with pumpkin, port and amaretti arrived… and I died. Seriously, very good stuff. The veal was so tender you could have spread it on toast. Dessert was good too (the European elegantly managed to drive her spoon through the bottom of the glass of lemon-thyme semifreddo), and the final course, a chocolate-hazelnut ‘finger’ (much like a ganache) was lovely, though not very Italian. By the time the Panettone trolley arrived, we were stuffed beyond stuffing. We had ordered, with the risotto, a portion of burrata with walnut, off the à la carte menu, because, last time, it blew us away.<br/><br/>Beverages are suitably expensive and let’s just leave it at that. I was a little surprised to see that a self-titled ‘wine paring’ with the dégustation menu was actually more akin to a brunch, where you order as much as you liked off a set beverage menu. No biggie in the end, as the wines on offer were very good, and it made an otherwise expensive night out a little better value for money.<br/><br/>So, as we walked out of Armani — the European with her rose, me with my Panettone and both us giddy with food and wine — conducting our regular queue-jump for a taxi, we realised that was Christmas was almost over, aside from a pool day at the W the day after. I couldn't be disappointed with the evening (and of course the company, but I have to say that). Ristorante is so slick, you’re not going to be tripping over crackers and tinsel when you walk in, but the staff are geared to the reason you are there, and the mix of happy diners (most of which were European, and therefore thankfully in a festive mood as well) made for a great atmosphere. For me Christmas isn't Christmas without good food, and though I would take Mumsie’s turkey lunch over Ristorante any day, I have never ceased to be amazed by such a glitzy place actually delivering on expectations; it happens so rarely in town. So, if you’re into proper Italian food, served in a fine-dining scale in a finer setting then I suggest, no, I command you to go. And make sure you have some jam in your fridge for the Panettone the morning afterwards.<br/><br/>As featured on thefoodthing.net

Loved this place, food is excellent and service is amazing, we visited this restaurant twice, and chose the Chef's menu where you get 7-8 course menu items. We liked our first visit than the second one cause on the fist one we received a gift each but the second one, they forgot to give us. We met the chef and talked to him about his food experience in Dubai. Total bill was AED1700 for two people, high, but worth it, maybe twice a year.

This very high-end restaurant offers pricy but quality Italian food in a modern and chic environment. The chef does not hesitate to come to check that everything is going well. All the complimentary starters, bread&butter and small testing bites fill you well at the end. The plates are tasteful and prepared with attention. The Italian cuisine is well represented here and the venue can pretend to be at Michelin star level.<br/>The entrance through the burj Khalifa and alignment of dream cars are worth the visit.

I don't know where to start... <br/>Everything about my dinner there was amazing. From the reception, to the table, to the view, to the chef who came by to say hello, to Fil who was helped us place our order and pick our wine. <br/>The quality of the food is superior, the service is exquisite, you have enough space to feel like the restaurant is yours only, the music is subtle but very very nice. <br/>It was my birthday so as a special touch, i had a red rose waiting for me at the table, i had a birthday cake good for two people, my husband pre-ordered and the restaurant or Ristorante offered me an amazing dessert that comes in the shape of a sphere that's filled with coconut creme and some tropical fruits. i can still taste it in my mouth. <br/>We ordered a la carte, as you have the choice to order a set menu where they already picked the best items. <br/>We had some oysters (Please try the one with apple sauce) big fat oysters, we had the Foi Gras, the beef tartare with Quail egg, the Buratta as starters (We wanted to order the whole menu) for main, my husband had the sea bass and i had scallops. <br/>The reason why i didn't comment on every item we ordered is because they were all delicious. each and everyone was a piece of heaven. <br/>i would definitely go back, a lot and definitely recommend it. <br/>It was not as expensive as we though especially that we ordered a lot. <br/>a must must must try in Dubai.

I feel that good food should be a right and not a privilege, and it needs to be without pesticides and herbicides. And everybody deserves this food. And that’s not elitist.”<br/><br/>– Alice Waters<br/><br/> Life is uncertain.

Armani/Ristorante has slowly been gaining a reputation as a bastion of Italian food innovation in Dubai. I had long been anticipating my meal there and I was not disappointed. The décor is classically Armani minimalist, which is a nice charge from the typical Dubai extravagance. We started the evening with a bottle of Laurent-Perrier Rose, as recommended by the Sommelier, which was full of vivacity and easy-drinking charm. Chef Alessandro then came over to chat with our table, which is always appreciated, we decided to trust his judgment on the evenings 5 course menu and he did not disappoint. The staff were very welcoming and attentive, the hostess at the front desk chatted with me as I made my way to the table and a cold towel for my hands was provided when I sat down. We were given a selection of bread rolls, (some stuffed with artichokes, others rolled in herbs and oil) and beautifully fragrant olive oils.<br/><br/>We started the evenings culinary adventure with an amuse bouche, which was a ravioli filled with Italian cheese, with basil puree, tomato’s, breadcrumbs and an anchovy butter foam. This was unabashedly sumptuous, the pasta was cooked to perfection and it was actually one of the best things I have eaten this year. Next we moved onto our first course which was a sashimi of sorts, raw salmon cut finely on a plate topped with various baby vegetables and deliciously sweet shrimps, there was also a small pastry filled with sour cream and topped with caviar that complimented the fish perfectly. This dish was a sight to behold, beautifully crafted by Chef Alessandro and his team, and paired expertly with a Pinot Grigio. We then moved onto a pasta dish, this was spinach tagliatelle with shrimps and a brown butter sauce, the pasta was perfectly al dente and although it was a simple pasta dish the flavours were working together in perfect harmony. This was paired with an Italian white expertly chosen by the sommelier, who was extremely knowledgeable and polite. For our third course we had turbot, with green bean puree, herbs, radishes and very sweet orange tomatoes. The fish was cooked faultlessly and for those of you, who haven’t tried turbot, I would highly recommend it, it has great flavour and firm, white flesh. This was paired with two half glasses of wine, an extremely fragrant chardonnay and a very light red wine. This was followed by a steak course the meat was meltingly tender and served with seductively seared foie gras. This was “merrily” accompanied by a full bodied red wine. We then had the desert course, which was the signature desert course, it looked and tasted beautiful, my only comment would be the sugar sphere was a little too thick. All in all it was a great evening, though I would love to be selfish and keep Armani/Ristorante all to myself, the work of Chef Alessandro is too good to stay hidden for long. The food far surpassed that of Robertos and Petite Maison and that is high praise indeed.<br/>There’s no doubt I will definitely be going back to Armani/Ristorante.

Location with the pursuit of creating great food and serving it with the right wine makes this a must visit restaurant. Have a wonderful journey into Italian cuisine while you experience the amazing Dubai mall fountains. Must have some wonderfully paired Italian wines with your food... course recommendations - fregola soup, quinoa salad with perfectly cooked salmon and finished off with the tiramisu.

This restaurant is very nicely designed, the food and the service are world class. Great for business, a romantic dinner or just a great meal before a night out with friends. When it comes to elegance this is really five star, If you wanna dine in style i highly recommend this place. Though it is pricey but it is worth it. My experienced was excellent!!!!

View to the fountains is amazing while you take in a sexy pre meal drink with the rich and famous at the Armani hotel. Food is excellent, very italian with a good selection of pastas and v.garlic dishes however no kissing afterwards. :) They also had a good selection of italian, french and portugese wines which of course made my night. Not always a fan of Italian waiters but these were ok for couple of hours or so.

I went there with 4 other friends. We didn't have reservations so as usual in Dubai they asked us if we had one and we said no. Immediately they looked at us as if we had committed a crime. This is despite the restaurant being more than half empty. Anyway, they seated us in an empty corner. The service was good and prompt. We ordered burrata and salad for appetisers and 4 kinds of Pastas including spaghetti with Lobster. The taste of the food while not bad, it was underwhelming.

Amazing view with an excellent service highly recommended expensive yes but worth it, the only thing I didn't like but that's me it was the tiramisu reason I don't like eggy flavours but still I keep looking for the perfect tiramisu but I can't complain it was a perfect dinner.

The place has good ambiance<br/>The food portion is more than expected<br/><br/>And to top it off the chef served us something off the menu, since we we've been there more than once in one month.

This restaurant can be described with only one word: WOW!!! Extremely professional staff, incredible attention to detail, extravagant food, and amazing ambience! Definitely fit for special occasions, prices are a bit high but very justifiable for this type of venue + experience! Must try for sure

A no brainer for special occasions. Incredible quality and service from the very first moment you enter their premises, obviously there's a price to pay, but you won't regret it.

Very good food, small portion on some dishes (glazed duck), service very good, very expensive, great views of BK fountains... Overall a very nice but expensive evening, left a little bit hungry.

Ristorante Armani is located on the lobby level of Burj Khalifa within the Armani Hotel. As my wife and I arrived to the hotel lobby we were directed towards the restaurant which although was accessed through an unimpressive narrow and long corridor of service access doors, the restaurant atmosphere was excellent. Once we entered the restaurant we were welcomed by the staff and escorted to our table, which was round, comfortable and had the proper amount of lighting. The interior décor was elegant and featured the panoramic kitchen where food is prepared. If you were seated by the glazing you could also have a nice view over the fountains.<br/><br/>When the menus arrived, I appreciated that the prices were not indicated on my spouse’s menu, instead only on mine. <br/><br/>It was our first visit we chose the restaurant’s set menu not to be missing on the chef’s highlights. We started our dinner with an artichoke soup which was a compliment from the chef. The soup was excellent. Then a selection of bread and a choice of olive oil. The set menu was composed of four entrees of which we have especially enjoyed two. The first entrée, a dish of burrata cheese, forest berries, balsamic and olive oil. It was an absolute treat. The other entree we particularly enjoyed was the concluding deserts, one of which was an intriguing globe of thin shell of sugar filled with creamy inside, flavored with passion fruit and a hint of banana. Not all the entrees were as indulging. The second entree for example, a type of chewy cannelloni with white veal, although flavorsome with attention to each component, the dish was a bit too salty. Another downside was my glass of water that had a funny odor to the glass. I had to ask for replacement. Aside from that, the food was excellent. Prior to our departure, my wife received a white rose and I a small bottle of olive oil for our anniversary. <br/><br/>Our overall experience was lovely I must say. We had an exceptional time with excellent service and food. I definitely recommend the restaurant.

One of the best restaurants in Dubai. Hands down the best dining experience. And the food was amazing. A bit pricy but totally worth it according to me.

This is arguably the best Italian food I have ever eaten. At Ristorante, you are not just paying for the food, but for the experience as well. As soon as we entered, we were shown to a beautiful table (we opted for indoor seating) right next to the windows where we caught a couple of glimpses of the Lake Fountain. After placing our order (we are vegetarian), we were greeted with a tray of breads and asked which one we would prefer. Of course, this being our first time, we opted for one of each. They were all pretty good, but the one that stole the limelight was the Parmesan bread. It was so heavenly, we asked for more. The breads came with a choice of olive oils, and when we requested for grated Parmesan for the table, it came without any gripes. Once we were done with the bread, we were surprised with an amuse-bouche (compliments of the chef). As we specified that we are a vegetarian table, he provided us a vegetarian amuse-bouche made from tomatoes. I am not a fan of tomatoes, but it was quite tasty. Next came our main courses - keep in mind that Ristorante changes its menu every six months, so the items on the menu on Zomato are from the older menu. Regardless, we did find some vegetarian options which we ordered - a Risotto Porchini and a Tagliatelle. Being Indian, we asked for the dishes well done. The tagliatelle was well done, and the chef was kind enough to replace the raw shrimp garnish that usually accompanies it with sauteed vegetables that were divinely cooked. The Porchini Risotto was a bit underdone for my palette but tasted like heaven. The mushrooms added a zing that I have never tasted before; they were that fresh! Following our hearty meal (don't be fooled by the portion size), we were provided the dessert menu where we opted for a Tiramisu. What arrived took our breaths away - it had a sugar stem; at one end was a caramelized hazelnut, and at the other end, 24k gold flakes. It was as delectable as it was exquisite. Following dessert, we were treated to a small platter of sweets, and were given white roses for our visit.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>All-in-all it was the best tasting Italian food I have had in Dubai, and the only reason I am marking it 1/2 a point less is because of the lack of vegetarian options. There also was no chicken on the menu if that is your staple source of protein. The experience was beyond enjoyable, and I will surely return for the new menu (releasing in a couple of weeks from today). But don't consider this restaurant a quick option for dinner after mall-hopping, as when booking our table, we were told about the strict dress code.

Tasty food, friendly staff, spectacular atmosphere.<br/>Parmesan bread from the bread basket was heavenly, I must have had at least 4 before my main course came... Order the truffle menu and you will not be disappointed. <br/>Try and get a window seat so you can see the dancing fountain.

Great food. Fantastic Cocktails. Tried the steak. Really really good. Their breads are amazing. They have a signature Passion Fruit and gold infused dessert which is really good. The staff are really courteous. They even gave us keepsakes tiny bottles of Olive oil as gifts when we were leaving. Great experience overall

Chef Alessandro Salvatico is extremely talented and passionate about food. This is clearly visible in his creations. The food was beautifully presented and served with great wine pairings. Don't forget to try their signature dessert which is one of a kind!

Used to love truffles before I went to this place. Although it's an absolute treat going to this restaurant but the amount of truffle infused dishes was over powering and made me not want to go anywhere truffles for a long time. But it's one of those dinning experiences you've got to go atleast once!

This would be a quick review ! <br/><br/>First of all, I never thought I'd start my Bon vivant tour in Dubai with this place ! Located at top of the observation deck at the massive burj, THIS HAS DISAPPOINTED ME . I expected customary food at Armani, being a high-class ristorante. I won't go into details but, THIS place is not for foodies !! Seriously ! Priced at some 200 dhirams for a single latte or sorbet, the food is not at all worth it ! The delicacies too aren't that lip-smacking ! I would call this place more of an experience than filling your stomach !

The ambiance was good but can't say the same about food. Maybe it was not something of my taste. Been their twice but didn't enjoy the food. The menu is very limited. Service is definitely something I would rate 5/5!

Excellent service and ambience but food taste was average considering the price

Simply perfect... Dare I say a better experience than la petit Maison... Better service, ambiance, and the angus steak is to die for. <br/><br/>What a night....

Great food and service. Very romantic place, great for romantic happenings. Yet its quite dim, just a little bit more lighting would be great.
