A hidden gem within Century Village in Garhoud. During the colder months, it's nice to sit al fresco. Sip wine and jive to the live music. Their pesto pasta is soo yummy, it's an absolute favorite among the group. Pizza is also always amazing. Perfect place to chat with friends.
Absolutely loveeee their pizzas and the decor with the sweet Italian music playing in the background. Truly makes you feel like you’re in Italy!!
Portions are good and can be easily shared among two people. Tried the pina colada though and it was super bitter - would not recommend if you prefer sweeter cocktails.
Live music, some beer and tennis ambience...perfect place to party. Very efficient service, outdoor seating, good food. Must visit this place..
Awesome food thanks to chef we get same taste every time we visit this place!
Loved the new flavor pizza made by chef dinesh mst try pizza vendura with white sauces
Very chilled place, first time I go to the century village, I like the fact that it’s outdoor, they serve shisha and wine, I was catching up with a friend I haven’t seen In a long time and this was the perfect place
Had the most lovely dinner experience. Polite non-intrusive but attentive service. Dining was a pleasure. Tiramisu was lovely and so was the minestrone soup. Keep it up team. Great job 👍🏻
La Vigna is a beautiful restaurant located in century village near Gigico Metro Station. Thanks to the weather, it was an amazing time sitting outside in the evening for some dinner. The service was really prompt and the music was apt too. They have plenty inside seating as well. It was my first time visiting Century village and I am glad I tried out La Vigna. Pure and authentic Italian food.
The fact is that in #dubai there are loads of #pizza and #pasta restaurants.. aka .. "Italian restaurants" .. most of them are fast food or for your quick bites..
The Century Village it self is a very beautiful place with different eateries.. La Vigna is an authentic Italian restaurant with a very rustic ambiance.. it feels like you are sitting and dinning in an country side italian restaurant.. Having said that i donot wat to in anyway portray that its very small.. infact its a huge restaurant and it even has a mezzanine floor setup if people want to have private parties..
The FOOD!! well i loved the food.. i started of with a seafood appetizer which was delicious.. my entree was a Thin crusted authentic Diavola Pizza(Spicy) which was Amazing!! And my partner had a Steak which was Juicy and yummy.. as we do not drink alcoholic drinks they had offers us some amazing moctails.. but if by chance anyone drinks well they have a bar at the restaurant too..
Lastly the Dessert i ordered was a Tiramisu which i loved too..
To end it all i would love to visit the place again and enjoy more things on the menu..

We visited this place & tried the following dishes:
Appetizers
✨Bruschetta- one of the best I’ve had
✨Ravioli with spinach & cheese- It was crispy on outside with good stuffing inside
Mains
✨Carbonara sauce pasta- This was ok.. could’ve been better.
✨Saffron Risotto- Chef made this on our request which was not on the menu.. really appreciate it👍🏻
✨Agnello Grigliato- Perfectly seasoned Grilled Lamb chops served with mash potato & vegetables
Drinks
✨Red Rush- This was nice & refreshing.. a bit sour to taste
✨Give it to me- delicious fruity milkshake
Overall the service was great. The ambience is rustic European vibe .. The whole place is dim lit & melodious music in the background. It has both indoor & outdoor area.
Fantastic service with good selections of pizza....if the pizza could be made more thinner than wud be more authentic....very relaxing atmosphere with sheesha....a bit pricy overall....tiramisu is a must try
La Vigna is an Italian restaurant in Century Village. TheCenturyy Village is a beautiful food hub for al fresco dining in the Garhoud Area. The place reminds you of beautiful European Villages with cobbled pathways, plenty of greenery, fountains. It makes the perfect venue to spend the weekends with family and friends.
They have an extensive bar menu with a variety of Wines to choose from. I tried their mocktail – Lady Suzy which was a blend of apple, orange juices and peach syrup with soda. It was a very refreshing drink.
Coming to the food, we started off with the Caprese – The salad with Buffalo Mozzarella cheese slices, cherry tomatoes and basil leaves.
@lavignauae a treasure found @centuryvillagedxb is a place not to miss.. The restaurant is located facing a water feature and don't be surprised if you happen to see the ducks and turtles around.. Nature screams around the restaurant..
#lavignauae has a varied menu specializing in #italianfood .. The restaurant assures freshness and live up to their promises..
*Food : 5/5
1)Foccacine al Pomodoro : The freshly baked bread with cheese, oilves, tomatoes, herbs and olive oil.. This is highly recommended for a starter.. Good portion size..
2)Fritura Mista con Insalata Verde : Calamari, shrimps and prawns fry with salad..
3)Caprese : Slice of buffalo mozzarella with fresh tomatoes and basil.
4) Quateo Stagioni : Tomato sauce base with mozzarella cheese, Turkey ham, artichoke, olives and mushrooms.
5) Petto di Pollo alla Pizalola: Chicken breast seasoned and grilled with vegitables
6) Frutti di Mare : Prawns, calamari and mussels in a delicious mustard cream sauce..
7) Tiramisu
8) Creme Caramel
*Ambience: 5/5
The outdoor serried was relaxed with a nice view of surrounding nature features. The indoor setting is vintage and takes one back in time. A nice setting to go on a date, relax with family or treat someone special. And a place to be for those who want to treat themselves in good food, music and great atmosphere.
*Service: 5/5
A smiling, helpful server is a one who also make an impression along with the food.
*Cost :
Given the quality of food, service, ambience and experience , I would say it is reasonably priced.
Best Italian food in the best ambience you can ever enjoy. The place has both indoor and outdoor sitting and both have their own feel. So, you should visit this place at least twice to enjoy the great food in both indoor and outdoor tables. Not only the food but their wine collection is also great. The place is great and a must visit.
Visited this beautiful place in Century Village for lunch. The outdoor seating feels so peaceful in the pleasant weather.
Items ordered:
Arroncini Cheese Balls - Stuffed with vegetables and cheese. A delicous appetizer.
Scallopa Crema E Tungi
Grilled breast with sauteed veggies, mash potatoes and mushroom sauce.
Just really awesome and healthy as well.
Pizza La Vigna - One of their signature pizzas with a nice thin crust. Loaded with chicken and awesomeness.
Verdure Penne Pasta - A veg pasta in pink sauce which was really good. Can be customised as per your sauce choice too.
Crema Caramella - A small pudding with a topping of mixed berries sauce. The combination was heavenly and a hit.
Drinks
Naked Colada - It's pina colada with a fancy name but is very yummy and refreshing.
Give it to me - A strawberry based drink with milk and icecream. Equally delicious.
All ingredients and items were of premium quality.
Overall great food, great ambience, friendly staff.
Definitely worth a visit.
No doubt, there are many places in Dubai now, where you can dine in, enjoy the indoor & outdoor ambience at the same time. Century Village is one of the oldest among all..... which offers you fine dining & memorable outing experiences. We had been there a number of times & this time we were invited to dine in at LA VIGNA, a true Italian restaurant that not only focused on interiors that represent the countryside of Italy with its wooden & red brick wall Decor, but also had maintained their authentic flavors since long. It has got a plenty of indoor as well as out doors seatings.
Considering the pleasant weather of Dubai now a days, we planned to sit out side.
Coming back to food.....
For appetizers ..... they served us
- Some fresh & hot breads..... with variety of dips.
For drinks, they served us
- Mint Cooler ..... a version of Lemon Mint Mojito ... & Naked Colada ... a blend of pineapple & coconut. Some amazing drink
For salads.... we ordered
- Insalata Mista salad...... Mixed salad leaves along with cucumber & tomatoes...... simple & fresh salad ...
From starters...... we tried
- Calamari Alka Griglia..... grilled calamari ... marinated with lemon & oregano. Totally amazing.
- Ravioli de spinach friti.... Ravioli stuffed with spinach & cheese in cream sauce. .... it’s like melting in your mouth.
For mains we ordered...
- Farfella pasta with Alfredo sauce.... creams sauce... mushrooms & cheese ... along with chicken. ... now that’s what I called a perfect chicken Alfredo pasta.
- Penne pasta with bolognese sauce.... with ground beef ... tomatoes & herbs ... a perfect combination.
- Risotto Prosciutto Funghi.... creamy rice tossed with turkey ham & loads of cultivated fresh mushrooms. It’s creamilicious ..
- Filetto de bye al Pepe verde.... Beef tenderloin steak marinated with peppercorns & olive oil ... served with mashed potatoes & some stir fried baby-corns & other vegetables.
- Diavola Pizza.... freshly baked in their wood fired oven.... topped with tomato sauce... mozzarella cheese ... beef salami & spicy dried chilli ... a perfect pizza.
Last but not the least ..... the Desserts ..... “ Dolci” .. as they say in Italy ... we choose to have...
- Tiramisu ... coffee flavored sponge with mascarpone cheese
- Crema caramellata con Frutti di Bosco.... cream caramel topped with mixed berries.
Both were delicious.
They also serve some awesome sheesha ...we really enjoyed the sheesha in the lush green surroundings. A must have if you are at La Vigna.
To sum it all .... it’s a perfect place to hand out with family or friends .. with awesome food in the most amazing location.
Thanks to Mr. Suren for introducing us to such an amazing place & the team of La Vigna for serving us.
How I missed this beautiful place this long , was the first thought I had. La Vigna, which is nestled inside century village , Garhoud is having a wonderful outdoor seating area. Best place to enjoy the winters in Dubai 👍🏻
Coming back to food , we started our lunch with some refreshing drinks called ‘give it to me ‘ ,which was strawberry milk shake mixed with banana and grenadine and the next drink in our table was ‘Lady Suzi ‘ which is my all time favorite fruit aka passion fruit juice mixed with apple and orange 👍🏻
For starters we had mussel soup , which was little salty and was not having much of mussel flavour which was infused with Celery and onion . I’m a person who is more interested in trying starters than the main courses.
We had a grilled calamari, which was a little soggy, since it was grilled but the bruschetta we had was crispy and creamy at the same time ,which was topped with mushrooms,black olives,cherry tomatoes and cheese .I really loved it
For main course we had Daviola pizza , which was a pepperoni pizza with beef salami and I must say it was one of the best pizza I had in while .THe other main course we had was a pan fried chicken escalope in mushroom sauce with mashed potato. I wish they would have served with more mushroom sauce otherwise the dish was just yum
So we ended our lunch with tiramisu and one creme caramel. I liked the creme caramel ,which was topped with mixed berries,more than the tiramisu . Tiramisu was way too soft and creamy as well . And by the way I must say ,presentation of each and every dish was interesting
Definitely going back there to try all other dishes 😊

One of prettiest Italian restaurants in D-town, La Vigna welcomes you with a warm rustic ambience that lines up right with this chilly season. The interiors resemble an authentic Italian home and the stone-brick walls add to the wintery feel!. With cozy seating options, this one’s certainly a date night worthy spot. And wait till you see how lovely their food and drinks are >
Located in the beautiful century village this rustic looking Italian restaurant is definitely a hidden gem for authentic italian food lovers . Visited here for dinner on a midweek and we opted to sit outdoors as the weather has been fantastic. Enjoying the cool breeze we sat closer to the fountain listening to the water flow , the view and feel was pretty serene. we started off with few cocktails we tried bloody mary, long island, cosmopolitan and off course with some fresh breads... who can resist those fresh breads ?
while it comes to food, we tried
Appetizers
Ravioli Di Spinaci fritti -Deep fried ravioli filled with spinach and cheese and it was amazing while it was piping hot
Frittura Mista Con Insalata Verde -This was a platter of deep fried calamari, hammour strips and shrimps served with tartare sauce and green salad. Loved the Hammour strips the most .
Mains
Lamb chops - Absolutely a generous portion of juicy lamb chops , super delicious
Pizza -Diavola --Freshly baked in wood oven right in front of us, absolutely a delight with beef salami, mozarella cheese , dried chilli and tomato sauce . The base was just perfect not too thick or thin, a little spicy which went on well with Dubai winters ....seriously i could have more of it . Loved it !!!!
Finally we didnt try dessert ...why ? coz we were too full :) . So we are going to visit again for some more pizza and to try dessert. All I say ...A beautiful place, lovely service and excellent food !
Part of the vibrant eat-out scene at Century Village, connected and complementing the wildly popular Irish Village at The Aviation Club in Dubai, La Vigna is a tucked-away hide-out for Italian-inspired fare. Century Village proposes 10 world cuisines, and a splendid open courtyard for al fresco dining now that the weather is fantastic in Dubai.
La Vigna, the only Italian restaurant at Century Village, takes you to a different place and time altogether. Without getting onto a plane, you’re transported to the Italian countryside as you step into this restaurant with rustic brick walls, wooden windows and red and white table tops. The fiery built-in pizza oven adds to the ambience too. The restaurant is two-floored, in-addition to a huge outdoor area, a bar and shisha.
Classic European beautiful decors is what you think of first when you enter La Vigna!
The classic wine bottles and the Italian melodies will definitely transport you to to Italy for a fine experience!
.
I LOVE ITALIAN FOOD and I couldn’t wait to dig in asap!
For appetizers:
⚜️Caprese: The absolutely gorgeous combination of buffalo cheese and tomatoes. The buratta was PERFECTO!
⚜️Frittura Mista con Insalata Verde: Sounds fancy? it was nothing but fried shrimps and calamari fried to perfection!
⚜️Bruschetta: Well seasoned olive and tomato relish on home made bread. i could live on this forever 😍
⚜️Cocktail Di Gamberetti: Probably my least favorite, it was cold shrimp cocktail, the sauce was a little off on this one.
Mains:
⚜️Petto Di Pollo alla Pizzaola: Grillef Chicken breadt served with steamed veggies. Nothing too fancy, just good wholesome meal
⚜️ Diavola: Guys the pizzas were the BOMB! Specially the turkey one, I mean firstly they were baked right infront of us and secondly flavors and base were PERFECT! (5 stars just FOR THIS) yum
⚜️A la Vigna: A friend had ordered this and I wasnt a huge fan of it, the Truffle oil despite being a favorite couldn’t bring much charm to the dish.
⚜️Panzerotti: MY FAVORITE DISH OF THE DAY ⭐️
This homemade butterfly shaped pasta with chicken and ricotta filling was the bomb! Super delicious and flavorful Definitely recommended
Desserts:
We ordered all of them, coz why not?
They were all good.
My ABSOLUTE favorite was the flan with berry compote! Heavenly i must say🤩❤️
I was recently invited for lunch at La Vigna which serves authentic Italian Cuisine. La Vigna is located in Century Village in Garhoud and has been a popular place to go out with friends and family.
The interiors had a rustic look with glimpses of a traditional family run restaurant.
We were welcomed with a bread basket served with Olive Oil & Balsamic. The breads were fresh and soft and the garlic bread was crisp to my liking.
I then got my Virgin Strawberry Mojito which looked so pretty and tasted even better.
For Appetizers we order a variety of dishes with the Bruschetta being my favorite.
1. Caprese - This is the only salad I like in this cuisine because i like the combination of Buffalo Mozzarella cheese & Cherry tomatoes. The buratta had the right texture but i wasnt a big fam of the flavor.
2. Bruschetta - This was my favorite starter because the bread to topping balance was perfect. The bread was not too hard or too soft and the tomatoes and olives were seasoned very well.
3. Frittura Mista con Insalata Verde - Crispy Calamari and Prawns are everyones’ preferred starter along with some refreshing mocktails. I liked the fact the the batter had the right consistency and the seafood was cooked properly.
Mains
1. A La Vigna - I ordered this with Tagliatelle Pasta and added Prawns to it. The pasta was served with Broccoli, Cherry Tomatoes , Vegetarian Porcine and drizzled with Truffle Oil. I was sold at Truffle Oil because I love the flavor and the entire dish was balanced.
2. Petto di Pollo alla Pizzaiola - This was an entree with grilled chicken breasts served with seasoned tomato sauce topped with olives and chilli. These were served with steamed vegetables and mashed potatoes.
3. Diavola - I love freshly baked pizzas and this was one of them. The base was made on order with ingredients like beef salami, tomato sauce, spicy dried chilli & mozzarella cheese.
I liked the fact that the table i was sittinf on had 1 server who was just serving us. He was prompt and made sure the food is served on time.

Oh, what a find this one. Located in the Century Village for over 18 years is the how hidden this has been and it was for me a true find. The feel is exactly Italian, vintage and fine. The red and while checkered table top covers, the wooden fixtures, rustic walls and stoney grounds and cute flower arrangements, all take you back to a sleepy town in Italy. I am loving this place already.
This was my second visit to Century Village to review La Vigna, a restaurant so Italian, not only by its food, but as you walk inside Century Village the Italian Vibes are felt from far. Much attractive & widespread outdoor seating arrangement with red & white checked table clothes, antique style wooden door & all things Italian in its inside & outside décor.
There are many venues in Dubai where you can dine in, enjoy the indoor and outdoor ambience at the same time. From one among them is Century Village, where you can find Al Fresco dining and enjoy family outings. They have restaurants that serve Seafood, Mediterranean, Indian, Persian, American, Japanese, British, French, Portugese, Italian and Lebanese Cuisines. The setup inside Century Village now for celebrating Christmas, hence the outdoor was decorated in that manner.
Came across to this beautiful Italian restaurant located at gorgeous location . The authentic Italian restaurant you really don't want to miss .The decor ,service is surely spot on.Staffs are welcoming and very good in their knowledge for food menu.
Starting with the delicious starters 'Cocktail di Gamberetti' (Prawn cocktail ), Bruschetta , Caprese(V)(Mozzarella) , Friturra Mista con lnsalata Verde (Mixed fried seafood)served with tartare sauce .
Then comes from the refreshing drink which was Lady Suzi mixed of apple ,orange drink mixed with passion fruit syrup with soda.
Then were the fresh ,hot flavoursome pizzas , pastas which were the ravoilli ,alfredo pasta and their La Vigna pasta it was so good tasty the quantity and quality was not compromise at all.
From the meat section chicken steak served with tomato sauce was something for the people who prefer to have tomato sauce rather than cream white sauce .
Lastly their desserts Tiramisu , pistachio gelato , blueberry cheesecake surely recommend their stunning desserts.
-La Vigna-
Located @centuryvillagedxb is this 18 year old rustic restaurant @lavignauae This award winning Italian Restaurant is nothing shorter than pure bliss. From the location to the food and the service is just pure class!
The old and rustic feel will only take you back to the streets of italy with that authentic look and feel from settings to the decore and even the small wood oven right in the middle of the restaurant is a just like a scene from an old sicilian movie.
With this beautiful weather in U.A.E now sitting outside under the trees with the cool breez enjoying a very flavourful and delicious pizza and ice tea is just the ideal down time after a hectic week.
They do have a wider menu from salads to pastas but the La vigna special pizza was just 😋😘😍😛 it usually comes with chicken but you can request it with seafood too (trust me on that one), the dough was just made to perfection with that thin crust crisp when you bite into it and the fluffy soft center with the sauce, cheese and toppings to go with it.
Fantastic place, service and delicious pizza and drinks. Definitely a place to chill with family and friends. .

La Vigna looks straight out of a street in the Italian Countryside sporting a totally relaxed and old school vibe with wooden furniture, traditional paintings and décor, chequered table cloth and classic italian music playing in the backdrop.
Italian cuisine is one of my favorite cuisines and I’ve visited most of the Italian restaurants in Dubai, from casual to fine dining. Recently I visited La Vigna, an Italian restaurant that I used to frequent almost a decade ago. And I am glad to find out that they are still very consistent and serve good Italian food, no wonder they’ve been around for more than 18 years.
If there is one reason you should go here, it is the interiors. Loved the ambience inside. It is old European style and I could sit there for hours.
The mushroom soup was creamy and delicious.
The salmon affumicato was great.
I loved the daviola pizza.
Nice tiramsu too.
For a detailed review and more dishes, click Read Full Post below.
Nice place , good food and service. we went for afternoon lunch. The place is quite and less crowded than Irish Village. Outdoor seating is impressive during the day.
Located inside Century Village, this is a quaint and elegant Italian restaurant with delicious food. The ambience has a natural environment of trees and shrubs accompanied by stone flooring giving it an old rustic feel yet having a very live vibe to it.
We took the option of outdoor seating since there was live singing- The singer sings a mix of 90s and latest songs.
We ordered Pink Sauce Pasta, Diavola (spicy pizza) and Tiramisu for dessert.
We were given complimentary garlic bread which was accompanied with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and chilli flakes- it was fresh and crispy and tasted good with the side accompaniments.
The pink sauce pasta was delicious as well.
The pizza was the hit of the evening - it was thin crust with the melted cheese dripping and falling off the sides with salami and the red pizza sauce combining to give a great flavour.
The tiramisu was tasty- it was light with perfect balance between sweet cream and coffee.
Overall, delicious Italian cuisine with an amazing ambience.
They have amazing outdoor and indoor sitting area.During weekends they have live singing.The singer take requests as well and plays really nice British tracks.Great selection of Italian food and drinks.Love their penne pasta and creme caramel.
Just wanted to eat Ravioli, not many restaurants make them even though if they claim to be Italian. So thanks to Zomato App I checked quite a few outlets near DFC and what sauce they would serve with it was very important for me.
Looking thru few menus I tried to search this restaurant which I loved for their Ravioli but had not visited in a long time as my husband does not prefer Italian food.
So enjoyed every bite of my Spinach Ravioli in white sauce and ordered their Tiramisu as well. Service was quick, staff is friendly and the climate has become better so enjoy your food while grabbing a seat outdoors.
Best Pizza in Dubai, I recommend the Diavola ! Very good Shisha, beers, wine, good service, some bands sometimes, Irish village. Feel like in Europe ! What else ?
Oh italian food...this place is always full.now i know why.we were guided to our table as it was a busy night due to DDF Tennis.too many choices.i settled for the grilled hammour.tasty tasty! Pizza, lobster, pasta all heavenly made!try and go!!!
Was craving for some good italian pasta and pizza for a long and this was tottally satisfying ..we ordered pink sauce penne woth chicken and la vigna pizza made to perfection also a portion of garlic bread was also good amazing ambience and good interiors.
It was a good experience irish village with perfect irish ambience and they serve brewed beer with seesha. It’s better to visit the place in winter rather than in summer.
The best Ravioli I've ever had. Perfect ambience : check
Amazing service : Check
The serving portion : 5/5
With my superman!
Accompanied by garlic bread and a bottle of wine.
Will definitely recommend it to all!
Caught up with friends over the weekend for dinner. The place was more lively as compared to the other restaurants. Ordered the Raviolli Di Spinaci Fritti as an appetizer. It was deep fried but tasted a little dry as the filling was less. For the main course ordered A La Vigna Pasta in pink sauce. It had a good portions and a good mix of fresh mushrooms cheese and Italian spices. Second main course was Verdure Pizza which was average in taste. Ideally the appetizer should be served before the main course. Service was prompt
Fabulous restaurant, great food and the staff and service impeccable. A must go to Italian! All very let down by the fluet player......why ruin the ambience la vigne????? Please please don't this slow music
Food here is great and the outdoors are exceptional. Great place for sheesha and excellent food. This time of the year is perfect for this place. Not only in the evenings, afternoons are great for family and kids.
Was my first visit to century village , saw this place really like ambiance. We ordered for Pizza , Garlic Bread some mocktails and wine and beer and sheesha too. Every thing is amazing but a bit high on price side.
La Vigna is one of the multiple options available to any one who visits Century Village.. We have never tried any other place other than La Vigna..
The ambience of the whole place is relaxing and warm. It was a delight to visit the restaurant after a stressful week at work . The restaurant was fairly empty since we decided for an early dinner.
There’s plenty of seating outside for those who enjoy a smoke(and cats).. We opted to sit inside since we are not fond of the smoke neither the cats..
We chose a table for 2 in the corner of the restaurant with a window.. The same place we sat on our first visit to La Vigna few years ago.
We ordered a glass of rose wine and a few beers to top up. I’m not a wine connoisseur so not going into details on that..
The service on this occasion was below par and I’ll overlook it since ambience and food made it worthwhile..
The appetizer we chose was Ravioli Di Spinaci Fritti(V). It was not to our liking. Out of 6 pieces we managed to finish only 5..
For the main course, we ordered a pizza La Vigna(same as the restaurant). It was really nice to eat authentic Italian pizza.. The base was just right.. Not too thin nor too thick.. The toppings were placed neatly under the blanket of mozzarella.
Dessert had to be the Tiramisu.. La Vigna is our favorite of all the places we have tried Tiramisu.. The proportions of mascarpone cheese with coffee soaked biscuits was just beautiful.. a new addition was the macron along with the Tiramisu..
Overall, a lovely dinner and must try place for all.
Went to this place only for Sheesha and it was a wonderful experience.. staff is polite and arranged a good table for us. Pleasant experience!
It’s a really amazing restaurant and cafe bar with best pizza chef and other stuff hopefully all of this reviews readers visit the restaurant
We usually eat out at La Vigna after our tryst at Irish Village has come to an end. It's lovely to sit out in the winters - I personally find the interiors a little worn out and the ac is usually in frost mode...brrrr.
We usually order the Verdura Cotta Mista and the Bruschetta for starters. The Cotta Mista antipasti is really fresh and authentically Italian.
For mains, we vary our order between the Margherita Pizza, Chicken Escalope or the Spinach Ravioli. All portions are large and can be shared. Food is good and we keep going back to this place.
My favorite restaurant in Dubai!
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, good alcohol & great food! I love the outdoor seating & the occasional live music. All the food I've tried is great but my favorite is the trout dish & the risottos are also very good!
Nice italian food, reasonably priced. The service was attentive and the alcoholic drinks were good as well. I liked the fact that you can eat outdoors while having wine in century village, it gives you the feeling that you are in Italy. If you are an italian food lover, it is worth a visit!
Best margeretta pizza ever!! I travel all the way from fujairah(150km) just to eat this pizza made by der chef DINESH.
Must visit place for everyone in dubai and travelling to dubai
This is perfect place for pizza.. I ordered vegetarian pizza and it's was delicious with less cheese as I ordered.
Service and ambience is also very good.
Best italian food in Dubai ..... best staff, service eas very prompt and food was served exactly the way we wanted. Definitely going back. Must visit
One of the finest Italian Restaurants in Dubai.
Awesome food!!
Awesome ambience and excellent service!!
It's a must visit for all Italian food lovers..
Nice spot in Century/Irish village good outdoor terrace and live music on a Thursday night. Food is ok, not too bad and nothing special at the same time, flavors are just average and so is the menu. Service is good. Good place if you are in the are wanting to sit outside and need a carby Italian kick
Honestly, I've lost count to how many times I've been here. This place has kept everything genuine be it the wood fired pizza oven, the authentic food or the Italian interiors. We usually order their grilled veg pizza, which is made in their wood fired pizza oven. Garlic bread, pastas are amazing too. It’s one of the good places for the shisha lovers. They have amazing staff- friendly and cheerful. They give a special treatment to every customer.
The ambience is lively. I simply love their outdoor seating with their live band performance, but if you choose not to sit outside, there's indoor seating as well..
Been here many times over the past few years. I like their location inside the irish village surrounded by other restaurants. It serves italian cuisine ranging from antipasta, pasta, pizza to meat and seafood. With lots of competition for italian cuisine this place still remains one of the longest lasting italian restaurant in the area. Their ambience is amazing and my rating is mostly for that. The layout of the tables with the checkered tablecloth alongside the nature really feels like you are dining somewhere out of dubai, which is what i love about this place.
Service is great and served with a smile. During the day its a bit quiet but its quite expected. At night it has a very lively ambience. I came here for lunch and was served complimentary garlic toasted sliced baguette. Generous gesture. We ordered the tomato soup and that was very delicious and definitely not from a can. Their grilled vege pizza is woodfired. Nice thin crust and decent amount of toppings and doesnt make you feel bloated, unlike some pizzas that has the ratio of too much bread and stingy on the toppings. Ive never tried their pastas here but it sure looks good. Also having drinks here is great for the ambience. They are slightly pricey especially for their pizzas. Drink prices are decent. They also do really good shisha and they have a band playing outdoors in the night.
For italian food and Corona beer this is the place. The pasto the pizza the service the sheeesha uff i cant stop praising this place. The pan sheesha is amazing (Thank you abu saif) for making the best sheesha ever..I visited this place 5 times in 5 days i was there loved it
Came here on a friday night. Ordered the grilled hammour and la vigna pizza. Too expensive for the quality and authenticity of the dishes. The taste of both was average.
Good food. But a bit pricey. Enjoyed the veg lasagna every time I've ordered. The tiramisu is also very good. Garlic bread was amazing. Located at a good place.
I went there for the first time. Very cosy place. Welcoming staff. I ordered a tomato soup and a seafood salad..it was very nice..cappuccino was alright..my friend had a tiramisu and he loved it. All in all good place to try out..
It was our first visit yesterday. The place is vry cozy and food was vry good. Pizzas were awesome with real taste and no junks. Only issue was they didnt display their offer for the day. We were informed that there was a buy one get one offer for beer while paying the bill which we felt awkward.

La Vigna is situated inside Century Village in Garhoud, serving Italian cuisine. Being on a clean eat tip for the past few days, I was determined not to sabotage my eating plan. I was a little worried that the menu would be restrictive but was pleasantly surprised that this place offered quite a variety of dishes.
My first time at la Vigna, but my sis in law is a regular.
The place was quite quiet for a Friday night.
We ordered the mushroom risotto, the veggie pizza and the grilled hammour.
The food was very delicious. No complains. Once of the good Italian joints I would say.
The pizza is the brick oven thin crust, well made and crispy.
We ended the night with the tiramisu.
This is the only place we wanted to visit over and over before ending our long tour UAE
the pepperoni pizza we had from la vigna it was amazing.
the best pizza ever among all the italian restaurant we visited in UAE.
highly recommend to any Italian who visit dubai must visit this place its feels like home
Village of restaurants
One of my favourite Italian restaurant in town. They have an indoor and outdoor area, serving shisha and alcohol as well. My favourite here is the mushroom risotto in pink sauce. The staff is very sweet and always welcoming, my hang out spot when I'm in mood for good Italian food.
La Vigna is one of Dubai’s classic Italian creations, a genuine homegrown concept, launched when Dubai was being flooded with franchises from around the world.
La Vigna has kept it real on every level be it the authentic tasting food, the woody Italian interiors or the wood fired pizza oven. In addition to a delightful culinary experience, their outdoor seating in the right weather is a real treat.
I also love the feature of being able to order from any of the neighboring restaurants, which makes it fun and easy, especially if you are a large group with varied preferences.
Definitely give this spot a shot if you fancy a nice Italian meal in a nice chilled out atmosphere.
This is not the first time i hav visited the place. We have often went here for dinner and the food is always good. Yesterday we had odered ravioli, magarita pizza, garlic bread, and tiramisu. Everything nice except ravioli. It was bland and the spinach n cheese stuffing was really bad. It tas2lik the ravioli was pre cooked. And ya not to mention sheesha which i think is over priced aed 100. I would like to go to the place again like i always do but i hope the food quality is for what we pay because it is an expensive place.
A nice Italian restaurant in Century village. Definitely try their vegetarian pizza 👌 Their sheeshas are very gud too, particularly the pan rasna flavour. A lil on the pricier side though.

La Vigna is the first restaurant to open at Century Village. Depicting the rural Italy with brick walls and wood paneling, La Vigna is a rustic place where simple Italian cuisine at its best is served. Besides the traditional pasta dishes, a live wooden oven bakes some of the best pizzas in town. Risottos as well as grills and seafood come highly recommended.

Remember, a drop of ink may make a million think.
excellent thin crust pizza. not a lot of those in dubai
i would go there only for the pizza as i didnt find the risotto authentic
service, shisha and drinks all round good
I love the vibe of Century Village & Irish Village, and the night lights are one of my favorite of the kind in the city. La Vigna's delicious food enhances the whole experience - I love their garlic bread with cheese, and Margherita pizza.
Nice location but no great views. Friendly staff. Ravioli was made to perfection. Lamb chops cooked very well.. Even their complementary garlic bread was tasty. They serve a generous portion of tiramisu so think about ordering one for two
a nice stylish well design place looking forward to go again a heart warming and mouth watering food amazing experience. cool atmosphere and nice hospitality.
Beautiful location and ambience with consistent food and service since years and years that we have been visiting! A favourite with the kids too for the yummy pizzas and pastas with lots of room to run around and enjoy century village
I had a table arranged for my bestfriend's birthday dinner. The service was exceptional. Aasif the manager on duty was really helpful. The staff were very friendly. And the food was tasty. Authentic Italian cuisine at its best. Aasif let me choose what I wanted and the way I wanted it. I would definitely come back and recommend this place.
Im writing on this after few visits. Amazing food, but sometime pure Italian and sometimes with a slight Indian touch. We ordered La vigna Pizza, Lasagna and Thiramisu. Reasonable price. Bread sticks were amazing.We were fortunate to have pure Italian taste few days ago instead of that Indian touch. I recommand this especially for foreigners who seek pure Italian Traditional taste.it was a good job.you must be having a good Italian Chef..vivamente recomand questo come un restuarent italiano puro se u Foud lo stesso chef che ha fatto i miei piatti .

(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) المعكرونة هنا مذهلة! مع العديد من المطاعم الأخرى ، يعد طلب المعكرونة مخيبا للآمال ، حتى مع الملح والفلفل لا يزال طعمها. لكن هذا المطعم مختلف. طعم رائع ، أجزاء جيدة. ينصح به بشده!

The pasta here is amazing! With many other restaurants, ordering pasta is a disappointment, even with salt & pepper it’s still tasteless. But this restaurant is different. Amazing taste, good portions. Highly recommended!
(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) أجواء عتيقة ، فريق عمل جيد وودود.
الطعام لذيذ جدًا ، ولن تندم على زيارة هذا المكان. قد تستغرق الخدمة وقتًا طويلاً ولكن الانتظار يستحق ذلك. خبز الثوم لذيذ. كل الطعام طازج ولذيذ جدا. يجب زيارة المكان إذا كنت تحب الطعام الإيطالي.
