If you are looking for an Italian Street food kind of concept, then do not miss out Vicolo located in Dubai Design District, home to designers, artists and creative thinkers. I accept to the fact that to really experience that perfect Stuzzichini or Pasta, you need to search for those small cafes or stalls where true Italian flavours originate. And I believe Vicolo has succeeded to bring that Italian street food experience to Dubai. Chef Marco Saracino has got those soulful hands to bring that delicious italian food to the table. Vicolo means a “a narrow city street ” and the menu here has been passed down through generations with a modern twist to tantalize those taste buds.
The drinks we had were Passion Fruit Mojito Nook and Iced Latte, very refreshing to cool off this heat.
This is my favourite whereever I go, so I had to try the Burratina here, its 150g of fresh mozzarella filled with creamy stracciatella served with tomato. What can I say, just fresh and loved it.
From the round Napolitana style (Pizza) we went for the Pepperoni – Spianata picante, parmesan, mozarella. Zayan had three slices since he loves Pepporoni Pizza, well he gave a thumbs up to that.
How can I miss the Pasta section, we went on to choose the Spaghetti Bolognese, this was heaven. Ground Beef perfectly cooked with onions, carrots, celery and tomato. A perfect combo with spaghetti.
From the Mama’s kitchen, I ordered the Branzino in Guazetto – Fresh Sea Bass cooked in tomato sauce, cherry tomato, capers, olives, parsley garlic and sides had roasted potatoes. Sea Bass in that sauce was amazing, if you are a fish lover then go for it.
It is known that their Tiramisu is the best, so why not try it right? Well the first spoon of Tiramisu did feel it was the best one in Dubai. Perfect to end your meal.
The restaurant is located at D3 and also has its own character. Love the hanging bicycle and the vespa at the front. We had the signature pizza with burrata on top which was very fresh and delicious. Tiramisu is very yummy as well, great choice for a hot summer day. Will come back to try more dishes.
Its a most visited place by me, i am in love with their pastas and pizza, the ambiance is great with good music and staff is polite n helpful. Must try
