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
My friend told a lot about this place and so we happened to visit this place last week. Talking about the ambience, it had my heart. The staff was kind and nice and the services were quite speedy as expected. Ordered fusilli pasta in pesto sauce and Mojito Nook. Taste was to swear by.
Definitely taking my family too to this place.
Rating-5/5
Perfect for lunchbreak at D3 good options of pasta, pizza, salads, sandwiches but also breakfast. Nice outdoor space. Music is always too loud...just wana have lunch peacefuly lol but that's me... The parmigiana was huge and tasty. Service is quick, prices fairly good.
They make Delicious pastas, the portions are very generous and consistent, prices affordable and not overpriced and they deliver always on time!
Perfect weather to try out an Italian casual dining restaurant in the Dubai Design District. The restaurant had s good ambiance
Ordered for Rocca salad, grilled chicken with roasted potatoes as the side option, fusilli pasta in pink sauce and strawberry shake
The food was served within 10 minutes. The chicken was well grilled and tender from inside. The pasta sauce had authentic taste but would have tasted better if it had more vegetables. The Rocca salad was perfect
Service was average
Great ambience, friendly staff and most importantly good meal with good portion.. My daughter loves their spaghetti bolognese, her favorite dish

Vicolo is a cozy Italian restaurant in the middle of the D3. Everything was fresh and tasty. Highly recommended place. The only thing I would work on in the facial expression of the staff when they answer questions. Good luck!
Perfect casual dining venue with friendly staff and cool decor, they have fast internet connection, so it's good if you're working online...
I tried chicken salad and it was simple and delicious at the same time!
