Bellissima! <3 true italian food cooked with ultimate care and served with love to their customers! Strongly recommend - a burrata with red shrimps for starter, grilled sea bass to follow and gelato (hazelnut and pistachio flavor just divine ...) on the top!!! They controle it all, from carefully selected ingredients - to decor on your plate.
The best Italian restaurant in Dubai.
The food is excellent and the view of the Marina is beautiful.
I hardly recommend this place �
Been in Dubai 15 years this is so far the best Italian restaurant in town. Very good food, fresh and authentic Italian cuisine. Must try. Professional staff, beautiful view, amazing food and reasonable prices.
location is second to none beautiful views great atmosphere a very rewarding place to have dinner,staff very attentive food and drink delicious and served up to perfection highly recommended myself and my wife thoroughly enjoyed our evening.
Amazing place one of the Italian restaurant I have been in Dubai excellent food, but the BURRATA is very special surely can't find the same anywhere else!! and the ice cream all good but the (pistachio) wow!! Super!!! very professional staff great service witch is very unusual in Dubai to get!! Massimo he's very friendly kind, super friendly and that's what it makes this restaurant different from others the owner is there and puts his love into his business!! Well done!! I would highly recommend Massimo's restaurant!! 10/10
Sono stata a cena questa sera con un gruppo di amici, ho trovato questo ristorante delizioso, prodotti eccezionali e di alta qualità.
Il proprietario cura i clienti mettendoli a proprio agio e facendoli sentire in famiglia ma con grande professionalità.
Ho mangiato benissimo più che meritate 5stelle .
Posto da sogno, vorrei ringraziare mia cugina Krizia che me lo ha proposto �.
se andate a Dubai , dovete passare più di una serata da Massimo’ s italian Restaurant
Cucina eccellente italiana a dubai..
Abbiamo pranzato poche ore fa.. tutto squisito abbiamo ordinato montanare, parmigiana di melenzane, frittura di gamberi e calamari una margherita con bufala al centro e paccheri alla siciliana.. sentirsi a casa per davvero ottimi prodotti.. servizio impeccabile proprietario super disponibile tutto qst in una location meravigliosa.. consigliato al 100% .. se dovessimo ritornare la nostra prima tappa sarà sicuramente li.. complimenti ♥️
Welcome to all the guys in massimo's italian restaurent. I think you should taste the massimo's Italian food. there is amazing, authentic and best Italian food as pizza, pasta deserts, coffee and natural ice cream.what ever you want ,you can get there.
My favourite restaurant for lunch in Dubai!! Great place to taste what real Italian food is all about. Quality service, nice ambiance and peaceful surrounding help to relax and enjoy your meal. And authentic Italian desserts like Babà Napolitano will make you wish to return and have more...))
Cordialità e servizio x gustare un'ottima pizza lontano dalla nostra Italia... Complimenti ottimo anche il prezzo
the best italian restaurant in jbr dont miss to order ice cream is really woowwww
The best Italian restaurant in Dubai!! the service is excellent! See you soon
Location bellissima con questo lago davanti a noi mentre ceni circondato da questi grattaceli con una bellissima moschea a lato... pizza buonissima... ma la burrata mi ha colpito assai.. ti senti veramente in Italia.. poi il sig. MASSIMO una persona piacevolissima e gentile.. Dubai è fortunata ad avercelo rubato!!
i ordered pizza tonight for the kids but could not resist it , i took 2 slices myself. massimo the pizza is yummy the best i had in dubai, and it got here in 20 min, wow, it was hot and fresh , i even put it for 3 min in the oven , tasted straight out of the oven from napoli
Look no further. Hands down to the best Gelato in Town! This place has an amazing authentic Italian Gelato that gets as good as you could imagine, and while still on the light side (that's when you can tell your Gelato is really good). The taste and texture are there in every single flavor. I loved the salted caramel, and its melting texture. Dark chocolate, lemon sorbet are also great. The place offers indoor and outdoor options though I would recommend going for outdoors. The place also offers discounts through the loyalty programs, delivers home and has its app with loyalty points. Highly recommended!
It’s my favourite restaurant in the hole Dubai. Pizza, ravioli, gnocchi, gelato. Everything we have tried was so delicious! I would compare the food quality to high cuisine, the only difference it’s delivered in simple packages.
The customer service given by Paschal was excellent. He was such a professional at his job and the food was worth the wallet
Have been frequent visitors here. Love the food, risotto especially. The gelato they prepare is also one of the best in quality. The view from the restaurant overlooking the marina is beautiful.
The best and most authentic italian restaurant we've tried in UAE.We had the Bruschetta as a starter and a Tagliatelle Bolognese plus a Margherita Pizza as main meals.Finally we had gelato for our dessert.Everything was spot on and for the 1st time ever I'll give a restaurant a 10/10.The service was also perfect from Tristan and all other staff members.
Me and my family dined in here last July 9 to celebrate my birthday. I'd like to thank April who helped us with our reservation, she was very helpful and patient. We were welcomed warmly by their staff and attended to our needs.. also, big thanks to Rein who took care of us during our dining, he made sure we have everyhting that we need. 😊 i think it was a bad decision of us to sit outside because it's summer and their air cooler isn't enough for us to stay comfortable.. though the view is nice I will still recommend to eat inside first.. they provide free bread appetizer which is nice.. we ordered seafood pasta, pizza, cod and tuna as our main dishes. I would say the best was the 4 cheese pizza. The pepperoni was too spicy for us.. pasta is not that great.. their fish dishes can still be improved.. the highlight of the night was the tiramisu cake.. since it was my bday, they gave us free cake and it was the best tiramisu I ever tasted here in dubai. It got finished instantly!
The location is very beautiful, in Dubai Marina Walk. It's right next to the water. The service is also good!
Arancini was nice but it has a little too much saffron which over powers the rest of the taste.
The Paccheri alla siciliana was amaaaaaazing!
The Tiramisu was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!
Must visit atleast once!
Massimos Italian Restaurant, what a hidden gem are you. We live in palm jumeirah and recently we discovered this Italian Restaurant. We thought order food for lunch since it’s an weekend and it was truly worth money. We ordered chicken pizza which was delivered hot and tasted incredible in their sexy looking pizza box. Grill octopus was delicious as well and thank god it was’nt chewy at all. Star of the meal was gelato box. It was yummy in the tummy. Looking forward to go with friends for dine-in soon. Extremely Recommendable. Cheers....
Amazing location with beautiful view of Marina.
We had ordered Seabass with zucchini crust which was cooked to perfection still juicy and succulent from inside &
Tagliatelle Porcini and Gamberetti quite possibly the best pasta I ever had !
For dessert we went for Wheat tart which was very well balanced in flavour and not overly sweet.
Restaurant vibe and friendly staff is like cherry on top.
So usually come here for the Cotoletta, introduced to me by an Italian friend a few years back. That, for me, is by far the best dish on the menu. The pizza is also great and authentic and the Gelato’s rich and flavorful. A bit pricey for the experience, but the quality is consistent. Parking is tricky, with free parking but blink and you’ll miss it.
What a beautiful restaurant. Stunning view, delicious food (I recommend the Alfredo tagliatelle con porcini and burrata). The nicest staff and waiters!
Perfect Pizza
Typical pizza delivery box, but they have their own driver, so it came Hot!!!
Taste
The pizza was just outstanding, without a doubt one of the best in Dubai
Price
Here they lose a star as it's super expensive, but as a treat I may order again once in a while. However I'm sure they'd make a lot more money if they had more reasonable prices
We came to Massimo’s in Dubai Marina and had an amazing lunch! Food was above my personal expectations and the service was absolutely outstanding. Their staff is so friendly and kind, they can advice dishes based on your preferences and are always around to help along the experience. I can’t wait for the next weekend to return and order my favorite baked aubergine parmigiana and sea bass with crispy zucchini. Also - make sure you leave some space for their delicious gelato + tiramisu!!! You won’t regret it :)
This restaurant serves the best Italian food in Dubai! The service is absolutely amazing, their friendly team takes care of you from the moment you step into the restaurant until the very end of your experience. The view from the terrace is stunning! Will definitely be back :)
Authentic homemade Italian food at its best. The best Italian restaurant I’ve been to in Dubai. My favorite from the menu would be the Pappardelle with Porcini and Truffle sauce, the Mushroom Ravioli with mushroom and truffle sauce and the shrimps in garlic, olive oil and chilly pepper.
Authentic, quality Italian food. Delicious!
All their food is amazing !
Best Italian food in town!! Not only the food is amazing but most of the clients are Italians. Its like a trip to Italy. Must try
First time here. The service is amazing: don’t have to look for waiters if you need anything, they see you and react immediately. The food was very good, well deserved 5 stars.
Amazing dinner with my daughter as usual seafood spaghetti was delicious
I've finally found a place that makes tiramisu just the way it should be - not dry, and oozing with coffee. Love it! Also such a huge fan of your veggie lasagna which is so flavorful and never disappointing.
Lovely location on the water away from the hustle and bustle of Dubai next to a beautiful mosque. Pizza was good and excellent fried calamari. Drinks are only non-alcoholic since the restaurant is not in a hotel but definitely worth a visit for the pizza and the location.
Massimo's is an authentic Italian restaurant and pizzeria on the other, less busy side of Dubai Marina Walk. If driving there (advisable in this weather) it's best to park in visitor's parking area of the Park Island Residence where the restaurant is located; there are signs just outside the parking area which will guide you down to The Walk and the restaurant. My first thought on entering Massimo's was how much its high-ceilinged interior reminded me of the foyer area of a building. Modern and clean it may be, cosy it certainly is not. At this time of year, however, all that really matters is how well the a/c work and theirs works perfectly.
I liked the gelato but some flavors can be too sweet so definitely taste before ordering. Milk Cherry and Cappuccino were my favorite. Scoop pricing was a bit strange.
So far one of the best Italian Restaurants in Dubai. It was recommended by my friend previously and last evening I visited the restaurant. The food was really good as well as the ambience. We ordered for Tagliatelle Porcini e Gamberetti, Tagliatelle Bolognese, Risotto ai Funghi Porcini and Mashed Potato and those were really good and tasty. I would definitely go there again to try their other dishes on the menu. GRAZIE PER IL CIBO FANTASTICO
Regular customer here, atmosphere is very nice with a beautiful view on the marina, tables outside available.
Food is very good, i’d say the best quality/price around.
I’m italian and the food here is properly Italian.
Strongly recommended.
The place is wonderful it’s behind al mulla mosque very nice place and the staff are nice we ordered from the special menu we had truffle risotto and the fried calamari and shrimp wth carrots and zucchini they were yummy but the panna cotta was not that creamy but it was ok loved the atmosphere there💕
The ambiance and outdoor seating area overlooking the marina are great, menu ihas a good selection of dishes . Food and service are very good but a bit overpriced
Ordered a couple of times through Deliveroo. Despite it being a bit far, the food has always arrived warm — even the pizza! Pasta orders always come in plates that are almost full, so you definitely get what you pay for. Their tiramisu isn’t half bad and you can actually tell it’s been dipped in coffee and, unlike many other Italian restaurants, the mascarpone doesn’t taste stale.
Wonderful restaurant, attentive service and in the backlight of the Dubai Marina Mosque which is absolutely exquisite at night. Food was fantastic, I had the seafood linguine, cooked absolutely perfect and was mouth wateringly divine. Deffo will come again!!
The place has been under my building for years and didn’t know how good it was until i tried it few months back based on a friend’s recommendation. Location is nice and the food is very good. I have tried their pizza and pasta and i was very happy with the quality. I recently discovered their gelato and its unbelievable. I highly recommend it as a casual and good Italian food.
So far one of the better Italian restaurant in Dubai, visited by me. Still waiting to see the best one and this isn’t bad at all!
Located adjacent to the beautiful Mosque at Dubai Marian walk. This place has both indoor and outdoor seating just as other places in the area. Ambience is all white which gives a soothing feeling.
Staff is cheerful and prompt.
They have a good range of pizza, pasta, ravioli and desserts. You can create your own pizza or pasta and the taste is quite good. Key ingredients such as cheese and olive oil are also quite close to the taste of real Italian food if you have eaten in Italy. Desserts such as tiramisu was also served nicely and tasted 👌🏻👌🏻
This place is definitely a must go if you are in Marina and craving for good Italian food. Entertainer works here as well!

I liked this place for its location and every food that we ordered was good and the presentation of the food was much more pleasing . The pizza was amazing , along with accompaniments that came along, it gave me sense of feeling that everything was fresh.
A real Italian restaurant !! The pizza is a must ! A thin crust, very authentic flavored pizza.
The Gelatti is homemade with very interesting flavors. I would say flavors we never see in Dubai.
Ambiance is quite, outside seating, quite and facing the marina.
Hidden Gem in Marina, simple seating but offering a nice view and amazing pasta.
The service was fast and the staff is friendly.
Must try for italian cuisine lovers
We love ordering pizza from Massimo's. It's really great pizza and when I request no plastic straws or plastic bags--it's so bad for the environment-- they listen! They send the drinks in a paper bag. Now I don't feel guilty about ordering takeout. Thanks!!
Hands down .. THE BEST ICECREAM/GELATO in Dubai ..
Totally addicted ..shame it’s not more popular or known.. just wish they had more fruity flavors!

Very authentic Italian food! Pizza and pastas are delicious. Nice atmosphere right on the Dubai Marina perfect for a little date night. Tonight I tried the burrata salad, carbonara pasta, paccheri con cernia pasta & lemon sorbet. All very nice flavors and exactly what I was craving! ❤️
I ordered for delivery Pizza several times and I have never been disappointed! The pizzas are great and the quality of the ingredients superlatives! The restaurant is on the marina walk, the view from the windows is beautiful and the personnel very kind! I would definitely recommend this place for a original Italian food experience !
This is the best Italian restaurant I've been to yet, the ravioli are filled well, perfect proportion and it'll burst in your mouth with flavors. The lasagna is the best I've had, but aglio olio wasn't my favourite
It has been already a while that Massimos has known for his simple, traditional and delicious authentic Italian food.
The gelato is just another level compared to the cheap commercial and full of sugar that had been sold around, silky smooth and with the right amount of sugar.
Massimo rocks
We are regulars and order the salmon tartare very often. There are days when they make it very tasty and there are days when they just bring avocado and very less salmon. We ordered twice today in hope that they will make it better the second time but unfortunately it was very very chunky big pieces of avocado and bread was cold.
Today’s chef not the best at all.
Risotto was fine but I got it with prawns, clams and muscles instead of octopus, clams and muscles as it wan on the menu.
pizza good as always, delivery before time
Fruit platter need to improve - gelato top
One of the best pastas in town
Good pizza with tasty ingredients and we'll cooked, crispy but soft. I'll go back for the gelato,i had a small taste of nocciola and it was good.
pizza as always very good
Got to be one of the best pizzas in town.
Quick delivery , good food ...
They were so prompt and the food was just amazing!
We went yesterday to Massimo’s for dinner for the first time, as we moved to marina we walked several times there and place looked cozy so we decided to try it. Food was really tasty we tried pizza and tiramisu . Only thing the waiters should be trained as they are really not organized
Best Italian food in Dubai! Authentic Italian food where I especially enjoy their raviolis and pastas. They offer freshly made pastas which I opt for. Amazing views onto the marina especially when sat outside. Would recommend chocolate fondant as desert and the pappardelle with truffle.
We were recommended this place by some Italian people so we were quite certain that it would be good Italian food and it did totally live up to it. We had a pasta penne in pink sauce , a vegetarian pizza and a really nice side order of mashed potatoes . Every thing was perfect. No place left for dessert but will surely go back to try the tiramisu .
One of the best restaurant experiences in a long time. They had the reservation, set the table ready for the group and allowed us to enjoy our dinner.
The dinner itself was just so yummy each dish was just so rightly done. The Aubergine parmigiana was the best dish of all that we had and the Tiramisu was just as how it should be moist and creamy with just the right amount of sweet.
The only let down was the margarita pizza which is very surprising- hopefully it was a aberration.
Highly recommend this place for a quite dinner or a celebration and while at it don’t miss the gelato!!
Massimo's an italian casual dining restaurant is located at marina walk. Me and a friend decided to try this place for dinner and it was a good experience. Being vegetarian we ordered for Veg Lasage and Margherita Buffalo Pizza that were good options. Their prices are reasonable for overall quality and staff service was satisfactory. The outdoor dining option at this place is just perfect for this pleasant weather. I can definetely recommend anyone looking forward to dine at this place.
Really impressed by the food. We had the freshly grilled seabass and the home made ravioli. I would say its the best Italian in Dubai Marina. However, the service can be improved. There were only 4 tables including us and at least 3 waiters but the service was very slow and not very attentive.
Wonderful food. We had the gnocchi with zucchini and a margarita pizza. The gnocchi was excellent, cooked to perfection and very tasty. The pizza had a great base and just the right amount of cheese. The service was quick and friendly. The complementary bread warm and fresh and the garlic bread some of the best we’ve had. Highly recommended.
Great place at the Marina with nice outside area.
Excellent service, solid Italian food, especially the homemade pasta is great!
We will be back!
Il cibo é Delizioso e il personale e soprattutto il proprietario Massimo sono gentilissimi, il gelato é divino! E mi piace la vita che mettono nella qualità. Very Italian food style
We never been to this restaurant but we always order our Friday night pizzas from there !
They use authentic Italian ingredients. Pizzas are in a very good size. And price are not overwhelming.
I recommend it regularly to friends and people who are visiting from out of town. The food was outstanding and beautifully presented.and the service was fine and good
The food is amazing and the decor also. The stuff is great. The only bad point is the position, it's a bit hidden from the hotspot of marina

This italian is serving food made with love, you can really taste it! Hand-made pasta was melting on mouth, pizza crust was better than any we've tasted before and desserts... no words, we were just smiling and enjoying.
Massimo himself was a great host, welcoming people to restaurant personally. And that makes dinner experience even better, when restaurant has faces and not just anonymous staff. It's popular place, but we managed to get walk-in-table at 8pm, later it might be difficult. Highly recommended place!
We came across this restaurant randomly, as we were walking around Marina. The food was AMAZING! I had the Fileto di Manzo al Pepe Verde and I loved it! The meat was perfectly cooked and the sauce was lovely. the rest of my family had pizza - ate the entire thing! Portions are perfect (pizza being on the larger side) and everything tasted really authentic! It was a flashback to Italy. Ingredients tasted extremely fresh, service was excellent and the place looked spotless!
Excellent Italian thin crust pizza and their main course dishes are also very good. A bit on the expensive side.
Their appetizers are very well done and tasty.
The location is very nice, it is getting a bit better but it is still too hidden. But is nice when you find out this little gem by the water. It is a really a lovely Italian restaurant with authentic cuisine serving also a very good pizza. Their parmigiana and Lasagne alla Bolognese are classically delicious, but I like sometimes to have Pumpkin Ravioli with Sage , Gnocchi alle zucchine or Vegetarian Lasagna. PS Their tiramisu tastes like homemade
Great place and a nice ambiance
Providing Beautiful and large dining area with beautiful interiors or amazing decorations
Great Italian food I have ever had
We tried their
Crust pizza
Eggplant Parmesan
And delicious mouth watering chocolate cake
Food they served was so amazing
Great food on a great price
Highly Recommended place to all
Massimo's has become my "go to restaurant" for a decent pizza in Dubai, I've tried dozens of italian pizzerias, but none compared to Massimo's.
Very good food, decent service and good delivery, all in all a great option in Dubai Marina
Great Italian food, excellent fresh juices and smoothies, and great Gelato. The owner is friendly and passionate and takes comments seriously. I come here all the time.
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Massimo's is located in the Park Island Residence in Dubai Marina with great seating away from the busier parts of the marina. When visiting an Italian restaurant, my go to dish is pizza because I love it! However another dish caught my attention at Massimo's; the Linguine Di Gragnano Ai Frutti Mare aka the seafood linguine. Although Im not a fan of tomato based pasta sauces, this dish was an exception! The linguine pasta was perfectly al dente, the calamri, prawns, and mussels although a tad over cooked were delicious, fresh and flavourful. The dish was brought together perfectly by the basil tomato sauce which was not too sour and highlighted the other components. Would definitely go back just for this dish!
We also ordered the Boscaiola Pizza which was light and delightful although I would have preferred a slightly thicker crust on the pizza as it got a bit soggy from the sauce. Another star dish was the Frittura Di Calamari Gamberi E Verdurine. Which was a starter dish of fried battered calamari, prawns, and thin stick of zucchini and carrot. Perfectly seasoned and fried which is rare ro find in Dubai.
All in all, a winner Italian event!
We had the burrata with tomatoes and basil, pumpkin ravioli and boscoala pizza and all were excellent. The service was attentive and the setting simple and chic. Would come again when in Marina.
