VIVALDI BY ALFREDO RUSSO

مطعم إيطالي داخل فندق شيراتون كريك …

المشكلة في المطاعم الإيطالية هو انه عندهم منيو جدا كبيرة واشياهم غير معروفة …

البيتزا والباستا وأنواع المكرونات .. كلها تحوم حولين هذا الشيء بس ياريت يراعوا هذا الشيء وتكون عندهم قائمة للأشياء الرئيسية والأكثر مبيعا … ولي حابب ويعرف أنواع أخرى ممكن يعطوه المنيو التفصيلية …

Bella vista sul Dubai creek.
Cucina buona e veramente italiana

I chose this place because the menu looked interesting with affordable prices and great view, however it’s not a restaurant where I would return again for different reasons.
Me and my partner reserved a table with the creek view next to the glass to celebrate a special occasion, my name day, kind of celebration widely known in the south of Italy. Nevertheless we felt that the staff was sneering about it and did not take it seriously, and as a result when we reached the place the waiter wanted to accommodate us at the first available table at the entrance, which was not matching our needs at all. Since we spoke on the phone about the location of the table and the special occasion, it felt kind of disrespectful to be treated like we didn’t have any conversation. I informed the waiter of the mistake and finally he offered us the table with a view, but it was not reserved by them and available only thanks to luck. Also, they didn’t have many customers, and still the personnel did not find time to be a little bit more welcoming, in fact kept the communication very basic.
The food was good but not exceptional. The oil and vinegar on the table didn’t have any kind of taste or smell, sign of a poor quality. Their chef signature pasta with burrata and eggplants was over cooked. It might be acceptable for other cuisines but clearly not okay in an Italian restaurant.
Pizza, minestrone and parmigiana were acceptable.
They managed to arrange a special cake for the occasion under request of my partner, that’s why I can give more than one star.
Please improve the service and the food quality because the location is nice and has potential.

Its in the lobby of sheraton dubai creek. Scene is nice, smoking is allowed (no cigar smoking only cigarette and non intense cigarillos) menu is good. An ideal place to enjoy sun set and your drink in Dubai.

Brunch date! We got the best spot as we arrived a but early for brunch. Food is lovely we enjoyed it!
