The upscale seafood restaurant brings a taste of Southern Italy to Dubai.
Italian seafood restaurant L’Amo Bistro del Mare has officially opened its doors at the Dubai Harbour Yacht Club, offering an alfresco dining experience with stunning sea views.
The restaurant’s interiors are highlighted by neutral tones of beige and wood, with terrazzo style tiles, characteristic of traditional Southern Italian restaurants. Fitted with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and 360-degree vistas of the Cruise terminal, Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island and Ain Dubai, the space is flooded with natural light allowing the skyline views to take centre stage.
Seafood lovers will want to tour the restaurant’s fresh fish display, where the daily catch can be picked and cooked to order. The seafood journey boasts a variety of daily imports from the Mediterranean, including Sicily and the Adriatic Sea. The restaurant will also serve a selection of Calvisius caviar imported from Brescia, Italy.
Standing at the helm of L’Amo Bistro del Mare’s culinary offerings is Executive Chef Lorenzo Buccarini. His signature dishes include Spaghettone Cacio & Pepe E Ricci Di Mare, a traditional spaghetti Mancini served with pecorino cheese, delicate sea urchin, and a dash of black pepper, and the Risotto Zafferano Scampi E Caviale, a fragrant saffron risotto served with perfectly cooked langoustine and Oscietra caviar. Meat enthusiasts will likely appreciate the Wagyu Alla Griglia; a grilled wagyu ribeye cooked to one’s preference.
The curated menu also offers up some of Italy’s most beloved desserts such as the Profiterole, a delicate chou pastry filled with an indulgent in-house hazelnut cream and topped with roasted hazelnuts or the ‘Baba’, a deliciously decadent cake soaked in a traditional citrus syrup, served with freshly made pastry cream.
In addition to the tempting food menu, guests can enjoy an impressive collection of 300 grape labels imported from Italy. L’Amo Bistro del Mare also boasts an outdoor terrace ideal for sundowners and serviced by a separate bar with low-lying lounge tables.
L’Amo Bistro del Mare is the latest opening from Sunset Hospitality Group, who are also behind SUSHISAMBA Dubai, AURA Skypool & Lounge, DREAM and the soon-to-open ATTIKO and MOTT 32.
