Eataly was founded in Turin in 2007, with the goal of spreading its passion for quality food all over the globe. Just six years later, Eataly arrived in the UAE and introduced high quality Italian gastronomy and produce to the Middle East, via this store and restaurant in the enormous Dubai Mall.
The extensive menu at Eataly Dubai Mall covers all your favourite dishes from all over Italy, from Neapolitan pizza and Roman pasta dishes like carbonara and cacio e pepe, to to delicious meat, fish, and vegetable recipes. The menu kicks off with typical antipasti like minestrone soup, bruschetta and arancini, before offering a selection of fresh, seasonal salads and pasta and risotto dishes from all over Italy. Try the rigatoni arrabiatta if you like something a bit spicy, or a risotto of peas and broad beans if you want something fresh and green in the summer months.
There are also pizzas galore, sharing dishes of cheese and cured meats, as well as sharing pizzas and pasta pots. And don't forget mains such as Naples'style grilled chicken breast, Milanese veal cutlet or 'scottadito' lamb chops.
As well as the huge lunch and dinner menu, Eataly also lays on an indulgent breakfast, as well as a special kids menu for your little bambino. There are also plenty of hot drinks, teas, coffees and, of course, a quality espresso for those on the go. Best of all, Eataly practices what it preaches, which means everything you eat uses the very best produce - durum wheat pasta from Gragnano, Piedmont’s egg pasta, mineral water from the Marittime Alps, Ponente Riviera Ligure oil, Piedmont’s fassone meat, and traditional Italian cheese and cold cuts.
As well as dining at the restaurant, guests can shop to their heart's content and pick up a huge range of top-quality Italian products, from olive oils and pastas to cheese, meat and even fresh truffles.
