Vjraggs, TripAdvisor Reviewer

Authentic Italian food accompanied with wonderful service. We really enjoyed our dinner at Splendido restaurant as the whole atmosphere especially on the outdoor terrace was just incredible and food perfectly prepared! Seafood spaghetti were one of the best we had since living in Dubai and burrata salad was absolutely up to the standard. Prosciutto pizza was prepared with excellence and appropriate white wine was suggested by the staff to complement the meal in the best way.
