The address
Il Ristorante - Niko Romito
Il Ristorante sits within Bvlgari Resort Dubai, on the island of Jumeira Bay, set back from the city's rush. The menu is shaped by Niko Romito, the Abruzzo chef behind the dining rooms of Bvlgari hotels: clear Italian cooking built on few elements, where each plate says exactly what it holds.
The MICHELIN Guide Dubai awarded it two stars in its 2025 edition, a distinction held since the guide's first edition in 2022; the 2026 selection is revealed on 6 October 2026. The room is quiet, service is precise, and the expected dress is elegant without being stiff.
Covers are limited and winter weekends fill early. TGZ, an independent house, passes on your request according to the house's rules, often finds a date close to the one you wanted, and tells you simply when it is not possible.
