AUTHENTIC ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN DUBAI
Ciao Bella is inspired by Bella, raised in a loud Italian kitchen by day and a little mischievous after dark. Warm, generous and comforting at heart, the menu celebrates classic Italian flavours with subtle modern twists. As the evening unfolds, the mood turns bolder, cheekier and more playful, just like Bella herself. Set in the heart of Dubai, Ciao Bella is a relaxed, colourful bistro where great food, Italian charm and genuine hospitality come naturally.
THE BREAKFAST
LUNCH AND DINNER
At Ciao Bella, we serve generous, flavourful Italian food rooted in tradition with a modern touch. From fresh antipasti and handmade pastas to Roman-style pizzas, grilled seafood and comforting mains, every dish is made with quality ingredients and thoughtful technique.
THE Drinks
At Ciao Bella, the drinks menu celebrates Italian drinking culture with a mix of aperitivo favourites, classic cocktails and carefully selected wines. From Aperol Spritz, Bellini and Negroni to martinis, gin tonics and zero-alcohol options, there is something for every occasion. The wine list also features Italian and international labels, making Ciao Bella the perfect spot for after-work drinks, aperitivo or a relaxed evening in Dubai Media City.
THE TERRACE
Step out onto Sicily, our breezy outdoor terrace that brings a slice of southern Italy to Dubai. With warm lighting, chilled beats, and fresh air, it’s the perfect spot for alfresco dining, after work drinks or weekend vibes. Sip on spritzes, share a few small plates, and soak up the relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere. Whether it’s lunch in the sun or cocktails under the stars, Sicily is one of Media City’s coolest terraces.
EVENTS & PROMOTIONS
Salute - Aperitivo
Unwind the Italian way with Salute, our daily Aperitivo ritual inspired by Bella herself for only AED 39 for one drink and Cicchetti. She grew up watching her family signal the end of the day the same way every time: a clink of glasses, a small bite, and a moment to slow down before the night took on its own personality. Now in Dubai, Bella keeps that tradition alive, but with her own playful twist.
Daily – 5pm to 7pm
New Menu, Same Bella
Bella has grown up, but her love for Italian food, family and connection remains at the heart of Ciao Bella. The new menu journeys through the regions of Italy, bringing together comforting classics, coastal flavours and playful dishes in a fresh, contemporary way.
Daily | As per normal operating hours
Ciao Bella Business Lunch
Your 45-minute break, made better with a business lunch crafted by our chefs using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Enjoy a starter and main for AED 95, with the option to add a glass of wine for AED 35 simple, flavourful, and fuss-free.
Monday to Friday | 12pm to 3pm
Fonduta Venerdi - Fondue and wine
Fonduta Venerdì brings that same warm, indulgent energy to Dubai. Dig into endless Italian fondue made from a lush blend of Pecorino, Fontina, Parmesan, Taleggio, and Gorgonzola, served with all the right things to dip, nibble, and share. The team keeps the wine flowing, still or sparkling, because Bella always said cheese is good, but cheese with wine is where the magic happens. Make sure to keep some appetite for the bottomless chocolate fondue!
Fridays | 7pm to 10pm
