What to Avoid (3)

Food 2

  1. Clams Net −1
    “The place looks so nice from outside and their seating set up is appealing with the fresh air during winter, the quality of the food isn't great. I was very disappointed with my order Vongole, first dish it was so salty and too spicy and I informed them they replaced it but the 2nd time the clams had sand on it and it is shocking lots of sand, I had two spoons of the spaghetti as I was too hungry but didn't eat the clams, I wanted to mention to them but got carried away with the conversation with my friend.”
  2. Vongole Net −1

Drinks 1

  1. Moroccan tea Net −1
    “One more thing is Moroccan tea was too strong and not the original taste of a Moroccan tea so best focus on what you're good at and not mix cuisines or stuff not related to Japanese cuisine which considered your speciality.”

The Bottom Line

La Letizia is a Dubai Marina café and shisha restaurant built around its waterfront setting. The outdoor terrace looks across the marina and skyline, while the indoor space has soft lighting, cave-themed décor, and comfortable corners for lingering. It works for coffee, breakfast, a relaxed meal, billiards, or an evening shisha session.

Breakfast is a strong starting point. Reviews specifically recommend the Eggs Benedict with salmon, French Toast, and the Classic Breakfast Platter, with generous portions mentioned in one family lunch visit. For later meals, customers highlight the Wagyu Sand, lamb chops, dynamite shrimp, sushi rolls, and grilled dishes.

Presentation can be theatrical, with smoke effects and edible flowers appearing on some plates. Shisha is available from the afternoon onwards, and the terrace has a broad flavour selection; staff can guide beginners. Drinks also get attention, including honey latte, mojitos, and the shareable ice cube latte.

Billiards, power banks, and blankets are mentioned as useful extras. The main caution is value. Several reviewers found prices high, while one reported a disappointing £65 steak and another found sand in a replaced Vongole dish.

Check prices and dish details before ordering, especially if you are visiting for a full dinner rather than coffee or small bites.
