“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.”

Try Dinner. Consider lunch or dinner if you want the broader-looking menu; one breakfast review specifically preferred those meal periods.
Shisha Timing. Plan shisha for the afternoon or later, as one review says it is not available during the morning.
Choose Terrace. For winter visits, ask for the outdoor seating to enjoy fresh air, low lounge-style seats, and the marina view.
Check Pricing. Ask about prices before ordering a full meal, particularly steak, since reviews describe the menu as pricey and one £65 steak disappointed.
Share Drinks. The ice cube latte is large enough to share, according to one review, making it more practical for a group.

Some diners consider the menu expensive for the area and question its value, especially for a full meal.
One Friday-night diner paid £65 for steak that arrived as bland slices over reheated rice.
A Vongole order was replaced after being too salty and spicy, but the second serving still contained sandy clams.
One breakfast visitor found it difficult to explain their order and suggested more menu training for waitstaff.
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.
