Food 3

Pizza Net +5

“From the authentic pizza to every dish on the menu, it’s hands-down the best quality I’ve had in Dubai.”
Tiramisu Net +3

“The Tiramisu was exceptional — the mascarpone was luxuriously smooth and airy, layered with perfectly soaked ladyfingers that carried the ideal balance of espresso bitterness and cocoa sweetness. It had that classic melt-in-the-mouth texture and a light, creamy finish.”
Salmon Net +2

“the food was out of this world i tried the salmon it was mouthwatering, and what i appreciate it the most is that they have a smoking area just there so you don’t need to go outside the place for a smoke, and the vibe we got for the birthday was lovely, i want to thank the staff one by one and i reccomend it every time❤️”

Food 4

Truffle pizza Net −1

“• Truffle Pizza: 4/10”
Truffle ravioli Net −1

“The “tagliata di manzo” was a few millimetres from being a carpaccio, and I’m inclined to say the truffle ravioli use aromatics rather than truffle. Food was overall tasty, but was missing a little soul.”

The Bottom Line

Mamma Maria is an Italian restaurant in Business Bay built around two things: Italian food and a striking Burj Khalifa outlook. It is a natural choice for a date night, anniversary or birthday, particularly if you can secure a window table. Reviews mention wood-fired pizza, lasagna, spinach ravioli, carpaccio di manzo and tagliata di manzo, with tiramisu repeatedly standing out among the desserts.

The food feedback is positive overall but not completely uniform. Several diners describe fresh, well-presented dishes and authentic flavours; others found the food average for the price. Specific misses include salty, dry cacio e pepe, oily fries and salad, and a truffle pizza and lasagna that disappointed one guest.

The tiramisu, thin-crust pizza and escalope Milanese receive more convincing praise. Service is one of the steadier strengths, with reviews describing attentive, professional staff and thoughtful celebration arrangements, including birthday songs, desserts and even a performance. There is also an on-site smoking area.

Before arriving, factor in paid valet parking—reported at AED 30—and note that the restaurant shares restrooms with the spa and hotel. If you want a tranquil dinner, ask about the evening setup: one review found the music loud and birthday celebrations disruptive.
