The Bottom Line

Ritzi is a polished Italian restaurant on Marina Walk in Dubai Marina, drawing people for dinner, date nights and relaxed meals by the water. You can sit indoors or on the terrace, with reviews highlighting the Marina views, Italian music and a warm, romantic setting. The food is strongest around classic Italian comfort dishes.

Salmon pasta, carbonara, truffle risotto and pizzas all receive specific praise: the salmon pasta was called outstanding, while the carbonara was creamy and came with generous parmesan. The Carmen Geiss pizza, burrata salad and lasagna are other dishes reviewers singled out. Save space for the pistachio mascarpone dessert or panna cotta.

Service is generally attentive without feeling intrusive, and several reviewers appreciated staff recommendations. Wine, Prosecco, cocktails and mocktails are also mentioned positively, including a Passionfruit Martini and Spanish coffee. There are a few practical cautions.

Smoking is allowed, and one guest reported that people were smoking throughout the venue, so ask about seating if that matters to you. Another visit found no salt, pepper, olive oil or fresh parmesan on the table, and described the extra-ordered bread as old. Overall, it suits an atmospheric evening more than a quick, purely functional meal.
