We enjoyed this restaurant and would definitely return. It is good Italian at a fair (local) price. They bring complimentary bread and marinara, which is always nice.Margarita Pizza- we liked the pizza. The crust was amazing, from texture to flavor. Many crusts lack salt but this one had great seasoning. Due to the thin crust, make sure this is not your only order.Funghi Risotto- the risotto was decent and quite large.4 Cheese Gnocchi- the gnocchi was very good. It was actually light and fluffy. The sauce was delicious and had this dried fruit that added an interesting flair.

I visited the restaurant on a work launch break with my colleagues.They were very committed to the precautions of covid-19 which is always good.The staff was very welcoming and the manager oversees the service and was so hospitable, he was so excited to hear this was our first visit to the restaurant, he offered us a dessert, it was delicious and it was a nice ending to our mealAs for the atmosphere, the decor is good nothing fancy, we enjoyed the music; it definitely reflects the Italian vibe. I can imagine the experience would be different at night at the outdoor tables.We tried the launch offer, it was a good price.As for the food:The bread basket and complimentary sauce is so delicious.Personally I was expecting the pizza margarita would be better, it was dry.We had the Caesar salad, it was good nothing fancy. The quinoa salad comes with minimal seasoning, you can add olive oil or balsamic dressing offered at the table.The fettuccine was good as well, is what you expect this dish to taste like.I would come again to explore the menu more.

Sooo yummy both Lets pizza & mushroom pizza

I taste the desserts and it was very delicious i well come back for food next time

One of the best Italian restaurants in Riyadh 🤩 Penne al ragu di pollo is my favourite very delicious and creamy 😍 And I like Marinara pizza so yummy 😍

Good place, seating, atmosphere, delicious fresh bread, great firewood naked pizza.. but the olive oil was rancid, soup was canned I suppose. I would come again for the place and great service, not so much the food, but then again, they stepped up to their name and I didnt try the pasta, salads, or desserts.

Yesterday was a very good and memorable Iftar party.hosted by Carlo Migliora, Luca Maria Falzoni and Andrea Boscolo

Timoty was our waitress he was very friendly and provided service with smile. He helped us to decide on our orders. We tried their signature salad and it was delicious. Also we tried their pizza and I LOVED IT. We also ordered the Melanzane Alla parmigiana and it was yum

It is worth experienceVery nice and deliciousThe staff was very welcoming and they offered us a dessert 🧁tiramisuWhich was the best tiramisu I have ever tasted 😋Thanks for generousThanks for the nice time .

I was working in jeddah branch, i was happy to find Margherita in riyadh but when i tried it i feel big difference , difference with food tasting and the restaurant is empty not same the one in jeddah ..... insalata di pollo is the best

Lovely 🇮🇹 vibes.

If want quite and romantic place this is the placeThe music and the atmosphere is really goodWe tried the mushroom soup it was really out of this world it a must item to try. We also tried pizza and the oven gnocchi was goodThe service was really attended and good

Very delicious food, friendly staff

What a delightful experience. Located in a high end plaza with other restaurants. Food was excellent. Fresh bread with compliments and a tasty tomatoes dip. The Salmon and Avocado starter was huge and the Pizza with homemade beef sausage was incredibly delicious. Finished it off with the Creme Brulee - awesome dish. Good value for money as well. Definitely worth several visits.

Really nice ambiance and decor, right down to the bathrooms. Start you off with a complimentary bread basket and a warm tomato sauce, a more spiced version of a marina sauce. Their choice of bruschetta is quite nice as is the overall menu. Good Italian food based on good ingredients.

Tamadan iftar only 99 SR and the food was very good also the service ..Very recommended

Original Italian cuisine!Its been a long time since Ive had good Italian food and I have to tell you this place really hit it on the head!!10/10 wold recommend!

Really nice pizza, fried shrimps & calamari not so much. The place is recommended.

Very nice 👍

*Atmosphere is great. However its very pricey..with less food quantity.*Paid 110 SR for four pieces of shrimp meal.

The place was nice and clean and the staff were friendlyThe truffle risotto was not badTruffle pizza was good

Great welcoming attitude with adorable selection of foods. Cozy place

The interior was very dull to be honest, it doesn’t reflect the quality of the place. I wasn’t very thrilled about the experience because of how it looked but when we sat down the whole experience shifted. Service was phenomenal and the food was very delicious! 👍🏼 I’d definitely come back again

Average food.The staff were very nice.Good outdoor view at the second floor.

True Italian aroma dishes. I enjoy most of courses, especially the honey & masters salat with the margarita and the special lasagna. Overall, amazing experiences with outside terrace!

The staff was amazing and friendly.Delicious desserts but the coffee was overly sweetened.The prices were on the high side.

Really one of the best Italian restaurants in Riyadh. The waiters and their service are outstanding, they are very nice and friendly. All the dishes that we ordered was very delicious specially the pizza. They have a fun game when you pay, you have to guess a number from 1 - 90, if the waiter got the same number you guessed, your food will be for FREE.We ordered:Margherita pizzaPepperoni pizzaPenne Pollo (Fettuccine with chicken)Rucola salad (Normal)Melanz Fungh (eggplant dish)Cream bruleeDrinks:1 Saudi champagn2 CocaCola2 Cappuccino1 Italiano1 Caramel macchiatoThe price was almost 430 SR.

Amazing food. Awesome cocktails.Great place to visit

North Riyadh has a new and authentic Italian restaurant, graced with my friend and excellent Italian Chef, Stephano. Onwards and upwards!

The best italian restaurant in Riyadh, fresh and delicious seafood and authentic italian cuisine. Pasta and pizza also the best. Nice atmosphere and very kind and quick service. 5 stars!!!

Best restaurant , best italian food i’ve ever had, AND best , friendly, professional staff ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I liked the atmosphere and service. Food is good but not wow.

The best italian experience in 3 years of Saudi life...thank u!!

Very nice Italian food, great staff and relaxed atmosphere. I really liked it and will go back

You want the closest quality and taste of real Italian food? Go there

Service was lovelyFood was okayThey have lunch offers

Nice place, sometimes when I feel like Italian food, I visit this restaurant.

Very nice and cosy restaurant in Riyadh, serving delicious and real Italian food. Stefano is a great chef and he always has some out of the menu delicious surprise to suggest. Difficult to say which is the best dish here: pasta is great, but also pizzas are very good and tasty too, not to mention the deserts. But if you like the deep fried food, try the paranza and you wont be let down!

One of the best Italian cuisine we tried1- chicken salad ( دي بولو)2- mushroom3- pizza ( pesto, pepperoni and vege)4 pasta ( arabiata and couple ones forgot their name)5- ended up with tiramisu and profiteroles

I have always visited this place for business lunch and found it excellent on every visit but my iftar experience was even better! The amount of food they serve in their Ramadan deal is too much. All fresh and perfect for sharing.For the service they deserve 10/10.Mr. Sameh (Manager on duty) over looked everything himself.He really knows what he is doing & he makes sure that guests leave satisfied.

Good service and good staff and good food also the place it’s cool 👌🏻😘🥰

Great staff and service - food was pretty average

I like the service in margherita 😍the waiter meal his the best 👍Beautiful please❤️

Delicious food, great service. I love Margherita Pizzeria, it is my go to Italian restaurant in Lebanon, I was so excited to learn that it has opened here in Riyadh, and they did not fail my high expectations of them, serving me and my family awesome Italian cuisine. The chef was also very nice to approach our table, to ask us to specify details of one of the dishes we have chosen, which turned out to taste exquisitely delicious. And the location is perfect.

Perfect, as an italian i can confirm it completely embodies what italian cousine is, food is so good and the service is impeccable not to mention we met the Cook so we know for sure that he is italian, but we didnt have any doubt about it after eating what he made for us.... perfect night we are gonna come again for sure

Very nice food and good service

Best original Neapolitan pizza to date .recommended order , grilled calamar , mushroom and rucola salad and pizza marguerita with fresh mozzarella . to die for ! fresh change .

Food okay.Service needs to be more professional.Wash room bad smell.

Nice ambiance, the pizza was good 👍🏻

You cut the shrimp to 4 pieces! Shame on you

If you are looking for the real Italian food in Saudi, you’ve just stumbled upon it. Half of the customers are Italian, and the food is really good! The seating is not so great though.

Beautiful traditional Italian food. The desserts are a bit of a let down, but what they lack in desserts they make up with their pizzas.

Welcoming staff and very nice service.Food is delicious and on pointThe view is nice from the terrace seating.The drinks are nice too, I recomend freezing margarita passion fruit. Really tasty and refreshing

Very tasty pizza, the interior and seating wasn’t great

Very nice Italian restaurant, my preferred I Riyadh

Great service from Jhany & Dilvar..

Italian restaurant with real Italian taste. Pizza is excellent (my favourite in Riyadh), pasta and lasagna are super tasty and made according the original recipe. Nice lottery at the end of the meal to win your free meal. I strongly recommend a visit. No doubt It will become your favourite Italian restaurant.

Delicious food with many choices. Attentive and friendly staff.

Real authentic Italian food. Always enjoy my dinner here. The staff is kind and always available to your requests.The food is amazing, the product always fresh and accurately selected from the market, the combinations proposed by the Chef are unique.Always recommended for a wonderful food experience.

Must try next time. Looks promising

The Pizza is so good, and they do reservations.For Pasta I just recommend Penne Al Ragu Di Polo it is very delicious, and I don’t recommend the Risotto.The service is very good!

Excellent food nice atmosphere and helpful staff that allowed us to just have drinks for a reunion. No other place in La Veranda allowed us to sit comfortably. They all had a time limit for being seated with only drinks.Of course we ended up with more than drinks.

I came here for dessert, friendly staff and quite welcoming. We came at an awkward time so very few customers. We did enjoy the desserts though, the panna cotta was very good and the profiteroles were filled with ice cream. One note would be that the chocolate sauce for the profiteroles felt artificial, potentially store bought? If they change that, it would greatly improve the dessert. I would come back for dinner and definitely the panna cotta!

Very good Italian Restaurant with medium prices.

Delicious food & nice staff

Quick service ,delicious food ,definitely will repeat the experienceWe tried :Caprese saladRavioli with pestoQuatero formaggiSweets are good but not the best creme brûlée 7/10

One of the best restaurants in Riyadh.. Chef Stefano brings the authentic Italian taste to Riyadh which you can’t find anywhere else

Average at best, no atmosphere, food slow to come, 30 mins for a steak and loose tops on the oil and vinegar led to a flooded plate, went elsewhere for dessert.

Best place to eat pizza...fud r litle bit late but its worth waiting for...all staff r nice..foods r so amazing..😉❤️

Best Italian Restaurant in RiyadhWe enjoyed the delicious kenwa salad and the Pesto pizza was excellent, service was great, we were assisted by the restaurant Manager Mr. Sameh suggested the menu for us and it is an excellent choice, the waiter introduced the meal for us and mentioned the ingredients of it.If you want good food, wonderful service and a nice atmosphere you should try this place you will not regret it.

We tried half margherita and have Spanish and it was nice, fettuccine wasnt that much, however the outdoor is so nice. Will give it a second chance

Delicious fettuccini and pizza 🍕Would definitely recommend this to anyone 😋😍👍🏼

Tasty food, great place, and great service. The staff is so friendly. Thank you all, especially Ashari & Niel ;)

Authentic italian cuisine with fresh and selected ingredients. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Seafood “ antipasto “ ( appetiser ) is delicious and what follows simply great ! Of course the pizza is excellent along with its freshly arrived mozzarellaI found also the prices very reasonable worth a regular visit

The best Italian restaurant in Riyadh.

Best italian restaurant in Riyadh so far: clean and neat place, lovely location, delicious pizza and amazing fresh seafood dishes.Oysters, sauted octopus and linguine with lobster were outstanding...couldn’t be better.Bravo all!Davide

For anyone looking for top quality Italian cuisine in Riyadh, visit here anytime of the day and you wont get disappointed.Hands down to their Italian chef and the rest of the crew for the excellent food and serviceP. S. I love their pizzas and risotto 😍😍

Very disappointing, Would never recommend

The service was great ! My waiter was Jared he was so helpful and nice 👍🏼👏🏼The food was good but nothing special , the atmosphere was great make sure you sit outdoors the weather was nice 💕

Being Italian, I can say that in this place you can taste the authentic Italian food. Add a special mood on the terrace, a kind and careful service, a special chef and you have the perfect location for your meal, just enjoy!

Excellent restaurant. Food is very high quality and very good menu quality and staff are professional and courteous.

It was ok.

Food was delicious but not sure if it was worth the price. Ive tasted the same dishes in other restaurants with lower prices that had a better taste.

My favorite ever❤️

Unfortunately, less than expected.The place is nice and the staff are kind, BUT the food was unpalatable.I’ve visited the other branch in Jeddah many times. The experience was Satisfy.I hope Riyadh branch works hard to improve their food.

Very clean and nice atmosphere the service is a 10/10 very attentive, the food was great but we didn’t try lots of options overall it was a good experience I recommend it.

Oh god everything was AMAZING!the service is one of the best I ever had in Riyadh, super friendly, quick and always around with big smile ✨the food is really authentic and flavorful, their menu includ information on each dish whter it contain dairy, gluten, nuts, meats,AND YES THEY HAVE VEGAN OPTIONS 🌱one of the highlights in my visit was the watermelon mojito 🍉🍹 FANTASTIC!the manager is around welcoming and answering all the questions and taking feedback on the food.really enjoyable experience overall, thank you.

Excellent place!!Amazing staff and service

Quite disappointing, the spaghetti pomodoro was served in a soapy dish which transferred the taste to the food

Great atmosphere! fantastic service by Neil. Thank you

Closest as can be to real Italian cuisine.

I think this is the best Italian restaurant I have been tried in Riyadh so farThe food is outstanding and delicious and it feels original and passionately cookedOne of the exceptional dishes we ordered is the salad that has gout cheese in it . The ravioli pasta was great alsoThe staff was professional and welcoming especially the waiter Cristian who helped us in choosing from the very sophisticated and complex names of Italian dishesWe will definitely visit this restaurant again and again and we will try another dishes and we strongly recommend it for Italian food lovers
