Belcanto, the elegant Italian spot at Dubai Opera, offers more than just dinner
If dinner and a show are your idea of a good night out, you'll want to know about Belcanto.
Perched atop the iconic Dubai Opera in the heart of Downtown, this refined Italian restaurant offers fine dining with a side of artistic performances. That is to say, you'll enjoy a multi-sensory, stylish and a theatrical dining experience.
Inside, 1920s-style spotlight-stealing chandeliers hang from the ceiling, the floor is a velvet red, candlelight flickers and on the stage at any given time in the evening, there's blues, jazz or classical fusion being belted out by international and regional musicians.
Open daily for dinner, Belcanto offers more than just plates of pasta.
It's a carefully orchestrated experience, where the food sings, the décor dazzles and the music fills the air every evening courtesy of the in-house band and visiting guest artists.
The premier venue draws in many top global celebrities, thanks to its exceptional ambiance, top-notch service and gourmet cuisine.
While you're soaking up the music, the elegance and the vibes, we recommend you try the decadent homemade trofie with pesto and burrata.
Chef Fabrizio Lusenti's menu takes a refined approach to Italian classics. Having worked in MICHELIN-lauded hotels across Europe, Russia and the US, the Italian chef really knows what the crowds crave.
With an emphasis on creativity, seasonal ingredients and incredible presentation, you can rest assured that your time here will be well spent.
From the moment you're seated to the final note of the night, it's all about drama, detail and deliciousness.
What's more, it's an ideal spot to celebrate special occasions with loved ones. The brand has a solid reputation catering to private events, weddings, gala dinners and corporate functions.
Whether you're marking a special occasion or simply in the mood to treat yourself, Belcanto delivers an experience that feels both indulgent and inspiring.
